Le Petit Riad - Cambrai

I don't usually have comments like this, but my experience last night at this restaurant, leaves me a bitter taste, yet before I moved there, I was aware of some opinions that prompted me to visit this eastern restaurant of Cambrai that I didn't know. When I arrived in this establishment I had to wait for more than a quarter of an hour at the entrance of the restaurant and as no one was interested in me, I decided to go to the counter to address me to the waitress who was in the middle of the dive, and I asked him, if I could dine. As a result, this one came to the server that was the manager of the establishment by whispering that I wanted to dine and his answer dismayed me when he replied: Put it there ....!!! That's what I heard. The table was crowded, not very clean, and the waitress asked me to take place and continued to get rid of its contents so that I could dine. This waitress, without presenting the menu map, placed on the table the menu map. At that precise moment, I almost left the establishment because I had felt ill-treated. Then I ordered my dish, a Royal couscous at 17,95€. Twenty minutes later, the boss comes to serve me the seed dish, the container with the broth and vegetables, without any word. This container was crushed in several places of its circumference. The broth released a thick layer of fat and was warm. I waited several long minutes after the meat dish that didn't reach me. As the dishes cooled, I asked for meat at the waitress who was behind the counter and this one told me that it was coming. Indeed, 10 minutes later, the so-called boss brought me the meat dish, and to my great shock, I noticed that the meat parts were really not up to my expectations. For the chicken, 1 plon, for the pike 4 tiny pieces of beef, for the lamb, 1 piece more composed of fat than meat and 1 merguez. Just as warm as the previous dishes. I don't hide from you that I regretted not leaving at the time I planned it. I assure you no exaggeration, in my words and that these are proven. I, who usually frequent the eastern restaurants of the region, very far this one is the worst I've ever seen and weigh my words. The comb is when I got home, I got a Riad coucous at 18,50€ while my order was a Royal couscous at 17,95€ and I used a Royal because there was no Kefta in the meat dish. Even if one observes that the difference is 55 cts of euros, one can imagine all possible cases of figure, i.e., an error or voluntary act.?. For my part, I ordered a Royal couscous and a water carafe. How can we be wrong with billing....!!! In any case, such was my experience last night, of course, it will not renew itself in this restaurant and from this comment, I wanted to notify you in order to make your arrangements if you move to this establishment. I'm sorry I didn't have the reflex to take some pictures to post them.

Extrèment long, 1H30 before being served Forget to serve us drinks Forget meat for one of the royal couscous but don't forget to count it on the bill without even an excuse... I may have fallen on a bad day... I paid them, but I'd never go back.

Cushion and tajine well served and especially very good. typical and welcoming , we spent the lunch the restaurant and well achalanded with a young clientele

Very good well seasoned and well served couscous. We've been enjoying ourselves. Only negative point is the price of alcoholic beverages that is fairly high.
