After many good visits to azzurro we went here this evening for my sons birthday and the food was fine but the wine was awful !! We asked for a bottle of Sauvignon blanc and it wasn’t great . Next time round we asked for a bottle of Pinot Grigio, which was basically the same tasteless wine with the same label saying “Pinot “ instead of Sauvignon Blanc ...after 2 sips I asked do you have another bottle of Pinot or Sauvignon please as this is tasteless and she said I will check, 10 mins later and with the hump ( also after a phone call) she says sorry we do not have another bottle of Pinot or Sauvignon blanc and offered us 2 other types of wine . after 30 +years of eating out this Is the first time I have complained about the wine so that tells you how bad it was . My dad asked for a normanno ( brandy coffee) no / if any brandy in it !! . We paid the bill inc 2 bottles and gratity ( now wishing I had queried that ) I’m not sure if this restaurant has changed hands since last year but the staff are different and no way is it as good as it used to be ....... we will not be...
Read moreWent today, was taken by my parents. Food awful and the constant ding of the microwave was not reassuring in terms of how fresh it was or how it was cooked. Reataurant has a just eat collection driver entering every 10 minutes. Only one table in apart from our table of 6 for most of the evening. A racist and foul mouthed couple, who had no respect for anyone, reminds me of why I moved out of Eltham. The food was not traditional, fresh or good value. The home made lasagne was awful, seafood risotto empty shells and not much seafood, pasta all dry shop brought. The kids pizzas were made as adults ones and my Mums dish was incorrect, all served to us of course and then told that they were mistakes. The single toilet was filthy and had a very old fashioned hand dryer, not covid safe by any way! Shame as Eltham has no decent restaurants, the search continues! They really do know there market though, must be laughing all the way...
Read moreVisited here a few weeks ago, wed actually tried to call a few times before on previous occassions to make a booking and we was told they were fully booked. On the night we actually ate there, we called, was told the same spiel "no were fully booked" and after going back a few times on the phone with the receptionist we were allowed to make a booking for 15 minutes later. Okay fine maybe it's just in super high demand. Turned up and spent two hours there - the place was empty. At prequent points we were the only customers. The starters were okay. The mains were absolutely awful. Overcooked risotto with an almost grotesque amount of food. My husband had the gnocchi which wasnt homemade and not too similar to what we buy at Aldi. For the life of me I don't understand why this place is rated the way it is, especially with the extremely rude phone receptionst let...
