"We were greeted by an unfriendly waiter who didn't smile or offer any warm welcome. After sitting down, it took about 15 minutes for someone to take our drink orders, and then another 10 minutes after that for our food to arrive. The overall experience was quite disappointing, and I won't be returning. I would advise others to avoid this place as well."

"Bluewater was very busy in general and the restaurant did not like the fact we had booked via open table. Although our table for was accepted we did not get seated until The starter was quick but we did not get out mains until No free bread or olives were offered despite us continually asking how much longer they were going to be. The price was the very expensive for a few lamb kofte burgers although we did have to keep ordering drinks to get us through until our food finally came out. Food was good although some of our groups food was cold but we daren't send it back as everyone was famished."

"First visit, while visiting the area, specifically to see a football match. Had pre-booked a table and was allocated a booth with our own screen, giving an uninterrupted view of the game. We didn't eat so can't comment on the food although the menu looked tempting. The beer was good though. Friendly staff and good atmosphere made for an enjoyable visit. Pity our team lost the football game."

"It was okay. Nothing special. The duck gyoza tasted like the frozen Itsu ones, weren’t great. Mac and cheese was warm not hot. Poutine tots (which came well after everything else, 10 minutes I want to say) were not poutine at all, 2 bits of melted cheese and a teaspoon of tomatoey sauce. The one thing that was nice were the corn ribs, they were yummy. Houmous was good too but you really can’t go wrong with Houmous. Service was okay, they were pleasant and polite, full of smiles, they just seemed a bit rushed off their feet which takes away from feeling like you’re being waited on. It’s a shame, but I think part of it was going at peak time on a Saturday."

"Today I decided to enjoy Christmas lights on kings Road but also have a dinner at pavilion Road . I booked a table for 6 pm at Wulf Lamb vegetarian restaurant. I became vegetarian for concerns about excessive use of environmental resources and for my health . Unfortunately, the restaurant wasn’t as impressive as I have seen in their website . They have only one toilet which wasn’t in a good condition and very dirty. Staff were nice and kind but very inexperiences . The table was very wobbly and The young manager tried to make the table more stable but he failed . We asked to have our starter and main course at the same time . Bruschetta were with mushroom and truffle oil not truffle as it says in menu! and Gyoza "

"Text: Disappointed with this restaurant which I’ve used over 8 times in 18 months. I drove from Crawley and booked ahead of time for my 66th birthday lunch a table for 4 at 1.30pm with my wife and two teenage kids aged 16&18. The price is reasonable when the quality is good the bill came to £185.00 including £20 service charge automatically added to the bill. Overview: The service was okay as usual quick but not friendly we were served by 5 different people. However what was horrible and shocking was that the food quality has dropped significantly since my last visit in September 2023. The scallops were very good as usual but the haddock and chips was very disappointing indeed…(more later) Oysters were pathetic the flesh was tiny and not tasty at all. Calamari was soft and the batter was soggy and ‘flat’. The fish and chips … haddock was dry and flakey and chewy clearly frozen fish. The batter was completely different to my last meal at Regency this time it was soggy and flat no crisp whatsoever. The chips were cold and miserable. The apple pie was disgusting really disgusting tasteless and bland and the pie crust was soft and soggy the runny cream was a bit sour and suspect my wife asked me to taste it and I poured some into my double espresso and it curdled. The tiramisu and profiteroles were ok. I just recently voted this restaurant for best in Brighton but I think that was a mistake. It’s a shame the food quality was so poor especially for simple things that should be excellent and are not technically acceptable! Poor show."

"I find it amusing that they sent an email asking for a review of a restaurant that is closed. They couldn’t even process our reservation, nor did they notify us beforehand. In fact, they even sent a reminder the day before our planned visit. I wouldn’t be so bothered if it weren’t for the fact that I specifically booked this restaurant through OpenTable on the Pasha website to celebrate a birthday. Thankfully, we were able to find another restaurant to eat at, but this experience has left me feeling hesitant about using OpenTable again. I will likely avoid this service in the future whenever I can."

