"I received an email saying trip advisor thought I was referring to the wrong business. I am referring to the restaurant Olio in the hotel, Homewood, Freshford, Bath. I admit at first I said the advertising suggests a contemporary and enjoyable restaurant in a relaxing...environment but after reading the website, relaxing is mentioned at breakfast times only. But, having previously had a number of enjoyable lunches here before, decided to book an evening meal and asked our friends to join. The dome we had, which are currently a feature of their terrace was lovely, as was the salad, that’s about it. Poor service and a culture that allows people to shout, sing and yell all evening, knowing it’s impacting everyone around them, is not a place for me. Being greeted at reception and told to sit in the bar, to waiting minutes for a drink, a further minute delay to the table. To effectively a “heat up” of meat on the BBQ, and one person serving those in terrace, led to a disappointing experience all round. When I asked if the behaviour of the group is accepted as the norm, I was told the group visit weekly and became clear the restaurant feels they have to accommodate such poor behaviour. It’s a shame, I had booked for friends to come back in a couple of weeks as well as further booking later in the autumn and have now be cancelled the bookings."

"My wife and I picked this place on a whim on a Tuesday night while traveling in Dublin. It exceeded our expectations. The food was honestly some of the best Italian I’ve had. The staff was very attentive as well. Highly recommended."

"The steak was delicious. The service was a bit slow. I asked for thick steak fries, but only thin fries were available. The salad before the steak was confusing and some of it was brown. The avocado salad had too much lettuce and not enough avocado. The lamb was well-cooked, but I wish there were more lamb options available, such as lamb steak or grilled lamb. I wasn't a fan of the tandoori seasoning on the lamb. The dauphinoise potatoes were not the best. The duck and duck wings were tasty, but the duck was a bit too strong in flavor. Overall, I would consider going back because the restaurant was clean and the service was good, even though it was slow. The aged rib was incredibly delicious. I was hoping for a nice half tomato and a thick creamy peppermint sauce."

"The steak was excellent, but we were disappointed with the overall experience considering the £115 we paid. The half of a lettuce covered in dressings that came with the steak was not what we expected. The roasted vegetables were drenched in oil, making them slimy and wilted. The chips were clearly frozen and not homemade. The onion loaf was also of questionable quality, being rock hard. Despite these issues, the staff was friendly. Overall, the service was good, with a rating of 4 out of 5. The atmosphere was pleasant, also receiving a rating of 4 out of 5. Price per person for dinner was around £50-60."

"From the moment we walked in, we felt like the only customers in the restaurant. We felt like VIPs, which added to our overall dining experience. The food was outstanding and the prices were very budget-friendly."

"The staff were lovely and could not do more however, there were only 2 staff on and they were very harassed although they their best not to show it. The starter was excellent but The prime burger was very dry with a very sad piece of lettuce and tomatoe on it.. the chips were lukewarm. The dessert was average and we were only offered other drinks quite a while after we had eaten. We decided not to stay for tea and coffee. We used to eat here very regularly and always at Christmas but I don’t think we will be back for quite some time."

"Lovely lunch for a birthday meal. Fish and chips had a beautiful light batter and fab chunky chips. Pork belly was so tender and just fell apart, my Husband enjoyed every bite. Beef and pancetta burger was also spot on. Service was quick. Good atmosphere and I also bought two amazing sausage rolls to take away. Very keen to return again soon!"

"Everything is perfect. Staff is friendly and professional. Me and my partner enjoyed the dinner a lot. Except for the main course . Both of our steak was a bit over-cooked. I will still recommend this restaurant to my friend and family in Leeds."

