"Came with big family party for my birthday. Extremely disappointed, starters were ok but all came at different times, had to ask a waitress where one was as everyone else had finished theirs and she just looked absolutely clueless as to why we were talking to her. New waiter didn’t even know what dishes he was bringing out and looked at us to answer for him, fair enough he’s new but come on, train your staff the basics. Didn’t get free bottle of wine even though we ordered tapas. One blonde girl walking around just playing with her hair and we didn’t understand the point in her being there, she didn’t do a thing all night, she just looked like she’d got lost. We didn’t get asked if we wanted a drink the whole night, had to keep asking where our mains were, an hour and 45 minutes later they arrived and my ‘jerk’ chicken burger was so bad, the bread sopping wet and falling to bits and the chicken was just plain chicken breast with none of the **** cut off it and slightly seasoned. the ‘manager’ said this was cause the chef had put ‘loads of sauce on it’ but there was no sauce at all, bone dry chicken, didn’t put any spicy sauce in like I asked and when I requested it they brought me a squeezey bottle to do it myself. Cajun chips came plain and when we told them they just sprinkled some Cajun seasoning just on the top, meat was all fatty and sparse on the bbq combo dish, boneless chicken wings were just chicken tenders!!?? The ribs had no meat on at all literally just bone, curry was cold and plain with no flavour to it at all. Everything bang average, staff unbelievably immature, very badly trained with no customer service skills or communication skills. The managers response when we told him all this was ‘I can only apologise’ so we had to request for money to be knocked off our bill, which they did- fair enough but we had to really push for this. Feels like they hire very young staff and don’t bother training them. Honestly a very, very poor experience and would never go back or recommend to anyone. Don’t ignore the bad reviews they’re all very accurate. The only member of staff I appreciated tonight was the girl with the dark hair who first took our order, she was the only one with any customer service skill or any sense."

We enjoyed a delicious lunch of tapas at this restaurant. The portions were generous - we shared 5 dishes between the two of us and also received a complimentary bottle of house wine. The food was flavorful and very enjoyable.

We visited Sunday lunchtime for a family birthday. The food was absolutely delicious, we had a variety of meals from the BBQ Combo to some tapas. All of it was lovely and the young girl that served us was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

My husband and I went for lunch at this restaurant after being let down by another tapas spot. The food was amazing. We started with a generous portion of spicy olives, followed by six delicious tapas dishes. All of them were excellent! If you order five or more tapas, you get a free bottle of wine. The server was very helpful and efficient. We will definitely be coming back.

The staff and service was excellent. I had the chicken salad as a main, and was truely surprised by the amount of chicken. The dish came with a would chicken breast cut in half. The salad and dressing complimented the dish, though I think a little bit of avocado would have just finished it off. My partner had the coconut lime prawns as a starter, and although the prawns were tasty, they lacked any coconut. For desserts we had a baileys white chocolate cheesecake which was very tasty. I had the chocolate meltdown which was superb.

We booked a table because the reviews read well and the photos made the food look good, however, that’s where it ended. The staff were great, helpful and polite but the food was very disappointing and the restaurant was in need of a good clean (toilets in particular) and new plates as both ours were chipped. I ordered the meat combo of belly pork beef brisket, what came resembled a large slice of beef and a cut of Porchetta with tinned pit beans, my partner ordered Moroccan lamb which resembled a lamb casserole and was served moderately warm and the cherry bakewell cocktail certainly wasn’t made from scratch. We realised it wasn’t a proper American smoke house given the rapid arrival to the... View menu

The establishment was not particularly busy, so it was disappointing to have to wait a relatively long time for our drinks to be taken, our order was taken eventually and at no point did the waitress come and check on us, ask us if we wanted any more drinks. The food was amazing, which makes it even worse, as the chef and everyone behind the scenes making the great dishes to be let down by front of house. When the bill came, a disagreement ensued. My son ordered the kids cheeseburger, the waitress obviously assumed it was an adult meal, and then went on to argue with me. I’m sorry but don’t argue, talk back to the customer and make assumptions. She saw sense in the end and amended accordingl...

As someone who regularly contributes to Trip Advisor, I always strive to provide honest and fair reviews. My group of 6 adults has visited the Smokehouse venue multiple times and have always had a great experience with positive reviews. Unfortunately, our recent visit was quite disappointing. Although we were seated quickly, we were unfortunately placed next to a noisy table of about 16 people who were loud and disruptive. This added to the overall poor experience. The main reason for our visit was to enjoy their delicious Fillet steaks, but we were informed that they had run out. The only option left was the Ribeye steak, which was mediocre and had a lot of gristle and fat. The service was...

"Exploring the outskirts of Leeds led me to discover the gem that is Corarima, a gluten free, vegan haven in Wakefield. As someone currently navigating a gluten free journey, stumbling upon this Abyssinian vegan/gluten free restaurant was a true delight. Opting for the combination platter for two was a journey through a sensory layer cake a symphony of tastes and smells expertly presented. We embraced the experience, relishing the deliciousness with our hands, a practice met with the owner's delighted approval. The host, a charming and attentive soul, took us on a culinary tour, passionately detailing each dish. He was so warm, Friendly and attentive without being over bearing. The decor added to the warmth, creating a homely ambiance that made this dining experience extraordinary. In the realm of UK dining, Corarima has secured its spot among our favorites. It's more than a restaurant; it's a rare and complete experience, a testament to the charm and authenticity of Abyssinian cuisine. I wish we lived closer as we’d visit regularly for sure! Dietary restrictions: I’ve recently had to go gluten free whilst also being vegan so it was wonderful to relax knowing that the menu was accommodating of my dietary requirements Kid friendliness: Whilst we were dining a family arrived with a young baby and the host was so charming and attentive with the baby. Engaging with the baby as if it was any other diner (even offering to take his order)!"
