Reviews in Leeds and Yorkshire

The food was not nearly as good as the other reviews suggest. My starter was rabbit terrine served on a couple of slices of toast. The chunk of terrine was very bland - very like a bought-in commercial product. (My wife had ordered a smoked salmon pancake which turned out to be a couple of slices of smoked salmon wrapped around a sort of potato croquette!) My main course was King Scallops and Crabmeat served on over-used (blackened around the edges) clam shells topped off with cheese and grilled - for far too long. I had a strong suspicion that the scallops were frozen and the crabmeat was commercial. The cheese used for topping was far too strong and completely overpowered the taste of seafood. It was accompanied by a loose ball of salad leaves - mostly parsley and what I think was rocket. A good deal of the leaves were black and soggy - just like when you leave leave salad in the packet for far too long in the fridge at home and have to throw it away - and there was grit around the parsley leaves where they hadn't been washed properly. I drew this to the attention of the floor manager who went to speak to the chef. She came back to say that the chef had said that the appearance had something to do with pesto (I didn't understand what he was trying to say and there wasn't any pesto on the leaves). I could tell she wasn't convinced either and she did apologise - but didn't offer to change the soggy mess! We paid £2 extra (very reasonable) for two portions of vegetables. The vegetables were only briefly cooked just as I like them (except the leeks which are uneatable when only flash fried). For wine, I chose a New Zealand Pinot Gris which was very pleasant and at £20 a little dear, but par for the course. La Rue could be good if only they would use good fresh produce instead of buying in pre-made food and if they took a bit more care. Rabbit Terrine isn't difficult to make from scratch and should be very tasty. It's not difficult to wash salad properly and throw out stuff that's past it's best. And if a customer shows you a salad with black soggy lumps of rotten leaves in it - for goodness sake, don't make excuses for the chef, apologise and change it!

Fantastic food and very child friendly. we had 6 children for the Saturday lunch time menu, ranging from 2years to 14 ,the adults and children enjoyed gorgeous food in a lovely,, relaxed atmosphere, all at a reasonable price. I will be recommending it to all my friends with or without children!

Dire in most respects! The Welsh Rarebit was a joke: one piece of cheese on toast does not constitute a Welsh Rarebit! Lattes were coffee-less and the menu was stodgy, unimaginative and limited: totally boring and uninspiring in fact. A very poor experience.

Today I visited this restaurant, for lunch, with my 5year old grandson. He was able to play in the indoor area whilst waiting for our meal. The food for both of us was well presented and very good. The staff were friendly and helpful especially Lynette who served and chattered with clients of all ages, producing a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised and will certainly be visiting again.

Not much cop to be honest - very expensive, I remember it was something like £1 for 1 popadom plus the fat git that owns it is rude and obnoxious!

We have been regularly visiting the Go-Down for a number of years. The food and service has been consistently good throughout that time beginning with its welcoming loaf of warm bread . Portions (unless you opt for the early bird menu are daunting. Even going for the early bird it is a struggle to accommodate all three courses. It would be hard to find better quality and value for money.

Me & My Family Love Eating Here, The Food May Be Slightly Expensive However It Tastes Great And Is Great Quality! The Service Is Very Good Also & There Is A Good Ambience Whilst You Eat.

We travelled a fair way to this new venture and it was well worth it. The effort the owners have put in should see them reap their rewards. The wide variety of food was excellent as well was the service and surroundings. If you are passing it makes a refreshing change to the norm. Buenos Suerte! Cuckoos.

I've visited Salute a few dozen times since they relocated from Oulton. The food is consistently excellent and it is rare to be disappointed with any aspect of a visit. We often visit just for a drink, and although a little more expensive then pubs in the area, it more than makes up for this in service and ambiance. On many occasions when we have visited early in the evening for the Early Bird menu we brought our baby daughter and received a wonderful welcome from the staff. This really makes a difference. In summary: the best restaurant for miles around.

Took advantage of the early bird 3 course menu on our short break to Harrogate. Excellent value , food cooked to perfection the sweets were to die for. Would certainly recommend it.

Found this restaurant during our short break to Harrogate. Very authentic pizzeria - Luigi excellent mine host - great welcome. Food fantastic , value fantastic , great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Pleas first let me say that it is Raj Pavillion and not paj could be very confusing, secondly if you like Indian food this for me is the only place to eat in Hull have tried just about all the other Indian Restaurants and nothing comes close to matching every detail above

It took an hour for someone to come and take our orders down, then the food took over a hour to arrive. The cost was so expensive. I would highly recommend not going.

The guys here work very hard as you can tell when we entered on a v busy saturday night! Did not think we would get a table as packed owner sorted us out (Chris) Food good Fajhitas the best we have had! word of warning - share a Nachos starter they are HUGE!!

It has been some time since we visited William and Victoria's upstairs restaurant and so were amazed by the transformation! Beautiful decor and the food matched. No wonder Will & Vics was voted Harrogate's favourite restaurant at the 2007 Plush Awards!

My wife and I went to the Box Tree on the 5th October 2007 for our 5th wedding Anniversary. This was a very pleasant experience and the food was flawless and the atmosphere very relaxed. The building it self makes you feel like you are about to experience something very special, it delivered and we will go back again.

I agree with Jannine, I have visited this establishment on many occasions over the last few years and we have always received the same good quality of service and food in a clean pleasant atmosphere. The prices are actually average but portion sizes and service levels make them more modest when compared to other restaurants in Doncaster. Even with a large party the service never suffered (how many other places can you say do that?) and special diets can be accommodated easily. I think I will book for the weekend!

How can this place have no recommendations ?? We went on Monday 23/10 and we delighted to find it was 'All you can eat buffet night' all night. Soup, starters, duck in hoi sin pancakes, main courses, noodles, rice and puddings all for £8.95 a head. It was one of the best chinese's I have been to in ages. You got a clean plate for each course unlike some places where they expect you to use the same plate for everything. This place is no where near where we live but we will be back !
