Reviews in Plymouth

We visit the China House weekly, it is such a cosy pub where we catch up with friends or just chill out. The food has always been good, particularly the Duck Salad and are standard pub prices. Most of the staff are friendly and helpful but as already said it is the wonderful building and location that are the real reason we go. You can sit out on the balcony overlooking the yachts or inside on colder evenings where you can cosy up in a corner or in a big chair by the fire. A lovely pub to go with friends when you are looking for a relaxing drink.

We have just come back from a fantastic dinner at Piermasters. Apparently there is a new head chef, and we can't wait to recommend the kitchen for the great menu selection and fabulous food. My partner had seafood for both courses and raved about the scallops and the sea bass. I am not a huge fish fan so I opted for the duck and was impressed by both the presentation and the lovely combination of tastes. We'll be back!

I heard that piermasters had changed there chef, my party and I haven't eaten there for about a year because the food had really started to go down hill, BUT on monday night decided to go in and try out the new chef's food, it was delightful, the scallops where fresh and the crispy vegetables set it off really well (need to learn how to do that), for mains I had the fillet steak with tiger prawns which was cooked perfectly. My friend had the duck which looked amazing. Then for dessert the vanilla creme brulee WOW the best ever. Thank you for a great night we will be back.

I have been here twice in the last year and it has been excellent. The food is certainly different to standard Indian restaurants and there is alot of choice. Pricing is very good and this is a popular restaurant. Very small point is that when very busy the service was a little slow but staff all very pleasant and polite and lovely atmosphere. We sat upstairs for a large party and it was brill

Have eaten here twice and it is the best Indian meal we have had in a very long while. The decor is fabulous, the service excellent and the food is extremely tasty and good portions. I can totally recommended this dining experience.

Hi to all , dined at Fat Mama's on my U.K TRIP in 2007 , the best Burgers in England , i put on 5KG's in 3 days !! , Neil Baker , Victoria , Australia .

Has to be the worst ever eating out experience. 90 minutes for the food to arrive and then burnt and inedible!! A further 30 mins. to replace it and still not good enough. A complaint to the manager/proprietor resulted in a full blown row where he sought to tell me, a customer, about the etiquette of complaining. Apart from the sea view there is NOTHING to commend this place whatsoever!!

had heard various things about the food and rooms. Room was fantastic with very comfy bed and very clean. Wish the food was as good! Very disappointing restaurant, and prices on alcohol a bit much. Would advise staying but not eating.

Probably the worst meze it has ever been my misfortune to have served up to me. The main course dishes comprised one chicken wing, one chicken leg, two small kebabs and some Greek salad. When the waiter was asked where the rest was he replied that's it, what more do you expect.

Quite frankly the best curry i've had EVER! Went there for my Dad's birthday and was blown away. Thinking about it makes me want to move back to Plymouth!

I am a vegetarian which is a bit of a problem when eating out. However, although the vegetarian choices for "mains" was limited the mezze's menu is practically all vegetarian. The sizes are generous and after eating two I was about full and had a job getting through my main course. My choice of mezze were absolutely delicious and I can't wait to try some of the others next time we go. My dining partner is not a vegetarian so she went for the meat choices and was equally pleased. The house wine was good value and altogether the whole evening was thoroughly enjoyable and the Spanish waitress was charming and attentive. We highly recommend the Souk.

Very rude

I have eaten at this Restaurant twice in 6 weeks and cannot fault it. The decor, food and staff is excellent. They do the usual dishes but also some unusual regional dishes and Chef's specialities. The staff are smartly dressed and polite. Its has been busy both times I have been there which I am so pleased in seeing them doing well considering it is out of the City Centre.

love da food its so mouth watering and its a good price luv da staff as well

I was in Nibana Indian Restaurant over this Easter weekend. I was been told by my hotel that it’s nice restaurant. But I wouldn’t suggest any one to go there. As being an Indian I knew from my first bite that food is with too much of colouring and not right taste. On complain to Manager I wasn’t treated very nicely and been told that we made food here only for WHITE PEOPLE. That shock me a lot because I believe that we all should have right to have know the originality of what we eat. -Tzar

went to Fishbones Monday 6th April. server was very helpful, funny went out of er way to give a good customer service. The food was delicious, but plates so full we couldn't manage a dessert. we both had soup starters, served in a bread roll! i had lamb shank, meat fell off the bone, served with sweet potato mash, bit too rich so i left some. partner had mixed grill, was huge! they do a mixed grill for 2 people but quite frankly this was big enough for 2! and we are not small eaters. drinks bit dear, but overall great experience, would recommend

There are lots of indifferent and often pricey restaurants in Plymouth but the general standard and feel is so disappointing that it is often very difficult to work up the enthusiasm to eat out at all. platters is the exception that proves the rule. perfect and fresh fish virtually straight off the quay, simple excellent cooking, good value consistency and perhaps , just, most important at all a wonderful bustling friendly unpretentious environment where you cannot but feel instantly at home. No need for a tie (or collar) and nothing precious or grand. This is the perfect local good food cafe/bistro you could dream of.
