I have only heard positive things about La Tete and was so looking forward to the lunch, but the service was so appalling that even though the food was delicious, the whole experience left us with a bad taste in our mouths. I would have been able to understand if the staff were a little sad on their last day, but the two waitrons that interchangeably served us were actually just quite unfriendly and made us feel like we were an inconvenience even being there. Firstly, it took too long for someone to come and take our drinks order – and only after we had been watching them trying to make eye contact for ages – and then water was slopped into our glasses and our wine bottle unceremoniously dumped into the ice bucket. During the meal very little attention was paid to us, and after we settled the bill it was just taken away with no thank you or goodbye and we saw ourselves out with only a nod from one of the chefs. Very disappointing experience indeed.
