We arrived early for dinner, around 6, and a reservation didn't seem necessary. Service was very friendly and professional and although new they seemed to have it down. I had a steak for my entree and my dining companion had fish. We were both quite pleased with our choices. The only glitch, probably my fault, was ordering a gin martini before dinner. That seemed to throw them for a loop! Apparently that isn't common, like a gin and tonic. But they pulled it together and after some discussion asked if I wanted it "dry" "dirty" "olives" etc.? In the end I should have ordered a gin and tonic as the martini was not that good. I do recommend this place, however, as the food and atmosphere is quite good. I hope they succeed.

Who would've known that such an excellent restaurant was on the top floor of Cardiff and Vale…read moreCollege? My husband and I came here for a meal on a Saturday night, booking in advance and we both really enjoyed ourselves! BACKGROUND: The Classroom is led by a very experienced head chef and they train those studying culinary and hospitality at Cardiff and Vale College to help students get valuable work experience, which I'm happy to support! They also hold occasional cookery classes for the general public that you can book. All in all, the idea behind this restaurant is excellent! ATMOSPHERE: As its on the top floor (floor 5) of the Cardiff and Vale College building, the atmosphere is great. Open kitchen for you to see inside as the chefs prepare along with large glass windows for excellent views. The chairs are comfortable and it really models modern European fine dining! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! The waiting staff manager has worked in a Michelin starred restaurant before so he definitely knows his hospitality. We were greeted promptly with our coats taken and never had to flag down anyone for attention. Our meals arrived quickly as well and it was an extremely efficient service! FOOD: The food here at The Classroom is on a seasonal menu, so if you visit you probably won't be having the same stuff as me, but everything I had was delicious! ~ Starter: Smoked Haddock & Shellfish Chowder with Parsley Oil (£6.95) An excellent start to the meal. I love Smoked Haddock and this chowder had excellent flavours and tasted like the sea. There was a generous amount of haddock as well which I was pleased about and the parsley made for a well balanced finish. ~ Main: Glazed Jacobs Ladder, potato terrine, carrot purée, roasted white asparagus and Italian peas, crispy silver skin onions, red wine jus (£19.95) Really good! The beef was cooked perfectly and was extremely tender and fell off the bone. The carrot puree was extremely creamy and delicious and the onions packed a flavourful punch. My only complaint about this dish is I felt it could have done with a tad extra seasoning as the jus was a little bland but there was salt at the table so it was an easy fix. ~ Dessert: Stuffed baked apple, spiced mascarpone mousse (£5.95) The baked apple was stuffed with what I think was minced meat, and baked with a caramelised outside. Very delicious and the spices they used were fantastic! I especially loved the mascarpone mousse as I'm a huge fan of mascarpone. --- Overall, I would definitely recommend The Classroom to anyone. The prices aren't completely out of this world for a special occasion and my husband and I both loved what we had. I will definitely be back in the Summer to see what their Summer menu would bring!

Game-Changer! In a…read morefamily of foodies, whenever a food experience is truly spectacular, my father always quotes his Kentuckian Uncle when replying to "How is it?" - "It tastes like more" would be the reply. A broad smile - leading to a chuckle, every dish this evening at Heaneys "tastes like more." Service has been attentive, agile, warm, and accommodating. Chef "Tommy" has a different piece of music playing my head with each inventive dish - and yet despite the clear sophistication of his training - nothing about the place is fussy. I'm on vacation visiting Cardiff for the first time - had no idea I had to come to Wales for one of the most felicitous culinary explorations of my life. Even if the description of some dishes desn't excite initially - let Chef take you on a journey (definitely pick the tasting menu £42.5) trust him, his team knows what they're doing. Cheers! (Ps. Huge thanks to Oliver and his mates on the wait-staff for making my evening so special!)

The dishes were all interesting and beautifully presented. My only request would be a bit more time between courses. They come quickly. Our server was pleasant and friendly, and she remained so even after the restaurant became busy. She was working hard, but always remained kind and helpful. The restaurant is casual, but also upscale. We are visitors to Cardiff. Heaney's could be a successful restaurant in California Wine County. It has the same rustic chic vibe. My only request would be different "music." The thumping house music felt out of step with the food and became tiresome. Overall, I would recommend Heaney's to anyone who enjoys the adventure of a tasting menu. It was well worth the visit.
