Brisbane Restaurant Tips by bezerra

Restaurant Name: Arriva Italian Restaurant

I really wanted to enjoy this restaurant, as I had heard very good things about this establishment. Unfortunately it failed dismally to live up to any reputation it could have had owing to the rudeness of its wait staff. Our group had an early booking of 6pm. Little did we realise that we had to be out exactly at 7.15pm. Something that was not brought to our notice until... 7.15pm. When our desserts arrived. (Lets not mention the delay between our finishing mains and the taking of our dessert order - about 15 minutes I do believe) We were told that we needed to leave in 6 minutes. Our bill accompanied our desserts, and once my husband had signed off on his visa card we were told to leave the table - immediately. The rudeness of our waitress was beyond compare - the highlight was when she told us if we "didn't like it, don't come back"

Well Jacqui, or whoever was the rude "person" who served us - we won't come back. You have left a bad taste in our mouth which is a pity, as the food was quite passable.

Favorite Dish: I can't remember - the trauma of dealing with the wait staff has banished the flavour
