Here’s a polished and more structured version of your review while keeping your key points clear and fair:
I was really looking forward to something special, but unfortunately, this experience fell short. My wife and I planned a special lunch for Valentine’s Day and ordered the recommended Valentine’s Day special, along with oysters and a $70 bottle of white wine.
Right from the start, small details were overlooked. There were no individual plates or oyster forks, and the advertised side marinade was missing—just a bottle of Tabasco was provided. While we arrived slightly early, with only one other table occupied, we were seated promptly. Given the strong reviews I had read, I expected a flawless experience, but when the correct cutlery was missing and the bread arrived after the appetizers as an afterthought, I started to have doubts.
The ongoing light rail construction meant noise and disruption were expected, but with no tablecloths, our plates and cutlery were directly on the bare table with any dust etc from the construction. To add to the atmosphere, construction work began upstairs, complete with power tools. While I sympathize with local businesses affected by the area’s challenges, these factors certainly impacted our experience.
Despite all this, I still had high hopes for the highlight of my meal—the 500g steak. Unfortunately, while it was decent, it was only marginally better than what I can get at my local club, and to be honest, it wasn’t much larger than their 300g option.
For a total bill of $314 for two people, I expected far more. Sorry, Glenelg, but this missed the mark. Given the distance we traveled for the experience, I can’t see myself returning.
This version keeps your disappointment clear while maintaining a balanced and informative tone for potential diners. Let me know if you’d like any adjustments!
