“It's very quiet and the food is acceptable, you can go!”

“The worst experience of my life. Starting with the manager who treated the guests with a tremendous lack of respect and ethics. The food was awful: rice without oil and poorly cooked, a raw chicken leg—the children vomited everything. The food was expensive and badly prepared, a sign that they take the oil and chicken home with them. To top it all off, a waiter stole a customer's wallet and they had to call the police. Then he mysteriously reappeared, a sign that they were all in on it....”
