"I've been here a few times and were it not for the reasonably priced softplay we would come here. Hubby thinks the buffet carvery is great so thumbs up from him for that. Otherwise the menu options are extremely limited if you don't want chips with your meal. Mostly burgers and the generic curry meal or salad. Lots of drink options, I enjoyed my tiramisu iced coffee, once it cake out made as it should be, which when I asked if it came with cream, the boy just shrugged and said he would ask: surely staff should know what they are serving? Staff are always lovely but a bit useless. Probably because there isn't enough of them. I.e. bringing mains out before the starter plates are cleared, and thus struggling to put anything down, not returning after mains are given to ask about dessert. The last time I was there, there was a power cut. Not their fault obviously, but everyone was left to finish what they had in the gloom. No member of staff came round to explain what was going on, how we would pay, if they knew what was happening. They just all seemed to disappear. They could have asked the kitchen staff to support informing people (as they weren't cooking anything thats for sure). The person in the softplay area just walked out and left it whilst children were still in there (subsequently helping themselves to the drinks fridge at the counter). There was no management at all. Improvements needed with management, staffing and menu choices (but I guess that's a head office decision). And like I said, we only go there because the softplay is reasonable and its location."

"Booked a table for two for our wedding anniversary. When we arrived the girl in jeans and a white shirt showed us to a table in the bar we said we want the restaurant to which she replied it’s closed! We ordered starters and my wife choice was not available, she made an alternative choice I ordered calamari which was inedible when it arrived, floppy and the sauce was awful. A young lad came and ask if everything was ok and I told him about the calamari and he apologised and took it away. Nothing from manager or chef to see what they could do! We ordered mains and my wife said she would like sweet potato fries in lieu of skin on chips and would pay any difference. The girl said that was not possible we would have to order an additional portion of the side dishes as they cost more! In astonishment I said look, on the sides menu skin on fries cost £4 and sweet potato fries £5 so charge me £1 more! This was to much for the brain of this girl who said she would have to ask the kitchen, to which I said you do that and we will tell you if we are going to eat here! She returned saying they would do it! Not surprising our mains were well overcooked maybe we should have left without eating as this was now clearly a battle of Wills! We declined desserts and asked for the bill. A chap on the only other table with dinners said! Well done, I had the same problem wanting ice cream instead of custard on my crumble. This used to be such a great place to eat!!!!! Will never return!!"

"I and my partner eat regularly in montaz since I moved to st. ives. Therefore, we have recommended it for a family meal that we have recently had the worst experience and will never walk back into the square. we arrived and we came. by not eating yet. it was a busy evening, but the customer service we received from the lady manager was anxious. we asked the place of stay of our meal(after she had stopped screaming at one of her workers). she sent a waiter and said mins at which point I said another waiter said half an hour ago. Now this may not seem a big problem, but due to my partner, who manages diabetics and already insulin, it had the potential to be a big one if we didn't eat soon. That's why I said if we don't eat in minutes, we have to go. at this point the dame started yelling at me, she threw her scary in wut and said I'll get her to eat. she fell into the kitchen and grabbed what our food was. she returned and threw our food on the table. the waiters were quite embarrassing and we too. we had kids at the table. the lady cried on us. “He doesn’t let me do my job,” aimed at me. “Why don’t they all go.” the supplied foods were not all correct. other tables had the same question, a group from the left near and where insulted by this dame. the restaurant was quickly empty. in fairness for the young waiters they continued to apologize for the behavior of the dame. they were very embarrassing. after eating the meal (and eating that arrived, was good why we had eaten them so long). we came to set up the bill. at this place we explained how this was not a good experience, we felt intimate, waited for almost hours to eat and the atmosphere in the restaurant was appalling. that sent the dame into another wut. she called us before the whole restaurant. to the happiness was one of their associates there. He supported all our claims (I feel for him) but she remained unified. I asked to get the cctw if she didn't do that. the restaurant offered to take our service fee from the bill. that was not acceptable. after mins of real argument. we had enough. the women were angry and angry at the point where we were afraid they would throw something on us. all the workers in the motaz were embarrassing, we were embarrassed. the co-worker did everything he could do to calm down the dame and pay our bill fair. but that was not possible. we offered to pay and that was generous when considering what had happened) she cried and accused. we have gone out. in fairness, the employee apologised very warmly and shook our hands. that do not. we like to support small, local businesses, but we will not recommend the montaz to anyone. to quote the table next to us (the left are) “We have come here for years and have never spoken so that I can’t come back here again”"
