    I booked this, had the expense of taking an uber there only to find out they were closed! I realize it was Good Friday but if you aren’t going to be open there had to be a way or recording that so it wouldn’t allow bookings. Other restaurants were reflecting as closed/not taking reservations. It is very poor customer service! I am a female, solo traveller from another Country that was dropped off, for an evening reservation, in an area I was not familiar with, in a country I had never visited before. It was unnerving!
