"Food was excellent and served quickly. There were of course on 4 people in the restaurant other than the staff. The steak was really really good and cooked exactly as I had asked for. I thought £3 for some horse radish on the side was ridiculous. The fact the everything is a side at additional cost is a bit much. Nothing was offered included in the price of the steak. So by the time you have say mashed potato, and two veg plus the horse radish you've added £21 to a £43 steak. Pity they no longer have table cloths so it no longer feels like fine dining for a fine dining price. However, the service was excellent as was the food hence the positive rating. The restaurant and its outside tables (in a narrow side street) are a bit gloomy compared with the old location."

"Terrible from start to finish. Service very very slow, we waited 30 mins for drinks and then the waiter had to be shown everything on the menu to take the order. The restaurant was very noisy, voices echo and the air con was so cold you froze in your seat. Most disappointing was the food. Expensive and steaks not cooked to standard ordered and served on cold plates. Filet steak £39 not cooked on one side at all! Served raw! Chewy ribeye and in no way worth the ridiculous prices. No trimmings all extra side orders, even chips at £5 extra were half empty. Will never return, paid half the bill and went elsewhere for dessert!!"

"Disappointing experience which did not reflect the good reviews I saw online. Service was very slow and intermittent. The waiter did not appear to take my allergy seriously. He was hard to understand communication was difficult but he appeared to make jokes about it, and then came back to the table twice to check again what it was (gluten, a very common allergy). This didn't give me any confidence that it would be properly addressed. The restaurant smelled stale and the table was sticky to the touch. Overall, a very disappointing experience and I am not likely to return."

"Pretty disappointed as it was my husband's 40th birthday treat. I've been here in the past on a number of occasions and have always felt in safe hands however the whole experience, this time, was underwhelming. Waiters did not seem confident with the menu. The starters were okay but generally lacklustre. The steak was very chewy and gristly and my cod dish was very green and slimy, lacking in flavour and any texture other than mush. The bread was delicious however I resent paying £90 odd quid for a meal where the bread is the highlight. Didn't risk dessert. Went to M&S instead."

"We opted for the set menu 3 x courses for £30 with a glass of bubbles. There were three choices for starters, main courses and 1 option of pudding or ice cream. I felt the choices were quite limited, another option would have been good. When we went to order we were told one of the starters wasn't available (Ham Hock), which we had all chosen. The alternative was Beef Tartar. We felt this an unusual choice and asked if there would be another option, we were told no, that is the option. We therefore decided to just go for two courses. The food we had was good, I had the Fishcake and my friends the Pie. We all then opted for Sticky toffee pudding (the only option). The set menu is good value, but it would be much more appealing to have more options, especially for a mid week quite bite. The service was good, and overall we enjoyed our evening."

"Truly awful! I keep going back here as it’s close to home . I wait a few months, book again on the hope it just gets better....I guess what was great today was that the awful filthy hops have at last been removed! The service was awful, starting with our waitress saying” your table is over there” , The food even more dreadful! Roast beef that was so tough and cold , we both asked for a steak knife just to cut it, but even that was no use. Roast potatoes not cooked properly. Considering this is a Lucky Onion property , it defies belief why they have not invested in it and the staff to make it close to their other Cheltenham locations with regard to standards. It might be close to home , but this really is my last time here until maybe it’s been completely overhauled ! However , when you go, you will always find it busy....I also know that I expect a lot from service ....so judge for yourself....but I’m done with it"

"Nice place but we visited on a cold day and and if you weren’t seated directly in front of the open fire it was chilly in the restaurant . Also some of the food needed to be hotter than served. And I totally disagree with the service charge, on our bill it was £30 thank goodness it was discretionary the service certainly didn’t live up to that high charge. That should be removed entirely and left at the customers discretion. Kind of changed the mood of the lunch which was a shame."

"My daughter and I went to San Carlo on New Years day my daughter had booked a table for 3.30pm it was very busy when we got there .We were asked if we had booked and we said yes there were three people in front of us who had not booked and were given a table .My daughter and I were sent downstairs and had to wait 20 minutes then we were seated downstairs .The attitude of the staff there was not good the only person that seemed to bother was the lady taking the money.Will be a long time before I go there again I was appalled at the service."

