    The gluten-free penne pesto pasta had to be sent back to the kitchen with a lack of pesto and then when returned still didn't have much pesto, plus had macaroni, not penne. Disappointed our guest and she didn't end up eating it, but I was charged for it, which I thought was a little cheeky. We love the restaurant and have never had a meal issue in the past, but this time was disappointing.

    We had a new waitress - been there for 2 weeks - she paid very little attention to our table. Never came to check on our drinks or if we were satisfied with our food. It took about 7 minutes to get hold of her to order a round of drinks and nearly just as long to bring them. The worst was the bill; we were charged for items that we did not have and or requested. Very disappointing considering that we are regular patrons since 2009. New staff should work under supervision.

    Thank you for your feedback, Mr Van Den Munckhof, and for supporting us over the years. We apologise for your experience and totally agree that such incidents are unacceptable. We acknowledge your concerns regarding the attentiveness of your waitress, the delays in service, and especially the incorrect items on the bill. We have taken steps to ensure that our service is not compromised in the future by the introduction of junior staff. We value your long-standing support and sincerely hope to welcome you back for the experience you rightfully expect from us.

    Thank you to Tony for his personal response and the open honest discussion we had. I am pleased that the problem was resolved and am sure that it will not happen again to any future patrons.
