Ordered schnitzel with fries. Fries were mediocre but OK-ish, but the schnitzel turned out to be deep fried, and for way too long. Turns out the timer was set for 90 seconds too long, and they offered to make me a new schnitzel, but pan fried, which they did. Took them quite a while and it wasn't very busy so it could have been a lot faster. The new schnitzel looked excellent, like a schnitzel is supposed to look.

This degrades in our opinion the whole concept....

Update: It seems strange that you would want me to follow this up. If you would do it, then here's some more info about the noise: Due to machinery (possibly juicers) in the premisses, I was convinced that at one point a motorcycle was driving around in the restaurant. We had a laugh about it soon after, but at the very moment it was somewhat...
