A smart city centre location restaurant serving good Italian inspired food in smart and modern…read moresurroundings. I dined there today with a party of six and was initially impressed by the prompt attention paid by the front of house staff and the greeting they gave. The table was placed in the window and although it was a round table it seemed fairly obvious to me that it would be a bit of a struggle for room once we filled it up with drinks and dishes - and so it proved. I would have thought this was fairly obvious to staff as more items were brought across to us, but they never took the opportunity to remove the items surplus to requirements on there, meaning we were left to shuffle glasses and plates around. This small issue aside I am very positive about the overall experience I enjoyed. The choice of food was good and as they opened up many dishes to be taken as either a 'starter' or 'main' portion it meant there was a wide choice of dishes to try. Starters were in the region of £5 and mains were generally around the £10 mark, slightly more if you went for the steak or fish dishes. The furnishings were smart and it was pleasing atmosphere to sit in and enjoy a good well cooked meal with friends and family.

La Grenouille is a little gem of a restaurant. Little being the operative word. There are only 6 of…read more7 tables and it is extremely intimate. I was lucky enough to be taken here for Valentine's Day a few years ago and it was one of the best meals I've ever had. The food is French, with a few English twists, and there is a fairly extensive wine list (for such a small establishment). Despite the intimacy of the setting the service is unobtrusive and extremely efficient. The only minor point is that I was aware that everyone could hear what everyone else was saying. Not ideal but the food more than made up for it.

After 1 hour of tennis at half past 3 my family and I went to a restaurant that was worth…read moreremembering. This restaurant was Carluccio's, the reason my family and I went to this restaurant was because we went to one in Nottingham and we loved it, today when we arrived we were greeted by a man who was very cheerful and escorted us to our table as we had booked the day before and he said "You wouldn't wanted to have been here one hour earlier it was packed full of people!". So when we ordered we had a game of cards and then about 5 - 7 minutes our starters arrived I chose garlic bread as I knew my main course would fill me up, when my main course arrived I was amazed how big it was and was glad I ordered garlic bread, the main course I ordered was chicken Milanese and I was astounded how well cooked it was along with some pasta as I dislike tomatoes. I didn't have dessert as I was full from my main course. Great restaurant brilliant staff, good car parking across the street, 5 stars

5th visit to this restaurant this time for Sunday lunch. Food and service generally pretty good but…read morea few issues. Appetizers were good and they allowed two of us to split a carbonara as an appetizer...nice service. Unfortunately, and for the 3rd time, they had "run out" of swordfish despite accepting my order. The alternative offered was OK (turbot) but over breaded...I tasted more coating than fish which was supposed to be the main element. The others in my party had Chicken Milanese which was very good. But then they'd run out of coffee ice cream (fresh stuff fine but ice cream?) They clearly have cut inventory to the minimum so be prepared for missing items. Finally, and this is somewhat picky, they took a true classic, Canolis, and ruined them by trying to be fancy and just coming off as pretentious. Canolis do not ever need chocolate in the pastry or weird candied fruit; they are a simple delectable treat...these were well cooked but ruined. Overall a decent place but I've had better.

The word 'mediocre' springs to mind whenever I drive past. Pizza, lasagne, pasta, salads and all the Italian extras. I think it would go up in my estimations if it wasn't for the fact that it's surrounded by pizza places and fast food takeaways. If I go out for a meal, I don't want to be walking back to the car past drunken kids with bottles of White Lightning in their hands trying to blag their way onto the bus home for free. For me, that puts a downer on the whole evening and if the meal wasn't anything special, it's not worth the worry over whether you might get knifed or not.
