Former TOWIE stars Sam and Billie Faiers said they were left unimpressed after a recent visit to a posh London restaurant.
The sisters were left with a sour taste in their mouths after being unable to dine at the Mayfair eatery, despite having booked a table.
Pregnant Sam, 31, and Billie, 32, explained that they were out in the capital, last month, to celebrate their mum Suzie's 53rd birthday on the latest episode of their The Sam & Billie Show podcast, the Mirror reports.

They arrived at the restaurant 20 minutes late - and found their table had been given away.
Speaking on the podcast, Sam said they asked for another table after sitting at the bar for nearly an hour.
She said: "I booked mum’s dinner on this concierge app, so we’ve walked into the restaurant and we were 15 minutes late, no, 20 minutes late, we had our reservation, got to the restaurant 20 minutes late, walked in, just the three of us."
Telling how the hostess at the door informed them their table was no longer available, Sam recalled being told: "Umm there is a 15 minute grace period, we’ve given your table away."
Billie said: "From that kind of restaurant you do not expect that kind of service.
"You’d expect something like ‘I’m really sorry, you're a little bit over the waiting period for your table, could you have a drink at the bar? We will try and sort something out,' it was like 'we’ve given your table away your five minutes over your grace period.'"
Sam continued: "First of all, I was like 'sorry I didn’t know there was a grace period I booked it through a concierge company who is very well known, you’ll know them, you have my credit card details.'
"It was like come on, we are five minutes later than this grace period, that we didn’t know about."
Sam then went on to say how post- covid there are no walk-in tables available in London with Billie adding that spontaneity has gone out the window.
She said: "So we was like 'ok we will stand at the bar', we were there for nearly an hour.
"They totally forgot about us!"
Billie later added: "It was busy, there was a lot of tables being cleared but they could have squeezed us in apart from a small bar stool."
Sam then outed the venue, saying: "I think we should name and shame Sexy Fish."
