"The food was excellent, but the service left much to be desired. The staff were quite pushy about taking our order, which didn't allow us much time to peruse the menu. This may have been influenced by the current restrictions, but it felt a bit overwhelming. Additionally, they served all the food at once. While the quality of the food was impressive, the staff could have been more friendly and personable instead of coming across as robotic."

"Visited Mews Brasserie for the first time for Sunday lunch which was most enjoyable and good value. The only down side to the meal was that cauliflower cheese isn't on the menu. The restaurant has cauliflower and naturally cheese but despite our request it wasn't possible to amalgamate the 2. This isn't a complaint as I understand that kitchen's are under pressure during service but by going that extra step would have turned the experience into a 5 out of 5 rather than a 4. The service was freindly, unhurried and efficient and there is a good selection of wines reasonably priced given the location. I would definitely return to sample the A La Carte menu."

"One of our favorites in Edinburgh. We always start off our week at the Fringe here and every time we're impressed by the menu, ingredients, service and wine selection. This place is a hidden gem which many locals don't know about, don't miss out if you're in Edinburgh!!!"

"Had a table booked for 4 and at very short notice (15 minutes) I increased it to 10. They were happy to have the increase and catered very well. The food was good. The service was good. The bill was split between families in such away that each family paid for what they had had. The whole experience was brilliant. Thank you to the staff that served us. Only 3 of us this time but as good as before. Will definitely be going there again. Food: 5"

"Unfortunately our experience was not that great in the end for our Sunday lunch. The food was nice and the garden was good for the kids. However they didn’t take off our £20 deposit paid upfront because the booking system and billing system doesn’t link up. They told us it would take 10 days to refund which I wasn’t impressed with. Don’t book in advance and pay the deposit as it caused us a lot of hassle in the end to sort out."

"bookable for 3, which a child, turned to find over 20 people outside waiting for entry. from others waiting in wait, a mistake was found in the booking system so that all table bookings were accepted, but they did not honor any of them. it had come first, served first. over 20 minutes asked, and the feedback from customers who go, it was 2 hours to eat dinner dinner, since service was slow. even if we have made it inside, that a handwritten statement on the wall said that the card machine was broken, so that only cash would be accepted. was there with a child and had booked before the concert later in the evening. decided after 45 minutes waiting time that we had to go to another place to make sure we had a dinner before the concert. at no time has anyone from the restaurant talked to the people in the waiting queue while we were there. a great experience. will not be able to reserve table again if this is how they treat people."

"I had the worst restaurant experience in Edinburgh at this place. The food was not good (we ordered the chili chicken ramen, regular chicken ramen, and vegetable gyoza). The service was really bad too. My friend got their food but I had to wait over 20 minutes because no one checked on us. I had to ask a different server for my food, and it wasn't even being prepared. Definitely not worth it. If you want ramen, go to Maki and Ramen instead - it's much better. There are also better Asian food options in town."

"Have not been to the Chop House for years but really enjoyed my last visit. All members of staff we came across with were very friendly and efficient. The food was delicious as usual. We opted in for a set menu and I had a mackerel salad which reminded me of Niçoise salad, with an egg, plenty of mackerel and French beans, my friend enjoyed Haggis fritters. For the main I had a ham hock which came with thick cut chips, they were crispy from the outside and fluffy inside and runny yolk duck egg, absolute perfection. Dessert was a classic Sticky toffee, I have had it many times in the past and was pleasantly surprised that the recipe hasn't changed, it is absolutely delicious, generous portion swerved with vanilla ice cream and toffee sauce. We really enjoyed our meal and service from the moment we arrived and left. Thank you"

"We arrived for a family birthday and were seated and had a drinks order taken. Myself and another one of the party ordered a blackberry gin with lemonade, the waitress then came back to inform us that they had no blackberry gin left so offered us black cherry which we were happy to have, they were then brought to us for us to discover they had used tonic as the mixer instead of lemonade, annoying but not worth making a fuss. We then ordered food, with one of the party being vegan, she opted for the vegan nachos to start and the vegan Cajun burger. The waitress then came back to inform us that there was no vegan cheese so would she want it without which she accepted. Our starters came after a wait but were enjoyable, we then had our mains which were a completely different story. Our veggie Cajun burgers were black and burnt, had dry buns and had very hard chunks throughout inedible. There was also no vegan slaw as listed and the portion size of the chips was poor. We didn’t get a table check and had to grab the attention of a waiter to inform him that we weren’t able to eat them, he was polite and apologetic and took them back to the kitchen but we weren’t offered anything else to eat. Another member of the party had the breakfast burger with the most rubbery fried egg, definitely left and reheated. As he made it to the kitchen we overheard the waitresses asking him if we wanted desserts repeatedly, feeling very much like they wanted us gone ASAP as they were all focused on cleaning up instead of attending to tables. When they brought us the desert menu we all found something we’d like, but again no one checked on us for a good 15 20 minutes, by which point we just wanted to go. Strange considering how eager they sounded to get us out of the door. We asked for the bill, with the Cajun burgers thankfully taken off, but still an expensive meal considering the poor experience. Incredibly dissatisfied with both the food and the service and we will definitely not be returning."

