Exceeded expectations - rabbit pappardelle, cooked from the heart served in a small intimate space…read morewith real atmosphere. We were visiting Chester for two nights and knew in these Covid times we should book a place for supper. We Googled and consulted YELP and the Atina kitchen had as we now know excellent reviews and sounded interesting and personal. From the moment we walked in and Hannah came to our table our expectations were exceeded. The pappardelle rabbit pasta was a delight and the sauce we guess had been cooked for hours. We followed our simple but brilliant pasta with afogato a dish I have not seen on a menu for decades which had fantastic espresso and a scoop of raspberry ripple again not seen this on a menu for decades and vanilla ice cream. The staff were all very personable and the chef/owner we deduce not only still enjoys cooking but also runs a brilliant individual restaurant in a city of many choices. Go and visit and we think you will not be disappointed.

After only living in Chester for a few months, I´ve somehow walked past this place several times…read morewith much curiosity. It´s one of those places that you just can´t quite put your finger on. The decor is an eclectic mix of italian bits and bobs and their posters outside offer ¨theme nights¨ which is normally something that I steer clear from... But Atina is a place that came up time and time again on several internet searchs for a decent brunch in Chester. So with the reviews of many, and my love of breakfast in the afternoon, I gave Atina a go. This has been one of the best decisions I could have made as a new resident of Chester, because I now, have a new favourite restaurant. I opted for the French toast with maple syrup and bacon, my other half went for the full english with an extra portion of haggis and black pudding. They were both amazing, and I have to give a special shout out to the french toast in particular, which was so delicious that we went back the following week to eat it again. I also have to thank them for serving the french toast with back back bacon as it seems much more fashionable (and my personal opinion, much less delicious) to serve the crispy streaky bacon. My only possibly gripe is that there isn´t enough maple syrup given, and when I asked for extra there was an extra charge on the bill. The staff were great and very attentive but not overbearing, and even though the decor is not my personal taste, the outside courtroom at the back of the restaurant is a hidden gem of it´s own. Even if you´re just after a cuppa and a rest after a day of shopping, this courtyard offers a zen-like haven.

We had a really nice warm welcome with Raki. The Kleftiko was thoroughly authentic, excellent.read more

Mykonos is a greek restaurant near the train station…read more The owner of Mykonos, Dimitri, is the friendliest, happiest restaurant owner I have ever known. He gets really involved with the people who eat there. Whenever I have been there, he has made me get up and dance with him on a table at the front. After the dancing he gets everybody outside and lets us all smash a plate. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is the best I have ever experienced in a restaurant. I highly, highly reccommend this place to people of any age for birthday meals, anniversary meals, a fun night out with friends, anything! You will have fun, guaranteed!

A mini review (if you will) of this new hidden gem of a restaurant that quietly opened its doors…read morenot so long ago. Ti Amo might make you think it's an Italian restaurant but it's not really? Firstly there's a Tapas menu and a Turkish influence on the food (Turkish owner I was told) but the head Chef is Portugese? So I imagine some Portugese flavours seep into the mix at some stage. As we enter into the 16th year of the 21st century I presume innovation in foodie collaborations will lead to more places like this. Onto the food.. The tapas menu is nothing short of fantastic. The breads are baked fresh onsite and are delicious. The Filetitos (strips of lamb fillet I think?), Pan seared Scallops with clams and the Gamberoni Pilpil (prawns) are sensational choices from the tapas menu. I for one cannot wait to rattle out a full blown review upon my return when I'll no doubt goorge on the Beef Stroganoff which I hear is divine. So watch this space...
