TLDR: The quality of service leaves a lot to be desired.
I barely know where to begin. The new wait staff need to copy out the orders from the menu, and will not hesitate to take the menu card from you whilst you are still perusing it. And frankly, they are incapable of even copying things out correctly (wrote " toast with "not" butter despite explaining thrice that it was "nut" butter that we wanted and not toast without butter). I had to write out most of the order to ensure that it got communicated correctly because there had been an instance of incorrect communication for an order in the past.
The drinks and the dishes come out asynchronously; a coffee and a dish first - a smoothie that was ordered along with the coffee arrived after the breakfast. The coffee came but we needed to ask again for sugar, which was forgotten (or not understood - not sure which) and eventually we'd to pick up the sugar jar from an adjoining empty table. The water was served but without the glasses for which we needed to ask again. One would barely have begun digging into a dish when the waiter will prompt you with an obtrusive: "Next, sir!?".
This place could definitely do with some competent wait staff, the lady and the new appointee are untrained and painful to deal with, often not understanding basic instructions / questions from customers.
There is only one competent waiter, who is often assigned to tables with foreign clientele, whilst their countrymen are stuck with a "Grin and bear it" sloppy service. On speaking with the manager, the excuse was that the wait staff is new. If that's the case, train him properly (have him shadow an experienced waiter) before having him deal with customers.
When we said that we were done and didn't need anything else, and if we could please have the bill, the bill wouldn't arrive for a good 10 minutes. Eventually, we had to get up, list out our order and pay at the counter. The manager Gokul didn't even have the courtesy to comp us for our troubles.
The place is overhyped and for this quality of service, it had better shut down.
