"This is a highly frequented restaurant, so expect to find a queue of people in the entry and outside waiting to be seated. Is it worth the wait? Once you are seated it only depends on how quickly you can make up your mind what to order. Once ordered you'll have your food quickly. It's not the most inviting place and very busy, so I don't think anyone wants to stay around long anyway. I guess the speed of service is welcome. The table will not be empty for long, so it serves the business and we surely can assume that that's the business model. The food appears fresh, but underseasoned. In all there business they forgot to bring the wine. I guess wine drinking customers will block tables for too long anyway. If you need heightened attention of the service personal, you should look somewhere else."

"We enjoy visiting Hungry Yeti buffet in two ways: refueling while shopping, and dining with friends or as a couple. The management's Himalayan origins are evident in the décor, with commissioned original paintings on the walls as a reminder of home. The buffet selection and prices vary depending on the day and time of your visit, so it's best to check the website for more information. The cheaper session menu offers a wide variety of choices, including delicious Indian and Far-Eastern dishes. The dessert selection may not be the most exciting, but I've never had room for any anyways, and kids will be satisfied. The more expensive session menu includes higher-cost ingredients such as prawns and more complex dishes, with an expanded dessert selection as well. The buffet also offers a take away service, where you can fill a tin foil container to the brim. If you fancy alfresco dining, Walpole Park is just a short stroll away along Barnes Pike. Plastic cutlery is available upon request. The only downside is the restroom facilities, which do not match the quality of the rest of the restaurant and could use an update."

"The drinks are generally good at this restaurant, but I was not pleased with the layout of the location. There are hidden dangers such as chain mail that can be hazardous, especially for those carrying drinks that took half an hour to prepare. Unfortunately, my martinis ended up on the floor. The thought of queuing again was unbearable. The bar staff gave me a chastising look as they cleared the broken glass, sending a chill down my spine. On the bright side, my hangover might be slightly lessened by this expensive mistake (martinis are not two for one here). Overall, Maggie's is a health and safety nightmare for those who are clumsy and drunk."

"Average food at best. My wife and I ordered Achari Chicken and Chicken Biryani for the main course. My wife did not like the Biryani and my Achari Chicken tasted more like Achaar then Chicken. I know I should have expected as much, but I was expecting a blend of both flavours. For started we ordered Poppadoms and a portion of samosas (one meat and the other veg). The poppadoms were fresh and the veg samosa was quite nice, however the meat samosa was stuffed with too much meat. In my books that's not good, it also didn't help that the meat smelled a little, probably due to too much fat. Service We had to flag down waiters to serve us, take our order and to take our money. We didn't feel...read more"

"Hello, I wanted to share my experience with Pepe's piri piri Chicken located at 154 Maybury Road, Woking, GU21 5JR. The food was okay but not amazing. We have had better burgers and wings from other places. The size of the burgers for £2.79 and £3.79 did not seem worth it compared to similar shops in the area. Paying £9.98 for 10 wings, which came out to almost £1 for each tiny wing, felt like a rip off. I felt like I was deceived and overcharged. When I called the store to inquire about the prices, I was told that delivery prices were different. I was only informed about the free delivery for orders over £15 within 3 miles from the restaurant after the fact. I was never told that prices for delivery were higher than the prices at the counter. If I had known, I would have opted to pick up my order instead. I have a copy of the printed menu and the receipt to prove it. I plan on reporting this to the council as I believe customers shouldn't be charged more than what is displayed on the menu. I will share my experience on review sites and social media to help others make informed decisions. Unfortunately, this will be my first and last visit to this shop. Others can decide for themselves after reading my comments. Good luck."
Steak • Lunch • Cheese • British
"I had a baked potato, which was a fairly good size and grated cheddar cheese on top only a very small amount of butter was put on top of the potato before the cheese and there was no taste of it when I was eating it. The cheese didn't have much flavour and to charge £5.50 for this, I think it was a bit high. My husband had the steak and ale pie with mashed sweet potato and mushy peas. They were lost on the plate as there was so little and the pie is very small. To charge £7.90 for something like this is again, too much. The pie and mash tasted lovely but there needed to be more. We weren't filled up with our dinner and instead of being able to leave and drive home we had to go and find another place that sold food so we had something else to eat on our long drive home. We wouldn't go here again because of this."

"A couple of times now I have seen Thyme Restaurants give you a sense of disbelief if you haven't booked your table and then have the audacity to say it's about a 10 minute wait to get a seat. I'm not sure what they are trying to prove or if they are suggesting the kitchen staff are not up to capacity. I had to ask twice when my table would he ready after the overdue wait despite it being empty. I stop at a lot of premier inns and I think think the Brewers Fayre is the best experience and menu. I'm struggling to think of something positive. I would recommend finding somewhere else to eat if you want quicker service, not sure why several people are being turned away, doesn't make business sense to me."
