"We recently dined here and were disappointed. At £120 for 6 courses and snacks I would expect Michelin quality in food and service) but that was sadly not the case. We were asked to arrive at 1900 for 1930 but were left sitting in the bar area with nothing more than a tiny bowl of nuts and olives until 1945 by which time we were very hungry. The first course was a soy soaked cauliflower. Interestingly we’d had a cauliflower curry for supper the previous evening so I was looking forward to the stunning difference between the two. This one was effectively in a thai green curry sauce and I didn’t enjoy it. The sweetness of the scallop in the next course was obliterated in a bitter marmite tasting sauce and the cod was a little dry and when I looked at the 2inch long block of cod all I could think was that it was costing me £20). The service was also very slow which I think was being caused by a blockage in the kitchen as opposed to a lack of skill by the waiters although we did have to chase our drinks more than once as we didn’t do the wine pairing but ordered by the glass. All in all it felt a bit sloppy when you would expect rigour from a restaurant with a michelin star. Maybe this is because the chef who earned the star Hrishikesh Desai has moved onto pastures new. Sadly it seems he has taken his star with him."

"We visited HRiSHi to celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary while in the UK. After dining at various Michelin rated restaurants during our trip, our expectations were high. The food, presentation, and service at HRiSHi exceeded our expectations. Despite a last minute booking due to flight delays, we were able to secure a late reservation. Despite dealing with flight and family issues upon arrival, the staff made us feel welcome. From start to finish, our meal was perfect. My husband enjoyed the soft shell crab and lobster/stone bass, while I had the quail and lamb. Our meal at HRiSHi was one of the best we've had. We also plan to make a reservation at Spice for our next trip. HRiSHi is definitely a top restaurant in our UK visit."

"The five-course meal for £58 at Gilpin Lodge was good value, with perfectly cooked seabass, delicious canapes and lovely little amuse-bouches and palate cleansers. However, on arrival, we were left for an hour before being taken to our table, with no explanation until we made a fuss. It seemed they had no table for us and as we weren't hotel guests, we weren't a priority. We were then offered nothing by way of compensation for the wait. Luckily the food saved the night from being ruined."
