    It was a Wednesday and we went for the 3course special. The food was terrible, we did not enjoy any of the meals. Compared to when we go to black on a weekends, they always deliver the best. However i was very disappointed with the food this time.

    Unfortunately, my team didn't not have a good review. No chips, no fish, no calamari, no chirozo in stock , long wait for food. And management didn't inform us ahead of time. I order was i correct. Every small portions. Only good thing were the waiters. So sad.
