When we arrived there was 1 couple in the whole restaurant. We were asked if we had reservations, we did not. We were seated at a table for 6. When the waitress arrived we were asked if we were there for the fish and we showed her the ad and said we were there for the special. She didn't know about it and took the ad and left. She came back and said it was a mistake and would be next week. We asked for the manager/owner and he came out and said it was a misprint and should be for next week and that he didn't have those meals in the restaurant. One of the meals (tilapia) was on the menu. We said seeing we came because of the ad would there be any compensation or adjustment and he threw the ad on the table and said it wasn't his fault. We said it wasn't ours either and left. Here is a restaurant that is begging for people to come because the course is closed, it's empty on a Friday night and the attitude from the time we entered was not welcoming at all. We will not be going back ever!

Mistakes do happen. Consider the possibility that the error was in fact made by the Daily Sun. If so, it might be appropriate to stop home delivery of the paper rather than condemn the victim over a crummy $10 free meal.
