"I wanted to come here for a while and so glad I finally managed to do it, because it was not disappointed. from the service, to wine, to the cheeseboard and the delicious net I can not recommend the 10 cases enough. we ordered the burrata and the cheeseboard to start, which were very fresh and varied in textures/bottles. for dinner, my friend and I shared the bark cheek gnocchi and the sole, the divine and both of the evening. the gnocchi was so tender and the sauce was perfect. my other friend had the vegetarian wellington she loved. Finally, the wine list is far and fascinating. absolutely loved everything we tried."

"I had an excellent experience at this restaurant! The food was delicious, the wine was outstanding, and the coffee was quite nice. The surroundings were beautiful, and the service was fantastic. I’m definitely planning to return. They also offered plenty of gluten-free options and were able to accommodate two different dietary requirements within our group."

"we sat outside in the restaurant because of kovid, unfortunately my handy was stolen by a person who came on our table. without any employee outside, or safety gift this is an insecure environment and I would warn others to eat outside. soon after a watchman of another facility (via the road) came over and warned me of the opposite and a laptop on the table (I had withdrawn to use my laptop to get in contact with the family after my handy) I tried to talk to the staff and the manager who would be totally inadequate, insensitive and repulsive of the incident with many beautiful restaurants that I would recommend to the"

Pilchards At Port Gaverne

➤ Port Gaverne, PL29 3SQ, PORT ISAAC, United Kingdom

Kebab • Pizza • Mexican • Fast Food

"We have been bringing the kids here for years a special meal out in a fantastic spot. But sadly, this year may be our last. As recently as 2 years ago you could get 'tapas ' style small plates from £6 £9 each, this year we were a little shocked to find the cheapest plate (a modest serving of cured mackerel) priced at £13, with most small plates at the £17 mark. In the past we have also enjoyed the large plates, most of which were priced from £16 £18. Currently, they are priced at £70, £75 and £130 perhaps the portions are larger than previous years, we did not order any. The food is of course delicious, but on the whole, the small plates did not feel quite as varied nor satisfying compared to previous menus. The BBQ puffed bread was dry, the sticky ginger crab was disappointing compared to other fresher crab dishes, the Octopus not as memorable as previous years. It would have been nice to have been offered the option of some bread or rice to go with all the Panang Curry sauce leftover. The pork belly (the only meat option on the menu other than the £130 surf and turf) was possibly the dish that disappointed the most. We tried all of the small plates and enjoyed the Prawn Panang, Red Mullet Tartare and the Cauliflower Kung Pao. £270 for a family of 6 with a few soft drinks and no desserts. With Nathan Outlaw 's up the road perhaps they feel the need to set the menu and prices in order to compete. But may well price out some families from enjoying this special spot."

Harvester

Food • British • European • Cocktail

"I met up with two friends at the restaurant and had a wonderful time catching up over food and drinks. Everything surpassed our expectations. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the excellent service provided by the staff. The restaurant even offers a free salad bar if you order a main course, although the portions are already quite generous. The attentive staff made sure that everything was to our liking without being overly intrusive. Overall, our experience was outstanding and we will definitely be returning in the future."

The Northall

Pasta • Hotels • Drinks • British

"We dine here about twice a month. There is a monthly change in the set menu so decided to try it with guest from the US. The starters of mackerel with blow touched skin was very good- one of the two mackerel was a little fishy but it was just cooked under the skin. The corn voloute was good too. The beef rump was chewy and not very nice. We suspect the wrong cut has been used for the dish and was close to being unedible. The fish main was average. Decided to skip deserts. Service was good. Found the Waitering staff young and nervous. Had the amarone La Guila- was excellent. 50% wines between £100-£499 on a Wednesday. Will be back but was on of the more lacklustre meals we have had in Northall."

The Life Goddess

➤ 29 Store street London, WC1E 7BS, WC1E 7DU, United Kingdom

Cafés • Seafood • European • Fast Food

"Food was decent as usual) but the service left a lot to be desired. The wrong food was brought out on one occasion and then added to the bill even though no one had ordered it). One item was unavailable which meant two of our party had to reorder. Another item a very simple one) the trilogy was brought out after everyone else had been served. We then had to send the bill back three times as it was incorrect. Our waiters/waitresses were all very apologetic but it was overall a poor dining experience that spoilt a welcome lunch for a new member of our team. We have visited The Life Goddess a number of times for team lunches and never a had problem previously. Sadly, I don 't think we 'll be coming back in a hurry which is a real shame :"

Hengata

"Nice decor and feel to the place. Nice friendly staff and accommodating when we wanted to move our coats from next to the grill. Sri Lankan chef had residency for a couple of weeks and had lovely influence in the dishes. Lentil and carrot fritters were amazing, but the octopus was a let down, as was the bread. Sea Bass main was great, with a lovely chickpea base. The jackfruit croquette was amazing. The cardamon custard tart was more scrambled eggs unfortunately. Nice wine recommendations. I thought the whole experience and concept was great and will definitely go again."

