    15 on Orange has clearly run downhill. The combination of an unstocked buffet at breakfast time, painfully slow service, appalling food hygiene (with defensive staff), and dirty facilities is inexcusable. The staff's dismissive attitude, especially regarding the hair in our food, was the final insult. This was supposed to be a celebration. Instead, it was stressful and unpleasant. We will never return – not for breakfast, not for dinner, not ever. Save your money and your special occasions: Stay away.

    A special Shout out to Goldy. He is a very patient waiter and nice one. Hopefully I will make a turn again at the restaurant just to be served by him. I felt like a princess, him picking up my jacket for me and making sure that we are good every 10mins.Best Service.
