"The service was excellent, but we waited for 40 minutes without realizing it. The delivery driver claimed he knocked on the door, but he didn't. Our two dogs were going crazy! However, the food was returned and it was delicious. Thank you for the prompt second delivery. I highly recommend this restaurant. The food is amazing and the prices are very reasonable."

"I reserved the Bistro for my 60th Birthday dinner with a party of 24. We chose the 2 course Celebration menu, which was a fixed price and perfect for our group. The food was outstanding on the night, the service was exceptional, and everyone enjoyed their meals. I believe the restaurant may have gained some new customers from our experience. They even took care of cutting and packaging my birthday cake since we were all too full to eat anymore. My birthday celebration at the Bistro was everything I had hoped for!"

"Called in here completely by chance on our way back to England from Scotland for some lunch and so glad we did. The staff were super friendly and attentive and service is quick. The menu is extremely extensive, featuring both traditional and more alternative and interesting dishes. There really is a dish for every palate. We were spoilt for choice! I had the steak pie and the wife had twice cooked pork belly, and both were divine. We left extremely full and satisfied. The quality of the food is exquisite, proper home cooked, the portions are a good size and the prices and very reasonable the perfect recipe for a successful food business. Well done to the owners and don’t change a thing! I cannot recommend the Crown Inn highly enough."

"Don’t know what’s happened to Zucca but it’s not the restaurant it used to be. Sat next to the bar where the waitress was clattering everything about, doesn’t make for a relaxing evening. When you charge £34 for a fillet steak you would expect it to be top notch but instead it was chewy and not a good cut of beef. Truffle and Parmesan fries had to ask for Parmesan to sprinkle over them!! Arrabbiata was passable but have had better elsewhere. Deserts cheesecake, couldn’t get the spoon through the base, described as vanilla and honeycomb flavour but tasteless, really poor. Pineapple carpaccio with the panna cotta should be thin not chunks, think they desperately need a pastry chef. Staff disengaged! Overpriced mediocrity!"

"First time experiencing this restaurant but have passed it many times. We thought we would experience the steak dinner deal. The food was nicely presented and cooked well although there could have been more salad). We shared and thoroughly enjoyed the Ginger Pudding. The service was perfect and the atmosphere itself, warm and welcoming. We will return and therefore, recommend. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £10–20 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Sticky Ginger Pudding"
"Arrived for dinner and drinks with a few girlfriends. Saw the cheese pull on the garlic bread from a viral TikTok and knew we had to try. Guy who seated us was eccentric but charming and efficient. Ordered our drinks from a good selection and all going well. Starter came out. They were nice. I ordered bruschetta which was nice. The mains really let it down through. The lasagne was burnt, dry and stodgy and the “garlic bread” was toasted cheese so disappointed. My friend pollo Milanese which was tasteless. My friend has a pizza and that was delicious she said. I would have made a compliant and sent it back but there wasn’t a single waiter or waitress to be seen for about 20 minutes. No one asked how our meal was, offered us any more drinks (we only had the one as they didn’t offer us another! . Overall TikTok fad it seems and super disappointed."
"The overall experience at this restaurant was fantastic until we reached the dessert course. After being asked if we wanted dessert and given menus, the staff seemed to ignore us as they walked back and forth to the kitchen. The same waitress who initially asked us about dessert walked past us multiple times without acknowledging us. Eventually, we had to ask a different waiter for the bill, paid, and left. The food was delicious, but some staff members appeared disinterested as the evening quieted down. I would consider returning in the future, but not anytime soon."

"Unfortunately, I will not be returning in a hurry. Having previously enjoyed a meal at their restaurant in Carluke, we were excited to try this one. However, everything from the decor to the food and service fell short of our expectations. The food was mediocre at best, nothing particularly noteworthy and definitely not as delicious as what we had experienced in the Carluke location. The waitress appeared disinterested in serving us, more focused on other things happening around her. After our main course, we decided to find another place to dine. We may give it another chance in the future."

