"We probably should have looked more carefully at the website, but as they use the words. ‘Fine Dining’ in their strap line, that’s what we expected. They also promise a ‘warm welcome’…. This is a pub, with basic wooden tables, awful carpet etc. The staff are young and untrained. There was no welcome whatsoever, just shown to our table, order taken and delivered without eye contact or any kind of human interaction. It was cold as well with all the doors open. The food tasted good, but we would suggest that they represent themselves as they are, so others don’t have to be disappointed or misled. We’re looking forward to eating at our hotel again this evening, where there is a genuine welcome, great atmosphere and you feel that they are pleased you are there!"

"We originally travelled to Swansea for a gig but was cancelled, so we booked the Rasoi as a last minute thing, I hadn't heard of it before, but was really pleased we did. The minute we walked in we were welcomed by the staff and they were very friendly. The atmosphere and restaurant was great, the Christmas tree was up and looked very festive. The food was amazing. I can't fault this place. We will definitely be back Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"

"This restaurant is a hidden gem in the heart of Lincoln that should not be missed. The food is outstanding; the pulled pork is mouthwatering, the ribs are superb, and the sliders exceeded my expectations in size, offering fantastic value for money. The decor is warm and inviting, without any pretense, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. I've already been back and will definitely return again! Service: 5/5 Location: 4/5."

"We booked a table at The Willow for a birthday celebration and it didn 't disappoint. We were initially intrigued by the restaurant 's website and the range of food it offered and we were curious to see if it lived up to its promise. On arrival we were greeted and taken to our table all the tables were beautifully set out and the lighting was soft and ambient. Each table had a lily in a little vase and coupled with the shining glass and silverware and the unobtrusive music in the background, the impression was very positive and welcoming. Excellent first impressions! I ordered brill in a black squid ink batter, pea shoots and sweet potato fries and my wife, a vegan, ordered a Rainbow Salad and Falafel burger with sourdough bun and sweet potato fries. Both meals were of a very high quality: the fish was expertly cooked, fresh and delicious and the batter was remarkable and delectable. It was a revelation to us both to try sweet potato fries a first. They were delicious and very moreish and we will definitely be having them again. My wife was very taken with the Rainbow Salad and asked to see the ingredients for future reference. The Manager willingly showed us the restaurant book where we were able to see colour photos of all the dishes and their ingredients and any allergens and dietary information. For dessert my wife had a B Raw raspberry cheesecake (made with coconut) and on finding out that it was her birthday, the chef wrote 'Happy Birthday ' in dark chocolate sauce across the plate a really lovely touch! I had Almond and Chocolate Dome with raspberry ice cream: delicious too. All in all we had a wonderful, relaxed and enjoyable meal at The Willow. We will definitely be returning to sample more of the dishes on their extensive menu. There is something for everybody at The Willow: meat eaters, fish eaters, vegetarians and vegans are amply catered for and their philosophy of food is encouraging and to be recommended. Thank you very much!"

"Went for breakfast and despite 3 members of staff and only the ground floor open did not get served or even acknowledged by the staff. One guy seemed to prefer to stir a hot chocolate for 5 minutes rather than make eye contact. Eventually gave up and left wit still no acknowledgement. Not the first time this has happened so will never go again"

"We went here for lunch and we sat in bar there was a small additional restaurant area but we were happy in bar. A nice selection of beers ,food was ordered from a blackboard menu,my wife had the Thai red curry my wife said it was very hot which was perfect for her ,I had the Venison and red wine stew the meat was very tender ,we both agreed both meals were very tasty and as good as we’ve had anywhere. My only small criticism was that when my wife finished her food she pushed the plate to one-side at which the barmaid ask to take it away while I was still eating and was asking me while I had a mouthful of food if we wanted desserts Would we go back YES."

"Just had a take away ordered for 8 and collected spot on time. Should have realised when restaurant was totally empty and no staff there,in addition food was there boxed and ready. Good you may say however it was lukewarm and I had the feeling it had been awaiting my arrival for a while. The sea bass was overcooked by a mile and my trio was not as expected but that may be just me? The best thing as my wife ever the practical one,said the boxes were great and we can use them at home!"

