"Genuinely one of my favourite high end restaurants! AMAZING food…great entertainment and very good atmosphere. Food is not halal but they have vegetarian and fish options available and they do serve mocktail as well as cocktails and alcohol here. Be aware that food arrives as it is cooked so there is no order as to how the food comes out. There is limited parking around the area so please bare that in mind if you plan to drive, otherwise Uber is a good alternative. The interior is so elegantly designed and the staff are welcoming (most of the time), there is a cloak room for your coats and items, just ask a waiter! The speedy wait time on food is definitely a plus! I highly recommend this restaurant, although please be advised it does get much louder in the evening after 10.30 so not very ideal after this point if you want to have serious conversations. Also note they have a reduced menu after 11.30pm. Fridays and Saturdays are very busy so I have noticed the quality of service drops a bit in comparison to the other days and I have encountered unfriendly stuff at the door especially during my last visit hence the rating. I found this upsetting because as I mentioned previously it is one of my favourite food places and appreciate the quality of food served. They have a live band/DJ in the evenings."

"Amazing. I recently took my mother to the Crazy Bear on Saturday last week for her birthday surprise. I have to say we both really enjoyed it. I was a lovely girlie evening. On arrival we were met by the hostess, who was all smiles and made us feel so welcome. She promptly took our coats and we were escorted downstairs to the bar for pre-dinner drinks. We sat at the bar where we were instantly handed a drinks menu by a hunky bar tender, named Santi I believe? Ladies, you have to meet this guy, he is gorgeous and makes a mean Martini! After our drinks we were taken upstairs to our table in the restaurant. The food was delicious, we had huge amounts of sushi, which was divine! Much better...read more"

"For the love of god, if you like food, don't eat here. I never leave bad reviews, but this place pushed me over the edge. We went on a Monday for the £25 4 course special set menu. The server asked if we wanted it all at once. I said no, we are sharing the courses but want it course by course. It came all at once: the samphire and wakame salad which was just wakame and the only really good dish; the cauliflower poppers which were perfect, except the sickly sweet maybe barbecue sauce maybe ketsup; the dry chicken with lovely mushroom leeks covered by a wasabi peppercorn cream sauce so revolting we literally scraped it off despit our love of wasabi; and the pork belly which would have been delish if not burned. What didn't come was the rice or first course mushroom salad which were delivered after asking only three times. And the mushroom salad was some conction of baby greens and dried mushrooms with a tahini dressing that we could only describe as gross. The entire meal was accompanied by easy listening versions of 70s to 90s hits best belong in a bank elevator and indifferent wait staff. Desperate to leave, and not fond of sweets, I declined the dessert course only to have the (more senior? waiter (who noticed my desperation? pressure me into eating. Nope. I think this might be the first one star I've given... I try to only review what I love but was so amazed by how very terrible the food and service was here I wanted to let others know: not worth your time or money."

"one of the best Japanese restaurants I was. what a tasty bite and must sit directly on the back of the restaurant. at the arrival were the staff super friendly and very helpful with the menu and drink choice, it was a smooth experience. I stayed until the end when the time passed. an excellent selection of dresses to choose from, sushi to grill meat and directly over the board. cocktails are so delicious, and a nice effort was made by them. transport, easy to park in and around the opposite and north dulwich station is just around the corner. overall, very nice and I hope they have the same experience or make them want to go. solid a ldt x"

"Not having been before, we reserved a table for Friday lunchtime. No need, nobody else ate there but deliveroo were in and out all the time. The food was amazing, especially the sushi and sashimi. Offered fish not normally served in our local Japanese restaurant. Tempura was good. However, there was no heating and we froze. When we mentioned this we were told it was winter! I would love to eat here again but wouldn't book. If it was really cold I'd leave and eat at one of the many restaurants nearby. Or perhaps a takeaway."

"I felt strongly enough to edit my first review. Change of ownership, who knows....., but something has changed. Poor, surly service from a Japanese woman miserably sitting on her mac in the corner while an attentive, pleasant waitress tried to go about her work. All gyoza's i ordered were not available. The one is did i knew well AS I BUY IT FROM THE CHINESE SUPERMARKET and its cooked from frozen. Its a bit demoralising paying £2.50 for 5 of something when you know a giant bag costs a fiver!!! Miso soup was good again. Noodle dish was'nt great but above all attitude from the Japanese woman truly stunk. I shall not be returning until i've heard that its changed. OLD REVIEW Ordered a takeaway for 2 4. The miso soup was good (and i make my own miso soup and the sushi was decent enough. Its a nice little place and it helps to support your local business. The gyozo (a? japanese dumplings were good. I would go back here again but i do think that when its busy, you could be waiting a little bit. You'd expect that of a reasonably small place though."

"This pub is a great part of the Byfords empire. Last week they had 9 real ales available, all of which were very enjoyable. On Tuesdays and Fridays at 5pm, they offer free sausages at the bar. While they also have a steak night, which can be a bit pricey, this pub is mainly for enjoying a drink and conversation. They offer traditional pub games and if you're unsure about which ale to choose, they are happy to offer you a taster. The toilets are also clean."

"I had the most delightful evening at the Britannia, returning after a long time. It’s always been great, but it’s just gotten better! The manager was so welcoming and gifted me a glass of bubbly on arrival for my birthday, so lovely! Then he let us choose where we wanted to sit. The menu was varied with several seafood options too. All the food was of a very high standard. I had the tempura prawns with a very light and crispy batter and tasty prawns, then the lamb rump with dauphinois potatoes and green beans. It was delicious and the meat was cooked exactly as I’d asked. A substantial wine menu offering also. It had more of a restaurant feel than when I last visited, with white table cloths etc. but I think this works as felt more of a special dining experience for a birthday. Thank you so much for a great evening!"