"Our first visit to this tapas bar on Orford Road was stellar: blink and you'd think you were on holiday in Spain instead of Walthamstow, especially with the balmy evenings we had a few weeks ago.The aubergine batons are a must-order: lightly battered and drizzled in honey, they're irresistible when hot. The mussels and clams are also winners, cooked in white wine and garlic. I was disappointed with our paella mixta, which was over salted and undercooked ... the rice was a bit too hard for my liking and didn't have enough flavor. Still, I'd take friends and family here but will stick to the tapas for our next visit."

"Having a coffee at this café was reminiscent of being in Tel Aviv. Noisy traffic, people speaking on their phones in Ivrit, orthodox Jews strolling by and a laid back atmosphere. Even the plumbing was very Israeli. The toilets were very clean but the taps were coming away from the sink. It was a cold day in August, which is definitely not typical of Israel and we were seated outside as a Covid precaution. The friendly staff did offer at least twice to turn on the external heaters which would have been nice, but when we left some 20 minutes later the heaters had still not come on. Well it's the thought that counts ....."

"I had the pleasure of being served breakfast by Faith during my stay at the Dakota Hotel, and I must say that her service was exceptional. Faith was not only attentive but also incredibly helpful throughout my stay. She went above and beyond to ensure that I had a wonderful dining experience each morning. Her warm and friendly demeanor added a special touch to my stay, making it truly memorable. I greatly appreciate her dedication to providing outstanding service, and I highly recommend Faith to anyone visiting the Dakota Hotel. Thank you, Faith, for making my stay so enjoyable!"

"We used to frequent this pub often in the past, but heard that it had changed ownership, so we decided to meet our friends here. We were excited to catch up with friends we hadn't seen in a while. However, when we arrived, my husband inquired about their ale selection and was informed they only had Harveys with no other options. The server who brought our drinks had dirty fingernails, which was off-putting. When it came time to order food, one of our friends asked about a Christmas menu and was told it needed to be pre-ordered, as stated on their website. Despite our frequent visits in the past, we had not checked the website. The food was tasty, but the service was lacking. We had to request drinks and were not asked about our meals once they arrived. At 9:40, a lady approached us with the bill and informed us they were closing soon. When we asked for another drink, we were denied. My husband requested to remove the service charge, which caused some tension with the lady taking payment. She questioned why he wouldn't pay it, stating that everyone charges it, which we found rude. Overall, the poor service has discouraged us from returning or recommending the pub to others, despite the delicious food. It's disappointing, as we had hoped the new management would focus on attracting and retaining customers."

"We've drank and eaten in this pub since moving to the area 8 years ago. It's always had potential, with a seperate dining room, bar and outside area but nobody has ever put the effort in... Until Now! Visiting today, the dining area has been re-decorated, pool table re-surfaced, new TVs, outside area going through a refit etc. New beer lines being added.. This should soon be a contender to the popular locals Red Lion and Markeaton. Bar staff always friendly and approachable, great family pub. Speaking to the new manager, it's clear he cares about the pub doing well, and is already putting in the hard work. It's a Stonegate pub, so you get the great food and prices and regular updates to the menu. I mean who can go wrong with a alcoholic drink and burger for less than £10! Weely quiz every Thursday which you can do on your smartphone and play for big prizes nationally. Keep up the good work and we wish you every success for the future"

"Mildreds is a staple of the London Vegan Scene. I can't believe I’m only writing a review of it now We went to the branch in Soho before watching Les Mis and decided to just share a few of the small plates instead of having a big plate and some starters, as we would normally do. You get to try a lot more things this way, and their small plates are delicious! Honestly, there wasn't anything we ate that I wouldn't order again, but there were definitely a couple of standouts that I hope they never take off the menu. Topping the list is their Sweet Potato Leek Tortelloni, which comes with a lovely leek cream that is somehow both rich and smooth. Also amazing is their Whipped F'ta topped with roasted cherry tomatoes and oregano which is just perfect to dip their grilled pita on. There's still so much on their menu that I haven't tried. I absolutely must go again soon! Overall: 9.5/10 Fully Vegan What we ate: "

"We were really looking forward to this meal on a Saturday evening. The lady that welcomed us was fine. The person who served us wasn’t as much. We tried to order 4 different things to be told none were available. Asked for chicken wings was told no but had wings on our gym junkie meal? Food took ages to come out we had to ask for it, when I looked there was 15 plates waiting to come out the kitchen. A couple on the table by us walked out after waiting so long, we were close to following if one of the other members of staff hadn’t said it would be 5 minutes. The only toilet available was 1 disabled toilet downstairs, we were told by our original server she would get us when it was empty, she never did. The food when it came out was okay the Mac and Cheese was nothing like what I’ve seen on Instagram may we because it has been under a lamp for so long. The food was okay, I don’t blame the kitchen as the food was coming out but no one was bringing it to the tables. It’s a shame the visit was so disappointing as he were really looking forward to it, but the service wasn’t great and put us off."

"What a delicious dover sole I had. The salad was really fresh and the king prawns in olive oil and garlic sauce was impressively tasty. Toilets are immaculately clean, the owner is polite and attentive. Really fancy set up and service. Dont you love fine dining? Proper Napkins and crisp white table cloth chateu neufe red was also a delight for my taste buds. It was a business dinner but will go back I think."

"we came here for a quiet drink and stayed for dinner. the pizzas had to die. I had my dog with me and asked if they had something for them. they rusted a nice little food for them, and went over one beyond that we were happy. Actually, the service was impeccable. I will go back to any event when I visit London/Twickenham."
