I was there a few weeks ago but decided not to post my critical review of it for dear or losing points or worse.
Fortunately I found a community no one from AC or Aeroplan visits so I feel safe sharing the review here:
This restaurant leaves much to be desired. To start I was charged a seating fee just to enter the restaurant and have a look at the menu. There were plenty of options,a definite plus! However when I went to order I had to wait over an hour for the server to take my order. Worse still most of the items on the menu weren't available. I ended up having the avocado sausage with sauerkraut. Equally worrisome, I was told there will be a food order fee of 10 Euros and a table delivery fee of 15 Euros. I looked at the wine and desserts and told they weren't available due to capacity controls, whatever that is. Our food never came and when I asked the server was told someone forgot to tell the cook. They ended up serving me a spinach salad with goulash. They did however give me a 10 Euros voucher for my trouble. I've been to many restaurants in the world and never encountered anything like this.

Does this restaurant close frequently - without notice - at times when its customers may want to be eating there, including sometimes when they're in the middle of their meals?
