The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in Wheatley Rochford East of England

To say something is very wrong would be an understatement. My friends and I have eaten at this particular Prezzo for years, and never usually had problems...however, recently things have gone rather wrong. The order sizes have shrunk, especially the pasta dishes. We usually order the spaghetti carbonara with added chicken....it used to come in a lovely large dish and now it's a tiny portion with 4 or 5 tiny bits of chicken (which for an extra £3 is ridiculous). But more worrying was the serious lack of communication between staff. I understand it's a busy time of year, but the restaurant can only get so busy as there are only a set number of tables. So surely the staff should be able to handle it at it's busiest, if not then management need to restructure their staffing needs. On our last visit for example, we waited 45 minutes for our food, and when it came the waitress bought our desserts before our mains....took them back....then we waited a further hour for our mains to finally arrive (que the disappointment in the tiny carbonara) then a further hour past whilst we waited for our desserts which they had tried to serve us previously....in the end we told them to cancel the desserts and asked for the bill so we could just leave. The table next to us were having the same problem and also decided to leave half fed. £50+ it cost me for the privilege of two tiny dishes and a couple of fruit juices over the time span of 3 hours of waiting.....and it then took 4 staff members just to sort out our total and give me the bill. But sure, take my £50 I guess. I sincerely hope things improve.
