Reviews in Wakefield

I have been to the Pagoda many times since it opened (I live nearby). I have celebrated special occasions (large party), or been for a quiet meal for two. I have yet to be disappointed.. the staff will bend over backwards to help; even mixing and matching the already varied menu. To be honest, the wine list isn't brilliant, but the 'house' choices are palatable. Go for the 'sizzlers'...my favourite! If you are a large party, ask them to mix and match, they will just recommend a feast or vary the menu. One downside....I went for Sunday lunch, once....didn't enjoy it! guess I'm more of a roast beef and Yorkshire person! I have no connection with this place other than that of a satisfied (and regular) customer.

I Wish I could eat here every day! Fantastic! Friendly, efficient staff and wonderful atmosphere.

One of the best restaurants to go to in Wakefield City centre, however it is a little pricey for what you get in the end. Lack of competition from other restaurants allows the prices of this one to stay high. It would be good to see more top class quality eating establishments in the city centre.

Third visit this year. It must be good or we wouldn't keep coming back!! The atmosphere is great, the service excellent,and the choice of food on both the menu and the "specials" boards is outstanding. A "must" for eating out in Wakefield.

Great meal helpful staff nice surroundings

The best pub food in yorkshire, you would travel miles for this place and so you should, its a good price, a warm environment and friendly staff. we try to go some where else but the amazing aura makes us come back constantly, its like sunday everyday when we walk in.

The best city restaurant grill in wakefield, though some way to go on the service to be challenging for been the best overall, the food menu is good, presented and tastes great, atmosphere is good but this place is another of those small restaurants aprox 40 covers which means the service should be easy and a lot better.

The service quality of food are outstanding. The home made Steak Pie is amazing together with the chunky home made chips make eating at the plough out of this world.

I thought the old hall was amazing. We were seated in a room upstairs which was beautiful we will definitely be going again

Possibly one of the few places where you get a group of people who have a great laugh, just watch out for that Kenny Cartwright and his sons, the heart of the anglers

A very nice pub with cheap beer and lager (samsmiths pub) and the food is very good

we went to the restaurant tonight and the atmosphere was excellent the host was charming and the food was like nothing I have tasted before. This place is definitely a food place - I had the seafood platter and the scallops were cooked to perfection. Definitely the best restaurant in Wakefield and is so close to Leeds. i will be back with friends. Thank you for a lovely time Valentinos! keep up the good work

Anyone who has enjoyed the cuisine at Dolce Vita in Wakefield will recognise instantly the superb Pate. My companions had a simple warm garlic bread and a more exotic pasta and - in deference to them we chose the Orvietto which was a superb drink. My very thick but beautifully cooked and presented fillet steak was so large as to leave very little room for any of the numerous fresh vegetable options on the side dish. A fine Canneloni was enjoyed by my wife whilst the two guests shared a large rack (crown) of lamb - delicious and superbly presented and enough for us to sample - indeed the main courses left no room for us to check out the sweet menu, but the coffee was excellent and rounded off an excellent evening. A second bottle of Orvietto took the final bill for the four of us to just over £90 - I hate the word average in the cost panel above for nothing about this evening was anywhere near average. A busy Saturday night in no way slowed the service and it goes down as one of our best outings in recent months - so much so that the in-laws are due next week from the States, and guess where we are taking them!

The staff and especially the food was of top quality. It is a carvery meal and you can put as much vegetables on as you wish. Everybody really enjoyed their meal and to finish off a fabulous day it only cost £3.50

visited several times. food excellent, service excellent, and you are not rushed out when you have finished. good choice of wines and beers. all round, highly recommended

Service was friendly and prompt. We arrived early and the place was very quiet and pleasant. The food we had was picked from an early bird menu and when it arrived it the portions were good sizes, freshly cooked, very hot and delicious. Would recommend and we shall be going again.

This 2 for 1 eatery is as you would expect. The food is edible and there is plenty of it. I would imagine this place is good if you are with people who aren't too fussy about the quality and go more for quantity. I suppose you get what you pay for so don't expect haute cuisine.

Very relaxing atmosphere with a roaring open fire at wintertime on the upper level. Plenty of choice on the menu , but be warned the mixed grill is only for those with very large appetites!i recommend the lasagne!
