Story Inn

It surprised us to find out this was a halal place. Maybe that should be made more visible on the menu or website. The food was good, the waiters very friendly, and the service was good. There isn’t a very wide choice of food or drinks, for obvious reasons.

The 250gr steak came sliced up and overcooked, not saignant, and I really doubt it was 250gr. There were no plates, the sauce seemed boxed rather than fresh, and it was overpriced. They don’t serve alcohol at all, and the lights were out. The staff seemed unprofessional, as if they’d never spoken with customers before. It felt like the restaurant was trying to manage costs and margins after covid by cutting corners. The place should be clear about what to expect, and if it’s halal-only, say so clearly. I don’t understand the high 5/5 ratings. Do people not have standards or real dining experience? Maybe it’s because they ask diners to rate 5/5 in the restaurant, while waiting at their table, which feels pressuring. Customer experience here has a lot to learn from other restaurants. I won’t be back.

The restaurant looks good, but that’s about the only thing going for it. Food was tasteless, service was worse than Trump's vocabulary knowledge, and prices were high for portions that were far from generous. The underground bar was so loud it got annoying and even made eating on the terrace impossible. Wouldn’t recommend.

The atmosphere was good, and the place is nice and cozy. Service was friendly and good. We tried the Texas Ribs and Rum steak, and the food was nice.
