"I can't figure out why this restaurant has a 4-star rating. It's just average, the restaurant is in poor condition, and the food is mediocre at best. I wouldn't consider it authentic or tasty. I decided to give it a shot based on the reviews and was very let down. Open Table should carefully review the feedback and take into account if some of it is biased towards the restaurant."

"I was super excited for this restaurant to open in my neighborhood and be available on Deliveroo. However, I was incredibly disappointed with the portion sizes. We had a half full container of crispy beef floss, coated in batter that cost £13! The other items that we ordered were overly sweet and tasted very one dimensional. We ordered two different kinds of noodles they both tasted pretty much the same and lacked flavor. Incredibly disappointing and overpriced. The portions are tiny. I think the money that you're paying is going towards packaging. The food arrived hot and in an insulated bag. Everything was packaged well. I just wish it tasted as good as it looked."

"first time at this place, we ordered the chicken crumbburger with Masala chips. the Masala chips were extremely soggy and the tang of the tomats was overwhelming and completely open, disgusting. the chips are not true for their average Masala style taste. on the other side, the Hühnchen-Krümelburger was charming. it had crisp and texture on the outside, while it remained soft and delicate on the inside. overall, this place has a slow service, but the quality of the burger makes up for it."

"The staff was friendly and the menu was great. The taste combinations were thoughtful and well executed. The portion sizes were good, and I enjoyed three courses without feeling overcrowded. The wine pairing was great. The winter garden was a bit cool, but it didn't take away from the excellent food. The atmosphere was lacking something, but that can be hit or miss with hotel restaurants. Adding descriptions to the gin list in the beverage menu would improve it. It was nice to see local products being used. Overall, it was very good and I will definitely return."

"To put the scenario in context……..we have just returned from travelling overseas for my husbands 70th birthday holiday and I had promised him a Thai meal Thai food is a favourite of ours) when we returned…so I booked The Blue Orchid at the Verve hotel. We arrived and the place was absolutely empty. We were shown to the only table which had menus on it. We knew what we wanted as we had looked at the menu online earlier in the day. We ordered Set Menu A and two diet cokes and some prawn crackers. The starters arrived and after eating a few bits of battered vegetables, I managed to get the attention of the waitress and asked to see the menu again so we knew what we were eating, because I was pretty certain it said satay chicken and tiger prawns. The menu came back and I asked what we had been served because it had no resemblance to the menu description. The waitress apologised and said she had thought we had said Set Menu B …we said categorically not we had clearly said A. The waitress went to get her senior and we repeated the problem. The senior member of staff assured us we would get Set A main courses. The original waitress apologised again and I pointed out that menu A&B had the same starters and she said that the chef had misheard her and cooked menu D starters which were all vegetarian. She then asked which of the A starters we would still like. We agreed we’d like the tiger prawns and chicken satay served with the main course. Some time later the main course was delivered by the original waitress and her senior. I asked her senior where the main course tiger prawns were and what was the food on the table because once again it resembled nothing like what we had ordered. She said she would go and ask the chef and off she went. We divided the rice in half and ate the starter prawns and satay which were cold…at which point the other waitress disappeared….we waited a while for someone to return and then we started eating the duck and chicken. After a while I called out was someone going to come and talk to us about the food. The senior waitress and the original waitress returned and said they would make an adjustment to the bill. I said that wasn’t acceptable as we had deliberately chosen that menu to eat prawns and because it had no chilli. I asked to speak to the manager. When he arrived he went into a tirade saying he wouldn’t have his staff shouted at or spoken to the way we had spoken to them….we had been in normal voice and very polite, considering they had completely ruined my husbands birthday meal. The manager was shouting at us “did we want the meal removed and set meal A cooked for us yes or no “ he kept repeating “yes or no”. My husband, a quiet man, told him we wanted him to listen to our complaint and explain why we had been assured we would get Menu A after the starter mixup and we were still not served what we had ordered. The manager didn’t reply he constantly interrupted and spoke over us and I told him at least twice to stop being so rude to us both…he still kept shouting “Do you want this replaced with menu A, yes or no” We finally said no. I said, I no longer wanted to eat as I was very upset and I apologised to my husband for his disastrous 70th birthday meal. The manager said we needn’t pay for the meal….as if that made it OK. He then stormed off. I put £10 on the table to pay for our drinks and the prawn crackers which were the only thing we had which we had actually ordered. The waitress said we didn’t need to. But I left it there. As we went past reception I waited for the manager to finish booking 3 people in and told him I had left £10 to pay for the drinks and crackers, and that his behaviour was an absolute disgrace. We were absolutely amazed at this shameful behaviour of the manager. The waitresses had had polite and civil conversation and we had been polite in return..if telling someone that it was unacceptable to continuously serve food completely different from what has been ordered is being rude, I wonder how one can convey the situation to the staff…neither me or my husband shouted or raised our voices but the manager didn’t even ask us what the problem was he just steamed into us…..this establishment doesn’t deserve to be in business if this is how it’s managed…it’s no wonder it was completely empty in its restaurant. I can honestly say we will never be going again neither will any of our family or friends."

"I went to this restaurant last Saturday for my friend's birthday drinks after going to Firenze. We had cocktails and nibbles at the bar, where there was a great atmosphere and excellent table service. We never had to wait for a drink! We tried several cocktails which were all delicious and well-presented. We also shared the antipasti platters, which had a wide selection of tasty nibbles. It was a fantastic way to celebrate my friend's birthday in style, and I have already recommended it to many of my other friends. I am also currently in the process of booking my work Christmas celebration here. It is definitely a place that I highly recommend."

"The restaurant has a very friendly and helpful staff, with a menu clearly indicating which dishes can be made vegan. The food is both tasty and affordable, and the atmosphere is lovely. The only downside is that the cocktail menu is not clearly labeled, and some drinks may contain non-vegan ingredients such as Baileys or egg white."

"I don't usually read previous reports before composing my thoughts on any place I have visited but I made an exception here and I have to say I'm dumfounded by the recent negative reviews of this restaurant.Personally, I found it amazing. Indeed, the fayre was top notch, as was the service. We were a group of and we had a fabulous time.Yes, it is pricey and not somewhere most people could afford to patronise every week but for a special occasion it is the bees knees. Will stay in the memory for a long time."

"This restaurant offers delicious Thai cuisine upstairs, with an old English pub on the ground floor. The exterior may not be impressive, but don't let that deter you - it's worth giving it a try. You won't regret it."
