the review
Ordered jerk vegan and it was literally a bowl of chips with a small amount of chopped mushrooms in some jerk sauce. ——— time was very long, all I can say was staff were very polite and friendly but that’s about it.

Replies here run longer than the Birmingham median — 28 words against 24. Longer is not better: past a certain point a reply reads as defensive, and the reader stops. 43% of them touch nothing the reviewer actually wrote.

what we would have written
The staff being good to be around is worth something, and we're glad that came through. On the dish itself — the balance between the base and the main element matters, and a bowl that reads as mostly chips isn't what jerk vegan is meant to be.
