MYCKET god mat.
Över förväntan.
Personalen var trevlig och tillmötesgående, men jag tycker synd om dem, eftersom "bakgrundsmusiken" var så hög att de var tvungna att luta sig ganska nära för att höra vad vi beställde.
Musiken gjorde även att vi hade svårt att föra en vanlig konversation vi vårt lilla bord (3 pers)
Det lät som de körde all musik  på hög volym ,genom en stor subwoofer, utan mellanregister och diskant, Mycket irriterande får oss som jobbat med ljud.
Ljudisoleing i taket eller på annat sätt saknas helt!?!?

VERY good food.
Above expectation.
The staff were nice and accommodating, but I feel sorry for them, because the "background music" was so loud that they had to lean quite close to hear what we ordered.
The music also made it difficult for us to have a normal conversation at our small table (3 people)
It sounded like they played all the music at high volume, through a large subwoofer, without midrange and treble, Very annoying for those of us who work with sound.
Sound insulation in the ceiling or otherwise is completely missing!?!?