SAGARDI BASQUE COUNTRY CHEFS

Steak • Basque • Spanish • Barbecue

"I took my mother to the Two Sisters restaurant for her birthday last Sunday. We were immediately greeted and informed about the brunch options (i.e. buffet versus brunch specials and other adjustments, such as turkey bacon instead of pork). I think this is a great place for a relaxed brunch and definitely for a mother-daughter date. We loved the food and the service. We drove to a Groupon and will definitely drive again without the Groupon. Worth it."

Mosaic Braintree Turkish

➤ 13-15 Bank Street, Braintree I-CM7 1UG, United Kingdom

Cafés • Kebab • Mexican • Fast Food

"The fact we emailed ahead to say one of had a food allergy and the one line response... our waitress will help was not a good sign! When we asked about the menu the waitress did not go through it and just rattled off a few items that were Gluten Free Its a first that Hallumi has wheat in it. Maybe the pesto has it? But just change it to Hallumi and salad Then the chicken Shish which I ordered was not gluten Free... only because the chicken was on a small tortilla... Take it off the plate and you are left with chicken rice and salad... Gluten Free! They would open up more diners if their menu showed those options. Was felt a bit rushed and we have been to many Turkish style restaurants who all cater nicely."

The Gunmakers

Pub • Fish • Beer • Drinks

"Have literally just visited and loved it so much I've immediately come here to write a reciew. Hard work deserves recogniton. I've had a couple of awful visits to places really so what a pleasant surprise to arrive and be greeted by some of the most attentive staff I've experienced in a long time! Couldn't do enough to accommodate and make us feel welcome. Checked in regularly, so that we always had what we needed. Lovely venue, cool covered garden out back, perfect for a couple of drinks (highly recommend the spiced margaritas and some tacos (Taco Tuesdays is a good time to go! Can't wait to return!"

Mexican • Seafood • European • Fast Food

"Everything from food to wine to staff to the surroundings were brilliant, it looked like restaurants we've visited in Greece. The staff were funny and entertaining in an understated way and the food was outstanding! The flavours were amazing in all the dishes. I visited with my family and we all agreed that the meal was fabulous. I particularly liked that it was tapas because we could try each others dishes. I would thoroughly recommend Halloumi"

Lucky Cat By Gordon Ramsay

➤ W1K 6LD London, United Kingdom

Wine • Beer • Asian • Drinks

"The dining experience was enjoyable but not exceptional. The service was satisfactory, though not outstanding. It seems there may be a disconnect between the expectations set by their branding (aiming for a Gordon Ramsay-level quality) and the reality of their offerings, which seem more aligned with wanting to be superior to chains like P.F. Chang's. I would be willing to return, but likely with a smaller group, as I don't feel they manage larger parties very well."

Satis House

➤ Satis HouseMain Road, Yoxford, United Kingdom

Wine • British • Bar/lounge • Gluten Free

"What a disappointment! Have Satis House for Christmas meal for my colleagues for 5 years, but definitely not used again. The starters were fine, but the main meal was a catastrophe, burned Pasnips and everything was cold, plate was not heated. Couple next to us sent food back there because it was cold. Usually the restaurant is full on a Sunday, especially on the run until Christmas, but there were only two tables for lunch. We didn't worry about puddings, but you really need to sort out."

Br4

➤ 24A Kingsway, West Wickham, United Kingdom

Pizza • Cafés • Seafood • Italian

"It took over an hour for our starters to arrive, and they forgot my husband's completely. The same happened with our main courses—another meal for our daughter was missed. There were zero apologies; at one point, I got a frustrating shrug when I asked about our food. The food itself was terrible. There was no bread or pizza available at all. My mother-in-law ordered seafood linguine but only found three empty clams in it, with nothing else. Despite the two forgotten meals, we weren’t offered any discounts on our bill or even an apology. I was so embarrassed to be there on what should have been a special occasion. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Avoid it at all costs."

