New Farm Restaurant The – TauntonIt might be in the middle of nowhere, but I would travel even further to sample the excellent food served here, game and fish are as fresh, and as succulent as they can get and all perfectly cooked and in great surroundings
Tarr Farm Inn – MineheadI think the meal I had last night was one of the worst meals I have ever had in any restaurant in all my years. The owner was curt, seemingly disinterested, didn't want to talk and a terrible host. Just stayed behind the bar, seemingly very stressed, trying to do five things at once and had no interaction with the guests. And that's after the bill for extremely poor food amounted to £90 for my wife and I. Incredible and sheer extortion for the awful food. I started with 'smooth chicken liver parfait'. It was quite the opposite of smooth being full of big lumps. The pork fillet/tenderloin I then had on a bed of mashed potato was anything but tender. I could hardly cut into it and the mashed potato was 50% water. To cap it all I found an eight inch long black hair in amongst the vegetables, which didn't get any apology from the waitress when I handed it to her. I ended with sticky ginger pudding, which was a slab of goo with nothing with it. No cream, no ice cream. I had to ask for some which arrived 10 minutes later after the pudding had gone cold. Oh, and guess what? Yes, I found another long hair sticking out of the pudding too! My wife had a similar bad experience but I've run out of patience writing about it. My wife went through a process of ordering SIX different main courses before she found one they actually had available. And, how the meal and wine all came to £90 I have no idea but it was an experience I never want to go through ever again. £90 absolutely wasted and the worst pub food would have been twice as good and probably only a third of the cost.
Howards Bistro – NailseaFood was okay, shocking service. Pre booked a table for a group of us. Everyone ordered starter and main, while my partner and I had a set menu. Started promising as the food came out quick, three items came from the set menu, we then had to ask when the rest was coming after 15 mins (told that it was just coming), after another 30 mins when everyone had finished their bento boxes we still were with no additional food. The rest of our party were offered dessert menus while we were still waiting!! Was told that it was due to being very busy upstairs with 40 people. Considering that we booked in advance I find that it was a very poor excuse. Paid for the food we had and more than likely will not be visiting again due to the service - not the food.
Obento – Bristol City CentreEverything about this restaurant is excellent. Food is exceptional, service is friendly and extremely helpful and knowledgeable. There is a very nice ambience about the place. A real gem.
Howards Bistro – NailseaTHIS IS A FRIENDLY PUB AND IS ALSO GAY FRIENDLY, with a gay disco every Thursday night
Plucknett The – YeovilA really lovely little restaurant/cafe/bistro just off the beaten-track of George Street. We are daytime regulars (best coffee in Bath we reckon) but went last Friday night to try their famous tapas platters. The place was buzzing. We could tell all the dishes were made from scratch and were absolutely delicious. Next time we want to try their main dishes (rib-eye steak,risottos,sea bream etc.)which the table next to us had and looked divine. Really cosy atmosphere, fantastic fresh food, reasonable prices and a particularly friendly waitress made this an evening to remember
Same-Same But Different – BathA really great little restaurant/cafe just off the beaten track. We are daytime regulars (best coffee in Bath we reckon) but tried this on a Friday evening - the place was buzzing, we had an excellent tapas platter which we could tell was all made from scratch.

Same-Same But Different – BathI highly recommend Amici's restaurant. It has recently become a family favourite upon which we can all rely for a delicious meal, cosy atmosphere and attentive, friendly service. Whilst not the most modern interior and despite the slightly alarming (life-size)statue guarding Amici's entrance this venue is totally unpretentious, welcoming and accommodating.
Amici – Bristol City Centreexcellently located, this is a jewel on the river Avon with quality and fine cuisine, atmosphere, excellent service with personal attention from the management to ensure you are well looked after... I had a fabulous time and birthday there! If you are in Bath and look for a place to have drink in the cute and well arranged back garden facing the river before your meal and also stay beyond dinner, well then you now know where to go...
Opa Meze Bar and Greek Restaurant – BathThis is not a recommendation to got and have food at the Cross Hands its a recommendation to stay away. We went there today 11/05/08 and had the Sunday Roast which for £9.50 you think will be good. How wrong can you be, the meat was tough the gravy still had flour lumps in it and they never even brought the veg out for the meal untill we were nearly finished. The Cross hands is not worth the money and it is a place we will not be going back to again!!!!
Cross Hands The – Staple HillHad a really great meal at San Carlo last night - the food was delicious, the service was great, and the location of the restaurant is fantastic.
San Carlo – Bristol City CentreApsolutly Gawjuss Lush Food ( the steak ) recommended big time !! x
Opa Meze Bar and Greek Restaurant – BathI was recently on a visit to the UK from South Africa and had such a fantastic experience at Cobblestones I just wanted to tell everyone about it. The welcome on arrival was excellent - even being greeted by name (we had booked in advance as it was a birthday). We had a relaxing drink in the bar area first so that we could look at the menu and decide what to have. This was a very difficult task as there was so many delicious things to choose from but eventually we decided. The table had been decorated with fresh flowers and there was plenty of room for us to enjoy our evening. The food was excellent and obviously freshly cooked - how nice not to have something that had been thrown in the microwave to heat through, The sauce on my steak was out of this world and the steak was cooked to perfection. If you love deserts - this is the place to go!! What a wonderful selection, even those of us that were too full really to want one were tempted and the cheese platter had a variety of local cheeses that we had not tasted before. The whole experience was wonderful and the hostess made our evening one of the highlight of our trip. If ever we go back to the UK again we will definitely return. We now recommend it to all our friends that are visiting that part of the UK. Well done to everyone at Cobblestones and keep up the good work. 5 star restaurant and service!!
Cobblestones – MineheadOver priced, however food quality reasonable.Found the management had an arrogant attitude. Not a particularly welcoming atmosphere.
Junior Poon – ClevedonEaten at this place numerous times. The owner has produced a good menu and provides well presented well cooked food. If you can book a table do it. You should not be disappointed.
Mon Plaisir – ClevedonI celebrated my birthday a few weeks ago at San Carlo on Corn Street, and I just wanted to let everyone know what a great night I had! The staff were fantastic - they were happy to play along with my parents surprises for me, and sang 'Happy Birthday' to me in Italian with such enthusiasm, I felt like they were close friends! The food was beautiful - we had starters, mains and desserts, and all 3 courses came in record time, were presented beautifully, and tasted great. Overall, a fantastic place to celebrate my birthday - I really enjoyed myself, and without a shadow of a doubt will be returning! Thank you to all of the staff at San Carlo!
San Carlo – Bristol City CentreAppalling. I do not recommend this restaurant. The service was the rudest I have ever encountered. There were various incidents, but to sum up, when I went to the toilets mid-meal, I found upon my return that I had been moved to another table without my consent. They simply do not care whether their customers enjoy their evening or not. Dreadful.
