"I like to eat Central European and when the chance appeared on an Austrian restaurant in london, I grabbed it with both hands. two of us went to dinner on Friday night. here is what we have ordered: bratwurst andkäsewurst .both very good, but the bratwurst was more beautiful. rosencarbon t-bone the calves was good. the fries were nice, but a tad cool. excellent that they use rosen's wreath. spaezle with speck (big) very nice, although a smaller would have been enough broccoli with cheese firma and not overcooked. omas strängel with ice cream was the strängel very moderately imiserschmarr’n with a kirschkomponat beautiful, but could have been a tad warmer and fluffier. So eating was generally in order, even though we thought it was a bit expensive. all this plus a apple juice and a glass of Austrian weines came only with the service fee. the service, I must say, was very good. the waiters were all kind. although we did not need help with the menu, our neighbours and the guy patiently explained. we really didn't like it. Apart from the wood panels on which they served the steak and the sausage, everything was in email dishes and some of them were chipped. we don't know if it was a concept or a shabby chick, but we hated it! enamel dishes reminded us of terrible children's camping trips. our puddings came into something similar dog bowls. imiserschmarrn was the favorite dessert of imperial franz joseph i. and they saw it fit to serve it in a shiny enamel bowl!"

"We visited Dover Marine Hotel yesterday 16th December 2023 for a Christmas lunch. We have visited many times with family for coffees at this Hotel, but never for lunch, so we had no expectations. From the moment we arrived we were treated with courtesy and attentiveness . We were taken to our table which was a lovely crescent shaped banquette and seated. We had a wait of half an hour for our meal in which time we were given fresh French bread, plenty of water and our specified wine and drinks. Our orders taken we were able to take in the atmosphere which was tastefully decorated in the English Christmas tradition with lit Xmas trees. Our starters salmon and peppers and mozzarella were light, finely prepared and the Game Pie was very filling all were delicious. The mains were all traditional roast Turkey which lay almost regally across our plates with its courtiers of Brussel sprouts, carrots, French beans, pigs in blankets and stuffing. Finishing with a home made brownie, superb ice cream and a Dickensian plum pudding. Coffee was offered but declined . Our extended family live abroad so we have made it a yearly event to celebrate with them in spirit at various local eateries and restaurants We all agreed that this lunch was the best not only for its excellent cuisine, but most importantly for its wonderful service. All the staff in the restaurant and throughout the Hotel were impeccable in their manner, in particular our two waiters Paolo was one who served us and nothing was too much trouble. We wish to commend the whole experience."

"I have been wanting to visit here for ages but the stars have never aligned until Saturday. We were extremely lucky to get a walk in for the two of us. We were greeted by the owner and shown to a table. As we didn't have any drinks with us Peter suggested Tesco a few doors down and I was able to grab a bottle to enjoy with the meal. The service was wonderful and friendly and it felt like we had been going there for years, with just the right amount of care and advice. The food was exceptional from start to finish. We had the chicken satay and spring rolls to start and they were beautiful. The satay was amazing and was much darker in colour than any I have had before, but much better in flavour than any I have had before, I would definitely have these again. For main I had a chicken rendang and my wife ordered gule monkfish. The rendang was again perfect for my tastes. Spicy but flavourful with a generous portion that would satisfy the majority of eaters. I would have had seconds, even though I was stuffed because it was so good. I can't comment too much on the monkfish as I have a dislike of seafood, but my wife raved about it and said she's having the same again next time without question. So I think that sums it up. We finished with deserts of a rice pudding dish I think was called bubar, which was black rice and coconut, and the second dish we ordered was a Banana coconut pancake to which I forget the name. Again I couldn't find fault if I tried another 10 out of 10. At the end of the meal we met owner and chef Ami, who came to chat. It was lovely speaking to the owners and their passion for the food and customer service was clear. We cannot wait until our next visit"

"My friends who have known the place for like 20 years, took me there one evening, and when you first glance at the menu you may not realise yet how good and fresh the food is going to be, as presentations are not fussy or posh. It is a simple looking place. Yet, once our dishes were served on our table, I realised I was in for a treat. My seabass arrived perfectly cooked, the way I like it (as I asked for no butter in mine). It was fresh, generous portions and as good as any fancy restaurant I have been to. The mixed veggies that comes with it, surpassed my expectations: delicious asparagus, broccoli, roasted carrots and perfectly tender baby potatoes. Excellent homemade bannofee pie too. Simplicity as its best. Merci. 10/10."

"We had an early dinner, around 5:30pm on a weekday, and the restaurant was practically empty. But after seating us, the wait staff took forever to take our orders. They seemed more interested in chatting with each other, even though I tried several times to catch their attention first by looking at them (which is usually sufficient in most restaurants) and then by waving my hand (several times). They did come around while we were eating whether we needed something else, but oddly they did not ask how the food was; I would have told the truth: it was a letdown. I had fried spring rolls and beef brisket pho. Both were not as good as the (high) price would indicate. I was expecting the pho to be really good, after all that's what the restaurant is called. The soup was bland and the meat was rubbery; I had to add sriracha to add flavour. This restaurant is very near my office and I love Vietnamese food but I will not be coming back to this place. If only the food was very good, I would have been forgiving of the bad service; or if the service was outstanding, I would have been more tolerant of the bland food. Unfortunately, this restaurant offers neither."

