Reviews in Lytham

From the moment that you enter the restaurant the friendliness and hospitality of the staff is very refreshing. We have been attendees at the Red Fort for the last 3 years and being people that love an authentic Indian meal we can't praise the food enough. We have both tried the majority of dishes on the menu and we cannot say that we have experienced a sub-standard meal. The spices and flavours of the meals make the Red Fort special in our opinion. Add to this great service from friendly staff, in a comfortable surrounding, and it makes a perfect recipe for a night out. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

I have been visiting this authentic Indian restaurant for many many years now, and i am, as my wife and family are more than happy with its outstanding level of professionalism and dedicated service to us. I find the food to be outstanding, and am more than happy in this current climate with its competitive prices. All in all a great restaurant.

The customer service in is this Cafe by the "Mature" manageress/owner is dreadful, she rude and obnoxious. I would not recommend visiting this cafe. Urbanspoon reviews also state the same all of them stating the same manageress

Brilliant beer with fantastic choice. Good wine too. Friendly, efficient and knowledgeable staff. Relaxed atmosphere.

We have visited the Red Fort on a regular basis for several years now and have always been impressed with both the welcoming, friendly service and the excellent quality of the food. We have now got a two year old and have been taking him with us to the restaurant early evening on Sundays since he was tiny. The team at Red Fort have been amazing with him since we started taking him there and are still as welcoming as ever. The special deals are incredible value and portions are both high quality and plentiful, despite being really good value. Highly recommended for all including families.

Lovely little bistro/cafe, ate on my own whilst away with work, felt comfortable as a woman on my own, had seafood platter (£8.95) that was gorgeous and easily as good as I've had in far more expensive. great home made cakes for pudding and lovely coffee.

We visited the Red Fort today for the first time and were made welcomed from the moment we stepped through the door. The staff couldn't do enough for us from the moment we entered. I am vegetarian the the selection was extremely versatile. I had the loveliest aubergine starter I have ever tasted. Both my husband and I were delighted with the cuisine and the interior was immaculate. We will go back without hesitation. Highly recommended.

This truly is a first class culinary experience. From the minute you enter the restaurant, which is very tastefully decorated, you become part of this experience. The staff are not only efficient but also friendly. The preparation of the ingredients and the subtle blending of the spices do indeed place this restaurant at the top of the premier league. When the food arrives at the table you feel that this food has been prepared individually with you, the customer, in mind. For this reason you should carefully read the menu and decide when you arrive, not in advance, because there is something to suit all tastes and in each visit you will want to try something different depending on the frame of mind you are in. Everything is excellent - we cannot see you being disappointed!

I cannot believe how unwelcome myself, daughter, 2 daughters in law and 2 grand daughters were made to feel when we visited yesterday for icecreams. I am so disgusted that I feel I have to write and make a comment. The lady owner needs to learn some manners and not jump in to make a comment to her customers. My daughter in law was speechless. I wish now I would have made a complaint at the time. In these difficult times she should be pleased that her customers are prepared to pay over £8 for 3 icecreams. I will never again set foot in this place, and will also tell my friends not to bother too.

Excellent restaurant bright and cheerful both the decor and the staff the food is very well presented and delivers a pleasant kick as stated on the menu will be back

The first time my family and I ate here, the food and service was good. Although having been on several occasions since, I have found that the standard of both have drastically deteriorated. On my last, and most definitely final, experience at Portofino, my friend and I were left in the waiting area for 20 minutes without being offered a drink. When we were finally shown to our (wobbly) table our starters were brought to us and before I had finished eating, my plate was taken away as I was abruptly told that my main course was coming. I ordered a linguini dish and had to wait around as they had forgotten to bring me a spoon. The meals were tasteless and not once did a waiter/waitress come to our table to offer more drinks or ask if the meal was OK. Instead they proceeded to congregate in front of our table and squabble amounts themselves. We shall not eat here again. If you want a good Italian restaurant, go to Bosco or Sapori, they are both superb.

Excellent food and really friendly, attentive staff make eating here a pleasure - very highly recommended.

Delicious food and friendly staff. After many visits and far too many choices I think my favourites are Lamb Zaflong and Chicken Mandakini...so far!

My husband and I visited the Red Fort for the first time and it certainly won't be our last! Very friendly staff and lovely decor, especially with the mood lighting! The food was of the highest quality and excellent value for money. My husband said his lamb pathia was the best he's tasted in the whole of the Fylde (and believe me- he's had a few!) Highly recommended.

First visit, really good food, cheerful staff and got a complimentary sample dish to try which was lovely. Will definitely return!

My wife and I have just been to Red Fort where we had an excellent meal; the food and service were first class. The modern decor and general cleanliness serve to enhance an already top-notch venue.

We have dined in the Restaurant several times and also used the takeaway service. On each occasion the food as been excellent and the staff are efficient and very polite. Friends we have taken have also been impressed.

We have been regular customers of the Red Fort for some years. Very friendly and attentive staff, excellent food and an attractive and welcoming atmosphere.
