If I could have given this place less than one star, I would've.. My partner and I went to eat there for the first time tonight and we will not be going back.. Both our meals were ordinary at best.. The chips and diane sauce weren't necessarily terrible but the tiniest salad portion we've ever been served in any bistro we've ever been to was dry and sad and browning and awful with no dressing to speak of and unfortunately the worst problem with the actual food was more serious than just taste or quality of ingredients.. Both our schnitzels came out smelling and tasting of fish having obviously been fried in the same oil the kitchen was using to fry seafood which is absolutely a cross contact food safety issue.. And the worst problem of all was that when I brought this up with the staff, the older woman who had taken my order and the pink haired woman who felt compelled to butt into my conversation for seemingly no reason were both so rude and dismissive and when I did eventually access the head chef, he laughed and smirked through informing me that the fact that all the food was fried in the same oil was outside of his control despite my pointing out and his acknowledging that this was both not safe and not true.. Now, just to be clear, we ate the food.. It was paid for and cooked and neither of us actually suffer personally from food allergies.. Supplementary to that neither of us are huge fans of food waste considering people go hungry every single day.. It's just a real shame that our new local club turned out to have such a terrible attitude towards both customer service and food safety... Would not recommend..