"What a fabulous restaurant! The menu was comprehensive, the food was delicious, the service fantastic and the price exceptionally reasonable. We had birthday lunch with my father for his 80th birthday. We ate from the fixed-price lunch menu £20 for two courses, £25 for three) and all four of us cleared our plates of all three courses. It was absolutely delicious, faultlessly cooked from quality ingredients and beautifully presented. The staff could not do enough for us. They made a fuss of my father, printed out a special menu wishing him a happy birthday, and gladly took our cake and produced it with our coffee. It was much appreciated. The toilets were absolutely spotless. We intend to return soon and we very much look forward to it."

"Glad to have chosen Il Capriccio for the first restaurant to visit post-lockdown. Called ahead to book a slot to visit due to current distancing measures in place. Continues to serve exceptional pizza and pasta with friendly service. Restaurant is a small space but is able to social distance due to layout of tables. This results in a relaxed atmosphere. Look forward to returning soon."

"I was excited to attend this restaurant for my partner's birthday due to good reviews. However, the service was extremely poor. We were only given 1 drink at the start of the meal and no offer was made for further drinks. One main meal never arrived after approximately 45 minutes, and when I asked about it, I was told the kitchen was busy and they only have 2 hands. We had to wait for another half hour for someone to take payment, only to be told that we pay on the way out and not at the table - this was not explained to us beforehand. Overall, the whole experience was disappointing and ruined what should have been a good night. We are big sushi fans, but we will not be returning to this restaurant."

"visited this bakery during the journey through carnwath on my way to dunsyre. in the inner it looked like an old school bakery with ovens and other bakers. it was even freshly baked from the many, so that is a good sign. since I was only on the way to little sparta, I only ordered a tee and apple turnover as a snack. one of the best Apple sales I had in one. fresh cream, brownish pebbles, hard to complain. they even have sugar alternatives for my tee. the employees are also welcoming and friendly here as they would expect in a small city. the only part is that they do not accept cards, but only cash."

"Firstly, let’s say I was disappointed to be called two hours before our table booking to be told the usual menu of the day £20 for 3 courses was not going to be available and only festive menu. I had specifically booked to avoid festive menus, and now no choice , and an extra £25 cost added for our family of 5 £25 each for 3 courses . Restaurant was busy, seated for 10 minutes before drinks order taken, and no one offered to hang up jackets…although they did for the table of ten who arrived behind us. Hmmm. Menu was OK nice choice, but my wife and son had to send back the “breaded mushrooms with brie and mozzarella” starters as they were in fact dry and without any cheese. Replacement alternate starters OK. My main course salmon was lovely but my other son complained his burger with cheese and cranberry had so much cranberry it was bitter tasting. Desserts were nothing special and caramel cake base was lumpy crushed digestives. Overall the meal was mediocre at best and can’t say I’ll be back in a hurry. £188 for Saturday lunch for 5 was not great value including two bottles of wine ."

"I was fortunate enough to be given a voucher to visit this restaurant. I can honestly say I wasn’t disappointed. Despite being an almost local restaurant, I had never visited before this visit. On entering I was pleasantly surprised by the layout of the restaurant....It’s not the biggest of places, but I suspect it can handle around customers, over a mix of seat booths and person tables. The decor is simple and adds to the atmosphere of the premises. We were met at the entrance by the waitress on duty, she was immediately very friendly, took our details and temperature’s. We were then led to one of the booths which are very good for couples. The menu has a mix of meat dishes, pasta dishes and fish dishes, plus starters. The selection of choices is of perfect size. The waitress (I am sorry not to remember her name) also talked through the specials available. I don’t want to go to deeply into what we ordered, but I can highly recommend the lobster ravioli . Our entire order of starters, mains and desserts were wonderful, my partner recommends the chefs own made tiramisu. There is also a really nice wine menu available. Stefanos is definitely well worth a visit, and we will definitely be returning. My thanks to Stef, chef and owner, who made us a wonderful meal and also took the time to leave the kitchen to come over and speak with us. And also many thanks to our waitress who was simply wonderful."

