Lovely food, a nice touch having items on the menu that are clearly hand made in house. Cocktails were well made. Staff attentive and friendly Decor is pretty, spotlessly clean

My husband and I dined on the evening of 18th November 2021. We were the first diners of the evening, so had the full attention of lovely Hannah, who managed to maintain her lively engagement with all customers as the number of diners increased [there were about 12 diners when we left]. The leek and blue cheese tart was very tasty. I could not detect any taste from the 'leek dust' and would have preferred a stronger presence of the pink ?shallots. I ordered venison, which replaced the duck that evening; my husband had the brisket. For both of us, the meats and accompanying jus were amazing and my husband enjoyed every morsel on his plate. For me, however, the two purees tasted only of butter and the 'alleged' parsnip puree was, particularly to me, disappointing as I love parsnip. Also, as the meat itself was 'melt in mouth' the combination of two purees gave the disturbing sensation that I was eating an invalid's meal. Apart from the perfectly al dente broccoli, I felt that the plate lacked texture. One pilfered chip from my husband's plate made a beneficial difference! The dessert of chocolate brownie was disappointing, not only because the usual accompaniment of 'Coconut Ice-cream' was replaced with boring vanilla; the brownie itself was too dry, too dense, too hard and tasted of oil. We enjoyed an excellent Argentinian Merlot making the total bill £73. I would like to think that, on my next visit, I will have a more positive gustatory experience, as one would expect from a restaurant intending to demonstrate excellence in its learning environment. Excellent for value for money had my main and dessert courses not disappointed.

Lovely atmosphere, food really good along with service. We will be back as ion.

I reserved a table for lunch in the Iâl restaurant on 12th November. The food was very good from the lite bites menu but overall there was a very good choice on whichever menu you choose from. Food was delicious and hot, service good but not over intrusive. Overall a very pleasant couple of hours. We shall be back to try out the evening dinner menu.

Food is excellent as are the staff, would recommend.

Lovely place, very kind and friendly staff and perfect food. Definitely recommend this place and will be there more often.

Superb evening to celebrate 2 birthdays. Fabulous food, great setting and excellent service. A great asset to Wrexham

Had a meal here on a Sunday. Some of the group had the Sunday roast menu both meat and vegan. My daughter had the child's menu. Some had food off the maim menu. The food was lovely everyone enjoyed the meal in a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Front of house where good. The chefs did an amazing job. Will be back. Highly recommended. Well done

Excellent service and food could not fault any of it

First time here and was pleasantly surprised the restaurant is modern and clean and the staff were lovely, very informative when asked about the dishes and wines, nothing was too much trouble, the food was excellent the chefs and waiters are doing an excellent job well done everyone, Sunday lunch is next in our list .

Lunch fo 2 . We had a lovely catch-up lunch in a pleasant atmosphere with attentive staff. Just a few helpful points for the future. The wraps we had were placed on paper on a log plate, attractive to look at but not so good when cutting up food as paper in mouth! Best not to clear table when one person still eating as feel rushed. When at end of meal and asking if anything else is required perhaps not to offer ‘do you want the bill’ we enquired if the table was required for someone else which it wasn’t and we just wanted to chat while finishing our mock tails it could have felt like we were expected to leave had we not inquired. Overall a good experience and would return. Well done students.

Second time to eat at Ial, and had another very enjoyable evening. Food was amazing - great talents coming from this kitchen. And front of house staff were attentive without being intrusive. Was lovely to see the restaurant full and buzzing. Highly recommend.

A friend and I had lunch during the half term. Service was excellent, really friendly and efficient. Food was lovely and nice presentation. The venue is also really nice, modern, clean and inviting. I hope they are able to expand on the menu options a little more over time. Really enjoyed it, and will be back!
