"I always wanted to try this place out: today was the day. And it was a wrong one! I ordered “pancakes with fruits, whipped cream and maple syrup”.. from the pic as you can see.. there are missing half of the ingredients and those balls.. were not pancakes at all. Did you mean to sell “mini pancakes?” Fine. But those were round, not fluffy, the though was without taste ... I was served without cutlery. I waited a while, but nothing. So I had to go and wait at the till to ask for them. When the waiter came over to the table with cutlery and (10’ later) with my partner order.. pancakes as well.. there were missing ingredients. Then I asked for them: they brought me a weird cream which was not whipped.. and they told me the boss went out cause the maple syrup was finished.. pancakes without syrup!! now. You really don’t know how to serve clients young lady. It is your responsibility to check if all the ingredients are available at the time your Client order any item written in the menu. if they are not, it’s fine, don’t get me wrong, but made the client aware and don’t let them pay in advance because we could have changed our mind and order something else. Or offer a discount or another solution. Why Have I paid full price if you brought me half of my order? Also poor quantity of fruits: from the pics you can see that it was only 1 strawberry and less than a half banana. Try to increase the fruit portion in view of lack of other ingredients as to compensate. And please: do apologies! It may not be your mistake, but there is you behind the till and you are serving. You had a smiling face and you welcomed us well and I thank you for that. That’s why I am giving 2 stars only. The other three are missing due to lack of customer service! I am quite Disappointed!"

"Wow, wow, wow! Based just off Richmond high street, this boutique family run Italian deli takes you back to the heart of Sicily with its freshly made pasta's and chunky panini's. Run by a husband and wife, we got talking while looking at the options available and went down to see their kitchen (my family has been in the catering industry for decades) to a laboratory of Italian goodness. Deborah arrives at the shop before most have opened their eyes and creates half a dozen fresh pasta dishes covering different palates on a daily basis.... the definition of taking pride in your work. If some popular dishes are going fast, she even makes them again same day! Some of the dishes on offer the day we visited included: Spicy beef gnocchi (To DIE for) Spaghetti chilli garlic (options of king prawns or escalope's to accompany) Pastticho (Long tubed macaroni with a mix of cheeses and cream as a pasta bake with a bed of mince meat) Black Spaghetti Traditional Bolognese and Pomodoro There is also fresh options for you carnivores! Selections of Italian meats, sausages, salami's etc that can be combined with ciabatta's and mozzarella for a serious Panini.... they are very generous on portion sizes as well! Given it's location this spot is right for any occasion: Dates, quick meals, takeaways to sit in the park etc, it covers all the bases.... oh, and they're one of the few restaurants who don't ask you for your kidney as payment! I use this place as HQ if I am ever visiting Twickenham for an England game, as does ex world cup winner Mr Dallaglio (better than Twickenham hospitality apparently). Couldn't recommend this place highly enough, you will not be disappointed."

"This time last year I enjoyed lunch on the Golden Hind which is Great Western Railway 's flagship inter-city train service between London and Plymouth, and I didn 't think that the experience of tucking into a four-course meal with wine whilst the verdant countryside of Somerset and Devon whizzed past the picture window at 100mph could be improved upon in any way. Earlier this evening I was travelling by rail from Portsmouth to Swansea via Reading. In spite of the fact that GWR 's journey planner made no reference whatsoever to a Pullman Restaurant on the Red Dragon train from Paddington to Carmarthen, and the station announcements at Reading made no mention of one either, there were indeed catering facilities tucked away in the rearmost First Class carriage of this ten-coach Hitachi InterCity Express train. The Pullman Dining crew welcomed me on board with open arms, carrying my heavy holdall and stowing it away between the seat backs, before finding me a table for one and taking my dinner order. Which was pretty good considering that I was travelling on a Railcard-discounted Standard APEX ticket! I opted for the Ham Hock Terrine (GBP 6:00) as the Starter, Chicken Breast with Sage Stuffing (GBP 27:50) as the Main Course, Chocolate Torte with Black Cherries in Kirsch (GBP 6:00) as the Desert and a tasty GBP 6:00 Welsh Cheeseboard with Pear Chutney (plus a glass of Port for a very reasonable GBP 5:50) for Afters. Chilled mineral water and hot coffee were complimentary and unlimited. I cannot fault the attentive service offered by Vikki, my Waitress, whilst the Chicken Breast on a bed of Braised Artichoke was cooked to perfection by a Chef working under pressure in a cramped galley. It 's such a shame that nine of the eighteen seats in the Restaurant Car remained empty throughout the near three hour journey to Swansea/Abertawe. The half-bottle of Claret which went so well with three out of my four courses was a snip at GBP 15 whilst the only thing missing from a wine list which would not have disgraced the dining room of a top London Gentleman 's Club was either a fine Sauternes or an elegant Barsac to go with my Chocolate Torte. Pullman Dining (along with the Night Riviera Sleeper train) is one of the two jewels in Great Western Railway 's increasingly tarnished crown and it 's a shame that it 's not offered on other services, such as the Cathedrals Express from London to Worcester and Hereford via Oxford. Although I hesitate to give out what should be confidential information, for anyone travelling on a Standard (Class) ticket, it 's a ridiculously cheap way of getting a First Class upgrade at peak travel times on journeys between south Devon/South Wales and London!"

"Excellent food, freshly made. This is the main feature of this restaurant. We visited today the Six restaurant within the King's Arms Hotel with my family and we all have been extremely impressed with the food. We have tried several different dishes and we could not find anything at all that was anything but perfect. Starting from the bread, freshly made served with an excellent butter, ending with the ice-cream, rich and silky, everything was well above our expectations. We shared a local charcuterie board which was lovely , especially the coppa. I had corzetti for started and my wife the scotch egg. Both dishes were perfectly executed and cooked on point. The scotch egg with the running yolk and perfectly fried was excellent. The corzetti were rich and tasty, nicely al dente and the broad beens were nice and sweet cutting the richness of the dish. We also tried the agnolotti, which were just perfect. The rich flavour of the goat cheese was well balanced by the fresh cherry tomatoes and the light broth. These are definitely a MUST ! I had the Saffron risotto and my wife went for the fish and chips. The risotto was very uncommon to find) perfectly cooked with the mantecatura executed to perfection. It was well balanced on the flavour and the saffron aromatic note was not hidden by any other flavour. Just the cheese and butter to complete but not overtaking the main aroma. Our son had a burger, nice and juicy and served with a freshly made brioche bun. Even if it was from the kids menu it showed that attention and care were put also for the children food, exactly as it was for the adults. The ice-cream to finish was delicious. Rich and silky. The service was warm, friendly and precise. We had a bottle Gavi and it was extremely nice. Definitely a place that we will visit again in the future and that would recommend to anyone to visit."
