"I ordered starters and two curries. Not only did I have to wait an hour and a half for delivery... but when my order came, they'd missed all of the starters off. The person taking the order had to ask the restaurant to be quiet to take the order and obviously missed half of it off. The owner when we called was ranting down the phone and not at all apologetic. Not only that, but she wanted to charge us extra for the things they'd missed off of the order, rather than apologising and getting it corrected. The order taker was stuck between what we were saying and her neurotic boss, who wasn't prepared to listen. My partner explained that she heard me make the call and order and I did order the starters, and they'd obviously not recorded it correctly. These guys are more concerned about money than service and reputation terrible business to treat customers in this way.. which is why I've felt compelled to write this, sadly."

"A few years ago, I came to this restaurant with some friends and was very impressed with the food. I had been meaning to return ever since, so I decided to take my boyfriend. We arrived around 7pm on a bank holiday and were surprised to find the restaurant empty. We ordered a mixed starter with a choice of sweet dips. The chicken satay was chewy and the fish cakes were undercooked. We then ordered soup, which was okay but had visible oil on top. For my main dish, I ordered the green chicken curry, which was decent but lacking in flavor. The chicken did seem fresher than before. Overall, I was disappointed with the food. It did not live up to my previous experience and was not as good as it used to be."

"If you are looking for proper, sustaining vegan food, made freshly and with real ingredients, look no further. We stumbled into The Eighth Day as tourists, merely because it was vegetarian and near the museum, and found an absolute gem. I had the curried celeriac and vegetable pie with a bean salad, and the others had the dhal and rice. All were delicious, wholesome, generously portioned and prepared with love and attention. The staff were lovely flexible and attentive and three substantial mains came in at a thoroughly reasonable £28. I had zero need for the pudding, but coming from Carlisle where the best you can get as a vegan is an extrusion of processed soya in denatured pastry and a confused scowl I felt it was an opportunity not to pass on. We shared a maple and pumpkin pie with vegan ice cream, which was fab and still felt it was doing us good. Thus fuelled, I powered through an afternoon of sightseeing and shopping without the slightest pang of hunger. Upstairs there is a gorgeous health food shop, thoughtfully stocked with everything a green consumer could require from organic vegetables to luxury toiletries. If only I lived in Manchester! I love this place..."

"We were just walking past and decided to pop in for a late dinner. The food was amazing and so filling. I had the pho which had a light but beautiful fragrant flavor. My partner had the xian stewed beef which again was very flavorful with a good level of spice. The service was perfect, we were quickly seated, given a menu, and offered water. The staff were easily able to handle the workload even though the restaurant was absolutely packed. Part off the reason we decided on green papaya was because of the atmosphere. From the outside walking past, it looked warm, friendly, and vibrant. It didn't disappoint and was a lovely end to our evening."

"Myself and my husband had a pork bao bun, chicken bao bun, trio of salad and the kimchi. The bao buns were gorgeous very very tasty, could have eaten more, love the crispy chilli they put on it. The salad was lovely and fresh and very tasty, the kimchi was tasty abit pokey heat wise but yummy 2 very happy customers it's a good thing we don't live closer I wouldn't be able to keep my husband out of here.

"Visiting Hull for the first time. Fancied a Thai meal. Booked but found the place virtually empty at 7.30 on a Friday night not a good sign. Ordered the set meal for 2. Waited over half an hour for food good sign I thought obviously freshly prepared. Whilst we waited the bin from the kitchen which was full was wheeled through the restaurant. Then once emptied wheeled back through. Prawn crackers eventually arrived looked like a whole meal version not great. Eventually the starters arrived. Pork skewers which looked like a piece of bacon on a skewer one of which was stone cold. A Thai fish cake which was like a piece of rubber with no flavour. Prawn toast without a hint of prawn. Thank goodness for the peanut sauce which made the tasteless rubbish edible. The mains arrived. The first dish was bland and watery. The next two had a little taste but not great. My partner said the food has made me grumpy that has never happened. Paid quickly and left feeling sick. Headed to Tesco for chocolate. Do not waste your money."

