    Nobody offered to take our coats. One glass of champagne was flat / served from nearly empty bottle. Loud and disruptive couple sere sat next to us and caused unease. Food was ok but not great.
    Mei UmeResponded on October 23, 2024
    Dear Ross, I'm so sorry to hear that your recent visit to Mei Ume did not meet your expectations. My sincere apologies that nobody offered to take your coat when you arrived. This is highly unusual, and I believe this may have been due to one of our colleagues covering the host stand when you arrived whilst our usual host was assisting another guest. I'm also sorry to hear that the Champagne was flat, and that the couple next to you were loud and disruptive. We do encourage you to raise issues such as this next time, to give us a chance to rectify the issues immediately. We'd really like to turn this experience around for you, to restore your faith in Mei Ume. Please reach out to me directly, either via email or through OpenTable Kind regards, Annie Hu-Thornton Restaurant Manager

    Dear Lucy, Thank you so much for your review! Whilst I'm delighted to hear your starters were delicious, I'm so sorry to hear that you found the main course to be 'mediocre'.
