This is a well-thought out deli, with interesting, well-sourced products on the shelves and a very enthusiastic, bubbly staff. It all feels very relaxed. The food is prepared from scratch and top quality. They have just set up their own professional kitchens so you can take some of their delicious meals away and pass them off as your own at home. Perfect! I would definitely go back for more.
Red Earth Deli – KingsbridgeGreat hang out in centre of town to relax and have a bite... Superb unstuffy deli with friendly service and advice... What a find !!
Red Earth Deli – KingsbridgeA great deli run by enthusiastic and energetic owners clearly passionate about food. A great deli counter with strong Mediterranean and South American influences, with most of the produce made in the Red Earth kitchens. We loved the emphasis on buying local produce, the cheese counter was outstanding and the local Heron Valley apple juice is made only 5 miles from the shop. A relaxed and inclusive atmosphere made it a great place to stop for lunch. A gem.
Red Earth Deli – Kingsbridgethe best omlettes in the world!!!!
Montys – PlymouthMy wife and I run a country B&B near Dartmouth. We regularly visit and monitor local restaurants, so that our guests are properly informed. Of the many guests staying here who have recently dined at the award winning New Angel in Dartmouth, those who have also dined at the Kings Arms have all confirmed that there is absolutely nothing to choose between the top quality of both restaurants, although the Kings Arms is considerably less expensive.
Kings Arms – Dartmouthsuperb - makes every other restaurant in the area look very average.
The Salty Monk – SidmouthFine local seafood in a great building. The Owner Simon Brown was so friendly and the rest of the staff made us so welcombe. The art is not all to my taste but makes for an interesting meal. Highly recommend this place for a stunning meal or just a quick bite and a beer in the bar overlooking the harbour. Take a look at teh pics on there website www.11thequay.co.uk
The Quay – IlfracombeI've visited here countless times and will continue to. Whatever you do - don't miss the carvery - it's the best in North Devon!
Williams Arms – Brauntona really good meal, only next time i'd avoid the anglicised 'starters' and go for the pure japanese. my wasabi steak was excellent though, i even managed to eat it with chopsticks! great atmosphere, good value
Yukisan – Plymouthwe had an excellent meal, again, this time with kids and their grandparents. all enjoyed the food and no-one chose from the traditional menu. how authentic it's hard to say, but if you're bored of the usual indian this is the place to try. modern decor too
Cafe Indiya – PlymouthThis has to be the most exciting restaurant in Plymouth, the food is superb, fresh, flavourful and light, none of this thick heavy over MSGd kind of thing. Pure flavours, I had the seabass, it was stunning. I have been back since and tried the sashimi ans sushi as well as yakatori. Cannot fault it. well done. NB whenever I have been there has been a lot of Japanese eating here, that must say something.
Yukisan – PlymouthExcellent service, very quick and friendly. Fresh hot food. Great live music in relaxed atmosphere- Tues night. Will go back!
Blues Bar and Grill – PlymouthI have travelled around America extensively and this place is by far the most Amercian place I have encountered in the UK since the fall of TGIs. The food is such great quality and cheap when compared to other restaurants of this kind and the very friendly staff were only too happy to help with my fussy dietary requirements. When I make such demands, a restaurant rarely gets it right but Starz did. Their wine list is authentically amercian and top class. I will certainly return. The bar downstairs is classy and worth checking out too.
Starz Bar and Restaurant – Exeterreally good coffee, relaxed place, not too pricey, friendly staff
Montys – PlymouthWe tend to visit here everytime we visit my in-laws who live in Kingsteignton. There's so much to look at around the place - all the signs, etc - you could go in here on your own and not get bored! What a good place. It's tucked away though and we only found it the first time by accident.
Old Timers Wine Bar and Restaurant – ExeterWhat a gem - not on the High Street so you have to find it... Now we know where the locals go to eat and why they keep stum about it as they know what? best and this place is excellent. Amazing food as good as you will get and great atmosphere and service don't just let the locals have it all their own way!
The Orange Tree Restaurant – TorquayA small local pub with food way above expectations and some good ales. A varied menu includes pub favourites alongside more exotic fare; butterfish steaks, moroccan lamb casserole and more. Occasionally game is available, and this is very local and top quality. Wild rabbit with mushroom is fantastic, as are the partridge with bacon and the venison. The decor is dated, but the welcome is warm, as is the large fire in the grate.
New Inn The – BarnstapleThe A la carte menu may be expensive compared to other local restaurants, but the quality of the food, ambiance and service is head and shoulders above most of the competition. To save money, we went for the early-bird fixed price menu, which offers no choice (although they varied the main course for a vegetarian) but was great value for money. A smooth and creamy parsnip soup, a robust and hearty Daube of Beef (a towering and colourful Mediterranean tart for the veggie) and 'Eton Mess' to finish. Two glasses of wine, water and tip and it was still under £50 for two. Great view from the Atlantic room, some fabulous artwork on the walls and some nice design touches in the decor came for free. Thoroughly recommended