"I was with my Malay wife in Croydon to visit the UK govt visa/residency offices. Afterwards we strolled about to look for somewhere to have lunch and were really surprised to find this place in the Whitgift Centre. It 's laid out like a genuine Malay/Singapore food court/coffee-shop. A counter area and then tables and chairs in front. I had a fried chicken kuay teow and my wife fried prawn mee siam. She also had a freshly made hot lemongrass drink which was nice a refreshing. All very authentic indeed and good amounts of chicken, prawns, tofu and so on so filling. They weren 't serving from pre-cooked tureens at the counter but instead cooking to order. So the counter looks pretty bare. Also, not serving on plates within the premises but take away and also served up in the same containers to diners at the 6 or so tables in front on the quiet shopping centre walkway. My wife knows the cuisine inside-out and I lived out there for years too and I can say the cooking is very well done. We 'd ordered 'spicy ' dishes and it enough spice for us both for lunchtime. Another nice point, it was cooked to be quite low-salt. Salt can always be added so low-salt is a better starting point in these most health conscious days. They also do fresh made 'cook in ' sauces to take home. We bought three, 1) curry, for the classic Malay chicken curry with potato. 2) rendang (for beef or chicken) and 3) sambal (chicken mostly IME, but fish etc also, it 's versatile). We ordered those while having lunch and they were ready and packed within 10 or so minutes. ps. You might want to take some bag/container to carry the packs upright as they were in lidded plastic tubs, not screw-cap or similarly secure. Friendly service. Quite quiet while there at c2.30pm. The shopping centre was so much quieter than I recall from years ago but this retaurant deserves to fully re-open and thrive again as it 's the real deal and with each main about £7-7.50 good value as the portions were deceptively big in their tubs! I suprised myself my totally cleaning up with hardly a pause. Point#2 re: healthier style it was nice to see there was zero sign of any residual frying oil in the pot. I nearly bought the laksa noodle soup, another favourite. I saw a bowl being taken to the adjacent table and that looked spot on, from the big bowl used to the chunks of tofu and garnish on top. Almost worth visiting again from central London just to give that one a go."

Golden House

"If only Tripadvisor allowed for a 0 rating. Despite the restaurant receiving 4.7 stars on Uber Eats, my partner and I decided to give it a try due to its diverse Asian menu. We ordered Malay curry rice, sambal four-greens vegetables, tomato fried eggs, and lemon chicken. As a South Asian living in Europe for 6 years, I must say this restaurant should not be in business if they are serving such terrible food. The curry rice was nothing close to Malay, the sambal dish lacked any sambal flavor, the tomato fried eggs were watery, and the lemon chicken was dry and overwhelmed with lemon concentrate. None of the dishes were edible, and the chef(s) and the restaurant should be ashamed for serving such fake and tasteless food, disrespecting the culinary heritage of Chinese and Asians. There are much better Chinese and Asian food options in Cambridge, so don't waste your money on this subpar restaurant."

Joy Luck Resturant

Soup • Meat • Asian • Chinese

"OK, so the place isn 't fine dining, it 's not somewhere to linger all night, it 's a bit scruffy and the staff have seen it all, so if you 're a bit precious, or you 're trying to impress somebody, don 't go there. But if you want really good, tasty Chinese hotpot, then do go. We 've walked by the place a dozen times over the years and thought 'nah ', but this time we saw people eating hotpot and thought 'why not ', and we are glad we did. There 's loads of other stuff on the menu, but we opted for hotpot. Now there are several options, but we went for a slightly Thai influenced one with beef, with side orders of pak choi and mooli to cook in it (from a long list of options seafood, meat veg). We 're not big eaters so ordered a single serving size (rather than the per person one), and didn 't have any rice or noodles, which people with bigger appetites might want. They fired up the burner on the table and the pot arrived a thickish broth with loads of big chunks of beef, along with loads of tofu and big fresh chillis. We popped the veg in and started hot potting (if that 's a word). The broth was full of flavour spicy but not dangerously so and the slow cooked beef was beautifully tender. The bill, with service and one glass of half decent merlot for Mrs Ex Punk, as I was driving, was £36. You can 't knock it at that price. So, it 's likely to be our go to place in Chinatown."

"The restaurant offered delicious, fresh food with a perfect balance of flavors and textures. It was nutritious and enjoyable to eat, with lots of taste without being overwhelming. I ordered the bento box, which was great value, as did my wife. My brother in law had the ramen soup, which was also filling and flavorful. Many of the dishes were new to me, and the desserts were flavorful and textured without being too sweet. My wife, who had traveled in Japan last year, found the food to be authentic. The staff, including the waitress and a cheerful Japanese lady, were pleasant."

"the best Thai food by far, we had a lot of take-aways in tiling and great to eat again, the food is so fresh and tasty and the personal friendly and welcoming, the place was full a few times recently as we. tries to book what is great to see that places like these are back in full capacity. the disadvantage.....Hard to choose what to have, how everything is good, must force me to try new dishes, otherwise I just pull myself for my favorite, green chicken curry, huhn massaman, so that this time had a fish dish, it was nicely cooked to perfection and not seasoned, cannot remember the name of the teller. had space for bananas in kokosmilch (only)"

"We visited the restaurant (4 people) as we had heard good reviews we were very disappointed. Whilst the sushi is of good quality, the service was dreadful (the waiter was rude and didn't make eye contact once) and it is very over priced. Chicken broth with cheap noodles (they looked and tasted like Maggi noodles) costing £7.00 Th female toilets are revolting smelt awful and there was lots of mould everywhere. One tile is loose on the floor and when stepping on it water (smelt more like urine) came up and all over my shoe. The sink was filthy. This put us off the food immediately we asked for the hygiene rating but was ignored (it is no where to be seen) We spent £90 and came out hungry and feeling ripped off."