"Took my better half for the first time earlier, booked on the Tuesday before and probably wise as it was very busy at half past six . Starters consisted of prawn crackers ,chicken spring rolls and crispy wontons to share ,mains was chicken chow mein and chicken in a hot (not chillie sauce ,both meal were larger than expected and struggled to finish if being honest ,very tasty and very attentive staff,only disappointment was the fact that they don't do non alcoholic beers which is quite surprising as it's sold everywhere and I do think they should consider stocking to discourage any temptation to drink drive other than that it was a very enjoyable meal."

"Ordered Sweet and Sour chicken balls and chips for takeaway. Received and the chips weren't cooked properly and were pale and the chicken balls were so hard I think they were re heated. I will never order from this place again. The sweet and sour sauce had a water like consistency. Absolutely disgusting food, used to be amazing but not anymore. Very expensive now. Food: 1"

"I’ve been to Daquise with Italian friends as per usual, but this time it was for my birthday. I put my birthday present next to me under the table in a little bag and in the general mess it was stolen. When I realized it, I told the owner and we were the last ones left in the whole place, they had just finished cleaning and the staff hurried out of the place without saying anything. Unfortunately it is almost certain that it was one of the staff while cleaning as it was under the table and had a necklace inside, there were few customers besides us and there was always someone at the table, except the one time we were outside to say goodbye and leave, and the staff was cleaning. No customer would go around looking underneath the tables anyway, and grabbing a random plastic bag, especially as they are having dinner in south kensington. Besides us there were very few people, especially while we are all there. Unfortunately they don’t even have internal cameras, which means anything could happen in that place but they take no responsibility whatsoever. In all this the manager Ted was of a unique arrogance. He denied everything by refusing to cooperate and laughing at me. When I called him to ask if he had any news, he started screaming at me to overlap my voice, saying he did not care and hung up halfway through the phone call and told me not to come any more as this doesn’t change anything for him. Saying that they have no cameras and that the woman we suspect of is working there with her mother and sister, so if anything making it all even less credible on their part and easy to deny. All this to say it was an absurd and frustrating experience, especially given the emotional value of the gift. completely unreliable staff and the manager, Ted, of an immeasurable arrogance.<br br"

"I went to this restaurant with my family for a coffee and lunch. We were seated quickly as it wasn't too crowded. We ordered food and coffee, and the menu looked promising. Our coffee arrived after 10 minutes, but we ended up waiting 1 1/2 hours and still didn't receive our food. We decided to cancel our order, pay for the coffee, and leave. It seemed like phone orders were prioritized over in-person customers, as a delivery driver came and went during our wait. As we were leaving, we heard the staff informing new customers to expect an hour wait. If we had known this beforehand, we would have gone somewhere else. The restaurant wasn't very busy, with more empty tables than occupied ones. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience and I will not be returning."

"Gorgeous little place, loved the 50s music and the decor but the food was just so greasy, it made me feel sick! As I say, I might have been unlucky.... My husband had potato skins and a chickpea burger and said it was very good. I would return and try something different! Or maybe even just hold out for the sticky toffee pudding option!"

"I have ordered take-out from Shanghai twice in the past week. The first time I had it delivered was towards the end of last week and it was so good that I drove there to get an updated menu and ordered again yesterday afternoon. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and it was great to see that they handle their own deliveries (mine arrived within 25 minutes of placing the order). All the ingredients are clearly fresh and the vegetables have the perfect amount of crunch. I got 2 large spring rolls and the schezuan chicken with fried rice. The spring rolls were almost a meal on their own, and the main courses were very generous. I had a delicious breakfast the next morning, with some leftovers for a lunch snack. If you enjoy high-quality, freshly prepared Chinese food, you must give this place a try - you will not be disappointed. I also suggest ignoring any negative reviews, as they clearly did not dine at the same place. In the immortal words of Arnold Schwarzenegger... I'll be back!!"

"Lovely staff, always greet me with a warm smile. Have the Pret subscription and visit most days. Always take my own reusable cup and staff always remember just how I enjoy my coffee! Large, spacious shop with plenty of seating. The building itself is in need of a little TLC- leaks are apparent when there is heavy rain and toilets are often out of use. It’s a great shame that dogs will no longer be able to sit in from 1st April 2023."

