😒 3/5 - When we were setting up our trip to London, my friend

When we were setting up our trip to London, my friend wanted to dine at the city's oldest restaurant, which happened to be Rules. Interesting experience. We arrived at 4:30. Started off on the wrong foot immediately. The host really made us feel unwelcome, and made it abundantly clear we needed to be done and out of there by 6:30. We'll, OK then! He seated us at a table for two across the aisle from the bar. As soon as we were seated, a few fruit flies wanted to join us at our table. A couple tables down was a couple that were all over each other. The host didn't seem to mind, in spite of stares by other diners trying to enjoy their dinner. After we shooed them away a few times they left, but still tried a few times to help with our dinners. The food took a bit to arrive, which made me nervous because of the stern warning we got from the host. My lady ordered the chicken pot pie, and I the rump steak. Also, on a lark, we tried the peas with cooked lettuce. We'd never heard of cooked lettuce, but the dish was actually amazing, very well seasoned. I tasted her pie. The puff pastry crust was pretty good, but I found the filling just bland, like no seasoning at all. Then we move on to the rump steak, which I ordered medium rare. When they brought it out it looked quite impressive as you can see. Beautiful sear, lots of herbed brown butter. But on the inside, totally raw. Wait, it gets better. The unwritten rule in the restaurant racket is that the server should check back with the table not more than 5 minutes after the food arrives. So I tried to get anyone's attention that would even look at me. The only ones that seemed at all interested were the fruit flies, until I had gnawed my way through a very tough cut of raw meat and someone came to clear the table and ask how everything was. Keep in mind, we're now 45 minutes in, and she was the first to check in with us! The boss did the right thing and took the steak off the check, but it shouldn't have happened in the first place. As to the condition of the place, granted it's as old as the US Constitution, and there are a lot of artifacts on the walls, to the point where it's almost claustrophobic, dated and dingy. There are spots where wallpaper is actually peeling. There's stuff at the hardware store that comes in a tube that will fix it in a minute.And anytime there are fruit flies around, it comes just from a lack of care and cleaning, more than likely in the bar. Very sad.
