"I recently went to Cin Cin for their bottomless brunch with friends for the second time, and once again it did not disappoint. The food was incredible, the drinks kept flowing, and the service was top-notch. The atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing afternoon. I highly recommend stopping by for a visit. Price per person is £30-40, and I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere all a perfect 5 out of 5."

"The food was really very good. Beautiful to look at and delicious to eat. I have a thing about lukewarm food but it was served hot and on warmed plates. Quality of the food was outstanding , well seasoned and beautifully presented."

"The Sicilian is a handy, family-run restaurant in the seaside town of Deal (Kent) offering delicious food, cheaper eats, from snacks to meals, and some of the best and reasonably priced wine in town. Located just off the High Street, the Restaurant is small (bijou), with additional seating outside for your morning coffee or one of their home-made ices. I dine here once a month, for lunch with friends. We usually each opt for the simple range of Panini to Antipasti Pasta and (collectively) a bottle of their local (Sicilian) wine. Time permitting (priorities) perhaps we’d start with a shared plate of ‘antipasto misto’, cured meats or cheeses, not to forget ‘pane e olive’, a trusted and fine accompaniment to the wine. I have always felt that the judge of a good restaurant is the soup, and have never been disappointed, but various pastas are on offer, the ‘Cannelloni Ricotta a Spinaci’ delighted my friend, the ‘Lasagne’ was among the best I have ever sampled. The baked aubergine with tomato and mozzarella ‘Parmigiana’ is another favourite. There is also a selection of pizza to suite many diverse tastes. Although we have often commented on the lovely deserts and pastries on display, we have yet to take the plunge, but ‘watch this space’ The service is friendly, we feel at home, loving the mix of authentic tastes. At the weekend The Sicilian offers evening dining, the ‘specials’ board giving an extended view of this cuisine from southern Italy."

"I don't even know where to begin with this restaurant. The food was terrible - way too much sugar in the curry! It seemed like minimal effort went into preparing all of the dishes. The service was mediocre, with the only saving grace being the female server. There was a large party of 20 people who had been there for over 3 hours, making the atmosphere unpleasant as the staff seemed overwhelmed. The restaurant is in desperate need of a renovation. It is not vegetarian-friendly and lacks variety in their menu options. Overall, it was a complete waste of money."

"Proper traditional and authentic Indian cuisine. I have been fond of indian spices for as long as I remember and have been eating all around the nation, wherever possible. I must admit that this restaurant served the closest touch of real and authentic Indian taste so far. I loved the ambience of the venue, well decorated, neatly arranged and friendly staffs. I don't seem to understand why some people have had bad experiences and reviews towards the establishment. Anyway, a Defo place to visit whilst around. Thanks to the whole team and will be back again for sure."

"Don't be put off the unprepossessing location next to a Kebab Shop, this is the best food in Sandwich. None of your Brakes-supplied pre-prepared nonsense you find in most pubs these days. Everything appears to be cooked from fresh (I've seen the owner buying fish in the local fishmonger) you can watch the chef from the bar area.It's a small place and has a small but nice sunny garden at the back.A rather small selection of real ales (only but very well chosen and kept.Service was informal and helpful.My only criticism would be their website where the opening hours bear no relationship to the actual opening hours.My go-to place in Sandwich now, so much better than other more obvious and better positioned establishments."

"The Pinot grigio was very light and fruity, and very delicious. The Starters were lovely, vert tasty, and different from other starters that are offered at most pubs. The mains were very disappointing, the liver was tough, and the fish pie had two prawns and three small pieces of fish, and the mass potato was instant potato and runny. Above our table was a speaker blaring out loud music, and I couldn't hear what my friend was saying. Price per person: £70–80 Food: 2 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 1"

"Only the fourth time I've eaten here over the years but the food never disappoints. The reason why I haven't eaten there more is because they're fully booked a lot of the time! Walkability: Right on Deal seafront a flat promenade across the road. Food drinks: Tasty food reasonably priced £108 for three three course meals Inc 2 bottles of wine. Noteworthy details: Lovely location, good food and good service. Service: 5"

"Visited this time last year after checking on their website that they did food. It said they did but when I got there they said they wasn’t doing food at that current time and they hadn’t got around to updating their website. Back in the area now and checked their website again. Looked like its had a revamp and said that it was open from 2pm and that they served food from 2:30pm. When I got there at 2:40pm it was shut and the sign outside said it wasn’t open until 4pm. So so frustrating. Can’t do the very basics of keeping their website up to date and keeping potential customers informed of when they are open and serving food. Pathetic."

"I stopped by for food but was informed that there were no available tables due to quiz night, even though the restaurant was empty. We decided to go down the road to the Zetland for drinks and then had a meal at the Rising Sun. As we walked back past the restaurant, it was still empty. It seems they may not welcome campers on quiz night. Our experience was disappointing, as we ended up spending our money elsewhere. They were not willing to accommodate us, even though we would have been happy to sit at the bar or in the tap room. The response we received from the staff seemed defensive and unwelcoming. Despite this, we had a great meal and drinks at another establishment nearby. It seems like the issue lies with their kitchen staff's inability to handle a few extra customers. Overall, we were not impressed with the service or atmosphere."

"Pizza Excellent Beer Excellent Atmosphere Excellent Music Excellent Staff Excellent What's not to love about this little gem of a place. We had a table of 8 on Good Friday. The place was buzzing. The staff were so welcoming we relaxed straight away. The choice and quality of the beers were amazing and when our food arrived we were not disappointed. The pizzas available were different in terms toppings that we have had before and worked really well. This place keeps it simple but does it with professionalism while keeping it fun and friendly. At the end of the night we were presented with a bill that was more than reasonable. Would highly recommend to anyone."

