    A night out for dinner with friends on Saturday 8th February 2025 was soured by rude service from the young male German restaurant manager. He was not well informed on wine pairings with our meal selections and was inattentive when we wanted to order desert at which time he became very rude. It was a real shame as the food was of a good standard. This was not the Le Petit Bistro that I remembered several years ago.

    A lovely restaurant but let down by the service. I was provided with my soup but didn’t have a spoon. My wine, I had to top up myself. Knife and fork after entree was required after my partner. It took quite sometime before our order was taken. The food? Amazing! But the service is just as important.
