Reviews in Bristol City Centre

A really nice place for a drink or a meal. It has an extensive menu, so it is possible to have a light snack or a full dinner. Somewhere I didn't feel uncomfortable on my own.

Fantastic Curry's,the best I have had yet.It's very inexpensive if you take advantage of the 'happy hour' or (try the Korai)! Thank you Ahmed !

My Chicken Dupiaza Madras takeaway is always a goody and a free Bombay Potato every time! Yes Jardish it's Dave

I loved Las Iguanas. Food was great with a good selection of dishes and also a few unusual ones thrown in there. Cocktails excellent - especially if you order in happy hour (before 7 or 7.30 I think), although the only snag is that to get one free you have to order 2 of the same type. The staff have always been really good and helpful with me and generally upbeat and amusing at times. They play great music to suit the feel of the place and it feels really relaxed. I'd really recommend it.

I heard lots of recommendations from friends and work colleagues about this place, and I would have to say, it's ok, the food is fairly nice but I wouldn't rave about it. I think the actual place needs to be done up a bit (it's not awful just some bits are shabby) to make it feel nicer and add to the atmosphere. I'm surprised they haven't made it feel nicer than it does as it would be relatively simple. The staff were again ok, I wouldn't say amazing - we had to ask for our bill a few times and wait quite a while for it whilst they chatted and shut down the bar etc which is fine, however you'd just think they'd deal with the customers if they wanted to get off home. Food was good - I have had better Mexicans. However I have heard from several people at work that it's the best Mexican they've ever had - so differing opinions! There wasn't a huge range of cocktails and the one I had wasn't especially nice compared to the same cocktail I've had elsewhere.

The name has now changed to 'good taste' this is the most unbelievably hygienic restaurant and extremely friendly and familiar staff i only live around the corner but would travel miles for this restaurant as hygiene is top of my list of priorities when it comes to food the place is so well presented always fresh flowers and lovely Chinese style plants. Also if you walk by they wave out to you they are so friendly.

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.

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.

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!

A great meal,i highly recommend this trendy, friendly restaurant. My girl friend said it was the best meal ever ! had, maybe my best curry for a long time. Very friendly helpful staff, can't wait until i'm in Bristol again.

Superb meal. Very tasty vegetarian moussaka. Included in price was rice & a Greek Side Salad. Friendly staff. Murals of Greek Scenes and Greek Music transported us to Greece!!!

Bell's Diner produces the best food in Bristol by a country mile. I have been here many times and never once been less than overwhelmed. Everything on the plate, from the perfectly-cooked texture of the meat/fish, to the big punchy flavour of the sauces, to the immaculate presentation, screams of expertise and genuine care. To be fair, you may need to bring an adventurous palate and the (still reasonable) prices prohibit coming here all the time, but for a memorable fine dining experience there really is no other option. The staff are friendly, open, and knowledgeable without being prim or pretentious. I cannot recommend it enough, I really can't.

My law firm had a dinner party there - 14 of us in a private room. Was a great experience. Food and service wonderful and very plush surroundings.

Judging by the other reviews, this place seems to have deteriorated somewhat. The curries were of a good standard but not exceptional. The service was pretty good though not great. The ambience was lacking but the style of the place was entirely different from anywhere I've been before (in a good way). The main problem I found was that the 'pilau' rice had a distinct taste to it which was rather unlike I've had before and was not to my satisfaction. Overall, an enjoyable experience but not one that I will be repeating in a hurry.

I adore this place. It is the best japanese food I've tasted in a restaurant and the prices are so good that it doesn't hurt my wallet to go back again and again. The express lunch deal is great value although I found two courses at lunch a bit much. I recommend the yasai noodles in soup, I've had it twice and it is fantastic!

Love it. had a great night with friends.

The best sandwiches and salads in Bristol. Made to order and with a broad choice of salads, hot and cold meats, door step bread and friendly service. Very reasonably priced but given portion sizes, not too good for the waistline.

Nice, ambient lighting, cosy, local artwork on walls, etc. Staff not massively attentive at times. Food is good but we only had nibbles so can't really say. Great range of Belgian beers and gorgeous cocktails (Avon Gorge Mudslide/Chocwork Orange a must...).
