"St. John's restaurant was possibly the worst restaurant meal I have ever had in England. And it was on the last night of my visit. I had hoped to have a good meal to celebrate my trip, but this ended my trip on a sour note. For dinner I ordered Potteed Shrimp, braised lamb shank and a class of Merlot. The potted shrimp consisted of tiny canned shrimp that looked as though they were cooked three days before and were in a greasy butter souplike fluid. They were disgusting. The lamb shanks also we're obviously cooked several days before, they were totally dried out and flavorless and served in a thick gravy that tasted instant and very salty. The shanks were served with mashed potatoes that were gluey. They tasted as though they may have been instant potatoes. And for some reason there were raw branches of Rosemary stuck in them. I barely ate any of the shrimp or the lamb, or the potatoes… And yet the server, who looked as though he was 18 years old, never asked if there was anything wrong. Even the class of wine was horrible. It tasted like it came from a bottle of €2 wine from the ASDA. The ambience was very 1960s… And not in a good way.I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone for any reason. The only positive remark I have to say is that I did not become ill after eating the food. The sad note is that after I left I walked passed what looked like a fabulous restaurant where I could have gone to actually have a great last night dinner."

"What a most unpleasant experience eating here. This is such a shame as it was our 4th time previously staying here and every time it has been fabulous food, service, accommodation. It seems to have new ownership and having being closed for a while has opened to very little staff serving the worst food I have ever been given. Firstly we ordered a bottle of Prosecco, it arrived, already opened with about 1/3rd gone from the bottle. This was quickly resolved. There was only one other table in the bar with us, yet once we ordered our food we waited about an hour. During this time we were told the ‘chef’ had to restart our order and we we offered a bowl of nuts. We ordered 3 cod and chips and 1 belly pork. When our food eventually arrived, I cut through my fish, which was still frozen and oozing with water. This could have made one of our party seriously Ill. the belly pork was bland, no colour, with a few veg that were limp to say the least. We told the manager, who was only on his first week of working there, who quickly took the food and asked if we wanted to eat anything else. We chose not to considering the poor quality food we were given. We did however decide to have a cheeseboard to share as we were so hungry. This arrived, with no crackers and one slice of stale bread. Again, inedible. We went to our room hoping that breakfast would be better. This in fact was just as bad. The black pudding was rock hard and the rest of the food Luke warm. We didn’t eat it and left straight away. I have been waiting to hear back from the owners with regards to an email I sent but after a week, am still waiting for a response! I will not go back here again which is such a shame! Avoid if you want to eat some nice food!"

"princes square houses numerous restaurants and another one has just the party above. which was between cranachan and zizzi earlier a small coffee shop, hidden behind it a lot of space. the man behind barca cranachan has gone all Americans on us and ny american grill is the result. the manager, leanne, explained how much research and preparation went into each element – from the selection of cocktails to the design of the restaurant. the big train for me is that they have a special jospur grill that was cooked food to 700 degrees to give a carburized taste without making anything bone dry. I have to admit that I managed to see burger in the minute, so was glad to open the menu and find (in addition to the burger) that we had been invited to get a proper food. that said, we started with the NY plate for two consisting of calamari, chicken wings, crabs and cheese wobble bonbons. the wings were chosen for our favorite – tasty without too thick sauce. I enjoyed the crab bites and I will be back to order them again and the bonbons made me feel cheeky, not exactly the healthiest things in the world (but oh so delicious). calamari needed a bit for my taste in terms of cooking time and seasoned, but without doubt they will perfect this in the time. I made an epic mistake at this place – I ordered a milkshake. I know I'm too excited and ordered most of the drink there before I eat my main course. I didn't have a real shake so long that I had to have it right away. When it arrived, it was a little weak on the earth's side, but as soon as I mentioned it to a worker, they pushed it away and made it new for me. after I was in the night before I know that they have to iron this kink, but I was impressed by how ready they were to make the dinge right for all. then there were ribs, because what is the dinner at an American joint without ripp? when we started eating, they seem a bit overdue, but actually they were cooked in the middle perfectly. they are served with mais and their own renovated koleslaw, but we ordered riders because it seemed strange not to have them. we both wanted steak, I had no doubt. I am a happy lady to have an understanding husband who will share all his food with me so I can write about it. ribeye has in the rule the sibling of the fat we are looking for without costing fat, so we went for the 10oz, but they can also get a 14oz. that was when the Jospur grill came in fruit. it was juicy and tasty (I think they would be a kind of precooking marinade on or something) and just all round delicious. the water circles, tomaten and pommes were ridicule-on and the pfeffer sauce we had chosen was a little over pfeffer, but excess of requirements anyway. on the other side called me the cocktail list and served as a fine sweet tasty bite. our waiter was eager to help ask what kind of cocktails I like, and thought I like a liberty rose. think they parma violet with a noble edge and some roses throw it, mmm!Cocktail wise herr s chooses in the rule an old fashion or a caipirinha and whisky won on this day. instead of being served only over ice, the cocktail came in a small crug on ice with the glass. someone at the table loved this idea and shows since humans. there were a few dings that need to be adapted, but overall we left with a really positive opinion of ny american grill. it will be convenient for post-shopping food and pre all cocktails. next time I feel mischievous and ready for some American dug I will be in, perhaps for the pre-theater menu.N.B - we got our food for half price as part of a VIP night. I was not obliged to write about the night, and this supplement contains my honest opinions."
