It was bloody ace, and that's swearing
very disspointing actually.
The bar staff had no idea what the prices were and kept messing it up. In fact, they tried to overcharge on purpose a bit. Something fishy going on there.
The finger food was basically non existent except for a few plates dumped randomly on tables.
The music could not be heard outside
Everyone was sitting at their own tables. It was not very inviting to mingle with others.
Sorry, but not the best one, but it is not the fault of Shanghaiist. Maybe the venue and staff too new to do this so soon.
i guess it depends on where you were sitting. the staff were very pleasant where we were and the food was plentiful. whenever we asked for more, they brought out a plate. the sound system definitely could be improved, but we were sitting near a speaker and can confirm that it was a bloody good mix of tunes. had a great time - from what i can recall. when is the next one?
