"Hats off to the management and staff of Cantinetta for truly earning this one-star review from me. It was a team effort that I felt deserved recognition. We had guests from out of town and it was up to us to pick a restaurant that showcased the best of Crosby (according to Google reviews). We were a party of 10 who had reserved a table for Saturday evening with plenty of time to prepare and even pre-order if needed. Upon arrival, we were seated and given the drink menu. Unfortunately, the staff took 40 minutes before taking our drink orders, despite reminders. They seemed to make excuses rather than fulfill their duties. We should have probably left at that point, but we stayed. The food that was eventually served was inedible, particularly the Bruschettas which were popular choices for starters. There were delays in serving the main dishes as well, with some younger guests jokingly starting to eat the table. Thankfully, the main meals were of decent quality once served, but the service lacked any apologies or acknowledgment of our dissatisfaction. When we spoke to the manager about our experience, he seemed indifferent. This lack of care or apologies for a subpar experience on their part is the reason for this one-star review. Everyone has an off night, but the indifference to customer satisfaction shown by Cantinetta was truly remarkable.Service: Dine inMeal type: DinnerPrice per person: £30-40Food: 2Service: 1Atmosphere: 2"

"I'm not sure about the negative reviews that had hunted this wonderful food!? now I went in to arrange my jubilee and there was a slight error in the order of my original command, but it was 't serious how they executed the other so perfectly and even go beyond my request, which was so fantastic. Sometimes people went into a place with rave expectations then it judges not by what it is and what it has to offer, but against their own perceptions or worse fantasies! I think that's so unfair to the business. we really went with only one expectation that it will serve us good cocks, and they know what? it has all the points we had in the eye (open opinion, that is). the night was unforgettablely lovely! the room is airy and spacious, which is eating, which must be so fresh, as delish must taste, how beautiful it has to make sure how reasonable price has to offer and as a filling must be part intended! not a bit that my fluffy Italian husband could find a complaining! I had to push over the cocktails, the warm and friendly staff and the art of the decorations! I could have gone on and on as if it were my dissertation. it is so good and so we love this place. seriously if they are abandoned by prejudice, idiotic or grudging comments. do not hang them, experience it yourself, please! a thing that I must warn, although the price and the menu online is different from the home menu, they are much exciting and reasonable! they promised to check this question as soon as I have informed them the differences. give this beautiful seafood place an attempt and if they go with an expectation, they will let it expect from a good crumb bowl, then they will 't be disappointed safe!"

"This was part of our bed and breakfast of the Park Central hotel, to which I 've written a separate review. But I have to start by saying, I have no idea why it is attached to that hotel. I 4 star rated that hotel, and 2 star this, and even that I was being generous! the dinner on our first night started off very nice. We were seated quickly, drinks came relatively fast. As with all offers there is a separate set menu, we optioned to pay extra for the main menu as I wanted some good sea food! We started with oysters which where lovely, this and one factor at breakfast, gave it that second star, other wise it would have been a one star! Ordering off the main menu my husbands sea bass was quite nice as I had a little taste, my hake on a bed of risotto was awful!!! And I say awful because it was, the hake tasted like hake, no flavour or anything to recommend it by, the risotto was just terrible! I 'm not sure if the chef had just discovered saffron, but it was overpowering and just the worse!!! I filled up on the maybe 3 x 3 inch piece of Fish and veg and my husbands side salad! I could not bring myself to eat it, I 'm not a lets be polite and suck it up kind of diner I 'm a, I want good food, this is what I paid for kind of diner!! to add insult to injury, the waitress asks how our meal was, my husband raved about his sea bass, I went on to say my meal was not adequate, she went on to LOOK at me like I smeared it on my face, no apology, no replacement, not even an acknowledgement of the fact the meal was awful!! Wanna hear the SECOND insult to double injury?? I went to use their ladies facilities and saw a board with their specials! I would have easily opted for one of those, but was not given the opportunity or told about it! Unfortunate the picture I took of the specials board was burry due to maybe anger or frustration, or after a bottle of Prosecco just couldn 't hold the camera straight!! It took a while for our bill to come, and by this time I am already fuming at my first night here ruined by a horrid meal!! I kept getting louder to get a server to bring up our bill, and again I mentioned I was not happy with the meal, again to be TOTALLY ignored! If I was paying for the whole meal I would have complained to the manager, but as we only paid for the alcohol, oysters and balance of the meal, I let sleeping dogs lie as everyone else seemed to be having a good time in the restaurant! I did not want to be that guy . Now....breakfast!! I thought, surely they cannot screw this up!! Time for them to redeem themselves!!! Ohh how wrong I was! Instant coffee, awful! I was told there was a pot of filter coffee, it was just as bad, and horribly watered down! My husband said his tea was FISHY!! What the actuations heck?!?! Do you guys wash the water urn with the same spong as the fish board!?!?! That is disgusting!!! Two english breakfasts ordered, I had scrabbled eggs (the ONLY redeeming point at breakfast!! my husband had fried and awfully under cooked! No one wants runny eggs! The mushrooms clearly batched cooked, tomato, halved and lightly fired I hope you like partially raw tomato! Bacon, very generic, beans were beans, what else can you say? Maybe add some spices, a condiment or two?!?! I ended up eating my scrabbled eggs and bacon, but desperate to get some vegetables in my ate my mushrooms and beans under protest! And ended up filling up on pots of yoghurt! My husband spotted flies on the pasties on the open buffet where the tea urn was, so we stayed away from that! I know its a fish restaurant and flies are expected, doesn 't mean I want them doing the Charlston across my croissant!! Morning two, I opened for an omelette as that is crack some eggs and add the bits, I wish I took a pic as it was hilarious!! It looked like a egg pancake with bacon bits and mushrooms!!! Good heavens! Once again I filled on yohgurt and toast, which was freshly made thank goodness! I noticed there was specialist coffee available, lattes, mochacinno etc, I ordered two to get told those cost extra!!! OMG! What kind of Mickey Mouse, back garden, off the books kind of eatery you guys running here?!?! For Petes sake! Would I recommend this place, NO! Would I eat there if it was free? Clearly as I had no choice and was part of my stay, but if they offered me compensation for the poor service in the form of a free meal, I 'd say NO!!"

"I should have realised when I saw that only one table inside was occupied yesterday evening and 2 separate tables outside with 2 at each that only ordered beer. Outside on the top ine of a menu placard was 'stuffed vine leaves '. I like dolmades (as known) so ordered them for takeaway asking for then NOT TO BE HEATED as usually served cool.. One would have expected them to fresh and readily available as a special.2nd mistake. 20 minutes later still the one only table which had drinks only, I was handed a bag with a sealed polystyrene carton and exuding heat. 20 mins later after walking home there was still heat and same when I opened the carton. It was blatantly obvious they had been microwaved from the freezer. and NOT FRESH. in the carton were, golf bell sized rounds and a hard dark brown outer with dark dry stale rice and a hefty addition of middle eastern spices. Inedible and disgusting. Not fit for consumption. There was only the one person working and he was wearing a stained grubby T shirt. He needs to check a recipe for genuine Dolmades. They should be wrapped in FRESH green vine leaves with a herb (mint or similar) fresh rice and rolled into sausage shapes rolls and boiled until TENDER not solid, dark brown dried out vine leaves (if that was they were, though impossible to tell. This establishment needs a visit from an inspector to check the kitchen, its contents and hygiene.. r"
