    We’ve always loved this restaurant. But it fell short this time. When I raised this, the manager apologized with words, but the tone was so hostile. The starter bread was too hard to eat, the salmon dried out like it had been waiting in a dry environment. Before this, we were herded in to get seated like sheep - with no explanation why we had to queue for 15 minutes on the stairs! Main courses were tasty. Trifle for dessert sounded gorgeous, but was 12 euro for a very measly and lacking glass container. A real shame. When I tried to pay, no server could be found. At the front desk the manager was brisk and even at that stage tried to overcharge me (accidentally!)
