Extremely Disappointing and Unprofessional Experience from Management
I am extremely disappointed with the manner in which our booking was handled by the manager, Dennis. We received an invoice reflecting a 10% service fee and paid the full amount indicated. However, approximately an hour before our event, Dennis contacted us demanding an additional payment, stating that the service fee should have been 15% and that the new manager had made an error on the invoice. During the conversation, he referred to the new manager as a "baby", stated that she did not know what she was doing, and indicated that it was not his responsibility to train her. When I explained that we had already paid the invoiced amount and that the error was not ours, his manner became loud, rude and confrontational. Upon my arrival at the restaurant, Dennis addressed the matter in front of my colleagues in a loud and condescending manner, which I found highly unprofessional and embarrassing. The entire experience left me feeling disrespected and extremely disappointed with the level of management and customer service received. Regrettably, based on this experience, I will not be returning to Bossa Meerendal.

****** STAFF
If I could rate 1 start I would. Father’s day was completely ruined by this *********** staff and unprofessional website. I would recommend Bossa Woodbridge Island any day. However for this clown show and mockery at Meerndal Wine Estate should be a 0 out of 10. Note that are you completely looked at your face and this is a ****** estiblishment. Their staff is unfriendly and you will wait approximately 2-3 hours for your meal. I went to this establishment for a first time and never again.

Bossa meerendal will not see me again!
I had an upsetting experience yesterday at bossa! Firstly I was not happy with the service, we were not checked up on once and when we wanted to order we waited forever on the waiter, then our food came 2 hours later even someone that did not order food ordered ice cream and waited more than a hour. Then in one of our pizzas was found plastic we saw the manager and she brought a new pizza but the appetite was lost by waiting long and then plastic in the pizza, what a disgrace. Then we ordered spinach and when the food came they only told us there is no spinach and added a salad without even asking! Then we ordered 4 jugs of juice and the waiter said it is R35 when the bill came it was R560 for the juice and we asked why so much then only he told us it is R35 per glass! I was utterly upset! Then to top it all off we had a service fee of over R600 that we were not even aware of because it was not communicated to us, where we already paid 10% of everyone's bill for the tip and still a service fee? this is so rediculous because the service was not even a bit good!

Chicken and avocado salad was suspect
Today Sunday 25 January we went to Bossa Meerendal for a light lunch at 12 noon. The service was good and the food arrived quite quickly. My friend ordered the Rump salad and I had the chicken and avocado salad. The chicken looked like processed chicken pieces from a tin and there were pieces of ham as well. It was never the less quite tasty. Afterwards I started feeling nauseous and by 6pm I started vomiting chunks of chicken salad. I wonder if anyone else had the same experience? The chicken was definitely off although with the honey mustard dressing I couldn't taste anything was wrong.
