Google Maps Top complaints
1 hour to receive appetizers, music too loud, 30 minutes to receive water when requested, mediocre food, and to top it off, we decided to leave after almost 2 hours because the main courses had not arrived, and the waitress still added a tip to the bill without telling us, or even letting us choose whether to give one.

A bit dark for my elder eyes and likewise a bit loud for my aging ears but that seems ot be the standard everywhere