"it's sad to see how every visit in tokii, the service goes simply continuous. on my recent visit I was told that they could not serve me because the kitchen was not ready for the afternoon tea set I requested. they place the responsibility on open table and blame it on a communication error between the app and them. it was clear, however, that the restaurant had shown the reservation on the screen and since there were 5 hours from my booking to the actual date, there was enough time to inform us about the missing availability. the host offered to book us for another time, but this is not sufficient compensation for all guests who travel all the way to try out their products only to be put on the door. I acknowledge that it is not quite tokii fault, but as a hotel restaurant that is proud of its hospitality, there is much more to wish than that."

"Fine food and Issues Decided to visit as the reviews were mainly great. Arrived to find it looked ten minutes after due to be open. They were just opening the door. I went in and quickly used the toilet, not flushed by last person that used it! It's a well laid out, well decorated restaurant. I chose the Escargots as my starter, well cooked with a very small amount of sauce sadly no tongs to hold the shell. They were 6 very nice molluscs. The main was an absolutely sensational tasty seafood salad. Interesting dressing on a generous variety of sea food and nice salad. I had ordered a lime and soda, it transpired they had no lime so someone went out to buy some and could only get lemon, which was ok. When it came to the desert I liked the idea of four of them but ordered the lemon tart. A few minutes later the lady running front of house (I later discovered it was her first day in post!! Returned hugely apologetic telling me sadly they had no lemon tart. I chose the cherry clafouti and a few minutes later the young lady came back devastated to tell me they had none of that either! I eventually had a brownie, which she didn't charge me for. Must confess it didn't excite and the supplied ice cream was quite crystallised as if it had been refrozen. The table next to me were told they had no more Escargot, so clearly they opened with only one portion available. Front of house was good, 2/3 of the food I had was great but clearly someone needs to sort out the kitchen too many problems to give customers confidence of availability. Was it worth the trip? Oh yes but they have some serious organisational issues to resolve."

"As usual the food was of a very high standard but due to the fact that no manager was available and our regular waitress was also not there, service was not as good as it usually is. There were two comi waiters who tried very hard, were most polite and did their utmost to serve in a proper way. It was just a pity that they had not received the training that the regular staff seem to have. We and our friends will, of course, go again and hope that by next time there will be some more experienced waiting staff available to serve."

"Every time I have visited the service and attentiveness has been very good. The food has been really good. On this occasion we felt a little bit ignored and underwhelmed by the whole experience. Staff not very eager to chat or check in with us. Never noticed or said goodbye when we left."

"Very good. this renovated and updated gastro pub has a beautiful, high-end feeling, without too posh. the personal is pleasant, real and well maintained. good drink selection! music selection didn't seem fit, but not extraordinarily. eating is exceptional, but, based on some personal preferences, there were slightly smaller disappointments with each dish. all were presented beautifully! the scallop starter was perfectly cooked, but there was an unexpected sticky texture on the sea red side. the chilis needed something sweet to balance them, but it was a nice warm pop. the acid from the grapefruit mixed with the petersilie mayonnaise drizzle, but both were delicious. some either flash-frozen or dry germinated greens gave beautiful texture, and the dish as a whole was beautiful. the duck ice starter was rich without being hard. slowly boiled (inspiring sous vide,) the egg was perfect. it was on a bed of slowly baked cheekwange, which is longing! some picking mushrooms have also added beautiful acid contrast. the brioche disc on which everything sat was not my favorite, but again can be personal preference. it seemed too thick, dense and sweet for the court. either would have been a nice sourded or an airy crawling cut my choice. again a very tasty dish. the healbutt main was absolutely wonderful! in butter lubricated, with fennel, white asparagus, a butter sauce with raw and squid-ink pasta. all with dill fronds. only small critique was the toughness of the tips of the braided fennel without knife, which is suitable for cutting through. a unique and very pleasant experience! it was great."

"Got persuaded to get wagyu steak which is totally way too fatty for 2 ppl to share a 500g wagyu steak. Wish the waiter would make that clearer to us how fatty it would be, it’s more something to have a couple of slices each and then have a standard steak. That plus some crab and two starters came up to over £500 for 2 ppl. Second most overpriced meal I ever had. Safe to say won’t be coming back anytime soon."

"I and my family have been regularly in the hawes for many years and is a firm favorite of my Canadian family when they visit. five of us visited last night and we were all disappointed about the service that was painfully slow. we had to ask three times for our drinks. our eating took an old and two of our group had almost her head before the rest of us even had our meal before us. we decided that it will take too long to order desserts and some had baileys and I as a driver ordered a cappuccino. again, that was waiting long. my coffee was hardly warm, had no cappuccino frit and could not even melt a sugar cube. I was embarrassed that I had taken four friends to dinner, and each of us is very disappointed and extremely underwhelmed to say the least! a beautiful renovation of the spatial areas was removed from a bad, bad service. I would also like to add, there is not a pasta dish on the menu that I find a little incredible and I was told that I could not order a ceaser salat, as it was served only for lunch, so an salat was also not an option. very disappointed to say the least."

"We were delighted to know that a Thai restaurant would be opening in Tonbridge and we have never been disappointed in all the times we've been there for dinner. The food is delicious, full of flavour the portions generous. Both food drinks are served with a smile the atmosphere is always very vibrant. You have to book in advance though because it's very popular but it's well worth the visit."