"We had been enjoying delicious meals at Portofino New Brighton for several months, but unfortunately, our recent experience has left us hesitant to return. While the food quality is typically excellent and the staff are usually attentive and helpful, we encountered some issues with a young Italian waiter who struggled with English. This language barrier led to confusion with our orders, as he often had to consult with his manager. On our most recent visit, it was the manager who took our orders, but there were discrepancies with the dishes we received. My partner's Sea Bass came with a sauce not listed on the menu, and she suspected it may not have been Sea Bass at all. The manager insisted it was, but mentioned that they sometimes change sauces without prior notice, which seemed unusual to us. Additionally, I received Ravioli instead of the Canneloni dish I had ordered, but opted not to complain after the confusion with my partner's meal. Unfortunately, the manager failed to follow up on our concerns and we left feeling disappointed. Due to this strange behavior, we have decided not to return to the restaurant and caution others to ensure their orders are accurate before accepting them. It is disappointing that Portofino New Brighton does not address customer feedback, as it suggests a lack of concern for their patrons. It is important for them to prioritize customer satisfaction and communication to avoid similar incidents in the future."

"We pre booked our table 2 weeks in advanced. On arrival 1 hour before our booking we had an email to say our reservation had been cancelled. I rang through to the Plaza reception who transferred me to the Atrio restaurant, they apologised and said the table was still available. We arrived with myself and my 3 daughters to a sofa and very low table and two cosy sofa chairs. not really appropriate for dinner), we ordered our meal drinks, the was busy with people who seem to be stood around us. My Daughter ordered the pizza from the main menu. When she started to eat the pizza, a piece of chicken was sat underneath a slice!! We called over the waitress who kindly apologised and we had to sit and wait for another pizza. By this time my other two daughters had finished their meal. To which they only being 7 9 yrs old had to sit on the floor. Even though the service charge was waived. It was still an unpleasant experience with finding a piece of chicken underneath the margarita pizza and reserving a dinner table for 4 on advance only to be taken to a casual sofa. When there were other people sat on laptops not eating on actual tables. The service was very slow but only 2 staff on duty plus a manager. Who didn’t even come over personally to apologise. Other than that the Park county plaza hotel was lovely ."

"The restaurant was bustling when we arrived, but we were promptly seated. We quickly ordered our drinks, and the staff was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. We shared four appetizers and four main courses, and everything we tried was excellent. The scallops were absolutely divine! All the steaks were cooked to perfection, and my veal was incredibly tender and juicy. I couldn't help but steal bites of my partner's dish, and I absolutely plan to return to try more. Overall, we had a wonderful evening!"

"Firstly, If I could give this no stars I would!! The man behind the counter was so friendly when we first approached but it was a bit too friendly, came across as quite desperate for customers (restaurant was empty) this should have been the first red flag! He kept pushing the bacon and avocado baguette and the garlic chips! We decided to stay to eat and my sister ordered the bacon and avocado baguette with garlic chips and I ordered the same baguette he was so pushy, do you want chips, “no” do you want coleslaw “no” I just want a baguette!! The tables were all sticky and clearly not wiped down for new customers. Inside was so dark and dingy so we moved tables to the outside area in the mall! The food arrived and it was an absolute disgrace! The baguette was as dry as a bone, no butter, the bacon was the pre packed already cooked nasty tasting stuff and we had 2 minuscule pieces of avocado inside not at all worth the nearly 10 quid we paid! I went inside to complain and ask for a refund and that’s when the very friendly guy turned really nasty, shouting and in our face, couldn’t believe it!! He was so rude telling me everything has gone up and that’s why he has to give so little inside the baguettes, he did refund us in the end but that is more because we were making a scene and quite frankly he was probably embarrassed of the food that came out of his restaurant (sorry cafe) if it is even worthy of calling itself that!! Honestly there are many other nice sandwich bars in Croydon you don’t need to put yourself through that!!"

