"Just a little dishonest! Friends and I stumbled on Bistro 1 and the food was good and price wasn't high. We became sorta regulars until our last visit. We just wanted a drink after a comedy show down the street. When went paid the charge we each wanted to pay our portion. Later to find we paid double charges and duplicate amounts."
"Not Kosher or Halal friendly."
"Been to this restaurant twice before with no issues, visited again on 12th August with great expectations, our order was taken we were given a glass each of water (jug taken away) was given a very small pot of olives (usually given olives & bread) then our main meal arrived, we hadn't had our starter yet when we complained they brought out our starter so we ate them at the same time very poor service."
