"We chose this place as it's web site was in English. A nice mixed menu, which conveniently is available inside in English. But the first problem is having an English menu but then a waiter that doesn't understand English. Once the awkward ordering was out of the way we waited about 5 or so minutes for the drinks to arrive two small local beers and a fanta. Our party of three ordered mains of flank steak and 2 x salads. We waited about 30 40 minutes for the mains, in this time we had finished our drinks but had had no contact from the waiting staff to order additional drinks until the mains were served. The flank was probably the chewiest most tasteless steak I've tried. I couldn't finish it. It came with a small portion of fries and nothing else but a pot of bbq sauce. No salad or vegetables. What was strange was that the two salads ordered for the other two in our party didn't arrive at the time. The first salad arrived arrived 2 minutes after the steak, and the second salad another 3 minutes later. The salads had mixed reviews the breaded chicken was described as very processed, and while one didn't like it, one did. We asked for mayonnaise and we were told that this was extra! A one euro charge for this condiment. The service was slow, and for a restaurant that has an English web site and English menus the ordering process was a chore. We skipped dessert based on our experience. 3 mains, 4 small beers and 1 fanta cake to €55.50."
