Bloodhound Espresso — Restaurant in Sydney

Revising my five star review based on a second visit. Our order for three people included two of the same dish but only one came. One of us was left without food the entire time the others of us finished our meal. We were told we wouldn't be charged for one round of coffees - the fairer course would have been not to charge for the meal that didn't arrive. I left and saw I was charged for the coffees. The meal was surprisingly and sadly bland. Disappointing experience and a shame.

Response equally disappointing. Just add salt and pepper because the food is otherwise bland is a great tip. 8 minute delay is just dishonest - it took about 15 after it was raised, which in turn was 10 minutes after it was supposed to arrive, by which point each other person had finished their meal.

Pro tip - leave the salt for your food not your...

Strong Flat white?" The true definition of a local. If you live nearby and aren't coming here for your coffee everyday....what...

Nice place, food is fine, but man! Do something with that looooong waiting :/ Today I had to leave without breakfast, because the waiter didn’t even come. And also, I don’t get the idea of serving some guests with water and some not? Does everybody have to ask for that? This absolutely ruins the impression. #facepalm

To answer Matts question: I have visited the place twice. First day I was a “lucky dog”, because I got my ordered breakfast (but not the water as the other guests). I have waited pretty long also that day, but ok, the place was a bit busy. Anyway - I have waited ages for the flat white. The day after there were 6 people when I visited. And nobody came to my table at all. I am sorry to write this, trust me, but the service really...