"Faced with last-minute New Year's plans, we were attracted by the convenient location and Mediterranean small plates menu in a pub setting. When we learned that the New Years menu was a fixed price mix of Mediterranean appetizers and traditional English roast beef or salmon, we thought that would please our party of diners so long as we could share plates and not have a full-price dinner for each person. The fixed assortment of Mediterranean appetizers included a duck pate which we asked to be substituted or removed, but the argumentative server insisted it couldn't be changed and it eventually came to the table anyway. Otherwise, the appetizers were unremarkable and proved to be the best part of the meal. After a loooong wait, the entrees of roast beef and salmon arrived. Both were extremely overcooked, slathered in unappealing sauces, and none of the accompanying vegetables were as advertised in the menu. The food quality was below that of a school lunch room. When we pointed out the differences and requested the listed Yorkshire pudding, the servers told us we must have had the wrong menus. We asked for a correct one but it was never produced. The miserable evening ground on for more than two hours with intermittent and unpleasant service from the staff. We eventually complained to the manager and he had the grace to subtract one fixed price meal from the charge. It was still an overpriced, memorably bad dining experience."

"what a pub. if you dog walkers for a local ale, they have it. if they are looking for local seafood at a reasonable price they have it. If their gin lovers are looking for a new bottle, they have to choose 105. by far the best pub in the opposite. my suggestion to the owner. move it 100 miles from north norfolk and people pay 5x the amount to eat and drink here."

"Went in for breakfast after having a positive experience the day before. Pancakes were stale around the edges, rolls we’re starting to go hard, and the ‘American Melt’ is just a bacon roll with cheese we were expecting something a little more interesting. A thing to note, if you order food as a large group it doesn’t all come out at the same time, 2 people at our table were finished before the last 2 got their meal. Staff were not very welcoming and we didn’t even get a ‘thank you’ when leaving a tip in the jar, which they definitely saw. Overall very disappointing after having such a lovely breakfast the day before. Don’t think I’ll be back as clearly there is no consistency."

"located in the cornwall street in the business district of the city, is opus, a restaurant known for its dedication to sustainability, social responsibility and community engagement. on Tuesday night we have selected three courses from the market menu, so called that the menu is joined after what is good and plentiful on the market. food with a basket of (cold and dry) brot we washed our appetite, we went directly into the pflasterhof pork terrine. presented on an elongated shape plate, similar to the terrine plate itself, the meat was surprisingly dense with little gel. with aromen remembering a Hog-Rost, the accompanying apfelpüre became artistic, but spearly around the plate dotted along with some fruity spicy vegetables including green flower cabbage. next we were treated with a turned-off menu plate from pan roasted scallops. a personal favorite of me, they were delicious, fresh, juicy and plump. my slow braided blade of bark was a very generous part of soft, fat meat, which was greatly improved by the accompanying jus. the star of this teller was the hearty horseradish monkey. meanwhile, my ess mate chose brixham market fish of the day, confit fenchel, steamed kartoffels and autumn green. the Béarnaise sauce has the juicy and as promised, market fresh fish that is considered cod. dessert was a citrus potset (creamy and intensively smooth,) with fruit salsa (tart) and short brot and icy blackberry parrot with poached brombeer; both were fresh, lively and delightful. the service was quiet so it was to curious diners like us to ask about the more unusual ingredients on the plate. price at £15.50 for three courses, the market menu offers exceptional value for money. on the menu a la carte are starter £7 £10, mostly are £10 £20, and most desserts are £7. overall a firm favorit with the smart deal that was eating conservative with few surprises. the quality of the raw components is clear and the aromene are left clean and uncomplicated according to the purpose to allow them to shine through. I would say, opus is a safe bet for diners, the qualitatiw high quality food with provenance at one of the smartest addresses of the city."
