No one communicated the delay or apologised until we started complaining. I was even told that 1hr 40 minutes wasn't long to wait for 3 starters and 3 mains - great attitude!<br /><br />Waitress also forgot to give us a wine list, ice bucket for wine or amuse bouche we will definitely not be going back.<br /><br />Word of warning if you get offered a table at 8pm - find another restaurant. We were not impressed & Mr L'Orange was pretty furious with the waitress & didn't seem to think there was a problem and didn't want to apologise.<br /><br />There was some kind of disclaimer on the menu that new kitchen staff were on board and to be patient - hello, this is supposed to be a good restaurant?! <br />Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06568017682091251673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011397583926050775.post-9185275880253701892012-09-28T16:06:45.575+10:002012-09-28T16:06:45.575+10:00Latest Update - we went for dinner at the Rocking...Latest Update - we went for dinner at the Rocking Horse Lounge last week for my birthday. The restaurant is looking lovely and there is still that nice cosy feel, but be warned the prices have gone up. <br /><br />Expect to pay around $30 for a main and $20 for an entree, desserts are $12 - $14. The restaurant is also licensed now and whilst the wine list is reasonable and offers a good selection it means no more cheap byo nights.<br /><br />We had some stand out dishes but also some fairly ordinary ones so for the price point the Rocking Horse Lounge isn't offering the same value as before - shame.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06568017682091251673noreply@blogger.com