"Very good Greek food in a cozy small restaurant (about 12 tables , located in a strip mall on Applegate Rd. After Taverna Ouzo closed its doors (coincidentally, it was located on the same Applegate Rd. quite a few years ago, there weren 't any authentic Greek restaurants in the area, so we are happy with our new finding. Faros (apparently, owned, managed, and served by people of Greek descent serves fully authentic and deliciously prepared Greek cuisine. The menu is extensive, there is a variety of choices for every taste and like. The food is fresh, the grilled dishes are thoroughly prepared to perfection. The hot appetizers platter Zesta pikilia tis pareas (assortment of tiropitakia, keftedakia, dolmadakia, spanakopitakia, and gigantes is ideal for two people and is offered for a budget friendly price of $20.5. The main courses, both traditional Greek specialties, souvlaki, and gyro platters are on the bigger side, definitely guaranteeing a need for box it up, please . The overall pricing is in today 's day and age certainly decent. Undoubtedly, highly recommended."

"Recently ordered from here, gentlemen that answered the phone was really polite and professional. He made sure to get our order 100% right. Pickup was quick and it came in a box which helped keep it all together. That’s where it ends, the food was absolutely horrendous, no seasoning, chicken was raw in parts and swimming in water, wasn’t mixed and tasted horrible. We took one bite and had to throw it away was a massive shame as the reviews and service were great. It was also my partners birthday which meant we had to cook late which completely ruined our evening."

The prices are very reasonable, and the staff is excellent—attentive, friendly, and engaging. It's a delightful spot for an authentic Indian dining experience. Regarding dietary needs, I am gluten-free, and I had no issues at all. Highly recommend for dinner!"

"During a trip to Earth High Time Dress with my sister, we booked a table for lunch at this restaurant. My daughter and I ordered the soup of the day with a sandwich, which turned out to be a delicious homemade cream of chicken soup. My daughter, who is usually picky, absolutely loved it. I even received the recipe from the cook to make it at home, which I have already tried. Unfortunately, the cakes were so good that they were sold out before we had a chance to try them. Overall, I highly recommend this bistro for its fresh and delicious food, as well as its friendly owners. Thank you for the great experience."

"The food is to a good standard and with the buffet option unlimited, we started with prawn crackers followed by the house sharing starter and the seafood sharing starter, both were presented on one platter and we liked it all. As with every course we were offered more but declined. On to the crispy duck, unlike so many establishments they do provide sufficient pancakes, nothing worse than running out of pancakes and having have the duck left. We moved on to the mains, we chose a mixture of items, chicken, beef, prawns and pork plus rice and noodles. The service was good throughout and excellent value for £27.50 per head. Earlier in the week it is only £24.50. The restaurant was packed out, which shows how well it is regarded."

"Back story I arrived at Aberdeen today feeling under the weather. I immediately went to buy chicken soup and tea. Then I took a nap to hopefully feel better for dinner. When I woke up I did my research and saw that this place had good reviews and the Wong ton soup looked good and since my throat was not feeling the best I decided to walk over and bring food back to my Airbnb. I walk in look at the menu then a waiter comes and asks what I need. I say I wanted food To go and he says to me very rudely.. No food to go, take out! I smiled and I said sorry, take out. I asked for the bbq short ribs, the Wong ton soup and a yellow chicken curry. Then he asked if I wanted rice with the curry.. and rudely said because you need a side of rice, you eat that with rice as if I was dumb and didn 't know. I smiled and said, Yes, rice please. He walked to the register, asked if it was going to be cash, I said no credit card and I paid. I went and sat at a table that was empty to wait. About 15 minutes later a waitress comes over with prawn chips. That I was actually thinking about getting but forgot. She says.. Here for you. I said, oh no I 'm not eating here I 'm waiting for my take out order. And she says... No is okay, here you eat while you wait. I was like ok, thank you. So I started eating them. About another 10 minutes passed by and the guy that took my order came with my food and screamed at me... These chips are not for you! while I literally had one in my mouth and he grabs the basket and screams at me to go. I told him, that the girl brought them and I said I was waiting for my food and she said to eat while I wanted and once again he screams at me.. No, just go! I almost threw the half eaten chip at his face. But I 'm not that rude like him. I am feeling horrible cause I am sick, you don 't need to treat me like I 'm dumb. I was going to write a review as I walked back to my Airbnb but decided to wait until I tried the food so I could give one also based on that and not just the service. So here it goes. Yello chicken curry flavorless Wonton soup actually really good Bbq pork ribs okay The only thing I did finish was the soup. I know for a fact I will never go back to that place if I visit Aberdeen again."

"Our recent dining experience at this restaurant was not the best. The food was average and lacked flavor. We had to repeatedly ask for cutlery, and the atmosphere was lacking as the place felt outdated and cold. The noise level was high, making it difficult to enjoy our meal. Unfortunately, our disappointment grew when we found a small fly in our water glass. Despite voicing our concerns to the staff, we were met with a negative and unhelpful attitude, with the front desk employee threatening to call the police when we expressed reluctance to pay the full bill. In the end, we paid over £60 for a meal we did not fully enjoy. We will not be returning to this restaurant."
