Went to this restaurant with 3 others after getting a voucher deal for tapas. We were expecting only the tapas as that is what is written on our vouchers (plus a glass of wine each) so imagine our surprise when the waitress insisted we pick a main also as that is included. We questioned this 3 times no less, and asked for our vouchers back to read them (they had hastily taken then away as soon as they saw them). We checked again "Are you sure mains are included?

We are happy for the tapas as that sounds like a lot already and sounds like good value" She insisted it's all part of it. Imagine our delight (sarcasm) when we get a bill for over $200 where, you guessed, the mains were listed on the bill. When we discussed with the senior staff, he shrugged his shoulders and said the waitress is new, gone home already and there is nothing he can do as we had ordered mains. He made it sound our fault, even though we checked 3 Times whether this was correct or not. He was rude, the staff were unhelpful, and I was embarrassed that I took international guests to a restaurant that ripped us off.

I will not be going back to this place again and would anyone visiting here with a voucher to stay away. They Will try to rip you off...Save your money and don't get burnt like we did.
