Service:
Very casual and laid back. This is a mainly vegetarian restaurant.
Presentation:
There recommendation was a medley 3 different sorts of mushrooms
of which they were entering some sort of prize for. Rather than
cooking the mushrooms in different ways to bring out there own texture
and flavors they were heaped into the same pan and cooked. What
I received was basically mushrooms on toast. Did not bother about
ordering anything else.
Wine List:
They don't have one.
Value for
Money:
I did not even look at the account.
I just knew it was outrageous for mushrooms on toast.
Ambiance:
It has what one may call rustic
enhancements others may call it a dump. If like the majority of
the patrons I saw on that day ( mostly young middle aged mothers
who gave the impression that they all sported fine arts degrees)
the place has charm and character. But I guess to us poor peons
who spend a fortune on good wine and food we are just unenlightened
peasants. However it's still a dump
The feel
good factor:
There wasn't any .