"Friday Lunch between meetings..looked good from the window of grilled vegetables and platters. Once in it all fell down from there. Appauling service..four waiters all chatting..quiche was non plussed by salad was literally lettuce and tomatoes plonked on a plate then wine came after food...and the bread never came. I have walked past here many times and thought I would give it a try. Big mistake wish frnkly I had gone to Benugo next door. Or Gregg's quite frankly. S I wrote the waiters are still chatting and totally absorbed in their gossip.."

"Having been raised at the knees of Caribbean and African women, sometimes I’m just in need of some soul food. I’ve often gone past Mullins and seen that it is busy, and looks bright, clean, warm and friendly. And it is. The decor works really well. Low-key, warm and welcoming. Music is a soothing stream of lilting Caribbean classics. The waiting staff are lovely. So friendly. And the menu looks great. There isn’t too much of it, and it is quite hard to choose because it all sounds amazing. Price points are really good. But. The food is genuinely terrible. I went for a Creole fish stew. I don’t know how you can make a stew without flavour. When you are cooking things slowly and together, flavour infuses flavour. But not here. This was a good sized portion of piping hot well presented food. But my God it tasted awful. Basically chopped potato surrounded by small lumps of bland unidentifiable white fish, half a dozen mussels, some of which were still closed, and therefore inedible, and three flavourless prawns in shells. There was a pinch of Samphire on the top, and this was the sum total of the vegetables I could find. It came in what I can only describe as a thick red sauce. If there was tomato in it, there was no flavour to it. It was highly salty, and this was the dominant flavour throughout. The fish had no flavour of fish, and it was intensely spiced in a lip plumping way. Essentially, it was all heat and salt. With a slight tang of gents toilets. I suspect this was from the mussels. I did raise the blandness twice with the waiter, and the strange unpleasant toilet flavour. He said he would tell chef. And that was that. No feedback on the dreadful flavour other than that it was all fresh. I ate the entirety of the meal because I had travelled a long way and had not eaten. I saw it simply as fuel. It was not enjoyable. I paid and left. Mullins is so close to getting everything right, but a restaurant is its food. I’m not going back."

"I have just returned from a two night stay at this hotel which was enjoyable. The staff were particularly friendly and helpful. Our room was on the second floor and looked out onto the extensive grounds. I made a mistake by not enquiring as to whether the hotel had a lift as my sister-in-law had walking difficulties. However, she managed. Our meal arrangement was breakfast and dinner in the evening to include nibbles and two courses from the menu. If we required a further course, this was an extra. We had a delightful Vietnamese waitress on our first evening by the name of Le. She was absolutely charming. She informed us that this weekend the hotel had an Indian Wedding taking place and that an elephant would be arriving for the ceremony. We were sorry we couldn 't witness the proceedings. One thing I would like to mention is that the hotel is on an incline and when exiting, it is very difficult to see the traffic approaching and a mirror on the opposite side of the road would be helpful."

"This was without doubt the most disgusting meal I've ever had the displeasure to encounter. There were only 3 options one of which was veggie (my daughter said it was revolting) and two mains. None of us had the pork so can't comment on that but the beef brisket, despite being really tender, was completely tasteless, the roasties were soggy as were the yorkshire puddings. The spring greens were rubbery and the peas hard how can you get peas wrong? The only nice thing was the horseradish sauce which came out of a jar. I had one mouthful of each and paid and left in high dudgeon. We went because the internet said it was the best sunday lunch in Cambridge. Obviously this was not true. Shame really as the staff were lovely. Also their weekday menu has a lot of variety and was really tasty. I can only assume the good reviews were written by people with no tastebuds. Needless to say I will not be eating there again"

"The exchange has always been our favourite Greenock restaurant and food was always really good. However we were so delighted to hear that Mary and Eve, formally of Fusion Gourock, have now joined the exchange team!!! Fusion was our favourite Gourock restaurant and the food was alway incredible. The new updated Exchange menu has merged both restaurants menus together and it’s fantastic! As always the staff in the exchange are always fabulous and we can never fault the service. If you’ve never been or haven’t been in a long time, I highly recommend going and trying their new menu. We had the mushroom risotto, steak pie, chicken supreme, sticky tai beef and open steak sandwich, a mix of classics from both menus. It was delicious."

