Unprofessional - Obelisk Hotel - 20 July 2010 I play in a band and we took 2 bookings at the Obelisk Hotel several months ago. When I telephoned them two weeks prior to the first event they tell us it's cancelled. Nobody from the Hotel bothered to contact me to inform me of this, saying "We couldn't find your number" despite clearly leaving my details for them upon booking. This is massively unprofessional behaviour and costs me money as I do it for a living. I could've taken bookings for both those dates and now will have to go without through no fault of mine. I wonder how they treat their hotel guests...

Clean and tidy service area good food and very good service by the staff.

Good value for money and good for the whole family.

Disappointed that we couldn't get entry to the lightship, as you have to be a member! No where does it say that you have to be a member!! On the plus side ..we did have a really fantastic meal in Landers.

avoid the fish pie my O/h didn't and is suffering from severe upset stomach, My steak pie was fine though.

The best pub/restaurant on hayling island, real ale and the best steaks ever

Excellent Food and service. Highly recommend and phone booking is a must. Excellent value for money.

DO NOT TRY TO GET FOOD HERE MOVE RIGHT ON TO THE GOLDEN LION DOWN THE ROAD.......we tried before 1pm on Wednesday 31 March, after travelling from Norfolk with two elderly visitors, they would not even give us coffee and a couple of bowls of chips, and this is the second time it has happened to us at this pub, it will not happen a third as we will go straight to Diane and the staff at the Golden Lion who were also busy but much more welcoming.....

A gem of a pub with good sized portions of food. Good selection of real ale. Friendly bar staff and good service.

A good range of choices on the menu at reasonable prices. Choice of portion size on some dishes. Real ale available at the bar. Does get busy on Sunday lunchtimes.

Their food is ok but it is not quite up to my expectation. I don't mind paying more for excellent food but this is definitely not the special one. Their service could put you off as they could be quite rude and intrusive maybe that they are in the prime business location where there is a lot of passing trades. So why should they worry about repeated custom.

Why?,when you find a good take away they mess(to be polite) it up!...Ordered food tonight.They got a dish wrong.They offered to bring meat to go in dish if I paid?!.After negotiation a meat was coming no charge..It came with an even hotter sauce!.I phoned and complained they laughed at me!!!!.I told them the rest of the meal was great,but the dish being hotter was not on.I offered for them to try different dishes but they weren't interested..Well saving sauces,lets see what the paper reviewers have to say!.

Kerelai food is the best Indian food we have had outside of India. Really delicious selection of dishes for our vegan, vegetarian and meat eating family! Friendly service, good price and fab food. Haven't found such authentic taste anywhere else in the uk.

Try the daily buffet (12 - 2, including Sunday). It's the best value at 7.95 around this region and the staff (especially Kamal if he's there) can't do enough for you. The a la carte menu is Keralan (southern Indian) and quite different from your run-of -the-mill Indian restaurant. Try also the sister restaurant in Burgess Road Southampton, 2 mins from Southampton University main campus - mosala dosa, an exquisite rice pancake with gorgeous veg filling (suitable for veggies and probably vegans too).

My favourite restaurant of all time! Being Vegan, choice is usually extremely limited if I attempt to eat out. I love the Kairali menu, with 'non-vegetarian dishes' taking second place in the menu to 'Vegetarian dishes'! And about half the menu is available for me to choose from. The food is delicious and very good value for money. I have introduced many friends (even the omnivorous ones) to the delights of Kairali and everyone loves the food.

relight my fire, its the best

A welcoming atmosphere, good food and congenial staff makes this a favorite place to come, whether for evening meals, or lunch.

SUPERB SUPERB SUPERB - not the cheapest place, but like anything in life you get what you pay for! Fantastic menu - WE means West meets East - so dishes are westernised in as much as you are not eating anything you've never heard of. Quality is outstanding, as is service and ambiance. A huge restaurant beautifully styled - unlike most Asian restaurants, there is loads of room between the tables. Fantastic choice of Indian or Thai food. F1RST CLASS!
