To start out with the food and service was great, to begin with. I and 7 colleagues went out for a Christmas Dinner. We got there at 7pm, ordered food around 7:30pm, had a great time and were finishing off our deserts at around 9:20,...we had just received a bottle of wine a little earlier but there were only 3 of us drinking by this time. The restaurant advertised it was open until 10pm so it wasn't an issue, the first thing that happened is that while I was distracted, my wine glass was taken away, when I went inside to ask for another I was told that I could borrow a glass but only for 2 minutes, took the glass and decided to overlook that comment. A couple of minutes later another young girl came to the table to say they had called last orders at 9:30 (which was fine as we were not going to be ordering any more drinks) and that we should pack up and leave, a bit taken aback we explained that we had only recently received the bottle of wine at the table, but given the closing time was 10pm we would finish up before then and then leave, the counter offer suggested to us was to be given paper cups for the wine which we could then walk out of the restaurant with, which was declined. Shortly after a young man came out to say that as last orders had been called at 9:30pm, it was now illegal for us to be on the premises, 10 minutes having passed.....the offer of having the wine poured into paper cups wasn't repeated as this would definitely have been illegal, both on the restaurants side with respect to their liquor license and ours, or at least those of us willing to step out onto St Georges Tce with paper cups of wine, which was no one. How the restaurant handled wanting to go home early (or avoid paying their 3 remaining staff for an additional 30 mins) was extremely disappointing and the 180 degree turn in customer service was astonishing.More