"Absolutely superb Italian restaurant, the best in Leeds/Bradford area. Great food from extensive menu. Sea food platter starter a revelation in particular. Great service from friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic atmosphere and attractive decor. In a good location. Highly recommended particularly for a special occasion. Will be back for our wedding anniversary."

"Off night?. Visited San Carlo on a Sunday evening based on a recommendation from a well travelled friend. Lets start with the positives. Wine list was excellent and the shared starter of mixed cured meat was attractive, tasty and high quality. Unfortunately, everything else was disappointing. The risotto I had was re-heated and served in a cream laden sauce to compensate for the lack of basic technique. My partners pasta arrived with a completely different sauce to the one described in the menu (creamy, with Parmesan added despite her requesting no cheese versus the tomato). The waiter took it away and replaced it with the exact same plate (and sauce) with a few cherry tomatoes added and...read more"

"Last weekend I was invited to review Fish Market in Liverpool Street. Loved by celebrities including Millie Mackintosh, Fish market is situated in the ground floor of the Old Bengal Warehouse. With a cosy outside terrace, Fish Market brings the seaside delights of the coast into the heart of the City. As a bonus, Fish Market has launched their Funfair menu, giving exhausted shoppers a relaxing spot to head to after a long day's Christmas shopping. We arrived shortly after 6pm, thus the restaurant was very quiet with only a few diners sat out on the terrace. We were quickly seated inside the restaurant as although the terrace is heated and blankets are provided, I was much too cold to...read more"

"We approached the restaurant to see from the window that no one was inside which was worrying. I was put off and contemplated finding another restaurant. Called to ask if they was even open and turns out you have to enter and go downstairs. First impression wasn't great. Service was okay and the restaurant looked nice. I ordered the Fillet medium rare, what came was not medium rare but more medium well done, my wife ordered the chicken which was lovely. I was offered a replacement but I didn't want to wait whilst my wife had eaten her food."

"First and foremost, the service was excellent! Our server was funny, friendly and attentive, really can't fault her at all! The food was decent. We started with the seafood platter and all was very tasty though a little sparse for the price. Would suit 2 or 3 people, but for 4 it isn't a lot. The fish and chips was met with approval, so was the seabream on specials. The roasted cod dish was very nice though perhaps a little fussy? Could probably do with one less ingredient as the fish drowned in the other tastes, but it was nice and the fish very well made. The ambience gets a downgrade as there were a table of influencers in the middle of the room with a great big portable spotlight (to better light the food they weren't eating until it went cold??? which was highly distracting together with their constant photographing. I wish the restaurant hadn't put them right in the middle of the restaurant, it was annoying. Other than that, the restaurant was lovely and does warrant a return visit!"

"Absolutely awful!. So my boss is going off on maternity leave and we decide to have lunch for 10 at Plateau on a £15 deal for 3 courses which sounded like good value. Our booking was at 1pm and we arrived to have a choice of 3 starters 2 of which were salad and 1 soup and 3 mains. We were told on arrival they had run out of steak despite our booking being at lunch time so I decided to have a salad as a main instead! the starter arrive and the salads were not looking fresh! Brown lettuce, over dressed euuggh, although I had the gazpaucho which was good, I decided to change my main to the fish! Service was awful we weren't offered any drinks and then finally asked for a wine...read more"

"The staff was incredibly rude, we had a reservation at 20:30 and we arrived there around 20:15. The staff refused to seat us and made us wait until our reservation time while they were seating walk-ins before us. At 20:30 we got seated at a table that was so cramped that it was impossible to be seated without touching people on the next table. The waiter was rude and snappy. He took our order and 10 mins later comes back to check what the order was, since he forgot what we asked for. The food was alright, nothing memorable. But the service was poor and I would never visit again or recommend to anyone."

"The atmosphere is lovely and the view is beautiful, the staff is friendly. The cocktails are good and in a normal price The only thing we did not like is the food. Especially for a French restaurant which should have much better food than other restaurants. The food was tasteless and uncooked properly. The salmon was a bit raw. The risotto did not look fresh and it was uncooked. The asparagus was raw which doesn’t taste good at all. If we decide to go again, it will only be for drinks cocktails and enjoying the view. Not for dinner. Overall we paid for two people, two course menu with nibbles and a cocktail each. This is a reasonable price but it would have been better if the food was nice."
