“Yup--went to Nubiani and tried to order more food with 15 minutes left at our table, were told no. Then when the next table was inevitably late for their reservation and after we had eaten dessert, we were asked if we wanted to then order more food.”

“Personally had an awful experience at Nubiani, while I loved Cote. The service at Nubani was god awful. Waitress burned every single piece of meat even though we asked for medium rare, and was mumbling when we asked her what the cut of meat was. Basically felt ignored the entire time.”
