Clearly not a good idea to go there in August. Not enough staff and too many customers. Service was appalling:

• had to wait for half an hour for our drinks, because they dropped the tray.. drinks were warm instead of cold (not pleasant on a warm August evening)
• appetisers were left on a tray next to our table, and sat there for so long that we eventually had to help ourselves,
• main courses did not come together. The second batch we had to help the guy carrying the tray, because the waiter was nowhere to be seen.
• bottle of wine (ordered at the beginning) came just before desert
• we had to order water several times, because it never made it on time to the table
• having realised that the service was beyond poor, the management graciously offered one coffee to compensate for any inconvenience
• to top it all, had to ask for the bill twice while the restaurant was deserted.
• food quality was just average.

maybe we drew the short straw but clearly not an experience i am eager to repeat.
