Reviews in Cheshire

I was really disappointed last night when me and my husband went to Amore. I rang the restaurant at 9pm sat night in order to check they would still be serving food when we got there at about 9.15. I was informed that they serve food until 10pm but we should get there a little earlier. We arrived at 9.20 and walked upto the desk and asked for a table. I was met with a very frosty reception from who I assume to be the manageress. She informed me that now was the time they stopped serving food. I informed her that I had already called and had double checked that we would be ok to sit and eat at this time. She was very rude, unhelpful and by no means professional in her manner. She shoved 2 menus at me and told us to sit at a table. We sat down only to be asked what we wanted by a waiter all of 2 minutes later. I got the feeling we were going to be rushed out of there and the service would be awful due to the time we had arrived so I gave her the menus back and we went to Oswalds where we were welcomed with open arms by very polite and helpful staff. Oswalds had every table full and the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere, Amore on the other hand had 1 table in when we arrived so I don't really think the manageress is in a position to turn away custom at 9.20 on a sat eve. I am totally shocked by this as I think she didn't handle it in a professional manner. Frodsham is a small place with very few restaurants to go to. Me and my husband have just moved into the area and go out for a meal about twice a month so Oswalds are going to get to know us pretty well. I had hoped that we would have a choice and be able to sample the food in Amore as it has mainly excellent reviews but I am now put off by my experience.

After seeing this restaurant so busy I thought it must be good. We were very disappointed. The service was awful, the food average and I certainly would not recommend it as the place to go for a nice italian

I have eaten here on a few separate occasions and I've always enjoyed my meal. I took my wife for Tea last night and we both opted for the Game Pie. I asked the waitress twice if it came with veg and Chips as the menu was unclear which she said yes. The Pie was 16 pound a head and when it was delivered there were a couple of Crisps a pie but no veg. So we waited and waited eventually someone realised something was wrong and they came over they said the veg was in the pie so they brought us some more over. There wasn't veg in the pie only a hair which fortunately was in my dinner and not my wife's who felt physically sick. The manager came over and I explained about the quality of the food and service I wasn't even kicking off I was merely explaining to assist them in future. They knocked the Veg and bowl of chips off the bill. I will never eat here again especially when there are other restaurants like the Plough and the Blue Cap who even when they don't provide quality food always provide excellent service

A warm welcome as we walked in looking for a bite to eat. The Steak Pie was home made and well presented. The bitter, Robinsons, was very good and served well. A definite return visit is planned.

What a fantastic place! Visited for the first time last weekend & met the new owners. The food was amazing and was complemented by excellent service from all the staff. Definitely recommend it to anyone - in fact, we're going to become regulars!

We had heard mixed reports about the new Frozen Mop but went to try it for ourselves a couple of weeks ago. Although it was in the middle to the week, the restaurant was busy. The place looked fanatastic - a total makeover of the old Chef and Brewer style. What a pity that the food didn't live up to the new decor. The menu was unimaginative to say the least. Starters and mains were expensive,lacked any attempt at presentation and did not include vegetables or salad in many cases which was unacceptable given the price.. We also waited well over 30 minutes for our starters to be served and the same delay before our main courses arrived. We couldn't be bothered to wait for desserts. A lot of expense has been incurred in revamping the Frozen Mop and its a shame that the food is so disappointing. Everyone else I have spoken to locally is of the same opinion. There needs to be a big improvement if the Frozen Mop is to be serious competitior to its Mobberley rivals the Plough and Flail and Roebuck.

We have dined here several times in recent weeks and have never been disappointed. The staff are very efficient and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble.

We visited this pub/restaurant on 30 Aug 2007 and people should know that it is no longer a Brewers Fayre but has had an extensive makeover and now serves delicious food. The menu is not very extensive but they are providing simple food which is well cooked. We both had fillet steak each of which was cooked as requested which is often not the case. The Mediterranean roast vegetables which we had with the steak were lovely. The service was friendly and efficient but not too over the top. It's not cheap but we thought it was good value for what we had. It's an old building in Mobberley but is now quite contemporary inside but it has been done sympathetically. We were there for our wedding anniversary but we won't be waiting another year to visit!

Went to Toma at 101 on Friday with a group of girl friends. We had a great meal, the "ambience" was great too! had a couple of drinks after our meal in the bar area too. Good night had by all. Hadn't been there for a while would definitely go again based on that visit.

i celebrated my 40th birthday at the deli garden last weekend, and had an great evening. the staff were extremely professional and friendly. the food was exceptional, i couldn’t have asked for a better evening. Betty even surprised us with a birthday cake! i recommend this restaurant to all Chinese food lovers! it is the best Chinese restaurant in macc.

Visited the restaurant a month ago {25th July} Staff were lovely and even though there was a crowd of 20+ next to us we still enjoyed an intimate meal. Thumbs up.

This pub has a new chef, and it shows, excellent dinner last Friday, they do a blackboard full of fish dishes, we had hake, seafood Tagliatelle and calamari, really good and about half the price of the awful Cock of Barton.

Love the views from here. My kids really enjoyed themselves and the service couldn't have been friendlier. We will be making our second visit again this weekend and my husband enjoyed his food so much last time that he is tempted to have exactly the same again. The food was fantastic and the chips are to die for - proper homemade ones! The veg was cooked to perfection which is my benchmark of a good restaurant.

Best Oriental restaurant ive ever visited. My first visit was maybe around 17 years ago when i was a small child, now i am 24 years old and i still love this place and its lovely owners and staff. Top quality food. Consistently fantastic every visit. Believe me, i know good food and this place is special. why else would we all keep coming back for more!

My Husband and I visited last night and had a lovely meal, tables are cramped together staff couldn’t have been more attentive , the food was fabulous & fast which is amazing as everything is cooked to order, this is a beautiful place to eat in the countryside with tractors ambling past the window. I will say it was a bit pricey £50 for the two of us we just had 2 courses no wine, but we will be visiting again

The new owners of the Cock O' Barton have transformed what was a character public house that served food into a truly delightful restaurant whilst actually enhancing the character and ambiance. The efficient and friendly service is refreshing and the imaginative menu and quality fayre even if some dishes are a little pricey ( fish and chips £16) means it is always wise to make a reservation.

We have eaten here a few times, and have never been disappointed. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There is always a wide variety of food from both the menu and the specials board.

The ambience could have been better as we had to pass through curtained areas and tables which hadn't been set,and coming through the front door it isn't very clear as to where the restaurant is. However the food and service more than made up for that it's well worth a visit if you want a special meal and some quality time in a restaurant.
