Mister Figaro - MERIMBULA

We decided to have dinner at Mister Figaro based on good reviews. The restaurant is quirky and the atmosphere is good. The staff were friendly and helpful but unfortunately this is where the positives ended.I ordered chicken skewers and my husband ordered loaded lamb fries. We waited an hour for our food (the excuse being that there was a big table they wanted to get food out to). I was underwhelmed by the $26 chicken skewers which I felt was not good value for money. By the time my our food came my husband was pretty much over it and ate three bites before asking for a take away.

Very poorly ran.At 7:30pm I was told they were too busy to do takeaway at that time and to come back at 8pm to order, which is fine. When I arrived back at 8:15pm I was told that they were not doing take away at all anymore. Very disappointing after waiting around with anticipation. I’ve never actually been able to obtain food there but I will not be returning, especially after being belittled by numerous staff. Quite a joke really.

Took 45mins to receive food which then only took 10mins to eat (portion sizes a bit small). Other than that, cool laneway vibes and decent menu selection.Probably would not return though.

Waited over an hour for an order of 2 pizzas. ended up leaving without eating. Menu and ordering was all done via phone, so no communication or interaction with staff.

Left hungry, one would think that a $28 main would be a small portion.