"in recent years I have written a series of 5 star reviews about the punjabi tadka, as the quality of all food was exceptionally good. last night I have made my first delivery order since ende januar 2022 and was very disappointed by food quality. I will give feedback to any item in my delivery so that the owner will address what a problem with the kitchen staff or cook 1) poppadoms x 2: perfect as always 2) pink pakora sauce x2: thine runny submissive tasteless sauce. probably diluted with milk 3) chicken pakora x 2. bland coated deep fried chicken. no flavor of seasoned or cumin 4) huh bhuna x1. excessively spicy, sauce too thick and under seasoned with distinct lack of a hair 5) chicken chasni x 1. sauce was thin, much too sour, not sweet enough and under seasoned with distinct lack of han at the owners of the restaurant. the reason why they are recognized as the best Indian restaurant in east kilbride and probably the best in south lanarkshire is that they have been cooking high-quality, tasty food for years. I have written them so many 5 star reviews about the years because I realized that their team perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned foods with the best seasoned, crumble and spicy to create. inappropriate, last night meal not the 5 stars quality I have come to expect. if you want to keep their local legendary status, I suggest that you check my feedback about eating yesterday evening and have a word with whoever is their new cook, as they don't give out good food. we hope that my next order meets the 5 stars standard that I expected in the years that I am a loyal customer."

"Visited last week for lunch with a friend. We were provided the lunch menu which is a starter and main course for just over £12. There was the option of a vegetarian starter of crispy spring rolls which I chose but surprisingly no vegetarian main course dishes available. I asked the waitress if I could have one of the meat main course dishes but with tofu instead as they offer tofu on multiple dishes on their main menu. I was advised this wasn’t possible with no explanation. I advised I was vegetarian and none of these main course dishes were a suitable option. I was advised I could pick any of the dishes and it would just be served as vegetables in the chosen sauce. I then offered to pay a supplement to get tofu instead but was still advised this wasn’t possible. Again, with no reason as to why this would be the case. I went ahead with the vegetables in a sweet and sour sauce. The food was pretty average and the customer service was poor. With so many other decent restaurants in the local area, I won’t be back and wouldn’t recommend it!"

"First time and last time ordering from here... Menu seemed great and delivery time was the usual, however they only delivered half the order. I called and was told that 'in 5mins ' the driver would be back.... 11mins later, knock at door with a cold meal, thrust into the hands of my other half, who said 'it 's freezing... ' and got I know in reply, as the driver walked away. But again the order was incomplete. Phoned to complain yet again (and despite this, its something we never do... and was told they would send a fresh one and they would take the other one back (sincerely hope that wasn 't sent to anyone ... Finally after more than another half hour, a fresh delivery made, but the quality of the meal was poor: it was clear that it was made with cash n carry chicken chunks (precooked/ frozen and dropped into the curry. They were bland, tough and the foxes got it. When I called back to actually give them a complaint (as opposed to asking where the food was, and chasing up missing items... the girl I spoke to was nice and she tried her best with the manager but he wouldn 't come to the phone, and offered no explanation or apology. When you pay cash you 're never going to get any refund. As I said at the start, first time ever ordering here, and completely the last. I know takeaways are busy but it 's no excuse for poor service AND duff food. We didn 't eat our meal together and I threw most of mine away. Save your money or pay by credit card so you can get some recompense at least."

"Just stopped in while on a business trip. The place was busy which is always an indicator to how good the food could be. The waitress was attentive and quick even during the busy period we visited. Always asking if we need a drink, how is the food etc. Chicken wings here are some of the best I've tasted. The platter shared between 2 was huge and came with generous sized various dips. The burgers were nice but the topped fries were really the standout piece of the meal. The pulled Brisket was tasty and chips plentiful all served on a cast iron pan. Would definitely recommend a visit here if you like American style food. Thanks for the grub!"