"Five families, 21 of us in total were camping at Sandwich Technology College for the bank holiday weekend. We left it a bit late on the booking front but fortunately St Crispin Inn could accommodate us. We were so pleased they did, as it worked...out brilliantly. They were great as they had to jiggle the seating plan too, as we added two more people to our number late on. (thank you for your patience Jason We found a path, off the road, that took us to the pub in 20 minutes. St Crispin Inn had put us in our own room to the side, which I'm sure the other patrons were glad of! We were emailed the menus beforehand and had sent back our chosen mains. There was a great variety to pick from, including roasts, ribs, fish and chips and burgers. There were vegetarian options too, a vegetable tart roast and the halloumi burgers, which were delicious. All the food came out quickly and the presentation and portions were impressive. The service we had was fantastic, our large number didn't seem to phase them at all. I didn't get everyone's names but a big thanks to Liam! So to summarise, pretty location, very accommodating, brilliant friendly service and fantastic food. We couldn't have asked for more, we were very happy campers! Thank you!"

"Walked in to find a dog and nearly left. To keep us there the waiter said they 're going soon and he sat us some tables away. Barely started eating our meal and another dog arrived he seated them one table away. Two seconds later two women arrived with three more dogs again he sat them adjacent to us. We got up and left. Paying our bill we told the waiter we had mentioned our aversion to dogs in restaurants. With over three quarters of it empty we could only deduce he had no concern for us as customers. The owner was in the place but nowhere to be seen at that point so we told him to report back that we would not return. He was unmoved and we assumed our feedback would fall on deaf ears as the owner had already made a fuss of the first dog despite its owner commenting he really needs a bath , and, after eating his own lunch the owner promptly walked back into the kitchen without sanitising his hands!"

"Wasn’t sure what to expect, it was a last minute booking on Father’s Day and they had a vacancy for five and a dog! Tables outside with a gazebo and a singer setting up, but we’d elected an inside table as there was a chance of rain. Directed to our table which had a reserved sign. Table layout was spacious, distance between tables was good most venues seem to cram the tables in to maximise profit. Roast diners of lamb, beef or turkey with roast pots and seasonal veg, there were about 10 12 other main courses covering pies, fish, salad and lasagna etch plus a selection of children’s meals. You go to the bar to order your food and drinks. I opted for the steak and ale pie, chips and peas, it said there was optional seasonal veg but they sent that out anyway. Daughter had half roast chicken and others the roast Turkey. The pie was a large portion, pastry thin and the meat plentiful and full of flavour, best I’ve had in ages, the chips large and crispy and the peas were …..peas. All in all a great plate of food. Equally the other meals were generous potions, Turkey and roast potatoes almost filled the plate. The veg was well cooked, not over done and consisted of carrots, cauliflower and cabbage. More than we needed. All meals arrived together and hot, waitresses (2) were good, offered condiments and returned 10 mins later to check everything was ok. Plates cleared but not rushed to leave, declined desserts as we were too full. The bill came to £61.00 for five meals (not including drinks) when I enquired about the service charge, the owner told me it’s not included and declined to take it and politely asked me to pay our waitress direct. Must be a good place to work to have such an honest boss. Would we go back, definitely, would we recommend it, yes but don’t all book at once or we may find it harder to get a table!"

"Food here had been pretty bad but local gossip rumoured that, with a new chef, it had become very good. Tripadvisor reviews were mixed but we gave it a try yesterday and soon regretted the decision. We had pre booked a table though, as it transpired, there were plenty in the restaurant area. The bar was very busy so it took ten minutes for someone to direct us to our table, a further ten minutes to get a menu and another ten minutes to order. We were warned that there could be an hour 's delay for the food. We wondered how since the restaurant remained largely empty but, having plenty of family gossip to catch up on, ordered some nibbles and drinks and accepted the wait. After another ten minutes, the drinks appeared. After twenty minutes, we asked when the olives would appear (no cooking, after all) and eventually a plate of undercooked doughy 'ciabatta ' (nothing like the real thing) with tiny dish of some sort of oil (not good olive oil) appeared. The new waitress had misunderstood our order but, never mind, we accepted this was a human error. and were hungry enough to tackle the poor food. Time went on...and on...and on. Meanwhile, we were missing all the entertainments on offer for the Sandwich Festival. After considerably longer than the 'hour ', our two seafood platters and one steak arrived. The steak was acceptable, despite the chips not being 'real '. The platters were nothing like those illustrated. Where were the large prawns etc etc? Instead, a poor array of overcold supermarket style freshwater shrimp (tiny and too cold to taste of anything), vinegary mussels and cockles....I could go on you can guess the rest. The accompanying so called 'ciabatta ' had to be sent back as it was so undercooked as to be inedible. You may guess that this place will never see us again except as we walk by to go to the centre of town. What a shame."
"This was an amazing place to stay. We were looked after so well, the food was cooked to perfection! We had booked for one night and upon arrival booked a second night. It is within easy reach of a lot of coastal towns, we will definitely be returning : Rooms: 4 Service: 5 Location: 4 Hotel highlights: Quiet"

"We are local residents and have visited this restaurant several times. The food is fantastic and very interesting. The highlight is the unique dining experience, with a chef's taster menu featuring multiple small courses. You can choose a night when the menu matches your preferences, but the fun comes from trying new and unexpected dishes. The attentive service makes you feel well taken care of, similar to being at a top chef's dinner party. The prices are very reasonable considering the effort put into creating each menu. Treat yourself to a wonderful evening by choosing from the list of menus and finding a night that suits you."
