3 adults & 2 kids dined here tonight. Firstly, the waiter couldn't answer even one question that we asked! Every time we had questions about a meal or a menu listing, he had no answer for us and had to go check for us, gave us wrong info on flavour of kids pizza (told us one thing then came back to say no sorry), couldn't tell us if Fanta was a drink they offered, couldn't explain numerous ingredients on menu including what the fish was in the meals we ordered!
2 adults ordered the 'beer battered fish with chips & calamari'. Both were served with salad which consisted of mushy cucumber, squashed old, once-diced tomato which all looked like it came from the back of a fridge about a week ago! I asked for a replacement (as they apparently thought serving soggy salad was alright) where I received a bowl of a 'different' salad- dumped onto my table by the female manager!
Next, I started eating my awfully over-fried battered fish & calamari rings and the fish was not fresh (super fishy smell and awful mouth-feel). Then just when I think this enough is enough, I find a black short n' curly hair which I think looked like a 'pubic hair' on my plate!!!!! Saying I wasn't impressed was an understatement!
I showed the female manager who didn't apologise and organised me a new serve of the fish n calamari rings. This was delivered by the uneducated male waiter, who basically threw down my plate in front of me without saying a word! I was shocked and so was my sister who saw it!
The replaced meal was not as over-fried, but the fish was simply not fresh and was disgusting to eat! I was with others at the table who can verify what I'm saying here. We told the manager that we weren't paying for the 2 fish meals and she never said a thing, no apology, no nothing.. She couldn't have cared less!
Never eating there again! Don't bother!

Approximate cost: $25
