  Very romantic place, great artwork. Our waiter was not very knowledgeable about the history of the chateau or the artwork

  After reading much about the place on #Timeout and #TripAdvisor, the place being recommended as a romantic place, I booked a table on Friday night as a birthday dinner for my wife. The attendant on the phone was very much friendly and booked accordingly. For the birthday, it was mentioned that a small cake in which birthday wish for my wife will be written and, I thought we are all set to go. As we reached the place, it looked surreal with the lighting and mood. The place wasn’t buzzing that much and there were two tables with approx. 5 each were occupied (If it is that recommended it should be considering it was a weekend). We sat inside as it was a bit hot and was promptly given the menu. From here on the service took a dip as we had to call up the staff to attend for our order. The order was mozzarella sticks, pasta and grilled chicken with mushroom sauce. After few minutes, the waitress came back and mentioned mozzarella stick was not available (surprised they were not aware off). The starter was changed to deep fried prawns. Meanwhile bread was served with butter and there were only 2 bread sticks and 2 bread roll (I mean come one). Starter was served without plates (I think they expected to eat from our hand). I had to call out 2-3 times to get plates. Due to such inattentiveness, I wanted to see the manager and was told that there is no such, and the place is managed by the owner who already left – surprise (it was only 10.00 pm). I felt a disaster and asked about the cake, surprise, no one mentioned anything to the staff though the staff knew about the booking (such unprofessionalism). I had to make them realize that this is a birthday dinner and I won’t let it getting ruin more. It was mentioned that chocolate fondant will be given with birthday written on the plate (I had to settle that). When the main course was served, mushroom sauce was served in a small jug I thought it must have been picked from a kid play set. Prawns were tasty and main course was average. Chocolate fondant with a candle was served as the staff sang the birthday wish. The fondant was of smaller size and over cooked and the chocolate sauce was very less inside. In a restaurant the main thing is service and the food taste which was totally missing from there, ambience cannot be substitute for good service food. The staff looked over worked and not attentive – management really need to look into this as it is only the hype or ambience if they are selling, the low turnout shows; Conclusion: Overhyped, overpriced, average food, inattentiveness and overworked staff: Avoid if you want to have a memorable night
