We had dinner in this restaurant last night. I ordered a fish dish and half way through the meal I realised I was eating raw fish. It was disgusting as chargrilled on the outside to make it look cooked but still partly frozen on the inside. The waitress apologised and offered a replacement but I refused as by that time I felt disgusted and worried that I might get ill. There was also liquid fish blood underneath my chips and salad wich unfortunately I ate without realising. Management didn’t offer any explanation and no one came to talk to me. They took the fish off our bill, as they should have, but no other apology was uttered. I’ve had a terrible night and I’m feeling very sick today and had to cancel my work appointments with clients. Avoid!...