"The service was lovely at My Thai but unfortunately everything else was not. The food was not thai food. It was as if someone googled a thai food menu and attempted to copy dishes but didn't read the actual ingredients. Seriously lacking flavour. The music was extremely loud, which caused everyone to yell in order to hear each other, making the dining room even louder. Also, €16 for a papaya salad is absurd. Especially when it's not an authentic thai papaya salad. Shame. But, other people seemed to enjoy it, so if you aren't looking for real thai food and enjoy the night-club ambiance for your dinner, this may be somewhere you'd like!"

"Not a vegan not a vegetarian and no allergies. To be honest on arrival the menu scared me to death not really being sure what everything was. I orderred and as i saw food coming out looking stunning. My dish did not disappoint either, looking very healthy and ooozing flavour. Great welcome and engaging staff. Watching the chef work was great to the care and concentration was obvious. If you happen to be in Godshill and fancy treating yourself, just plump for anything on the menu. It will be georgeous and tasty. Over the moon i gave it a try!!!"

"5 Stars??? Yes I do feel generous sometimes, unlike the teachers in high school who never wanted to shell out that extra half a mark for a spelling mistake. Let 's get back to Manhattan Grill and analyse (food reviewing is very serious business I tell ya! how and why they deserve full marks. I am more of a West London girl and I like the Victorian and Georgian buildings but the walk to Manhattan Grill, especially the pretty bridge you have to cross from Canary Wharf to reach your destination (Manhattan Grill is extremely romantic (that is the best word I could use, I promise . The external ambience of any restaurant does add to its charm. Oh did I mention that this steak house is a part of Mariott, these guys are ace when it comes to such things! I made a reservation before going and I was extremely delighted to see that the manager remembered my name without having to look at one of those black diaries. The service was a bit slow initially (it took them a while to get us water which we requested for but the overall service made up for that little jolt. I was generous to take a friend of mine along with me (nothing is worse than eating alone, I promise to try this place (did I mention that I won a voucher from this lovely site? Woohoo Zomato! and we decided to go for cocktails instead of wine, think we both had enough of wine over the weekend. While I was trying to carefully pick a cocktail from the menu and looking rather confused, the manager suggested that we had to the bar where an extremely experienced bar genius will talk us through all of them. We made our way to a very old fashioned (in a nice way looking bar called the G&T bar and as the name suggests they specialise in Gin. The bar genius, Sam made us try some lovely Gin from around the world Saffron infused Gin, Spice route Gin and a very London Gin. All of them had their own distinctive tastes I am not a neat spirit kind of girl but even I loved all of them especially the silk route or spice route gin (yeah yeah make those lame curry jokes, go on because I could taste the cinnamon, cardamom and other gorgeous spices. He made me a cocktail with that gin and added some more exciting things to it which included rosemary, chocolate and orange liquor BLISS. Before entering the restaurant I was starving but all this Gin excitement made me forget my hunger but by the time my cocktail was ready the waiter came and said : 'Madam your Steak is ready ' Perfect Timing! I went for the rib eye steak with creamy mash and red wine sauce keep it simple! My steak was perfectly cooked medium well (just the way I like and it was MASSIVE! A person with my appetite can never finish one of those, and needless to say I didn 't either! After being rather satisfied with my steak and cocktail, we ordered for a Manhattan Raspberry Cheesecake It was again simple but delicious. Perfect sweetness, I don 't like my cheesecakes to be extremely sugary and a generous crust nom nom nom. And... I am running out of stars! Verdict : Stunning location, Great service, Knowledgeable bar genius with a great moustache, Beautiful,well done meat and yummy desserts That m 'dear is a perfect dinner! I shall rest my case here. You can read more details on my blog."
"On first glance this looked promising as the menu was clearly marked with gf, and items came out with flags for allergies. However, by the end of the meal I was starting to feel ill and in the night I was running to the bathroom which spoilt the next day as well. We were a large party and some of my colleagues ended up with mixed up orders so there was obviously something wrong that night. Perhaps it is better if you are a small group but beware!"

"We had a pleasant evening for six of us in a lovely setting with a nice atmosphere. However, the food seemed a bit overpriced. For example, the scallop starter was £16 for just one scallop, and the trout portion was similarly small. The main courses were cooked exceptionally well, particularly the beef Wellington, which four of us ordered. However, the portions of vegetables on our plates were minimal. We also ordered extra sides, including crispy rosemary potatoes, but they were so crispy that they were nearly inedible, and there was no trace of rosemary. Looking back, given the amount we spent, the overall experience was somewhat disappointing. Unfortunately, we likely won't be returning."
