What a joke. We waited 35 minutes for a drink, so I walked to the bar and asked the barman and was served in seconds.
We ordered food (a chicken dish and Tortillas), and waited almost 2 hours with no sign of our meal appearing. Other tables around us walked in and walked out again in this time, as they did not even get served drinks in over an hour.
A table that had eaten left some food on their plates, and a dog jumped up on their table, to lick all of the plates clean. All this under the waiter's gaze.
The final straw was three other tables, who arrived significantly after us, getting their food ahead of us. We left money for the beers under a glass and left.
To top it all off, the single waiter then chased us down the road to ask us for the beer money. We told him it was on our table. Embarrassing for him.
We then took a tuktuk to the top of Santa Cruz town and found a lovely traditional restaurant which was far far better.
Avoid this "holy" restaurant...

Read moreI asked for the servers opinion on what to order. He didn't give me any recommendations. I ordered the vegetarian rice, beans cooked in coconut milk. It was so bland that I could not taste any garlic or onions that was supposed to be cooked with it. I had to keep adding salt, pepper and chilli sauce just so I could taste some flavour. Was so disappointed. Paid QTL 63 for food with drink. They wanted me to pay service, I refused. It's a shame. They seemed nice when I went in the day before to checkout the menu and with a...
