Gone downhill!

Had a terrible lunch experience at this caffe earlier this week. There was only one wait staff who did her best but was obviously unexperienced.
We had some issues ordering as we wanted some of the share plates to have 5 pieces rather than the usual 4, once we had ordered, we were advised that one of the dishes was no longer available (I estimate the venue was about 20 - 30 % full). We reordered that then the waitress again came back to advise another dish we had ordered was no longer available.
When we asked for additional paper napkins, we were advised that there were no more napkins. No More Napkins!
The food came out after about 45 minutes, the waitress had advised there would be a 30 minute wait. Two of the dishes did not have the advertised sauce and they had forgotten one dish.
The food was very average - the Saganaki was very tough and tasted old - as soon as it cooled it was inedible. The calamari was average and the fried chicken bites had no ranch sauce, not tossed in anything, and appeared to be frozen fried tenders from the supermarket, of which you got two small pieces per serve for about $17. No siracha sauce for the fries just mayo in cardboard cups which is what we got for the chicken and other dishes.
This Caffe has changed hands and the menu on the website does not reflect that in the restaurant, or the food that is actually delivered to the table.
For the money paid, it is not worth it, although we did have our bill reduced as we complained about the chicken and the saganaki, both of which were removed from the bill. Even with these removed, it was still not good value, and a very very poor meal.

Approximate cost: $150

I have been visiting Chris for over 15 years and during that time have recommended him to many friends and colleagues, none of whom have been disappointed and many who still see him. He is honest in his dealings and never makes you return for endless sessions but tells you to come back if you need to, and often it is simply not necessary. Very highly recommended.

Approximate cost: $80

My husband and I are both huge fans of Nancy and all her staff. We both get excellent remedial massages and I also love to get pampered with spme of the many fabulous services provided by the well trained and delightful staff. I have taken both family and friends to Attitude and everyone has raved about their experience. Definitely worth a visit.
