Visited here while staying close by for a gig. Fancied a curry so looked online, but walking past saw their Happy Hours Menu which was ideal, so booked a table!
When we got there, there was only one other couple there so extremely quiet which...meant the atmosphere was a bit odd. We were given menus, but no offer or mention of the Happy Hours Menu being available, which was what we went for. So we had to ask and then be brought different menus - If you're going to offer something, at least then actually offer it to people when they come in.
The food was good, but considering there was only two tables in, it should have been hot and it wasn't, which was dissapointing.
My biggest frustration was the staff and how the held themselves. It's marketed as almost a bit of an upper market restaurant, but one waiter who served us just seemed to get a little too familiar and have off conversations with customers. Talking about his divorce and the bank taking his money from him when they shouldn't... It was just too much and so loud. While he was talking to the other couple, we had to listen to the whole thing! He then proceeded to have some more unprofessional conversations towards the kitchen and bar, but again at the top of his voice so we could hear him swearing and telling inappropriate stories. Really ruined the mood for what should have been a nice romantic dinner.
When we wanted our plates cleared and to pay so we could head off, we were literally then ignored by the staff. Sat politely trying to catch someone's eye which never really came so I had to attempt to go up to pay before they finally realised we were still waiting.
All in all, it was a spoiled meal with the intrusive, loud staff member so wouldn't visit again when back in Birmingham.More
