The Refinery,
it was very good... a year ago, in 2021.
Now there is nothing refined, from the boss to the waiters.
The waiter asks us to order the appetizer without giving us the drink menu.
Broken chair, wet tables and feet in water after the downpour.
The boss's insistence on ordering a rib of beef for 60 EUR.
Does not offer wine with the meal.
Doesn't know how to hold his place with customers, inappropriate comments.
Gets involved in parent-child exchanges.
Imposes dishes on his customers.
So-called gluten-free restaurant, but no gluten-free bread offered.
Gluten-free desserts almost non-existent.
The waiters begin to arrange the chairs and tables on the terrace with anti-theft cables in the presence of the remaining customers.
The boss asks us to pay when the desserts arrive, to be able to close his cash register and wants to present us with the bill.
Does not offer coffee or digestives.
Then later, waits impatiently to be asked for the bill.
In the meantime, he gets impatient tapping the menus on a table.
Then in the end, refuses to bring us the bill back to the table and insists that we go to the counter.
Refusal on our part to travel and pay without having seen the details of the bill.
In the end, we pay and leave disappointed mainly by the unprofessional attitude of the owner of the establishment who seems not to be local.
Superb dining experience thank you for adapting the menu brilliantly regarding my gluten intolerance.
Small downside on the quenelle beef tartare. A little too salty and a little too spicy for my taste...
We will come back for sure ☺️
I loved it, there were no salads on display but a whole assortment of sandwiches, paninis etc. except that I can't, I am gluten intolerant and the team immediately reacted by offering several salads, they were very considerate and for 7.50 per salad, I was surprised by the maousse salad, wow!! Chic then. Thank you, thank you for finally allowing me to eat without feeling rejected..
