"I am not usually one for writing reviews but the following needs to be said. We booked based on the reviews here on Trip Advisor and were so disappointed that we left after the anti pasti. The dining room had all the atmosphere of a school dining room, even the distant temples could not compensate. The service was sub standard from outset and only deteriorated. This is not a restaurant it is a hotel dining room and not even a very stylish one. The wine list had so many options crossed out that it looked as if they hadn’t restocked in a while. Despite asking recommendations the staff only offered the white they had open so I decided not to go with a bottle. The food was not cheap but based on reviews I expected good things and being in sight of the sea I went with the seafood anti pasti to be followed by tuna. The seafood was poor, not fresh and the prawns were so far gone they had the texture of paste. As a result of the quality of the food on top of the poor room and poor service we left the table and went to reception to register our dissatisfaction. Even after such feedback they still charged for what we had had although with a discount. Now, writing this within half an hour of leaving, I have already developed stomach cramps and sweats. I can tell I have an evening of unpleasantness ahead… the classic dodgy prawn! This is not the experience I expected from the Academy of Good Taste and cannot recommend it in any way. If in search of a good restaurant the advice from this trip keep scrolling!"
