Lai Rai restaurant reviews




Average rating: 4.6
Great cocktails, nice food and ambience but just 2 stars from me!
We had a reservation for 18.15. Once we had finished the food, we were offered dessert and coffee.
Before the dessert was served on the table… they brought us the bill saying that we have to leave as we were there for 1h and 10’!!!
Basically , the kicked us out!!!
I checked the website and the reservation confirmation email and they do not mention anything about the time you reserve the table for!!!!
Clearly, if there is such policy , it should be mentioned somewhere!!!!
In addition, if they felt we had to leave… they should not have offer desert or coffee… did they expect me to pay additional 20£ to have it as take away?!?!
Unacceptable treating customers these way!!!
