    ‘Ulu seemed nice but it was just okay. We have very, very slow service and their point of sale system had an issue when we put in our soufflé. Consequently, we did not get that dessert (as it would have taken and additional 35 minutes) and the restaurant did the bare minimum to make up for it (e.g. remove it from our bill). A simple gesture of an apology or attempting to buy us a drink would’ve taken a bad situation and made up for it. The ambience was excellent, the food was mediocre, and the service was just okay. For the price we expected better.
