We have been visiting this restaurant regularly since it first opened as we have a holiday home close by. Our visit in June was awful. Despite making a reservation a week in advance, the restaurant had clearly overbooked and the service was appalling. In fact,...we entered the restaurant at the same time as another couple who were seated near to us. They had completed their 3 course meal before we were even brought a starter. It was almost impossible to get any of the waiting staffs attention and when querying this when leaving I was told by a waiter that they were overbooked and under staffed. As I have always enjoyed eating here and the food is always good. I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and returned last night with family. Again, I made the reservation a week in advance and were seated on the outside terrace part of the restaurant. Perhaps this was our mistake as again it was impossible to get the attention of any staff to order. The food took an hour and a quarter to arrive and again service was shocking. When entering the restaurant to pay the bill (this was the only way I could have paid it as I couldn’t get anyones attention to actually bring the bill to our table) I again raised my disappointment over the service to be told again how it was down to the owner who keeps overbooking and under staffing. I could see that extra tables have been placed in surfers bar area to accommodate extra diners however having dined when tables used to be placed on the lower ground level outside also this never used to be a problem and so it is such a shame that the service levels are so poor now as the food is always great. Sadly will not be returning again and recommend that others do not waste an evening dining here as there are so many amazing restaurants on the island where there are actually enough staff on hand so you can order and be served appropriately.More
