    Have been a regular at Sticks for the past two years trying different branches. Food is amazing as usual but the service here could’ve been better. It was painfully difficult to get the attention of any member of staff even though I came well before closing. Many walking past my table avoiding eye contact. But there was one food runner who was very attentive in the end. This is typically the case when dining alone, hope this will be better.

    Food is good if a little formulaic. We had to wait 20 minutes for a drink, being ignored. We asked for a substitution on set menu and whilst confirmed they brought food we didn’t eat. The waiters ignored us and a waiter at next section gestured at us that there was no way he was dealing with this - extremely rude and disrespectful. I complained and they reduced the bill. But really. Wait till they sort the service out.

    The food was great however the service and ambience were not the best. The music was too loud and it made people talk louder so we left with headaches. Service was also not the best. I went there before and service was much better, this time it seems that the staff were very tired, service was slow (we had to ask for water 3 times).

    Service was really poor. Had to ask to order drinks, order food, order more drinks and then we had to ask for the bill twice