"Do not be fooled into thinking that this is an Italian restaurant, when the head waitress could not find our booking she informed us that they dont check open table bookings any more, they did find the booking and set a table for us anyway, then we chose food from the set menu 2 courses for £16.95 each, when the bill came they had charged from the main menu, we had already paid the bill when this was discovered, we pointed out that we had chosen from the set menu they then set about trying to rectify there mistake, after fifteen minutes they finallt gave up say that accounts would fix this later and refund the difference to the card, guest relations manager then informed us we would be invited back for lunch because of the inconveinence caused(still waiting on that call)"

"If they want to feel like they want to get on the set of a james bond film set, they need to visit it. blooming brilliance is up to the 2nd august 2015, but don't let them stop visiting it. we sat in the rib room for a drink that already felt like a secret spy and ordered a martini, not stirred, but unfortunately it comes so that I could not say the iconic line. the martini with an orange was shaken a beautiful drink for me, during my wonderful stay at the bar too sip. we talked to rihards, the barman who was a fountain of knowing about the hotel and every cocktail and drinking behind the bar. he introduced us...read more"

"We came on a Sunday , of us. Including my nephew years Our waitress Cleopatra could not have been more accommodating, she entertained the little one to no end. There is currently no childrenâs menu but they went out of there way to provide something suitable for a year old. Which was perfect. I had the chicken burger and my brother had the beef burger... both were really good! Would highly recommend. Also a really nice secluded sun Terrance. Will definitely be back.. thank you cleopatra !"

"Wasn’t overly impressed. Sweet potato fries and husbands skinny fries both seemed really greasy. Bread for a nibble at for four thin dry slices of bread seemed excessive. As was for small pieces of pork in an overly greasy tampura batter. Steak wasn’t the best I’ve had and came with half a mushroom!! Didn’t have dessert as didn’t want to spend any more!! Wouldn’t come back. Water jug was stainless steel and seemed dirty and water stained."

"The waitress appeared unhappy and poured a whole bottle of wine into the glasses. It seems she could use some training on pouring smaller portions of wine. The beetroot panna cotta starter was disappointing, as one of them lacked color and flavor. When we mentioned it, we were told it was due to it not separating properly. The ice cream tasted low quality. We also ordered bread and oils, but the starters arrived before we could even start on them. It would have been better to wait until we finished the bread before bringing out the starters."

"I can't fault the staff for their efforts, and to be fair, the steak is not terrible. However, I would not recommend this restaurant overall. The add ons were poor quality and overpriced. The chips were very disappointing, and the vegetables seemed like they came from a can. The rack of ribs was especially disappointing - it seemed like they were microwaved from a plastic bag and had a high markup in price. If you're looking for friendly staff and mediocre, overpriced food, then this place is for you. Otherwise, I would suggest trying elsewhere, as I will not be returning."

"After booking this on the 18/8/2022 for 4 people you asked for special requests , I specifically asked for the table at the window as it was a special birthday , when I arrived we got put so from the window I was in shock ! I never mentioned anything on our arrival due to a couple already been seated after us ,I checked my emails as to look if I have been previously told that this request was not available but I did not , it completely ruined the expectations of our experience , this is only positive feedback as if you can’t make requests don’t ask"

"This restaurant is a wonderful local gem. My group enjoyed delicious camembert and mushroom starters, followed by a tasty chicken pie. The staff added an extra touch to our dining experience with their friendly and welcoming service. The price per person ranged from £20 to £30, but the quality of the food, service, and atmosphere was well worth it. I highly recommend trying the Extra Crusty Baguette. There is plenty of parking available for customers, with a free parking lot as an option."

"I've been pulling out here for years, I thought it was too much hype for a chain. but wow it was amazing! the service was perfection that was eating was incredible, the atmosphere was exactly right (no hot or cold, either what is a miracle for me and beyond that the bathroom was spotless and clearly checked by the staff. I always think that the condition of a bathroom can make or break a restaurant experience and it is often a stone some of the more expensive places rely on curveless, but not here. absolutely perfect to celebrate my birthday!"

"This is a lovely historic pub/restaurant tucked away in a little side alley. The bar area was quite busy for a Sunday evening and we were shown to a table in the dining room on first floor which has an outside terrace. We chose from set menu which was excellent. Service was friendly and professional. We could only manage two courses but enjoyed a coffee on the terrace to finish. I would have given 5 stars but the ladies toilets were a disgrace. Broken toilet seat, overflowing bins and not very clean. It's a real shame because everything else was perfect."
