We went to La Romantica in Durbanville on friday 10 June 2011 for a special occation. we waited 10 Minutes for someone to take our drinks order. when my wine arrived it tasted like ice has melted in it, in fact it tasted like water. I ordered the seafood platter for one and there was sand in my mussels and 3 of my prawns were not devained. the deep fried tentacles were inedable and the rest of the seafood has absolutely no taste at all.
I complained to the manager about the sand and vains but all she said was that the mussles wasn't rinsed properly and that the prawns is cultivated and the vains aren't poisonous and then she walked away, nothing was done about the situation and I barely touched my food because it was simply untasteful (even though I was extremely hungry). My fiance's ribs also had no taste and he also just pecked at his food. so we just paid and left.
I don't care if its cultivated prawns or not or that the vain isn't poisonous I STILL DON'T WANT TO EAT IT. i tried complaining at the restaurant but no luck. I will never set foot in any La Romantica ever again!!
