The restaurant has a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere and serves up an American-style BBQ menu. Portion sizes are big and the quality of the meat is never in doubt. On this visit I discovered their chicken wings, which have to be the best chicken wings I've had in the UK, and I'm struggling to remember any wings sampled in the U.S. that would beat them! The secret is definitely in the coating - I'm just gutted I didn't discover them sooner! Their southern fried chicken burger is my favourite burger from here, however unfortunately on this occasion they served it with blue cheese on top rather than the regular cheese I asked for. No problem though, they were more than happy to make a fresh burger which was just as delicious as always. The Surf, Bird & Turf Combo and BBQ Ribs are also great choices. My biggest plus about this place though is their fries; the best fries I've ever eaten. Consistently awesome on every visit, beautifully crispy and well-seasoned. Big 5 stars from me as I've had 5 fantastic meals here, and they have Brahma on tap which is a bonus.

From the décor to the menu to the…read moremusic, everything about it gets a solid thumbs up from me, but the biggest commendation of all has to be the food itself. Out of all the times I've been to this lovable chain, I've never once had a bad meal. In fact, the food has been so good, the ride home afterwards normally consists of me reminiscing fondly at the delicious meal I'd eaten only ten minutes before. This particular restaurant has many perks, but its main bonus feature is its location. Situated opposite the bowling alley and just a brisk walk away from the cinema, Frankie & Benny's is in a superb spot for a full night out of activities. The restaurant is a great way to start or end an evening out, if you plan on watching a film or going bowling and the massive car park means you shouldn't have to spend too long traipsing around for a space.

He did it! If 6 stars were awarded for a sports bar, this one would get all of them.

Pulled pork was a new addition and we ordered a Chicago pulled pork burger and a mushroom Swiss burger. Burgers start at £8.95 and include salad, fries and slaw.

Everything was homemade (except the frozen chips which I can forgive as they were straight out of the fryer and crisp). Not gourmet burgers but very good and great vfm; with a Bottle of Kaliber and a chocolate icecream shake it came to £23. From pulling in to pulling out, we spent 45 minutes here. What's not to like?

After some browsing for a few blocks, we came across Firehouse Rotisserie and decided to give it a try! First off, the restaurant is in a very beautiful, charming, old building.

It was soooo flavorful, tender, and juicy! Seriously! And it was a very filling and hearty meal that fueled our further sightseeing for the day. Service was quick and friendly as well. I highly recommend stopping by and trying the rotisserie chicken!

My sister and I are a bit picky, but I'd had this spot marked for months in preparation for our trip to Bath as one of the few restaurants that had something we'd both eat, and boy did it turn out. We split the margarita pizza and a side of asparagus, which the chef ran all the way upstairs to make sure they had, -- it was so good. Possibly the best asparagus I've ever had, and we were stoked to get some veggies with dinner. The pizza crust was perfectly thin and crispy, but thick enough at the end to really sink your teeth into. Fresh basil and expertly roasted tomatoes (absolutely bursting with flavor) made for an off the charts margarita. It's hard to go wrong here but, this one really knocked it out of the park. Seating was quick, though we were on the earlier side, with water pitcher all to ourselves, which we love to get, and very clean well kept restrooms! -- though not very accessible, you must climb four flights of stairs. Try Mr. B's Emporium of Reading Delights if you have time before or afterwards, which is a beautiful and well stocked bookstore right across the street. Definitely stop by if you're in town, this one was a win! (Try the chocolate ice cream).

As a former waitress I get probably a little too personally offended by bad service, and this place makes me feel all sorts of insulted... So many cardinal sins of service are committed here! I could rant for hours about my visit today but I'll just say this - for an early morning breakfast, on a quiet day, you can't go wrong! The brioche French toast is lovely and worth putting up with the slow, poor, service. The restaurant can't seem to handle much more than an early morning breakfast and an empty restaurant though and I will never go back again for lunch or dinner!

I was looking for different and unusual places to try in Cardiff since l come here on business…read morequite often, since having worked in America and lived in New York in my younger days I was quite looking forward to trying shake shack as they do have one In New York. Atmosphere. This is a purpose build place in a shopping centre where everything looks new and fresh, but still l think this place lacks in any or much character. First impressions. Two of us came here one evening just to try this place and was met by a very unhappy male member of staff who looked rather like shaggy from Scooby doo. He handed us a menu, if l was a potential customer walking past l wouldn't have bothered going in as all staff looked miserable & depressed. This is still quite a new place and the restaurant area looked rather empty but still that didn't put us off. I saw on their menu that they served ice cream floats so l ordered two root beer ice cream floats. Around fifteen minutes had passed and was told that they didn't even have root beer. Overall not a well run place too many dizzy staff that fail to communicate with exact other.

They sell burgers and wings etc and I love that you get kitchen roll on the table. They get 3 stars because I feel they need to work on their food a bit. When I sat down I got a doors and was given some complimentary popcorn. They have blue moon on draft as well as the doors and some other American beers in bottles. The menu is your typical American style restaurant, burgers, Philly cheese steaks, hot dogs, fries and chicken wings. I opted for the Philly cheese steak and some fries. This is where it goes wrong a bit, the bread was cheap cheap cheap, really fluffy and over dry and breaking up, I'd go so far as to say it may have been day old bread.... The steak was tough and overlooked but the flavour itself was quite nice. The chips were good and I was given a bit pit of Mayo. My waitress was a wee star, I just thought she was brilliant at her job and she gave brilliant customer service and she's the reason for 3 rather than 2 stars, I would have given 4 but I want to give them something to work towards, as the food must be as good as the customer service. I would return again but would have no hesitation sending back if I had the same bread issues again. They should really think of getting a local baker to produce their bread rather than buying bulk from the catering supplier.
