"We used to frequent this pub often in the past, but heard that it had changed ownership, so we decided to meet our friends here. We were excited to catch up with friends we hadn't seen in a while. However, when we arrived, my husband inquired about their ale selection and was informed they only had Harveys with no other options. The server who brought our drinks had dirty fingernails, which was off-putting. When it came time to order food, one of our friends asked about a Christmas menu and was told it needed to be pre-ordered, as stated on their website. Despite our frequent visits in the past, we had not checked the website. The food was tasty, but the service was lacking. We had to request drinks and were not asked about our meals once they arrived. At 9:40, a lady approached us with the bill and informed us they were closing soon. When we asked for another drink, we were denied. My husband requested to remove the service charge, which caused some tension with the lady taking payment. She questioned why he wouldn't pay it, stating that everyone charges it, which we found rude. Overall, the poor service has discouraged us from returning or recommending the pub to others, despite the delicious food. It's disappointing, as we had hoped the new management would focus on attracting and retaining customers."

"The host/manager let the evening down, he had an egotistical attitude, when he was asked about the spice/hotness of the food and which regent of India it came from, he was very dismissive and spoke down, rather than elaborate on his food he served. The serving of the starters and main meal had no system, the starters were plated, however the main meal was placed in serving bowls and placed on our plates which meant mixing the side orders like rice and vegetables difficult to mix in the bowls. We had to ask for serving spons and reorganized our eating arrangement. During and after the main meal, there was no further service, for additional drinks and desert or coffee offered, by 22:15, it was uncomfortable sitting in the restaurant as the management was more interested in closing up. The premises entrance was uninviting with a cycle parked in the hallway abd carpets needed a good clean through the entire premises. Considering there was a lot of room in the restaurant, the tables for four people were very small and cramped. Shame to state the above, because the food was tasty and reasonably priced, and the two young waitress were very pleasant."

"Had a Sunday roast here yesterday, everything was spot on, from the veg to the gravy to the chicken, it was very moist and delicious, service was quick great too, the pouring of the gravy on the sizzler was aesthetically pleasing. My friend had the roast beef she said it was very tender and moist. The huge Yorkshire puddings were very crispy and done just right! All in all a great experience and I will definitely come back again, keep up the good work!"

"We first visited Raja's a few years ago when we wanted a non halal Indian restaurant. We weren't disappointed and until Covid reached our shores, we were frequent visitors. Gorgeous food, cosy and friendly atmosphere and attentive staff. Unfortunately, when we enquired about it still being non halal last night, we were disappointed to hear it wasn't the case now. So disappointed as it was the only one in Leeds."

"Food was great, drinks were great. Service was bad. There were three tables and about 4 members of staff. We had to wait a while before our order was taken and we ordered drinks. Food arrived before our drinks did. We had to ask three times for water. It took asking the staff member who was playing games on his phone behind the bar, before we could get any water to the table. When we got the bill I asked given how slow the service had been if we could have the service charge removed. Waitress informed me that's not possible, it cant be removed it's added to everyone's bill. It is a real shame because the food is good. I just can't deal with the slow uninterested service again."

"The dining experience was fantastic and simple. I have never had such a delicious meal before. The mushrooms were the standout dish, even though I typically don't like them. Whatever the chef did, it was outstanding. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The prices were great for the quality of the food. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a wonderful meal to enjoy with friends, family, or a partner."

"We experienced the most incredible Caribbean cuisine at this restaurant. We savored dishes such as salt fish croquettes, Trinidadian doubles, oxtail stew, goat curry, and jerk chicken. The bold and spicy flavors were absolutely fantastic. The oxtail stew was a standout, with a rich gravy filled with tender meat and butter beans that paired perfectly with the rice and peas. The jerk chicken was outstanding, boasting a smoky flavor while remaining juicy. Each main dish was served with plantains and a side salad. Despite the amazing food, we were surprised to find the restaurant was not very busy. We were so impressed by the food that we devoured it too quickly to even take photos. We highly recommend this restaurant!"

