Were it not for the fact that one of our group had chosen this restaurant for their birthday treat, my wife and I would happily have left this restaurant prior to the main courses being served. What went wrong? Well what went right would be quicker.

Lets just say that we turned down a booking a Mikano because they couldn’t seat us until 8pm. If only we’d known that a 7pm booking at the Royal Thai would equal a serving time of 8.45pm. The restaurant seemed completely understaffed, and no apology was made to those seated, whilst those staff that were serving, dealt with a continual stream of takeaway orders.

Oh and when the food did turn up, in dribs & drabs, one dish was swimming in oil, smelt like week old chip fat and had to be sent back.

My wife is 6months pregnant and had requested her main come quickly, as she would struggle anyway with waiting for dinner after 7pm, by 8.30 she was reaching for sweets in her handbag, with her blood/sugar level starting to crash.

Avoid like the plague, but if you must, only use their takeaway service.
