Mythos (Irene Village Mall)

We visited Mythos Irene Mall on the evening of 25 April 2014. We had a reservation and were greeted by name - but that is where the magic stopped. Service was as bad as it could get. In fact it was shocking. I refused to tip a cent. The food was no better: My wife's stake was under done when she ordered well done. The cut was terrible and the flavour and seasoning promised on the menu was non existent. It was dry and tasteless. The French Fries with my lamb shank were dry and old. Presentation of the food and generally what is put on your plate is 2 star hotel stuff and is just thrown on the plate by a 'could not care' chef (who needs to be fired). This is the third time now that we have experienced the deterioration of service and food at Mythos Irene and is the first - but alarming signs - of complacency that will eventually lead to Mythos Irene closing its doors. It is following the path of arrogance that led to the closure of two well known restaurants at the same mall. Like many other diners, it is our last visit to Mythos Irene.
