Aviv

My parents booked a table here for us to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary and although the meal was an experience it was not the one they expected. It was terrible.

We had to send back a melon starter as it was so under ripe you could not cut it with a knife. Also returned were two main courses so overly salty that they were inedible. Puddings fared a little better with the sticky toffee pudding being perfectly average but the tart tatin not being freshly made but being reheated in the microwave was a disaster.

Service was terrible and numerous complaints were made, which were all met with derision. No apology was offered by the owner and nor was any adjustment to the bill suggested either.

I don't know about you but £130 for a bill for lunch for 5 adults where 3 dishes were sent back and two more proved inedible and there was no suggestion of an apology seems a bit steep.
