"We love PPA and have been coming here as a family for a couple of years, since moving to Winchester. It has been a real shame that lockdown has prevented them from operating as usual it was great to go back tonight for a treat, just the two of us. The front of house greeting and service was superb, and we really felt welcomed. Drinks and food orders were taken quickly, and the waiter returned to check that the order received by the kitchen was correct (far better than risking getting it wrong). Wine was ice cold and served properly. Starters were very nice, although in our gluttony we ordered too much the Thai ribs are melt in the mouth tender meat, and the size of a small steak. Partner's lemongrass fish skewers were likewise lovely. We also ordered the tempura vegetables, which were divinely crispy and tasty and I ate too many...... My main course of coconut/cashew crusted chicken on top of mango salad was lovely, the crunch was great against the sharp fruity salad. Partner had sea bass loved it. Far too full to consider dessert but that was our fault entirely. I have no hesitation in recommending this excellent restaurant the fact that the waiter looked concerned at my not competely cleared plate (which was due to my aforementioned gluttony) and asked if everything had been OK just exemplifies how much the team cares about their customers. There was a kind, understanding smile offered when we pointed out we were completely stuffed, though! Tiny point to conform (I think) with govt regs re: COVID 19 the ceiling fans/air con were on full blast and it was freezing cold. Management sorted it out quickly by turning it down when we pointed out the temperature issue take a cardigan though. A really great restaurant with a really great manager and whole team. Such a pleasure to eat at PPA we will be back."

"Staff were so rude, aggressive, unprofessional, and judgmental when we visited for my birthday dinner on Saturday evening. I arrived first before my partner and was shown to a table upstairs right next to the door. It looked as though I may block the door when sitting down. My partner is almost 7 feet tall and definitely wouldn’t be able to sit comfortably without blocking the door, nor could he sit on the other side of the table as it was pushed up against the neighbouring table. I called a passing waitress and told her about my partner’s height and how I didn’t think we’d be able to sit there. She looked at me angrily and said “we don’t have any other tables”, to which I replied okay, I’m sure it’ll be fine- I just don’t want to block the door. The server then huffed at me and walked back down the stairs to which I could see her talking with another server and pointing to me up the stairs. It felt very uncomfortable, like I was being judged and laughed at. When my partner arrived he attempted to sit down and could only just squeeze into the seat. My partner called another server over, a different one this time, who was just as rude. This time they seem confused as to what it was we wanted/what the problem was, even though my partner was clearly having trouble sitting at/getting into the chair due to his height. The waiter angrily showed us to another table. We then heard the table next to us who had clearly been waiting for a long time if they could order their food. My partner and I decided that we didn’t want to stay and so we left the restaurant. We’ve been regular customers of Bar Soba, but after this experience, we definitely won’t be back. I’ve checked the other reviews and this isn’t the first time something like this has happened. AVOID this restaurant!"
