Reviews in Bristol City Centre

Zest is a easy to reach restaurant, which gives you a taste of many choices of mediterranean food to try. Cooked to a high standard and always well presented on the plate not to mention delicious. Really good value for money a fantastic place for group evenings out as well as a cosy romantic dinner for two. Definite place to visit

Two of us enjoyed a fantastic meal in this sparkly contemporary restaurant, this place serves the posh food you see on tv but never get to eat. The staff are smiling, attentive, happy and know all about the food on the menu. We had Starter: Scallops, mmmm. Pate; Delicious. Mains: Steak, wow this place could do a Blk&bleu perfectly, tasty, juicy, tender. Stuffed Rabbit loin, sweet and delicate and amazing. The food was so professionally and prettily presented, it was perfect portion control, allowing you to have a 3 course dinner without feeling hungry or stuffed to bursting point! Wonderful. We decided to go back every week until we've exhausted the menu!

Shocking, if you want a portion of food poisoning delivered to your door then this is the place to go!

I was unfortunate enough too eat here on Friday. We duly arrived on time and were told too wait at the bar, no complimentary drinks, we complained several times and were eventually seated over 25 mins late. When the starters came out, they were very disappointing. One was covered in olive oil and the other was saturated in fat!!! We duly complained, the manager became very aggressive to a female in the party and it was only when we pointed out the timescale he relented. The mains did arrive and were satisfactory at best, that is being generous. When we came to pay, nothing had been deducted from the bill and they even charged for service!!! I have spoken to several people and this appears to be a common complaint. I will not be going back for a long time and have ensured that anyone I know who uses it regularly is enlightened.

The moment you pass through the small archway by the takeaway area, you are immediately transported to a small village taverna in Cyprus. The owner Mr George Ioannou (with his big friendly grin) and his wife Flora, welcome you to your table, whilst in the background Greek music softly plays though the many speakers around the walls. The food is typically Greek Cypriot and is made entirely by the owners, George and Flora. The doner-kebab (which is one of my favourites) is available, takeaway and on the restaurant menu, It tastes like it was made by Aphodite herself). If you enjoy lamb and lots of it, then the kleftiko is highly recommended as is the Bagadakia (lamb chops) and dont forget the meze! It is one of the best you will ever have in your life. The atmosphere is always very friendly and if you come here enough times you will see lots of familiar faces as the customers tend to come back time and time again. There is never a rushed atmosphere here, George will never try to push you out, in fact once you have become a friend of his, he is more likely to say to you "What's you hurry?" But dont take my word for it, try it for yourself, you wont regret it, I promise!

I would recommend The Living Room just for the cocktails (which were great) but the food was excellent as well ! So good to be able to go out and have a steak cooked properly! The atmosphere was chilled out but service was still sharp. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would go back.

ive tried ezo by a friends advice and I'm really pleased I've went there, the food was delicious we really enjoyed it, staff were great really nice to us, and at the end we were all surprised with the bill which came to about 20-25 quid each totally gobsmacked with the service, i would definitely go back there again, and would recommend to every one, to taste the great turkish kitchen at ezo's

Warning - this restaurant will charge full price (even if you paid a deposit) for any cancelled seats/no shows in your booking. Any restaurant that is happy to take a deposit (not explain the details) and then feels the need to brings out their terms and conditions to show customers should be avoided.

Enjoyed our meal at the San Carlo restaurant on Corn Street immensely. As a lover of all Italian food, I was very impressed with the range and quality of dishes on offer here. The Scallops San Carlo was absolutely delicious and was complimented by some fine chardonnay. We’re already looking forward to eating there again.

Have eaten here a couple of times now. Food is fantastic and the menu is updated regularly. Staff are very friendly and the owner takes an interest in customers feedback and comments.

The menu serves Japanese food, but it's not close enough to what it's suppose to be, and I feel slight resentment that this place is called Japanese restaurant, because as far as I am concerned, it serves bastardised mock-Japanese food. Rice used for sushi was hard - it was clear the rice was chilled in the fridge as well, something no respectable Japanese restaurant will ever do! That is one of the worst mistake non-Japanese make with sushi, it's unbelievably poor. Yakitori again, was close enough to what you would be served in Japan but not close enough to be worth the price. If you want nice sushi, just go to Yo! Sushi; ok, so they serve westernised bastardised mock-Japanese food as well but at least their rice used in sushi hasn't been put in fridge until it goes hard.

Really tasty dishes - freshness of the salmon was unbelievable. Loads of cooked sushi options too which my partner chose as he doesn't like raw fish. Meal for 2 including sake was under 35 pounds which we thought was very good valued. Highly recommended!

We visited Zen a couple of weeks ago and they really have gone to town on the decor. A lot of money has been spent here on creating this establishment and they've done a pretty good job. My only concern with the venue itself are the very high ceilings. It's not particularly intimate and feels too big. The food however is very good quality and I for one really enjoyed it. it's not your normal Chinese restaurant, no Chow Mien on or anglo-chinese creations. Very authentic, good service (although a little bit too in your face at times - constantly topping up your water after a few sips is not really necessary!) I would go back again, but my partner found everything a little too spicy. One for the more adventurous. Would be a great place for a larger party.

Plantation is simply out of this world. First high class Caribbean Restaurant in Bristol. It has an open kitchen. And, your meal is prepared right in front of your eyes. How cool is that? Personally, I am addicted to plantation's fried and baked plantains.. Did you know? Plantation Restaurant owners introduced the no-smoking ban long before the Government got round to implementing it. I remember a belly dancing show as part of a charity event at the restaurant. I actually felt being outside my own body. Which other place can provide you with such experiences. I hope you have similar experiences when you next visit the restaurant and write about them.. I recommend plantation as the only venue for your night out. Why not book your party.. This Restaurant has the space to host a large party.. Have your there and then write about it here..

Three of us ate here and the food was excellent. We all had a grand spread of marinated meats, cooked over charcoal, salads, breads and plenty of Turkish beer. The staff were really great and the bill was £20 each....Job Done!

I love this place, atmospheric, superb well informed front of house, stunning modern European cooking with fabulous presentation and one of the best wine lists ever.

Great traditional Italian personal friendly service from great staff, authentic hand spun Pizzas and super pasta dishes. Cant fault it.

it is fantastic!!!
