Very disappointing experience. We only ordered a main course (and some garlic bread to nibble on) as we were off to see a concert in Symphony Hall. We were seated by 18:30 and placed our order. Our garlic bread arrived at the table next to us (who hadn't even ordered yet). When our neighbours ordered their food it arrived promptly. By 19:20 - we still had no food and no-one appeared to have noticed. As we had to be at Symphony Hall by 19:30 we had to leave. Hungry and having consumed a bottle of wine which only added to our hunger. When we actually stopped someone to express our dissatisfaction and to advise we would pay for the wine but had to go, there was no apology or empathy and he simply walked off to get the bill. Needless to say we didn't wait for that, we left the money on the table and walked. Considering that when we arrived the restaurant was not exactly busy (which is why we chose it) I dread to think how they will cope on a busy evening ! There was nobody actually managing the service and we were just left unattended. Being so hungry actually ruined my evening and whilst I loved the concert I was left feeling light-headed. Thanks for ruining my night Cafe Rouge. Would never go back there and would always recommend to my friends not to go there. I have never been left without a meal EVER - ANYWHERE !!

it's about time we had a decent coffee shop round here, i work at allsopps, round the corner but only tried it because it was recommended by Sugarvine and it's nice to have a large selection of not only coffee but organic sandwiches. well done guys

Love this place have been several times and love the food here the food always tastes fresh and the fact that you cane take your own wine makes this place the best!!! well done Carlos

I was keen to write this recommendation, after visiting this shop. I live about 3 miles away, and I am a regular at Dad's Lane Chippy. However, upon my 'detour', I discovered this little food heaven. The chips were delicious, well worth the short wait for fresh chips. I also enjoyed the chicken kebab I ordered. It was delicious. I shall be back soon, if not for the chips, then for the really nice two gentlemen working there, as they were so polite, keep up the good work lads!

i went to the chip shop , which my friend from America had recommended, and i was shocked! the food was excellent, well above the standards of most, the staff was really happy to serve and even had time to chat to me. the shop is immaculate and clean, and the price was great too. i really hope success comes to this pace for many many years- well, they can count on my custom from now on !!!

Mediocre service, ignorant manager. Rather quality of food, on a par with (some) motorway service stations. One to avoid. Very lax

I went to this chip shop by accident I did not know it was open. The chips were lovely and it was definitely the best ever fish I have tasted. The staff were all friendly and eager and keen to receive feedback. I would definitely recommend this chip shop it is now my favourite.

The food was absolutely disgraceful. I found a hair in my soup, which was also cold. When complaining, the manageress was rude and obnoxious. Not only were we standing around waiting for 40 minutes regardless of my wife's back problems but when finally seated it took a further hour before our starters came. After the starters FINALLY arrived, the main courses were shocking, to say the least. Vegetables were practically rotting on the plate and the potatoes were dry. Related to this, the plates were filthy which was very off putting. However, the puddings were lovely and the waiting staff were excellent and very apologetic. i recommend you go somewhere else to avoid the disappointment and devastation we experienced. SORT YOUR PUB OUT.

Not what it used to be before renovation. Such a shame.

A superb Italian restaurant serving authentic Italian Food. Great to see an Italian chef in the kitchen. Well worth a visit if you like good food. Service is excellent, nothing is too much trouble. AAAAA+

i love the curries at B26.. The staff are great you've gotta try it! fat gav

We have just moved to the area and go to the Meadow Lark at the weekends the food is great and a great place to bring children. Also there are great deals on and good entertainment on a Saturday.

We frequently dine at San Carlo on Temple Street and have never had a bad thing to say about the restaurant. The service is always brilliant, the restaurant is immaculately presented and very clean and the food is delicious. I happily recommend San Carlo for any occasion - to my work colleagues who are taking clients out for lunch, to my friends and family who want to go somewhere special and with great food, or to random people on the Internet on these listing sites. Fabulous restaurant in a great city centre location!

My partner and I have been to the Jilabi many times and have always enjoyed an excellent meal, reasonably priced in a comfortable restaurant with very attentive staff. It is for this reason that they are holding our wedding breakfast this Saturday.

Henry Wongs is definitely a refined Cantonese restaurant with a difference, from traditional Cantonese dishes to Cantonese dishes with twists of personal adaptation by the chef the food does not fail to deliver. The classy decor and attentive staff make eating out relaxing and enjoyable. I will definitely be You wont be left disappointed.

the food is amazing here .the people are so friendly and helpful and the delivery time is brill.

Absolutely brilliant and better than what we had expected! Not in the busiest area of the street so hadn’t noticed it until it the recent refurb of the restaurant from the outside - looks great. The staff were very attentive and pleasant, and the food fantastic, best king prawns and duck I have ever tasted! I have already recommended it to a few friends and would definitely recommend it to all who read this. Good value for money as you get what you pay for… also try the chilli ice cream!
