Restaurant Nepita — Restaurant in Paris

Cancelled our dinner two hours before we were supposed to turn up. Shame on you!! And this when the dinner was already paid for. While we were not able to come to Paris due to my wife being sick (and the hotel not accepting for us to postpone everything) we were hoping that our friends were going to be able to enjoy the dinner that we had already paid for. However, we were not even given the chance to have them do so as Nepita decided to cancel our reservation (WHICH WAS ALREADY PAID FOR) two hours before. They didn't call us to enquire if we were going to show up and when we tried to respond to the generic email we were sent, we got error messages as this was sent from a NoReply email.

Les assiettes sont sans intérêt, pas de peps ou d’originalité, et très peu copieuses (le crudo de bar en entrée ce sont 5 minuscules tranches), l’artichaut est surcuit malgré une mousse de pistache qui est le seul élément positif à retenir de notre expérience. Au comptoir où nous sommes installés, on entasse des montagnes de vaisselles sales à côté de moi pendant le repas. Après 5 demandes, une bière pas fraîche finit par nous parvenir. On redonne 3 fois la commande pour qu’on soit enfin entendus. Et je ne vous parle pas des toilettes qui n’avaient pas été nettoyées le matin alors que le restaurant est situé dans un hôtel 5 étoiles !!! Rarement eu d’aussi mauvaise surprise et pourtant je teste très fréquemment de nouveaux...
