After a 1/2 hour of no food we needed to get to the ferry and told him to make it a takeaway. Still no food so we decided to leave 20€ on the table to more than cover the couvert and catch the ferry. As we were walking away he called to us that he had our food. We went back and were appalled at the bill. He didn’t even look at what we ate and charged us for everything and the prices were ridiculous even for a tourist trap. They also charged us a 3€ takeaway fee!! We also ordered fries which he never even acknowledged were missing but didn’t charge us for those. We paid the exorbitant charge of 46€ and wanted to pay cash. Then he said he didn’t have change for 20€ so we charged it. We left with the waiter being completely unapologetic and rude. SAL is nothing but a tourist trap and the...

Very average at best - the guys seemed far more interested in getting people into the restaurant than serving those inside with two of them standing watching the one waitress with multiple tables waiting to order.
