"Oh my god, it was a year ago when we visited last. The food then was brilliant, but this surpassed every expectation. The sardines as a starter and the garlic and chilli prawns which we kind of shared were outstanding, I had the veal as my main with black olives and capers in a rich sauce, I’m still dreaming of it, the other half had the seafood pasta, he wouldn’t give me a taste as he hugged his bowl with a broad grin on his face, so took that to be a hit. Dessert I had the lightest tiramisu ever, he had I don’t know what, he wouldn’t tell me, but it was so delicious, he admitted in the car on the way home he had just taken a stab at the desert menu as had forgotten his glasses, but I’m glad he did."

"Parking is available, and the staff is incredibly friendly and efficient. They also maintain good social distancing measures. The food was absolutely outstanding—definitely the best I've ever had. If you love fish and seafood, the selection here is amazing. If you're not a fan (like my sister, who can't stand it), the options are more limited, but still very tasty. My brother-in-law and I sampled each other's dishes, as well as our sisters' meals, and everything was delightful. The portion sizes are perfect, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. I can't recommend this place enough! I can't wait to go back again and again."

"We were treated y the most rude lady on Saturday the 23rd sept. She didn’t even bother to face us to explain why we weren’t allowed to have food outside. I’ve never been treated lurks that before.. PS , her cheap tattoos added to her personality. Never going back . Price per person: £1–10"

"Firstly we went to this restaurant based on past very good experience, the food was nothing like the standard it has been in the past. When asked by a partner owner how was the food, I suggested “very average and not what it was” I was met with this response “well mate, that’s up to the chef, there’s nothing I can do, nothing has changed” to which I suggested it has, given our past experience. I was then met with “oh well! what do you want me to do about it” The food was dry and burnt, the king prawns are chopped in to small pieces, of which there were a tiny handle in there. The veg curry was mushy like baby food. Saag aloo like dust, forget ordering that. Given the condition of the meat, it was dry and may have been re cooked. We ate what we could and left a lot of food! When we asked for the bill it was extraordinarily high for this level of food. I suggested this was not acceptable. I was told well thats how much it is. Zero attempt to apologise, understand our opinion or make any offer to improve our opinion. At this point both partners are at the table telling us that we are wrong and everyone else that night was happy (2 other people in a big restaurant at 9pm) the partners then went on to include the other couple in the conversation for their opinion! I mean this really is the worst experience we’ve ever had in any restaurant! We eat out 3 times a week and have had no complaints in a very long time, eating all over the UK. Eventually the other couple suggested a reduction would be a fair resolution to the owner partners. Who were incapable of finding this solution on their own accord. Seriously a very disappointing and terrible experience to go through.. ruined our night out and would suggest it be AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS!"

"We went to a buffet and were told it was different from others, but it turned out to be a set menu at a high price. We couldn't finish all the food, which was nice but very oily. We were not allowed to take home what we couldn't eat because it was given to a homeless person. Charging an 8-year-old £13 for just 2 poppadoms and a few pieces of meat seemed like a rip-off, even if the blackcurrant was free. Other places offer a £15 menu with more options, which is a better deal. Maybe they should lower the price and advertise it as a set menu instead of a buffet, which suggests you can order as much as you want."

"They are definitely trying to bring some elegance to the area here. Your on the high street to need torso somewhere else so get a cab or short walk further down the road there is a car park. This is a small restaurant and they do try there best but it can be tight. Nice clean toilets considering how busy it was that night. Food came at a reasonable time from ordering to delivering the select food. I ordered the Haley kabab, I was a little dissatisfied with as it was oily and a good combination when drinking fizzy drinks. I was also disappointed as One of the rules was “We require a smart casual dress code no trainers, no tracksuits, no shorts, no hats and no flip flops.” I saw more than a couple of people dressed with trainers. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner"

"This is the second time I've been here and both times have been brilliant! Greeted at the door with a friendly smile and shown to our table with a smile on his face. Our waiter came to take our order and was also very friendly and polite throughout the whole lunch. Both times I've been here staff have been incredibly friendly, they are a credit to the restaurant! Our food came promptly and was delicious! The portions are a lot more generous than they look and we all left feeling very full and satisfied. Vouchercloud do a 20% off mains voucher on certain days which was valid on a Sunday so got £8 off the bill. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning!"

"Visited the pub a number of occasions. Have to say never disappointed, its a big airy pub, a long bar, plenty of tables and more important lots of TV SCREENS showing multiple sports. The staff are courteous and efficient. It makes a nice change to...get experienced And friendly staff behind the bar rather than the surly students at a spoons. I'd definitely recommend."

"I went for a family meal with my nabbon, infant and baby for a father's meal. the dame, who originally cared for us, was too busy to take the tables for customers who still arrive instead of taking the pizza order for us - the customers who were already in the restaurant and have two young children who were clearly uneasy. I didn't want to say anything, so a really nice girl called prasanna asked if I could place the order with her. prasanna was so wiling to help and alert and has turned all the experience around herself. Thank you. prasanna, they do a good work and put the bar with their level of customer services really high. You're a star!"

Couldnt stomach eating it all. I'd rather have a smaller beefburger and nice quality. This is cheap rubbish meat and they charge over £12 for this with a thin sliver of cheese in a bun. Dry and yuk. You could do so much better guys....you've got a great pub there but you need to work on your food quality if you're going to charge these prices."

"This restaurant offers great value and fast delivery. We have been ordering from this takeaway for more than 4 years. The food is always good and the portions are decent. The service is excellent, with a rating of 5. We usually order dinner, and the price per person ranges from £10 to £20. We highly recommend trying the Prawn Crackers and Chicken Chow Mein."

"This is my top rated indian takeaway, which I've used for years. Although most people use fast food apps to order, I order from their own website or go there and order and wait. The food is superb and the portion sizes are more than fair. I love the value of the 3 and 4 course banquet meals, but my favourite dishes there are the chicken tikka nan roll, sag aloo, sag paneer, and chicken dhansak."

"The meal was highly overpriced for what we received. The food wasn't even that good; the portion sizes were more suited for a child than an adult. I ordered a piña colada while I drove, and it was tiny for £6. I felt completely ripped off. Overall, I was very disappointed. "

The food is served until 10:30pm and alcohol is available until closing time at midnight. Ordering is made easy with the convenient QR code scanning option."

"I ordered takeout from Zenz on Saturday night and it was excellent. While it may be a bit pricier than other Chinese restaurants, the quality justifies the cost. I had some difficulty reaching them by phone, so I ended up going to the restaurant to place my order. I only had to wait about 20 minutes for my meal, despite it being a busy Saturday night. As I left, I noticed a line of people waiting to dine in. I would definitely recommend this restaurant."

"We went to order a takeaway inside ordering the meal was easy. While waiting part of a gentleman's meal was cold informed the staff no sorry about that. Left him waiting at the counter while the rest of his meal got cold . Our meal the fries where wrong instead of putting the bag on the hot top they left it on the side . I had to ask them to keep it warm. The staff need to be trained in customer service, everything seems to be to much trouble. The chicken is greasy not drained properly. If staff are approachable and friendly sometimes you can forget the little mistakes."