"We were looking to try a new restaurant for dinner tonight, and after passing by the New Talbot several times, we finally decided to give it a go. We were not disappointed! The service from the staff was excellent, and the food was fantastic. Our meals arrived quickly and were served hot and fresh! As curry lovers who have dined at some well-known places, I can confidently say that the New Talbot ranks among the best. We highly recommend it, and we can’t wait to return to try the mixed grill. Thanks, Jo and Neil! x"

"This was a last minute booking so didn't have time to research other reviews, but I wish I did. The food was awful! Had to send back the cod fish balls due to one being cremated. We were met with disdain when explaining that we could not eat it. The goat was tough and undercooked with no gravy it was basically soup. The service was awful apart from the bartender. We walked out feeling robbed as the prices are astronomical compared to the portion sizes and quality. Will never return"

"I have been searching for a venue to celebrate my husband's 60th birthday next year. He is of Jamaican descent, and we found June Plum and decided to take him there for a meal this year. Upon our arrival at 5:15pm, my daughter gave a cake to a staff member to hide in the kitchen as a surprise for my husband. We requested to place our food order at 5:25pm, but even after our drinks order had been taken and served, our food order was not taken. After a second request, we finally placed our food order. By 6:15pm, we still had not received our food and when we inquired about the delay, we were given a story about the table before us still not being served. At this time, there were only them and us in the restaurant. We were told maybe another 15 minutes for our food, but by 6:30pm, we were still waiting. The front of house manager apologized and could not give us a definite time for our food, mentioning that the table before us would take another 10-15 minutes. After two hours of waiting, we were still not able to eat. The staff mentioned attending a cricket match the day before, but we were unsure how that was relevant to our wait. When we finally asked for the bill and received it along with the surprise birthday cake for my husband, which was supposed to be a surprise, we were disappointed. Although the front of house manager apologized and offered us the drinks on the house, we have decided not to return to June Plum and will not be booking it for my husband's 60th birthday meal. While we appreciate supporting small businesses, we cannot tolerate such long waits for service."

"I had a wonderful birthday meal at this restaurant tonight. After returning to the area, I took a chance on booking a table here because it was a favorite spot from my childhood and I even worked here for a few years as a young adult. I was delighted to find that the bar was just as welcoming and friendly as I remembered, and even some of my old neighbors from my childhood greeted me by name, which made me very happy! The food was exceptional... My friend and I started with momos, served by the friendly waitress, Sonia. The mixed grill and lamb vindaloo were absolutely delicious! We had to take some home because we couldn't finish it all. Thank you for a lovely meal- I will definitely be back soon."

"The restaurants have good vegan options listed, however after being stung by them incorrectly labelling vegan options I wouldn 't go back. To be fair to them they did admit the mistake, but this was after I 'd already eaten the incorrectly labelled item, and an offer of a voucher doesn 't really cut it when they eradicate your trust in such a way. I 've pasted their reply below: We want to send our deepest apologies, there has been a serious issue with our menus that have been printed. The Dirty Curry Fries do not contain beef stock, however they do contain cheese. This is not what we aim for at Turtle Bay, we have always valued our vegan customers and are working hard to rectify this so that this doesn’t happen again as this mistake is unacceptable. All branches have been contacted, all staff have been informed and re-trained and all menus have had the vegan symbol crossed out. The new menus should be arriving very soon. We will be contacting the Management Team at Winchester to make sure that this doesn’t happen again."

"yesterday attended this old timepiece, the decor in the run of the years has not changed, but after I heard all the hype about the food, I was extremely disappointed. we ordered a small mix grill that was burned out when we complained to the owner (quality behind the...bar) was his answer: "they should have told us that they didn't want to do it well". I though ok, I wanted it cooked not burned, but as I didn't let it ruin the experience, so I thought I would then try the curries, so I went to the owner sohn to order on the counter) at which point I mentioned the burned grill again. this time was the answer: "oh, but they have to pay for the curry" I think the guy who thought I was after a freebie and did not recognize the burnt grill. I wanted to pay full for the curry and wanted to eat only half decent food that was not burned! as always the curry came and it was nice much better than this grill and it wasn't burned hey presto we get somewhere! so comes the cook to collect the dishes at the end. he sees the burned wings and claims, "they said it was all burned." Of course not, but these young people just didn't get it all night. frightening customer service, ambiente, burned eating, ok prices, but I wouldn't go with this shower- they go to the soho tavern instead of so much easier and better!"

