Reviews in Weymouth

Food was really good ,but what let let the restaurant down was the constant phone ringing and no one picking it up ,the staff running up and down between the tables with takeaway food ,very unprofessional and the food coming out the kitchen a bowl or a plate every ten minutes I only got half what I ordered and it took ages before my partner got hers

First time eating here and wasn’t disappointed food was lovely service was excellent and staff were very helpful and friendly, we would definitely eat here again.

We are regular customers and have not had a bad meal, very friendly staff and always greet us with such a happy atmosphere. Always recommend friends there.

The food ,surroundings, staff and atmosphere were outstanding. If Carlsberg did restaurants they would do one like this. Many thanks to all concerned.

It is new open place so not many people know about it yet. I am chef from Birmingham and I was there with my wife today. I must say that food is amazing and staff is kind and friendly. I had a see bass with creamy saffron sauce, my wife had a crab and spinach ravioli. My see bass had crispy skin and sauce was absolutely amazing, additionally I had fresh cooked new potato. Ravioli was homemade and was delicious. For desserts I had cheese board which was ok and my wife had raspberries cream brûlée and that was best cream brûlée I and she ever had. I recommend that place to everyone.

HOW NOT TO HANDLE A COMPLAINT AND I DON'T MEAN THE ONE ABOUT THE FOOD. On previous visits the food has been of a very good standard so when my visiting son suggested The Marquis for a family meal we had no problem even though our last visit was in September of last year. Was a little concerned when we arrived to be greeted at the entrance down the steps from the car park by buckets each side of the door full of cigarette ends and I am not exaggerating here, looks like they had not been emptied in days if not weeks or else they have some very heavy smokers as customers. Not something you would expect to see outside a good quality establishment and I hoped the food had not gone down as well. My son's meal of steak was fine, however the new potatoes accompanying my husband's meal were barely cooked and the outback ribs I was served were on this occasion overdone leading them to be dry, tough and tasteless instead of succulently falling off the bone as they should. Our waitress apologised and when I showed her the difficulty in cutting through the meat agreed that the ribs were not as they should be and offered to change the meal. Also the potatoes were taken back for a few more moments in the microwave. Top marks for handling this part of the situation. The problem began when the meal was returned. My son remarked how were were getting the evil eye from the cook and kitchen staff, I looked over and they were most definitely not happy with us. While I waited for my replacement meal we continued to get looks from a female kitchen staff member to the point where it was becoming annoying and upsetting especially when my replacement meal was served as once again our table was the centre of the kitchen staff's attention. Upset an annoyed I went to speak to the manageress and it is her attitude and the way she handled my complaint the ONLY reason why I am writing this negative review. I firmly told her that I disliked the way were were being gawked at by her staff and that I found it upsetting and unnecessary. She went straight onto the defensive an abruptly told be that the staff were her family members and that there was nothing wrong with my meal as she had eaten the ribs many times. I agreed that the ribs were usually very good but I felt that because I'd sent them back should not mean that we get dirty looks from her staff, (sorry her family members). When I said that the waitress had agreed they were not to standard I was told this time that the waitress was also a family member. I was then told to lower my voice and return to my table, I'd had my meal replaced what more did I want? Sadly I suffer from a degree of hearing loss so at times my voice is louder than it should be especially when I am upset but I am sure that it was not that loud as it did not seem to be disturbing other people at tables nearby. The woman then said in a very sneering tone that she would serve us herself and would stop her staff looking at me, if I didn't want to be looked at then they wouldn't look at me. I remained calm and told her how bad she was making me, a customer, feel by her manner and the way she was handling this to which she walked off into the kitchen. I returned to the table, what should have been a nice evening ruined. Too upset to eat further my son paid the bill IN FULL to which she said to my husband again in a very flippant manner that she was sorry if her staff had upset his wife by just looking at her. I really DON'T CARE about being served a substandard meal, it happens in all of the best restaurants on occasions and they did the right thing by offering to replace it and I was more than happy with that BUT I will not accept being made uncomfortable by staff rubber necking with po faces over at the table that dared to send a meal back and I will not accept being spoken to as though I were a child. All this woman had to do was to remain professional and say something along the lines of 'sorry I'm sure they didn't mean too, it's unusual for meals to come back etc. and I'll have a word with them' but no she chose to react in a very unprofessional way and as a result has lost custom and earned a negative review.

Great food good real ales music and excellent service, good all round pub.

I have eaten steak in many many restaurants all over and I can honestly say the best steak for presentation, taste and tenderness was at the Marquis of Granby. My family from Manchester really enjoyed their meals and enjoyed the visit. Thank you to the landlord and staff.

Don't bother Rude arrogant staff that seem to have a chip on there shoulder. Food lacking, The battered Jumbo sausages were gray inside tasted like they had had better days. Be warned, just walk on by plenty of other good fish and chip shop just a few steps away... Definitely shan't be returning for a second experience....!!!!!
