                                      I went for lunch with my daughter. They were quite busy, we ordered tuna nicoise and a minute steak. Firstly the steak went back as it was rare, as I started my nicoise I found a dark short hair buried in my salad. They changed my meal but the wait was ridiculous. By the time I had asked where it was my daughter had finished her return steak and I was finally delivered an overdone , un seasoned chewy bit of tuna that was inedible . A great shame and very disappointing. They didn’t charge me for the tuna but that’s not why we went there. Ended up not having lunch.