Pure Cyprus

➤ 14 Goodwin Street London, N4 3HQ, United Kingdom

Meat • Kebab • Cafés • Greek

"This is not a glamorous restaurant it is a small, family run affair, a bit too brightly lit and in need of a few decorative flourishes, but the reviews are so good because despite the less than perfect surrounding the food is genuinely outstanding....I have eaten a lot of Greek food in Athens and the Islands, have many Greek friends and have visited the country over times. This food is exactly like what I have eaten there and in my friends homes. Tasty, rich without being overbearing, comforting, not greasy and totally fresh: and perfectly cooked. It's also reasonably priced. In my opinion it is much better than many way more expensive and celebrated Greek restaurants that serve greasy and tasteless Greek specialities I took my partner and our two kids and they all loved it. We had perfect deep fried calamari that is possibly the best I've ever had thick rings, fresh and tasty, just the right amount of light batter not those stringy thin frozen things sold in most places; spanakopita (spinach and feta fried pies) that were the perfect consistency and ratio of cheese to spinach; taramasalata that was not too creamy (but perhaps could have had a bit more lemon) and then the mains! A delicious chicken souvlaki and whole seabass, both grilled perfectly plainly fresh as can be and delicately seasoned; and a vegetarian Moussaka that was so authentic it took me right back to Greece, again, avoiding the over-greasy bland offerings of so many Greek places light, fluffy and gorgeous. All in all the meal was excellent I took what we didn't eat home and we had a second dinner tonight and it was just as good second time. I highly recommend this restaurant and have only not given it stars because, quite easily, they could make some significant improvements to the interior (dim the lighting for one) and possibly improve the wine list a little. But for Greek food I now know where I am going, everytime. I should point out that this is the first time I've been moved to write a review.."

"This is a hidden gem. Foodies are usually right in avoiding hotel restaurants, but don’t miss this one. Quiet, intimate, with outstanding food and service. Manager Pedro Santos is top notch. He loves his job. You will be treated like family and every detail is covered. Service by Ana was impeccable. We shared an order of sea bream ceviche. Outstanding! Then we each had the signature salad. All the vegetables cooked to perfection. Baby beats, onions, sweet potatoes with perfect balance of crunch and tender. So good. Entree was the Azore Tuna. Tender, moist, delicious. Tremendous meal. You will not be disappointed."

L'Anima Café

➤ 10 Appold Street, London, EC2A2AP, EC2A 2DF, United Kingdom

Cafés • Pizza • Coffee • Italian

"I can find working in the city a bit souless at times, especially when it comes to restaurants. There are a couple of great ones (for example City Social, Duck and Waffle and Goodmans) but they are definitely on the treat yo’self list, unless work is paying! I personally think there is a lack of interesting places to venture to for lunch. That’s why I’m happy I have L’Anima Cafe just within reach of my office. Being based at Bank it’s a good 15 minute walk, but oh so worth it. L’Anima Cafe is the sister to the award winning L’Anima just around the corner. This is a more informal setting with all day dining and great for after-work drinks. There’s also a deli for food-to-go. I’ve eaten here only twice but I hope I make many more visits. On my first visit I had a terrific lamb ragu: a rich, deep and salty ragu over parpadelle. I have thought about it many times since! This time we shared a couple of starters: an artichoke, asparagus and anchovy salad with pecorino shavings and a simple tomato, basil and garlic bruschetta. The salad was light and fresh with the moorish saltiness from the anchovy, a really wonderful dish. The tomatoes were seasoned perfectly on the bruschetta, however a couple of pieces came out a bit burnt as you can see, so we ended up eating the tomatoes but leaving the bread on those pieces. There was a veal ragu on the menu this time which I did contemplate ordering but thought I should change it up a little. There were some great fish dishes but in the end I ordered the spaghetti alle vongole: clams with garlic, chilli, parsley and white wine. This is one of my favourite pasta dishes and it did not disappoint! The al dente spaghetti with the soft salty clams and a slight kick from the chilli was wonderful. The parsley in there keeping it nice and fresh. Oh, I wish I was eating a plate of it now! Another pasta dish was also ordered, the fettuccine primavera. This entailed saffron, broad beans, peas asparagus and courgette flower. I had a taste of this too and it tasted garden-fresh, if that makes sense, really clean and light. A lovely dish. My other colleague wanted to order something different to us; the daily special of sole was decided upon. It was humungous! It came served with slices of crisp potatoes and cherry tomatoes. Oh my god, the flavour in the fish was incredible and so juicy too. We struggled to finish it all. All in all a great meal. Just two small points, the staff can be a little slow and also, last time we ordered the broccoli pizza and it was pretty bland. So I would avoid their pizzas. But everything I’ve ever ordered has been very good and rather beautiful too. It is very much full of suits mid-week but I imagine there is a different vibe in the evening and at weekends as it pretty much on the boarder between the city and Shoreditch (it’s right by the Queen of Hoxton). One day soon I hope to try L’Anima next door. But in the mean time this is the place to go for great Italian food!"
