So disappointed by this restaurant, and for the second time, which means there will never be a return visit. The setting is the best thing about it--beautiful open colonial space, like something out of the (privileged) past. The first time we went, last year, we...were underwhelmed by the service. What is more annoying than being treated like ghosts at a very expensive food emporium? The meal was just okay, certainly not worth the price, but the management finally apologized and said they were just extremely busy--it was very crowded--and short-staffed. So, this year, we gave them the benefit of the doubt and returned. The restaurant was conspicuously not crowded this time, but we were placed in an out-of-the-way corner, far from civilization, close to the kitchen. Odd in itself. The meal was astonishingly bland. Our appetizers were forgettable. My main plate of fish was overcooked--even dry and crusty. My husband could not even finish his fish main course, said it was tasteless, his highest condemnation. The waiter was absurdly inept, without the Fawlty Towers charm. He neglected to keep pouring wine (at 47 euros a main dish you'd expect at least that). Once when we singled to him to come over and pour he only did so for my husband, not for the others at the table. He seemed distracted at best, but certainly indifferent. And on top of all that the service was incredibly slow. Consider it took us three hours to get served two courses each on a non-busy night. We passed on dessert because by that time the whole experience was a sour one and no sweet third course was going to make us feel better. Besides, we'd still be sitting there. Management had an air of condescension last year. Same this year. This is such an uncharacteristic experience for us who are frequent, annual visitors to this island, and always find the restaurant staff in Grand Case establishments friendly and welcoming. Not here. Nor is this about the price. We don't mind paying, but when you are treated poorly, largely ignored, and served such disappointing dishes you have to wonder what you are, indeed, paying for. I am not recommending this place to anyone, ever, but am always interested in enthusiastic reviews by others who have had a quite different experience. Good for them. Bad for us.More
