"Had to wait a couple of minutes to be seated as staff were busy. Not sure why there’s a requirement for the staff need to seat you, when you have to go up to the till yourself to order food drinks, rather than it being table service. The table wasn’t clean but the server spotted this before we did and wiped it over. Quite a lot of choice on the menu which was good. When we ordered, it was irritating that they wouldn’t swap a gelato flavour in a sundae. At the end of placing the order, only then were we told there would be quite a long wait for the desserts (in the end, we waited even longer than the length of time they advised). Took over 20 minutes for staff to bring us just some tap water. They were busy but seemed to be prioritising takeaway/delivery orders rather than customers there in person. My Mum and brother both ordered sundaes, these arrived first with several minutes between. 10 minutes later, my waffle had still not arrived. By this point, my brother had finished his dessert obviously he couldn’t delay eating due to the ice cream melting! I asked one of the staff how long the waffle would be, she was clueless so we had to check with someone else. I commented that people on another table who didn’t go into Creams until half an hour after we did and ordered way after us had got their waffles before me! Staff could not explain this. The waffle was a high price point at £9, so for that cost I didn’t expect to be waiting 45 minutes and lose the opportunity to eat dessert at the same time as my family. Understandably, I complained. The manager was apologetic and explained the delay was due to them having to make more waffle mixture. I suggested they should have put the sundaes together once the waffle was nearly ready, so the desserts could have come out together common sense for a small party to be served their food altogether, surely?! They offered a free drink by way of an apology. The desserts tasted very nice and were generous portions. It was a real shame because the slow service and lengthy wait between the first third desserts being served impacted on our experience of enjoying pudding out as a family. Cutlery wasn’t the cleanest either."

"To my surprise, many restaurants are closed on Sunday evening in London. Every time I looked up a vegan restaurant on Happy Cow, it turned out it was closed. Since it was late and I was hungry, I had no other option than to select a vegetarian restaurant close by. 1947 Restaurant and Bar is both an Indian and Italian restaurant. The entire menu is vegetarian, however only around 20% is vegan. Many more meals can be made vegan, but so many of them had cheese listed as an ingredient that I didn 't want to run the risk. What if there 's an error in communication between the waitress and the kitchen? Or what if the chef accidentally adds cheese out of habit? I had lots of time to make up my mind, because even though the restaurant was very quiet it took a long time until the waitress came to take my order. I selected vegan biryani because I like biryani and because I 've tried it at so many restaurants that it 's easy to compare. It took a long time for the biryani to be prepared, but then it was served beautifully and smelled divine (as it should be). However, compared to other restaurants it 's a rather simple biryani. It has only one kind of rice (it is often served with both white and yellow rice) and only a few vegetables. There was no tofu, mushroom, potato, no nuts or any protein source. Also, the yoghurt was missing (which is used to extinguish the fire caused by the spices). The portion was generous and the taste was good. Although it was mentioned on the menu, 1947 Restaurant and Bar adds a 12.5% service tax. Why don 't restaurants just increase all prices on the menu instead of giving the customers a nasty surprise at the end?"

"This review is based on my experience on the day, and could be different for you, but I doubt it. I kept being told about a Burrito bar in Southampton and that I should try it. Well I attended today, with the friends who told me about this place, and have to say I had, up to this point never had a Burrito in my life. Seen many programs showing them but never had I ever tried one. Followed what my friend did, and I got my burrito the way I wanted it to be. You walk in, you’re asked if you want a small or large (unsure if medium is available burrito. Then your problems start, but in a nice way. So many main options it can be mind boggling until you get your head around it. The staff were fantastic after I chosen my main meat/rice of tomato rice and shredded beef. I then moved on to the extras, sauces, chose a mild sauce many salad options and it was then prepared for eating (folded then wrapped in silver foil then payment. And I was ready to eat at the tables in the front part of the shop. Warning that prices vary dependent on the size and the meat you have as your filling. Mine with shredded beef with the rice and toppings I chose totaled £9.95. No complaints from me as the food was hot, tasty, held together by the silver foil, filling and worth every penny in my opinion. Pricing is no different to any local take away I suppose but the bigger the meat (to many to list hear, but from pulled meat to chunks of steaks you have the more expensive it is but it is filling and good value. If you are not a meat eater you could ask for a vegetarian burrito, made of rice and the vast vegetable additions. Cannot see that being an issue. You can do take away, eat in or delivery. They do other dishes which I did not even get to look at but I would say all pallets are catered for. You could always call in advance or check their website, Mexigo Southampton. I think there are other Mexigo branches around the local area as far as Maidstone if you google Mexigo. Don’t shoot the messenger as this was the first time I had visited this shop/chain and I was unsure as you are reading my review, but I was satisfied with what I chose, and think if you plan your selections well either there or via the website you will not be disappointed."
