Platan

Came here for dinner since we stayed across the street. The drinks were good, caprese salad appetizer was delicious, so I figured the filet mignon I ordered would follow suit. This is essentially what they dropped in front of me. From my steak knowledge, that cut is not filet mignon. That’s most likely eye of round. It also was cooked medium well, or even well done. So I poured all the sauce on it to help the dryness which it didn’t. I wanted to push through and eat it but because it was so dry and overcooked, I could not. I asked the waiter about the cooked level and he said that “all of their meats are cooked medium well” so in that case I said okay I’ll just eat it. Not sure if I’d go back knowing their meats are cooked medium well. My partners meal was good though so maybe just avoid the steaks if you come here.

In all fairness, I did not eat there and did not reserve, which is on me. Yet I read in other reviews that the head server was very nice and tried her best to accommodate guests without a reservation. However, it seems the nice one was off since the head server tonight was very unpleasant and rude. No smile and she would not put down her phone while guiding me to a tucked away, lonely table in their very dark and not inviting interior. No effort to even look if there was a chance in an hour or so.
The terrace does look inviting though.

They were completely full when we came to eat but the nice administrator found a spot for us outside. The food was very delicious, especially the salad with aubergines. We had to wait some time for our other dishes to be served but that is alright as there were many people eating at that time.

The waiter misunderstood our order and brought one extra soup for us. When I pointed out his mistake he said that we have to pay for it anyway. Then he acted as if he was offended for the rest of the evening making us feel not very welcome. The food was hit or miss — soups were nice but kebabs had 0 taste. As if they weren’t seasoned at all.

We had a great dinner at the Platan restaurant. We arrived after 9pm on a weekday and the service was fast, the waiters all spoke english. The food is very tasty and elevated compared to many other restaurants, nice atmosphere and the price is still fair. Would definitely recommend!

The food was delicious but the waiter forgot to serve us two dishes. Moreover when we tried to order the desert they told us the kitchen was closed and they did not warn us in advanced. We ended up with a bittersweet feeling.

The restaurant is fantastic and the service is great. The hotel is awful, my room was located right next to reception and so all you hear is guest and phone calls. Truly dreadful experience. Honestly one of the least restful hotels I have ever stayed in.
