Reviews in Bristol and Somerset

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.

Fantastic food of late, can't stop eating there. Service is fantastic and they throw in lots of freebies if your lucky! Like me! It must be my good looks, just give them a twinkle of your eye! Very conciseness about health and safety to their customers and treat you with respect. love the guys there, not a bad word to be said! Also Tuesdays and Thursdays they have a special four course deal for 8.95 per person. ***** Recommendation for all you curry lovers!

this was our second visit to the restaurant . we were not disappointed.we dined on a Saturday night the restaurant was full . the steak was cooked to perfection and the fish was also excellent and presented well . the sweet was good although not stunning . it was good to see an excellent range of top quality wines by the glass available, also, for those whom prefer quantity over quality the house wines were decently priced . this restaurant has excellent staff and deserves regular patronage

It has to be the best local pub/restaurant in Weston, superb views in the beer garden, excellent local ales, very accommodating/friendly staff (I'm always happy to tip well) and the food is second to none from Friday night steaks to Sunday roasts, never been disappointed yet. However I would recommend you book as it can get very busy on the weekends.

I went to Casamia a few weeks ago, before it got its Michelin star (which is very well deserved) and would be pleased to recommend it to anyone thinking of going. The bar and restaurant staff are friendly making the service excellent. My boyfriend and I were amazed at the food, the presentation was perfect and the flavours were out of this world, far exceeding our expectations. This restaurant is one of the best known secrets I have!

Took friends to this Restaurant, Was very pleased with the meal & service, We were taken though the menu by a well informed waiter making sure we got the best value from our visit.

We ate at Ocean in January 09 and had a great meal. The standard of food is as good as some of the more well known and more expensive restaurants in Bristol but with a more intimate and friendly atmosphere. I would recommend and will be returning soon.

way better then san carlos. food is outstanding .. a must!!!!!

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

What a superb pub! The food is absolutely wonderful-all home cooked and fresh. The service was also very good. My family & i visited last Sunday and were most impressed-would recommend to friends.

we've been going to Casamia for over a year now (6 or 7 occasions). Each time, the whole experience has been a joy and one that I would wholeheartedly recommend. The restaurant itself is located in Westbury-on-Trim but you would be pushed to find it and would struggle to stumble across it if just passing by. It is located in a small alley/courtyard and this in itself lends to the anticipation - its as though your travelling to a secret bolt hole or through a cupboard to Narnia. (to get to the front door you also have to pass the kitchen and with window's open the smells immediately hit you and get your tastebuds going). Once inside you are greeted by the waiters/waitresses and usually by the owners as well who always deliver a warm and considerate welcome. It is small inside, which only adds to the relaxed but special atmosphere. The drinks are good (always kick off with a manzilla), with a decent if small wine list. However, the real beauty of Casamia is in the eating. The a la carte menu offers a good variety and the food is always beautifully presented and most importantly absolutely delicious. Do go for the tasting menu if you can however as this is really where the chefs show of their undoubted talent and creativity - the mozzarella and tomato is unlike anything you have ever had. I've just learnt that Casamia has been awarded its first and Bristols only Michelin star. Well done and well deserved to all - i'll be back on Valentines day to say hello.

We have used this restaurant on many occasions since it opened, 30 years maybe? They use fresh food which is always excellent, as is the service by young staff who are always pleasant and polite. Lisa and Jimmy run this establishment efficiently and ensure the customer always comes first.

when in mendip, the Pub is well worth a visit for good beer, fine wine, local cider and Daria's tasty homemade cooking, which is great value. The interior is comfortable with open fireplace, and it is home to a vibrant skittles league. Whether a quick coffee or an evening out, you will not be disappointed by the quality or the value.

This is by far the best indian restaurant, the food is fantastic every time! A great atmosphere, always busy and rightly so.

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.

jade palace what can i say 10/10 good service and the best best food ever
