| 11-02-2008 : marknic97 : my last experience of this restaurant was not a pleasant one.
I took friends who had flown in from the UK and were only in Perth for 3 days to Fishy Affair.
I had eaten there previously and enjoyed the evening.
However, the 2/2/08 was probably the most embarassing time I have ever had.
After singing the praises of the restaurant my friends were looking to a fresh seafood meal but ended up having to eat beef.
To start with when we were seated the waiter left and ignored us for 20 minutes, only after I personally walked to the bar asking for drinks did the barmaid summon someone to assist us.
We asked the waiter what the specials were, only to be told, "it's my first day, I do not know"
On ordering 3 out of for fish courses that we ordered were not available, and basically the only thing available in what is supposed to be one of Perth's premier fish restaurants was beef.
Given that we were hungry, obviously we ordered this and it duly arrived a lump of beef with a slice of something,,, hard to describe, hard tasteless and inedible. However, no side dishes of vegetables were served.
If this was not bad enough my friends attempted to pay for the meal using their Australian Dollar travellers cheques only to be refused.
I eventually paid on my visa card, not only did I 'not' receive a discount for poor service, I actually got charged a 2% surcharge for paying with a card.
Be warned this restaurant is not what it used to be. They appear to have no interest in customer service and the food is not good enough for the prices they are charging.
They do not even reply to emails, so there is little point in complaining, they do not seem to care.
