"We order from the canton Wiwo at least once a month and have always found the food delicious and the staff friendly. We decided to try the City Centre shop last week what a mistake that was! Our food took over 2 hours to arrive but with it being a Friday night we let that slide. While we were waiting a Adriana phoned and I quote said ‘You wanted chilli chips, no’ after some questioning we realised that a sleeping sounding Adriana was trying to tell us that they had run out of chips. She did however offer to change the order to rice and said she would add a bottle of coke due to us paying extra for the chips, we agreed that this was fine and thanked her for the heads up. When the food arrived (without the promised drink) it was stone cold but we were so hungry by then we tucked straight in. The Katsu chicken was burnt and the rice was gooey and over cooked, both totally inedible. Our saving grace was the fact that we ordered satay chicken scewers as sides. We opened the chicken and after dipping one into the sauce my partner stopped me from eating it. He had realised that they had replaced the peanut sauce with a pot of mayonnaise instead (I’m not allowed to eat mayo due to a health condition). This was alarming so we phoned the shop straight away to discuss all issues above. The still sleepy Adriana admitted to adding Mayo instead of the usual peanut sauce because they had run out. I explained that this was disappointing as she had already phoned us to say they didn’t have any chips and asked why she hadn’t mentioned this so we could alter our order, to which she replied ‘don’t know’. We again mentioned all of our other issues including the fact that the food was totally inedible and Adriana asked ‘What do you want me to do?’ I suggested a refund as they were unable to fulfil the order we had placed. She agreed and said she would pass our details onto her manager. I asked when we would receive the refund and she said up to 5 working days. Skip to today (5 working days later). I call to ask about our refund only to be greeted by the rudest girl I have ever had the displeasure of talking to. She told me I’d have to call back to talk to that specific girl at a time that was inconvenient to me. I explained that my issue was with the company rather than a specific member of staff so I just wanted an update on the refund. She refused to listen to my request and talked over me. I asked her name and she refused to give it to me so I asked for her managers contact details which she also refused to give to me. Then she had the audacity to say ‘you’re not getting your refund so what are you going to do about it?’ And put the phone down! Although it was inconvenient I later called the store again and thankfully the cal was answered by Adriana. I explained I was calling about the refund that she had promised the previous week and she handed the phone to yet another college. This girl said that she had been filled in and that they were going to refund £5 of the order. I obviously voiced that this was unacceptable as the whole order was inedible. She asked why I hadn’t sent it back to be replaced. I explained that we had already waited 2 hours for our cold order, it had already come back wrong and also that this wasn’t given to me as an option. We were simply asked, what do you want me to do about it? The girl said sorry but my manager has spoken to the chef and we can only give you £5 back. End of story basically, absolutely shocking!"

"we noticed this beautiful little restaurant after we recently moved to the local opposite and visited last night. we were welcomed by 2 very friendly servers and our selection of tables offered. there is so much to choose without overwhelming the menu. Finally we decided to share the special mixed tempura (prawns, avocado, sweet potato and aubergine deep roasted in a delicious thick teig) and takoyaki (battered octopus balls in yaki sauce with mayo) both appetitzüglers were delicious, but the takoyaki was from this world and I could eat it all day! we both knew that we wanted to ramen, as we had heard, that in contrast to many other Leeds-based restaurants, the ramen here comes with their choice of suppen base; gay, misto, shioyo or cheese and gays and they can also choose which nudels they want; thick udon, thin beech or classic thin egg noodles. we have both settled on the senbon Sakura rays with a squacy soup and rosm noodles – the rug was out of this world, full of tasty grilled hues, frying, salmon, queen roasts and a huge clam. it also comes with nori, a soy marinated egg, early baptism, sesame and wakame seeweed, bohnensprossen and sweet mais. so delicious! after a few bites my man proudly declared that this was his new favorite restaurant in leeds and I agree! the restaurant itself has a really casual and quite traditional Japanese vibe, naked wooden and chairs without kitschige gimmicks and plays really cool, jolly Japanese music. the service was super friendly and fast, we were regularly checked and the dishes were quickly deleted. for 2 nets, 2 starters and 2 drinks, the bill came to £35, which amazing! note that they have no alcohol license yet, but have a good choice of softdrinks and tees. I also look forward to eating and breakfast in the future."

"Pros: -The facility is great. The hotel is very new, has air conditioning, and comfortable seating in the common area. The bathrooms and beds were all very comfortable. -The breakfast was of high quality with a lot of variety included in the breakfast package. -The location is perfect. It is a 3-minute walk from the town center, yet far enough away to offer beautiful views and peaceful mornings. Cons: -The establishment seemed to be understaffed or provide poor service. It was unclear whether the service was lacking or if they were simply short-staffed. There was never anyone at the front desk to offer basic tourist information. When we checked in late at 10pm, we found ourselves locked out with no staff visible, even though their email stated that check-in was possible until 12am. We had to call their emergency cell to get someone to the front desk. Additionally, during our first breakfast, we were questioned multiple times about our stay and room information. It seemed that the restaurant used to be open to the public, which is no longer the case. However, I did not see them questioning other guests as much as they did to us. We were the only non-white guests that I saw, which may have been a factor. However, the next morning, they recognized us and we had no further issues with the service. -There is no elevator. It is questionable to label yourself as "luxury" when guests are placed on the third floor and have to carry their luggage up two flights of very narrow, winding stairs. They did assist my elderly aunt, but did not offer help to the rest of us. Overall, it was an average experience. I enjoyed the rooms and the location, but I believe I could find better service and experience elsewhere. There are many charming inns in the area, so I would recommend choosing another option."

"This is an honest and fair review Me and my partner came here on Saturday evening. This was our first time coming here, having lived in herne bay for 20+ years in quite surprised I haven't been before. But I must say, we was both left feeling disappointed. The food was good and so was the service , but the whole restaurant seriously lacks finesse. Where we was sat all you could see was the buildings from outside , which aren't the nicest looking buildings. So that instantly reminds you that you’re in the middle of town that is very run down. There was music on, but was so quiet and was like spa music (where’s the theme in this place? my gin and my partners beer both came in a tumbler glass, our meals was brought to us one by one just in hand (no tray? Or serving table you see where I’m going with this? Point is, it felt like we was sat in a cafe eating a dinner. I can’t understand what the theme of this place is? There is no theme. Such small adjustments to this place would change the game! • Proper glasses for the right drinks • Thai , Chinese style music • take the frosted glass on the window all the way up so you feel your somewhere else and not looking at those buildings • plants , Chinese Thai ornaments something to resemble the theme • candles on tables , meals brought with finesse etc etc etc. Other than this; everyone was really polite and friendly and food was good. But because of the reasons I have said I wouldn’t spend money on this place again. UNLESS it was to make adjustments. I really hope this review helps the business and takes this on board."
