We came here during the Christmas break for dinner, when Auckland is nice and quiet. There were 5 of us and not one of us were happy with our meals. I ordered the seafood risotto which came out drenched in liquid, it was more like a stew than a beautiful creamy risotto. I ate the seafood and left most of the rice, it was drowned in stock and tasted like runny fishy water. I complained to the waiter and he just said "oh well you get that"! Not a good start! The others had steak and lamb, all said they were tough. We didn't want to look at the dessert menu and weren't offered it.
I have been here before and had great meals, I was so angry with the response that I cant recommend SPQR to anyone.
Earlier this month a friend went back for a 40th birthday dinner, they stuffed up the orders, sent out the entrees and a main which was wrong and given to the wrong person, waited up to 2 hours for their food in total, (I would have just walked out). Complained profusely and were ignored!
I don't think I need to rate it!
