We were the only customer for them for almost an hour sitting and dining their food. There was one probably takeaway order. The restaurant looked pretty empty. This restaurant has been in business for a long time, however over the years some of the food served has lost its taste. The same dish which i used to order before, has no longer the same taste. Some of the food we ordered can be seen in the photo. I would say its okay but nothing great.
