When we came to the restaurant they took out order and delivered our beer. After that nothing happened. After 45 minutes I tried to get eye contact with the waiter but he kept avoiding me.
After 1+ hour I went to the kitchen asking if the food were coming soon. They told me it not coming soon. At that time they had a full restaurant and nobody was eating because no food came out from the kitchen - and no information at all.
If they know they have big problem in the kitchen they need to inform before someone orders. At least they could inform when they knew no food will come out from the kitchen within 1+ hour. They also could have asked if the guest would like to order more beverages after an hour waiting.

They were apologising for taking so long, but honestly it didn't feel that long and it was so worth it.
The food is well presented, perfectly seasoned and plentiful.
We also had a visit from a very cute little kitty who just wanted to play and didn't beg for food.
These boys are doing a great job, and deserve all the support they can get. Make sure you pay them a visit when you go to Gili Air. It's far better than the mediocre tourist fare you'll find...
