1/5 Medway F. 1 year ago on Google
After
weeks
of
excitement
about
The
Watling
Rasoi
opening
on
8th
June,
my
husband
and
I
went
here
for
dinner
on
Friday
10th
June.
Although
the
decor
is
lovely
and
modern,
I
made
the
following
observations:
The
service
is
very
poor,
we
were
greeted,
taken
to
our
table
then
served
popadoms
and
we
ordered
our
drinks,
but
we
were
not
given
a
menu
-
we
finished
our
popadoms
then
had
to
ask
for
a
menu
and
our
drinks
again
so
that
we
could
order
our
starters
and
main
courses.
The
starters
eventually
came
-
we
ordered
the
Rasoi
grill
platter
to
share
-
however,
the
malai
chicken
tikka
was
totally
missed
off
our
dish!!
We
ate
our
starter
then
got
a
menu
again
to
read
the
description
and
let
them
know
-
the
malai
tikka
was
then
sent
to
us
with
our
main
courses.
Luckily
I
took
a
pic
of
the
dish
in
advance
for
Instagram.
For
our
mains
we
ordered
a
Rasoi
Raja
Rani
which
was
a
chefs
special
dish
which
was
meant
to
include
lamb
tikka,
lamb
mince,
chicken
and
mushrooms
all
in
one
dish
with
a
shot
of
flaming
Sambuka!!
We
also
added
a
mushroom
rice
and
garlic
nan.
Unfortunately,
once
again,
half
of
our
dish
was
missing!!
what
was
served
was
a
lamb
curry
with
lamb
mince
but
there
were
no
chicken
and
mushrooms!!
I
called
the
waiter
over
and
highlighted
that
there
were
two
items
missing
from
the
dish,
he
went
to
the
kitchen
to
ask
and
came
back
15
minutes
later
to
tell
me
that
the
chef
didn’t
know
there
was
meant
to
be
mushrooms
and
chicken
in
the
dish!!!
There
was
no
offer
to
replace
the
dish,
in
fact
the
waiter
was
rude
and
told
me
to
be
patient
as
the
restaurant
was
only
open
for
the
third
day
running!!
Although
we
did
not
get
what
we
ordered,
the
food
we
were
served
was
tasty,
however
due
to
the
lack
of
drinks
and
service,
our
first
experience
was
ruined.
I
was
annoyed
that
the
waiter
was
rude
to
me,
in
earshot
of
other
diners,
so
I
called
the
owner
over
to
express
my
disappointment
-
he
reduced
the
main
dish
as
we
only
received
half
of
it,
then
when
we
paid
the
bill
we
realised
that
he
had
added
3
extra
drinks
to
the
bill!!!!
Absolutely
outrageous,
when
I
calculated
the
bill
again
he
then
refunded
what
he
had
overcharged.
Overall,
The
Watling
Rasoi
has
a
lot
of
potential
but
the
staff
need
to
drop
their
egos,
the
waiters
need
to
be
more
attentive
to
menus
and
drinks,
and
they
need
to
double
check
the
food
before
it
leaves
the
kitchen.
In
addition,
they
need
to
reduce
the
number
of
tables
by
2
in
order
to
ensure
diners
are
not
so
close
that
they
are
unable
to
have
a
conversation
without
those
on
the
next
table
hearing.
On
a
final
note,
as
the
food
was
flavoursome,
we
will
be
back
to
give
it
another
try
in
a
few
weeks
time
in
the
hope
that
the
waiters
would
have
settled
in
to
a
better
rhythm.