"We ate in here on a Saturday in January. This pub has been a star of the Sheffield beer scene since forever, and now it has Vegan food. The food is great, portions are generous and prices reasonable. All vegan options, including the beer, are clearly identified. I'd eat here again, and the beer is great. Came back today and ordered vegan fish and chips. Due to a slight miscommunication they brought actual fish out. However, the mistake was rectified with great good humour, chef went out to Tesco to get more stocks of tofu and we got a free round of drinks to compensate. The tofu fish n chips was outstanding, and the service here is just excellent. I will come here again. Third visit here today (a Sunday). Food just gets better, the Sunday dinner option was very tasty, service just excellent. Love it."

"We have ordered from Goomet twice in recent weeks, seeking an alternative to our usual Chinese having recently moved to the area. The first time we were pleasantly surprised, then the second time just confirmed that this is an excellent takeaway. The Hong Kong Sweet and Sour was beautiful, really soft chicken pieces in a tangy sauce. The Chicken and Sweetcorn Soup was excellent, as was the Crispy Beef in Chilli Sauce (albeit a touch sweet for my palate, my partner loved it). The Salt and Pepper Chips were a touch indistinct, which is the only reason I can't give 5 stars on this occasion. The Gyoza, ordered with scepticism as it's traditionally a Japanese item as opposed to Chinese, were phenomenal, super tasty and with a lovely sticky dip. Excellent. We will be along to try the restaurant dining in soon, we're looking forward to it! Normally, restaurants with a huge menu tend to fail to deliver consistent quality across all items, but with the multiple things we've had across a couple of visits, I can't say that here, top stuff."

Grand Village Imperial

"The food at this restaurant is very tasty and well presented. If you are going with a group of 3 or 4 people, you don't have to order individually as there is plenty for everyone. There are additional tables available upstairs and the decor is really well done. The staff are always willing to help and clear up after you. The prices are quite pricey, but could have been a little bit cheaper. Overall, it is an awesome place with a dining service rating of 5, and an atmosphere rating of 4. Recommended dishes include Crispy Duck Pancakes, Crispy Lamb, Duck in Plum Sauce, Ribs, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Duck Sauce, and Duck Soup. There is plenty of parking available with free parking options."

Oiishi Japanese Cuisine

➤ 8-10 Hunter Street, South Lanarkshire, United Kingdom, G74 4LZ

Sushi • Asian • Vegan • Japanese

"Really high quality and an excellent selection of food. The menu has great options for traditional and contemporary Japanese starters, mains and sides. If you love sushi Oiishi 's sushi chefs always deliver amazing sushi, and yet again there is a large selection from full fancy rolls to smaller portions. If you 've not tried sushi and are unsure of it, don 't be afraid to order something small as a side or a larger roll as a shared side for the table. People can often be put off by the idea of 'raw ' fish, however Oiishi use sushi grade fish that is the highest quality fish you can buy and is safe for consumption raw. Of course there are also options for cooked fish, tempura (battered) or vegetables sushi. I highly recommend the traditional ramen bowl, grilled Unagi Nigiri and the Black or Green Dragon Rolls."

"I ordered takeout from this restaurant today (5th Jan) and have been a loyal customer for a few years, both dining in and getting takeaway. However, I was very disappointed with my meal today. It cost £73 for three people, including a shared starter, and was delivered via Deliveroo. The food was lukewarm and the chicken was tough and difficult to eat, resulting in a lot of leftovers. The chicken dishes, one with noodles and one with rice, were very greasy with no added spice, lacking in flavor. The third dish, a special rice with only 1 prawn, 2 squid, and other ingredients, was also unappetizing and greasy. The meal had a strange taste that was different from what we have experienced in the past. We usually enjoy the food from this restaurant, and everyone was looking forward to this special meal, but unfortunately, we ended up throwing most of it away. It was a waste of money, and now we are resorting to making cheese on toast for dinner. Very disappointing."

"I had the pleasure of dining in for lunch, and overall, it was a delightful experience. The food was exceptional, earning a solid 5 out of 5 for its quality and taste. The service was also commendable, with a rating of 4; the staff was attentive and friendly without being overly intrusive. The atmosphere of the restaurant contributed to the enjoyable meal, receiving a rating of 4 as well – it was warm and inviting. In terms of pricing, the meal fell within the £10–20 range per person, which I found to be quite reasonable given the high quality of food and service. I would definitely recommend this place for a satisfying lunch!"
