One of our favourite places to eat in Southsea. Reasonably priced and consistently good food. Decor 70s style could do with updating

Located near to the pier in Brighton (on the main road) there is this amazing diner that does a…read moregreat selection of America: - Breakfast - Lunch - Dinner The food is reasonably priced and you get more than enough for your buck (ok pound). We had breakfast there and it def set you up for the day so if you go to Brighton go and have breakfast it won't disappoint

The ambiance has a 1950's vibe with 50's era decor, music by Elvis and Tom Jones to name two, a…read morecool motorcycle display when you walk in, and Tom & Jerry cartoons playing in the background. A fun place for families. Food was delicious. My husband had the Steak & Fries I had the caramelized onion Burger, which I believe the cook brought right out to us. The fries were nice and hot. The steak was cooked perfectly my burger could have been cooked a bit longer to prevent so much of the meat juices from dripping. The waitstaff could be more inviting when you come into the restaurant. The first attempt to eat here the waitress apologized and said it would be a 40 minute wait as a trove of people arrived between 5 - 5:30 pm when we arrived. We told her we'd come back another time. Two days later we arrived around 4:30 ish, and the young lady from way behind the counter, without saying hello or welcome, pointed us to a table. Our assigned waitress was pleasant but we had to flag her down twice for more beverages, it wasn't really busy yet and three wait staff were talking amongst each other. In any case if you don't mind this type behavior this place will suit you, but if you're a large group it may be somewhat challenging to be waited on with a professional attitude. We stayed a week in lovely Brighton and the restaurant was across the street but we didn't bother trying this place for a third time.

Red Dog Saloon - Delicious onion rings!

My husband looked up where to get the best burgers in Southampton and the Red Dog Saloon came up…read more We decided to give it a try on a Friday night and we concur with the other reviewers! It was kind of late when we got there and there were only a few other tables dining. Our server, Lewis, greeted us immediately and took our drink orders. They had a full bar; but we both decided on a nice cold beer. The drinks came out quickly and we put in our food orders for a couple of burgers and some onion rings to share. I had the regular cheeseburger and it was definitely the best burger I've had in months! It was juicy with fresh toppings and a tasty bun. My husband had the Doomsday burger because he likes spicy food. He said it was delicious too, and had just the right amount of jalapeño and habanero peppers. We both devoured the onion rings which were equally delectable! The prices were also great at £12-14.50 for burgers and £7.50 for the onion rings. Lewis was a very friendly and personable server. He asked where we were from and told us about places he's hoping to visit in the U.S. He also gave us some information on his native Portugal. He is definitely an asset to the Red Dog Saloon, and he made our visit even more enjoyable!

Walked in the rain to 3 pubs to try to eat dinner on a rainy Sunday afternoon. The pubs weren't…read moreserving meals without reservations, so we ended up walking to this restaurant in a small mall.

WOW, this place is delicious!…read more Our family stopped in London for the last part of our cruise. After touring St. Paul's Cathedral, we were pretty hungry. We found The Fat Bear via Yelp!, and decided to give it a try. There were so many things on the menu that looked really good, but I had been craving chicken and waffles. The waffles were crisp on the outside, and fluffy on the inside -- the chicken, cooked perfectly, too. The syrup they serve it with is incredible. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you are in London! Carson C. Visalia, California

I felt a bit like a genius because I was choosing a place for several friends to meet up and we all…read morewanted different things. I wanted something with at least one good veggie option, they wanted something with meat, and it had to be somewhere in-between Camden and Canary Wharf, not too pricey, and ideally close to the city because otherwise our Italian friend probably wouldn't make it. And lo and behold.... THE FAT BEAR!!! It was all we wanted and more! This place is sort of tucked away and up some stairs above a pub. It's really just a room and a half, which makes it super cozy and they have a pretty awesome looking bar. It's got warm lighting which makes the atmosphere really nice. Their cocktails were delightful and the service was excellent. I will make a very strange observation that someone working there had a very drunk friend who just sort of made herself at home. Then more joined and it turned into me watching this table of really really drunk people trying to order food. Two of them ended up just falling asleep. It was super strange. Anyway, me being distracted aside, I really loved the cocktail I ordered- Sloe Boat To China, and everyone else seemed happy with theirs. I was dying to try the pimiento cheese starter and the fried pickles. The cheese was particularly sharp and delicious. The pickles were good, but quite skinny (I mean come on, you're in an American restaurant I was expecting some serious pickles). The vegan gumbo was super spicy and delicious. I was impressed and enjoyed it. My husband dropped the ball and ordered the regular jambalaya (with sausage) rather than the seafood one which broke my heart a little bit, because I really wanted to try it. You know, I guess that means we'll just have to come back. Oh also another bonus, this place has brisket which is really hard to find. I can't say how it tastes but my friend said he defo approves (am I becoming more British with these words, or just more annoying?) Anyway, to finish it off I had the oreo cheesecake which the bomb. I love oreos. And it tasted like oreo. So all was right with the world. A wonderful place to come if you have people who want to try American food, or if you have out of town Americans who are too scared to try other food, or if you have hungry friends that want to try cajun food, or if you just want to try some really yummy food.
