"This is a restaurant we know very well over the years. Traditionally we always go there in December with friends as they do some excellent sea food platters.We arrived this Wednesday evening and was surprised to see the place empty it was 19.30.The first table offered was right beside the door! No thank you got one further in very nice.Ordered a bottle of champagne, and some water. Champagne came the waiter opened it and served it with out asking if we would like taste it first...... let this go!No water.....Ordered sea food platters for the ladies and a gourmet menus for us gents but changed the bisques de homard for fish as explained to the waiter I was allergic to shrimps, lobster etc.Few minutes later he comes back with an amuse bouche offered by the chef, what is is a nice seafood concoction in olive oil.....with shrimps!!!No Water.....Ordered red wine asked for the water.....Comes with the wine and water. This time he opens and let me taste the wine then serves every one, champagne not finished.....Meal comes ladies have the excellent sea food platters, gentlemen get through our different course then it cheese time, the waiter just put down a plate each with a selection 3 cheeses with out asking what type of cheeses we would like.....our friend ask that they change certain cheeses, it was done, grudgingly.Got to the end of the meal, asked if we would like some coffee, said we would but later as we would finish our wine first.Wine finished, waiter hiding......went to find the waiter, once found asked for coffee, he was not happy as he told me he had just cleaned the coffee machine......his problem! 4 coffees.Coffee finished, find the waiter to pay...., keep you fit at least.Paid waiter runs away, as we find our coats and putting them on waiter walks by no helping the ladies to put on the coats and say good bye, he has to clear the table.....Got say we were the only people the whole evening in the restaurant, so he was not rushed off his feet.This was not a cheap meal we left over Sfr500.- so you expect a little bit of service, that we have always had over the years.The certain waiters needs a serious re-training or get an other job preferably where he has nothing to do with the client.Like to leave on a positive note, the decor is fantastic , the food was good as well as a nice selection of wine, plenty of parking, great terrace in the summer.Pity how one waiter can spoil a meal."
