Service was unprofessional, rude, arrogant and unapologetic. My wife and I did not spend more than 5 minutes in the restaurant before we walked out. We have eaten in restaurants in Florence, Siena and other parts of Tuscany, and have never met such appalling service. This restaurant does not live up to the reputation of friendly Italian service and hospitality. We won't be going to this restaurant again or recommending it to any of our friends. We went to Portofino Ristorante instead (better professional and friendly service).
This is part of my website The Folkestone Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when we first moved here sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for favourite places and things, and I know it was a useful resource for those who were moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we always thought it was about to become. My name is not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do get in touch if you have anything to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