"A friend and I met up at Las Iguanas to catch up over some food. The person who greeted us asked if we wanted any of the vegan/vegetarian/gluten free menus, without us having to say anything, so we felt welcome and comfortable straight away. They found us a nice table so we settled down to pore over the options. The menus were a bit confusing (The veg/vegan menu has 'V ' for vegan, while the others have the same symbol for vegetarian, with no vegan info). Some of the 'ask for vegan ' combination options were then followed by a list where nothing was marked vegan, but a quick check with the staff revealed they could provide most of the marked options for us with appropriate changes to make them vegan. The staff member was very helpful about the food options, and had no problems with checking on the veganness of anything we weren 't sure about. Eventually we settled on the taco sharing tray, which came with tacos, corn chips, guacamole, coconut butternut squash, and chickpea chilli. I got some extra guacamole too. It was the perfect amount for two and very, very yummy! Despite being almost bursting, we couldn 't resist sharing the Tembleque (coconut pudding) which turned out to be a good thing as it was amazing! We 'll definitely be back!"

"12 of us went for a work Christmas dinner. Booked by someone else. I was the first person to arrive and was invited to either wait at the table or the bar I decided to get a drink drink first and before I’d finished ordering my drink everyone else started to arrive were told that we had the table for 2 hours. We all went to the table and had sent our food order 2 days before as requested, which they had lost so we then had to order individually from the menu and wait longer for the order to be cooked. The food on the whole was delicious, if I were to be picky the prawns were overcooked but they were still tasty, and everyone else enjoyed theirs. The waitress barely smiled the whole 2 hours we had the table and proceeded to come over with a card reader to ask for payment whilst we were all still eating stating we had 10 minutes! If they hadn’t of lost our order and the service was a little quicker we would’ve finished our food before the allotted time. If this had been the end of the visit the rating would have been lower, but 2 members of bar staff bumped it up. They couldn’t have been better, happy, helpful and highly efficient. We had moved to the bar area and they kept me topped up with iced water all night (designated driver) often coming over and just topping me up. I appreciate Christmas in the hospitality trade is manic at Xmas but rude staff are not acceptable when we spent a lot of money which we all worked hard to earn. It’s also not made clear that there is such a short time limit on the table."

"Wanted to try this restaurant and so glad we did. We were staying nearby and the smells coming from the place as we walked towards it were great. Had jerk chicken whilst wife had the curry goat. Both were superbly cooked and we thought the...portions were generous with both coming with rice n peas and plantain. Meal was washed down with Stag lager, a glass of rum and a cocktail. Service was excellent and all staff very friendly. Shame that the restaurant was quiet as it deserves to be packed but not surprising given the time of year. As someone else has mentioned you cannot add a tip on your card when you pay your bill so make sure you have some cash in your pockets as food and staff are certainly worth it."

"Booked bottomless brunch 3-5pm, ordered cocktails at 3pm they didn't come until 325, it did get quicker after that. The drinks weren't great, there was 5 of us and none of us really liked the cocktails, not sure if it's because they are all rum based with it been a Cuban bar. We were only given 3 menus but all the cocktails are listed on the menu so we needed one each, i asked for more menus they never arrived. I ordered the chicken burger, there was hardly any chicken in it and the breadcrumb bit was hard. Asked for mayo and ketchup, that never came. If you're busy what not just put sauces on the table. When the bill came we'd been charged an £18 service charge, sorry surely we should decide how much tip to leave ?? We had paid a £30 deposit which they didn't take off the bill and we only remembered the next day, this surprised me as everyone that books has to pay a deposit so why was this forgotten about. The staff were nice though, we had Zarah and she was very patient and lovely and we asked the young lad for ice and that came straight away. I wouldn't recommend it nor would i return, sorry."
