What a shame ! We have eaten at Toms Table several times and always had a great meal. On this occasion it was badly let down by slow service and a frankly inedible item of food. We appreciate it was busy, but waited half and hour for our order to be taken and then another half hour for anything to arrive (and only then because we flagged up the wait to the server). We only wanted our bread to eat as an apertiser to keep us going. The bread eventually came with a sickly sweet accompaniment and the meanest cube of butter !! (We were given extra butter when we asked). Terrible though for £6.50. However, the thing that ruined the evening, was to have a complaint we made pretty much dismissed, about something that should have been a red cabbage side dish, but was brown in colour and just tasted horrible. Really over reduced, almost burnt. The server just said that there was nothing they did in the Kitchen that could have made it like that. Basically saying, you are wrong, you have imagined it, the dish was fine. How arrogant!! It was a great shame that the chef didn’t ‘own it’. We were offered a small discount because the service was slow. We won’t rush back !!
