Another "large club" which provided an underwhelming experience.
Goods - obviously the location. It's hard to fail with such a view and the large glass windows provide expansive horizons.
Some of the fish dishes were very good, esp the baked ones. However given they have some very very stiff competition locally, this should be expected.
The Blah - the club setting. Despite the views, they have rammed as many tables as close as possible to the windows. It creates a very noisy, very cramped experience.
Food, not baked fish, is not as good. Burgers were dry and over cooked - quite bad actually. Other options not impressive.
They also delivered the mains over a period of 20 mins - we had 8 in total, and the first person had finished eating before the last had been given food. This is not good.
Wine list @ the bar is good. But in 2023 only having one (not v good) non-alcoholic beer is poor. Most bars have at least 3 options.
The bad..... KENO screens everywhere. You can't get away from them. I don't want to watch a stream of numbers. In fact these ruin the view. Look up and you get an eyeful of Keno. Given the food prices, and that no one eating food in a bistro setting plays this, why have they got these screens.
Staff - staff are terrible. They have no knowledge of the menu. We asked what the special pastas were and got just "penne". Nothing more. Also they are rude, no basic manners.
