â Avoid This Overpriced and Overrated âHigh-Endâ Restaurant â
I had an extremely disappointing experience at this so-called fine dining establishment. If youâre considering dining here, be prepared to spend a minimum of three hours, even if youâre the only guestâwhich was my case. Despite the restaurant being empty, service was painfully slow, making the entire experience frustrating and unnecessarily drawn out.
Food Quality: Subpar at Best
The octopus was inedibleâtough, chewy, and overcooked to the point where it was impossible to enjoy. The potatoes were completely flavorless, as if they had never been seasoned at all. For a restaurant that presents itself as fine dining, this lack of quality and attention to detail was completely unacceptable.
Scam-Like Drink Experience
To make matters worse, I was duped into ordering a cocktail of the bartenderâs choice. She conveniently failed to mention that it was one of the most expensive drinks on the menuâif not the most expensive. On top of that, it was incredibly bitter and unbalanced because she went overboard with the orange juice. When I politely asked for a replacement, her response was shockingly rude and condescending. Instead of addressing the issue, she insinuated that I didnât belong in the restaurant and simply couldnât appreciate a drink of this âcaliber.â
Service: Rude and Dismissive
Between the snobbish attitude, dismissive service, and unprofessional staff, I felt completely unwelcome. The waitress barely checked in, acted as if my presence was an inconvenience, and the bartenderâs elitist attitude sealed the deal on this terrible experience.
Final Verdict: Stay Far Away!
This place is wildly overpriced, pretentious, and fails in every way possible. The food is mediocre, the service is beyond rude, and the entire experience is not worth the time or money. If youâre looking for a true fine dining experience, avoid this restaurant at all costsâthere are much better options elsewhere.
đš Save your money and your patience. I wonât be back, and I donât recommend it...
   Read moreRecently attended for an evening of fine dining. The ambience of the restaurant was nice. The service was close to excellent. The food, I cannot rave about. As a vegan and going out for dinner, it may be hard to find the foods that you can eat and enjoy. My wife and I ordered. My wife had her taste buds set on a nice Lobster dinner as advertised in the menu. There was no Lobster. Lobster is still in season, but she had to settle on a steak dinner. Steak was done to her liking and appeared to be a good dinner. Me, on the other hand, I ordered a vegetable dinner as prescribed by the waitresses. They said that would fix me a vegetable dish. Obviously, vegetable are part of every dish, so I thought that this was not a big ask. What they brought me, a large bowl with cooked vegetables. They brought me 4 pieces of sweet potatoes, 2 pieces of Cauliflower, 4 pieces of carrot and 4 pieces or Asparagus and 4 dabs of hummis. This was a grand total of about 3 dollars worth of vegetables and hummus. I get it, this is fine dining and you do expect to pay more for food to get the ambience and service. I was charged 95 dollars, EC for this plate. That works out to be about 50 dollars Canadian. So for 3 dollars worth of vegetables, 50 dollars Canadian, 38 dollars American?. Definitely not worth the service and the ambience and a vegetable dish that you could see the entire bottom of the bowl. St Lucia, you can have this dining establishment. For me, I will not be shy about my food orders anymore. I will expect more in the future from any establishment I attend. It's vegetables, they are considered a side dish. Provide a worthy meal, even if it is...
