Reviews in Devon

we went to this restaurant on a recommendation from some friends who had been and said that they had had a fabulous time, well ! 8 of us booked and turned up as planned, we had an absolutely brilliant night the place was busy but the staff were fab no panic yet always attentive. The Thai Green curry was to die for and all my friends said their food was great too, the only moan was that some of us had to wait a bit for our mains to come but they were worth waiting for ! fresh tasty and good value. If you want a truly good meal in a great environment but real honest authentic thai food this is the place !

Great food, friendly service and very good wine list for a Indian restaurant

Highly recommended for its food, service and atmosphere. Ideal for a romantic evening. Excellent menu and wine list. From the bread to the dessert, it was a lovely experience. Our compliments to the Paul (chef) and his wife Sarah (waitress). Maria and I really enjoyed our evening, and we will return.

Bad atmosphere when you walk through the doors, food very tasteless and over priced and would not recommend to anyone, very disappointed as was recommended myself. Not sure what the manageresses problem was but obviously not happy. Very poor:(:(:(:(

I attended this restaurant a while ago with my friend who says the Thai Food is some of the best she has tasted. I then visited more recently at lunchtime and we were literally the first customers in the place but the jacket potato I received was from the previous night - this was confirmed by the waitress. The noodle soup we had was also reheated from the night before. It's a shame because my previous visit was a success. So give it a go. You might get lucky.

Great pub with fantastic real ales, the menu choice is slightly limited by to days standard but there is always something to suit everyone and its all homemade/home cooked and beautifully fresh. Portions are pretty big but if you can manage a pud then there's plenty of proper english one's to choose from. Staff are always helpful & friendly and it is exceptional value for money.

A very homely restaurant with French style "shabby chic" decor where you feel instantly at ease and relaxed. A great selection of drinks to enjoy while you choose from a varied menu and specials board. The food is superb, delicious and good portions, you do not leave feeling hungry nor guilty as you sent so much back, just comfortably full as you had to squeeze in the last tasty mouthful. The staff are great, friendly and attentive. It is also excellent value for money.

I really love The Brioche for an after school treat for the kids or a relaxed breakfast. The ambience is cool and the food cheap and tasty. The staff are always pleasant and on the whole I think it's a pretty good deal.

We took our daughter and five of her friends out for a birthday celebration at Yukisan and we can't really praise it enough. The staff is professional and polite (now there's a change) and the service and food were both excellent. We sat upstairs, too and loved the atmosphere. It was a little hard on our backs and legs after awhile though we still recommend it for an authentic experience. 5 stars on all counts. If you haven't been, get going!

Nice atmosphere, good beer and wine. Starter - pate/terrine was ok. Main - steak was variable - my rare one was cooked close to medium, and my wife's blue one (and this was repeated many times to the waitress!) was medium-rare, and remained mainly on the plate. The chips (though they called them something different) were very greasy and tired. Dessert - coffee creme brulee was really really very poor. It was more of a layer of (reheated?) thick jellified custard lying on a coffee mousse - and I left it (not because I was full). The service was very friendly but patchy. We were charged for drinks which we cancelled 25 minutes after being ordered.

This is a wonderful little Bistro. Difficult to book as is only open Friday and Saturday but well worth it when you do. Food is fresh, served by Hazel who with her husband as Chef runs the place and is wonderfully friendly with superb food. The speciality fish is always worth trying.

Great Indian food that is freshly prepared and is akin to excellent home cooking. My favourite dish is the prawn on puri starter which is beautifully sweet and sour and very tomatoey ! Very friendly service and reasonably priced so highly recommended. Dennis & Ann

I met some girlfriends for lunch here recently and was most impressed. The lunch menu was lovely and well priced, I believe it was about £8 for 2 courses. A very relaxed dining experience, lovely attention to detail and excellent service.

Visited Leandra restaurant for the first time 5 months ago (4 of us), had advertised outside a set price for a three course ,however upon seating we were told that particular deal was off ,when i asked why,he just pointed to the menu abruptly, my girlfriend ordered the peppered steak well done when it arrived it was rare and bloody instead of cooking a fresh piece he just threw it on the grill for a couple off mins , the service through out the evening was terrible, the waiter had an attitude (which was noticed by the table next to us)and to add insult to injury he started to spray detergent on the table next to us while we were eating (which didn't taste very nice with the meal) needless to say wont be frequenting this establishment again

value for money child friendly,polite staff

This is the best pub food in the Ilfracombe area by a country mile. Quality and consistency from Simon are signs of an excellent chef. Barbara serves an excellent pint of real ale

Very disappointing. our evening food tasted as if it was reheated from lunchtime. We wont be returning

Tried this restaurant when it first opened and it was great, tried it again a few months later and the service and food were poor. Decided to go for lunch to see if things had improved and they have not - terrible food and terrible service. I would not have minded if the place was busy but there was only 3 other tables, it took the waitress 15 minutes from taking my order to come back and say my dish was out of stock and then another 25 minutes to produce the worst baguette I have tasted, tasteless limp bacon with brie that was just out of a fridge and a splodge of cranberry sauce - the best bit was the crisps that accompanied it, my OHs meal was no better, over cooked scampi and chips served with peas and some Caesar salad! It is such a shame the food is so bad as the decor of the restaurant is really nice. It was once a good place to eat but is certainly somewhere I will not visit again.
