"I have dined here twice—once for a meal and once for a surprise party—and both experiences were delightful. The staff were excellent, the drink prices were fair, and the food was delicious, all set in a pleasant and upscale atmosphere. Plus, they offer gluten-free beer, which is a great option for those with celiac disease! Price per person: £30–40. Food: 5/5. Service: 5/5. Atmosphere: 5/5."

"Food is a bit over priced for what it is. I had a cheeseburger and fries. Nothing fancy about it so didn't warrant the £16 price tag. Dessert was lovely but obviously a microwave job. (Sticky toffee pudding) My friend wanted a caramel latte but was offered vanilla as replacement. When it arrived it tasted of cinnamon. We reminded the waitress that we'd ordered vanilla, she said yes. It's spiced vanilla But we hadn't been told that. We had to ASK her to replace it! Not great customer service. Lovely interior and well designed. Very large place with big garden out back- they had tables blocking the door way so not sure how you'd get out there?????"

"Service was very good, food was well presented and freshly cooked, however it wasn't as hot as I would have liked, specially the Yorkshire puddings, I heard people on the next table saying theirs were cold aswell. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 4 Service: 4"

"The Wagamama restaurant in Reading is in a good location close to the Oracle. The place itself was ok but the music was too loud and the atmosphere reminded me of school cafeterias. They have a vegan and gluten-free menu although only one dish was gluten-free and vegetarian/vegan. The quality of the food is good and very fresh. Unfortunately, our table wasn’t cleaned before we were placed so we had to sit next to a lonely shrimp, in addition we weren’t given cutlery for the soup-like curry nor was the staff properly trained to serve wine and drinks. In a nutshell: ok but nothing special or remarkable about this place."

"The front of house service at this restaurant was very friendly and efficient. Our starters arrived promptly after ordering, which was a good sign. Though our mains were a bit cold, the quality of the food was good, especially the steak. The desserts and cocktails we had were also very enjoyable. Overall, a positive dining experience despite the minor hiccup with the temperature of the mains."

"Restaurant was inviting, festive and warm. The online booking hadn 't worked so they didn 't know we were coming, but found us a table anyway. Saturday lunch, so it was quite busy, but I suspect a second drinks order was forgotten until we reminded them. First glass was (when finished) found to be covered in old fingerprint smears and lipstick marks. Food was generally good, the family enjoyed theirs. I had a wagyu burger which admittedly in a British pub is probably expecting a little much, but it was just a burger, and overcooked. It was tasty, but I wasn 't asked how I 'd like it cooked (which I often have elsewhere and seems to be the norm these days) and it was quite dry. Presumably they can 't say it 's Wagyu unless it actually is, but I think the term is used often casually to mean 'super extra special massaged beer-fed cow meat ' whereas in actual fact it 's just a breed of cattle. So it was just a burger. IT came with bacon which was nicely cooked and actually tasted of smoked bacon (rare these days), and sweet potato fries which were really delicious, crispy and HOT (which is how chips should arrive). Condiments are good quality too. The mains took longer than we would have liked to arrive. All in all, I 'd go back because it 's a nice place, the food is good but needs more attention, and the price is on the high side but still okay. Staff are courteous. more aloof than I would prefer, but probably just right for a lot of people who don 't favour staff interaction much."

"hardly a vegetarian selection and what I had was lukewarm and tasteless. none of the workers wore masks that particularly surprised me how most guests I saw do not mask when they went through the restaurant to the toilets etc. the young woman who served us was very pleasant and friendly, but I think we had luck from what I could observe. sad I will not recommend the white hard to anyone who is a shame, as in the deceased we have used it a lot,"

"The pub wasn’t particularly busy but it took a good 20 minutes before I got up went to the bar are ordered my own. Food took about 50 mins from arriving which again I felt a little slow. Started came without olives to which the waiter said you will have to ask for a discount when you pay, we mentioned this at the end and a different waitress said we haven’t had them all day! So why not tell us that when we ordered! Wife’s roasted celeriac was the size of a starter which for £16 was disappointing. Missed an order of chips for the children which arrived after we complained and had finished eating. Staff generally polite but did seem very distracted by what I assume was a group party. Finally the table we were given in the area we sat in was freezing cold, making the whole thing look experience pretty miserable. Won’t be hurrying back!"

"Really enjoyed the dirty burger and fries with the dripping sauce! Staff are nice and service was good. Didn't have a great experience last time with an I.D. situation for my daughter and her partner who's birthday it was and 25, had no I'd on her other than a picture of their passports and driving licence on their phone. Which was refused!, so we left, very unhappily. But we have been back and enjoyed it again. Just a shame that night was ruined. However, we will go back. Just make sure if you are lucky enough to not look 30! Have I.D. the service last night was much better. The food is generally very nice. Just don't have the Rumbaba dessert and is is just sponge cake an certainly not what you expect when you have the real thing in Italian restaurants."

"This bar and restaurant is truly fantastic. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming. We decided to try the Sunday roast, and as a person from Yorkshire, I have high standards. The dish surpassed our expectations, and we will definitely be returning."

"Having made a booking via OpenTable and receiving a confirmation email, 24 hours later had a phone call from Browns to say they could offer me a table at 5pm or 9pm but not at 7pm which was the time of my booking. No apologies just that the way it is. OpenTable just blamed Browns and said I could always phone the restaurant to confirm a booking, not seeing the ridiculousness of that suggestion as it renders their platform to irrelevance. So I am giving an all round one star, but to be clear we did not eat there."

"the presentation of eating is good. However, all three sirloin steaks we ordered were boiled over. the service was minimal with only one staff that took service and order. when pouring a bottle of red wine on our weinglas it was as fast as it filled with water and without showing us the bottle and trying it out. inside damentoilette just came out of the kubikal found a male personal cleaning and it scared me. this type of service at hilton was not expected."
"Sadly we had a very poor experience other than very helpful waitresses who were trying their best! As we arrive we were told that Sunday roasts were all gone and their was no chicken. Once we’d chosen we were told no pies or fish cakes. The only choice for gluten free was steak. We were told there had been a mistake with the ordering hence low stocks. Such a shame when we had been looking forward to a nice meal."

"Very rushed ordered drink to have before meal, meal came before drink !! Average steak cold ! Not offered mustard or dressing. Very expensive for what we received! Use Greenhouse which is same menu but so much better."

"The restaurant is beautifully decorated for Christmas, featuring fairy lights that create a warm and cozy atmosphere. There's an inviting open fire and comfortable sofas where guests can relax with a drink before their meal. The linguine was delicious, though slightly on the sweet side. My friend enjoyed the halloumi cheese bowl, and we both found the meal to be great value for money. The service was friendly and efficient. We are definitely considering returning!"
