So I read reviews about this place on opentable and it seemed to be alright, made a reservation and went to the restaurant on time(615). Arrived and the restaurant wasn't full, maybe 60% capacity. Hostess greets us, who I thought was a customer because she was in street clothes and seemed like she was going outside for a smoke. We were sat down immediately. Then came the worse part, within the next 10 minutes, not a single waitress or waiter or anyone came to the table for water or any service, at the 13 minute mark I said fuck it and we walked. I gave a chance for every single staff to walk by at least once but none of them acknowledged us. Mind you I'm not a picky person nor have I ever done this.

Went to BT Cafe for dinner instead. 9/10
Service was great as usual. Girl got black pepper lamb and rice, it was cooked a little less than she wanted, but it was flavorful and tender. I got baked seafood with coconut on rice, came with plenty of squid, shrimp(big ones not small) and fish. Come home completely satisfied
I tried BT cafe last weekend. IMO, it's not that great but the portions are huge for $7. I had seafood curry which came with a creamy soup.

Maybe I should have order something else, my experience is 6/10. Plenty of better cafe places in Richmond.
