SPECIAL DIETARY REQUIREMENTS? They may be able to be accommodate them, HOWEVER, speak to the manager to confirm. I made the mistake of speaking with a general staff member before booking a table. As a family member is vegan, I checked carefully about food prep before I booked. I was given a very confident response when asking about vegan food prep here: vegan food is cooked separately, fried food (like a side of fries) is only cooked in a fryer with other fries, which is separate to one used for seafood/meat, no animal products in vegan food. Very different story when we arrived. Limited vegetarian options, even less vegan. Breads used contained egg, side of fries cooked in the ONE deep fryer with seafood/meat products. No separate vegan prep as I had been so confidently advised of when booking. I discussed this with the manager, and although very apologetic, confirmed the non-vegan prep of the 'vegan' item that was ordered. A replacement meal was offered and prepared, but I couldn't shake the small lingering doubts. Why do you offer 'vegan' options when they aren't vegan? Other meals ordered were very nice and the wait staff very pleasant.
IN RESPONSE TO CAFE PRIMO'S REPLY: To the person who posted the reply to my review, where YOU there on the night I was? Did you personally speak to me either as the waitress or store manager? If not you must be psychic to question what I have stated. Your reply is almost word for word what I was told on the phone before I booked. But it was NOT how our meal was prepared. Telling me to kindly avoid contradicting you is not on. I know full well what I was...

Ā Ā Ā Read moreTonight I ordered an entree and main of the creamy mushroom pasta. They failed to tell me over the phone that they no longer do entree servings on their entire menu. I arrived to pick up my order, I questioned whether it was entree or not and they said I had an entree. It wasnāt until after I had paid for my meals that they stated āoh we donāt do entree servingsā. The boss who was serving me at the time, then called over the girl who took my order and told her off in front of me⦠And to think that the service was the worst part, it sure wasnāt, the food had no flavour at all in fact it tasted like paper and was extremely dry. Very different to the old owners, not impressed at all and will not be going back to what was once my favourite restaurant to go too. And on top of it all, they had three tables of people dining in the restaurant when itās meant to be peak time for dinner and still it took them over 30 minutes to make two...
