Reviews in Bristol and Somerset

The Windsor castle rules great food great staff great ambience really low prices best value in Weston for the size of the meal..

Fabulous! As always......

We have eaten twice at the Lockside, once for dinner and again for breakfast. Very deceptive from the outside as it looks pretty average, however on entering the Lockside we were quite literally taken aback as it is very contemporary in style with a wonderful ambience. Made to feel very welcome by the owners and the menu was very varied and food delicious, especially the hot chocolate brownie. Have recommended to friends and they have not been disappointed.

Excellent Chinese food here, the best for miles around. Do expect to have to book on a weekend night. Expect a long wait for takeaway on a weekend too, even if you ring your order through, they will still only cook it once you have been into the pick up area. Can be very frustrating when you have ordered for a set time and then find that someone who comes in and orders there and then gets their food before you. Worth the wait though if you have the time.

the shield is back

Walked off Grand Parade Bath into the atmosphere of Istanbul very authentic. Excellent lamb dishes,very good service complimentary to start nibbles and finish with fresh fruit and liquor on the house. Friday evening 22nd June 2007

We really enjoyed The Willow Tree. The food was excellent and the prices were reasonable for the ambiance and the quality of the food, but not a cheap night out. Great if you want some thing a bit more varied and special. The atmosphere can be a bit stuffy & a bit too formal, but we'd definitely go back for a birthday/anniversary or celebration.

We went here expecting probably too much because of the appearance of the restaurant. The restaurant looks fabulous, very gastro pub. But the food was sadly uninteresting. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing memorable. Nice wine. Staff okay. We might give it one more try in the future and avoid a Saturday night.

Hathaways is a charming cottage restaurant with wonderful atmosphere and excellent food. I recommend fish dishes with a bottle of lovely wine. The selection of wines is amazing. The presentation of food is really impressive! It is defintelly a place to visit in Dunster!

booked the restaurant for my wifes 40th birthday,the food,the service and my wifes face was something to savour.we all had a fantastic time Im sure all my family and friends will return sooner rather than later.

The meal I had a San Carlo was simply outstanding, first class food. The decor and general feel of the place really sets the scene. Its nice to discover an authentic sheek Italian in Bristol. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed a rare night out and chose San Carlo on a friends recommendation. I will definitely be going there again.

This place has now changed hands and is called Neeshad Baltihouse Excellent Achari Chicken Tikka Chutu Chutu ! Excellent Chicken Tikka Dhansak Chutu Chutu ! Excellent Chicken Tikka Main ! Excellent Tarka Dhaal !!! Really friendly staff... They have a BYO policy with no corkage charges and have 2 off-licences next door - which significantly reduces the cost of our night out. Tends to get busy at the weekend so worth booking/phoning ahead They accept credit card payments if paying at the Restaurant

I disagree with other recommendations as i found the Nelson Arms to be a lovely pub. The Carvery was a very reasonable price and you get alot on the plate! Inside the tables and decor is very cosy and modern.There is a lovely outside area with benches too. The menu was very varied and the staff were very friendly and helpful to me and my family. Best Carvery in the West.

Excellent we travel from the North West of England twice a Year to have the best carvery we have found. Thank you it is super.

We first went to La Grotta may years ago as a young couple, and had a lovely meal. Then we went back when our first child was just 6 months . . . and the very friendly waiter held her while we ate. It was the FIRST break we'd had since she arrived. We've been aboard for 2 years, and return home next week. Our first stop in Bristol will be . . . La Grotta!

The best restaurant in Weston, without doubt. The toilets are outstandingly clean which is a good indicator of their level of hygiene and kitchen. Very friendly staff. Good on street parking. JC

I've been using this restaurant for years and consider all of the staff to now be friends. The food is consistently good with top quality produce. The staff are friendly and helpful. You will have a job to better the place for value. The surroundings are OK with separate cubicles but better than the canteen style of some (more expensive) types. Recommended with confidence. Raj is the main man.

The food here is great, we lived in Bristol - too near the Saffron(!!) and used to go here frequently. We now live in Cardiff and still it is the best Indian Restaurant we have been to. We travel 80 miles round trip to go here - and yes it is worth it!!!!
