"We ate here this evening whilst staying in the hotel. When we went to book a table in the restaurant (they don’t take walk-ins even for hotel guests) we were informed that there were no tables for another two hours. As we are frequent travellers and had only booked the hotel a few hours earlier I decided to book, what a mistake I made; even during the process of creating the booking the gentleman walked away to fix a card machine for a colleague. With a one year old baby this was less than ideal but we happily went back at 8pm. We were then made to stand in a queue for another 10 minutes before we were seated. They had forgotten the requested highchair so we reminded the gentleman and he said he’d go and get it. Another 20 minutes later our very helpful waitress arrived to take our drinks order and apologised profusely when we pointed out the missing highchair. Generally the service across the restaurant was poor with a clear lack of management or communication. I’d assume something went really wrong with their service this evening as I don’t remember seeing such poor service for many years. The food was ok when it arrived and the waitress seemed to work hard to make up for the problems we had seen early on. Overall service was 1/5 but through no fault of our hard working waitress. Food quality 3/5 average for a Doubletree. Value for money 1/5 they were charging £32.95 for a steak and £4.50 for a Coke! Almost tourist trap prices, and that’s from somebody who stays in Hilton brand properties several times per month. I’ll review the hotel separately upon checkout and I’ll update Flyertalk also but the poor F&B service has unfortunately let the whole hotel down."

"I never write reviews for restaurants, but after our meal last night I felt compelled to write one for this beautiful little place! I and my friend heard of this place by some of his work friends (clear the word is widespread!, and we decided to go there. they can bring their own weeping that was really beautiful! it is really a tiny place, but filled with so much atmosphere - there was a man who played the piano in the corner. the waitress was beautiful and explained to us the menu - there were 3 appetizers, 3 nets and various puddings. we chose a pasta and a garnel, along with an avocado mozarella and tomatensalat. neither court could I blame, both were so tasty! for the net we had seabread, and a chicken dish - both with sweet again, so delicious. what the whole experience is made beautiful that they can see reno cooking her eating, as the kitchen is quite open to you to see. everything was made fresh and was really interesting to watch. we were too full for pudding, but reno sent us about some small sweet pieces of wafer and creamy ricotta- we were told what they were called but I can't remember now! but they were beautiful and exactly what we needed when none of us could have ended a whole desert. a beautiful little touch. we then sat comfortably and ended our wein, we didn't feel hurryed or a necessity to finish. reno came over the chat to us, and they can see that he is really thrilled and loves what he does. At the end of the evening, someone started from another group of people to play and sing. reno entered, and turns out that he is a dab hand, not only cook, but also sing. if they want to eat amazing, a personal note and something else, please give this place one away. reno told us that they will soon open the cellar to care for more people - clear, the word spreads over this place, and we will certainly also spread the word. x"
