"We held our wedding reception at The Kite and it was an exceptional day! We wanted a venue that would cater to our needs and Ben and his team were amazing to work with. They listened to our ideas, provided valuable guidance, and made sure everything was perfect. Ben was always available to answer our questions and made the lead up to our big day stress-free. On the day itself, the attention to detail was outstanding. The food was delicious, the staff were wonderful, and they took care of everything so we could truly enjoy our wedding day. The Kite exceeded our expectations, providing us with a relaxed atmosphere, amazing food, and a fantastic party. Our guests couldn't stop praising the staff, food, and venue. Thank you to Ben, Jess, Olly, Henry, and the rest of the team for giving us the perfect day. We wish we could do it all over again!"

"So a couple of weeks ago we ordered a takeaway from Piato restaurant in Baldock. 3 chicken souvlaki, 12.95 each, so 38.85 in total. One of the chicken meals was undercooked with pink/blood running through, so could not be eaten. All 3 meals came with a salad in a box and all 3 salads were brown . Andy called the manager and was very respectful and pointed out how surprised we were as we have eaten many times at Piato's and have never had a bad meal. The manager said he was sorry and he will cook the chicken longer next time and he insisted that the brown on the salad was due to the dressing that was put on the salad. He told Andy he was sorry and when we next order, he will do something for us to make amends. Today Andy called to order 3 more meals and was told we could have a 10% discount 3.80. Andy said that that offer was ridiculous as one whole meal last time was inedible, the manager would then only offer 15% 5.82. Off the order. Andy was told that they were not offering any more than that. So we cancelled the order and will never eat in Piato's again. What a joke and such a shame what poor customer service from what we thought was a quality restaurant. Check your chicken folks!!!"

"The decor and vibe of this place was the most appealing. The food an anti climax (desserts by far were the best) Starter it was supposed to be a king prawn cocktail, they said they were out of king prawns but will instead give me a huge portion of little prawns. The portion was average and starter basic therefore overpriced for what I was given. Mains crab linguine. If you like garlic then this dish is for you. The crab was flaked but barely visible and I could hardly taste it especially with the overpowering garlic. Friends had pork belly rib which was extremely tasty, full of flavour and the meat was tender Dessert the fried salted caramel ice cream special was amazing. And the pavlova was perfectly chewy and soft. Desserts a winner Price per person: £60–70 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Maple Glazed Pork Belly"

"I attended the restaurant with my partner as it appeared a nice place to eat from the outside. To be honest the choice of food was not really appealing but we were already there so though we would go ahead and order. I chose chicken and my partner ordered steak and chips. The chicken did taste good with the sauce, however I asked for an alternative to mushroom, and noticed that they did not remove it completely. The green beans was a nice alternative but the meal was not filling so it was just chicken in sauce and green beans. The steak had all the flavour but as it was not tender but chewy it left my partner feeling very disappointed. Desert Bramley Apple Crumble with nuts and Ice Cream So there was a lot of sauce that taste like maple syrup (very sweet), could not see or taste any apples and as for the crumble it seemed as if they took a table spoon of crumble and sprinkled over the sauce and called it 'Apple crumble '. To top it all we felt it was over priced. The only one positive I would like to report is the service, Ellie was very professional and made us feel very much at home."

"We were not prepared for the flavour journey Kazoku we're taking us on. Beautiful, simply. Divine. Magical. A journey through taste that we haven't experienced before. The plum wine, the serving of the food in intervals, the clinical knowledge the staff had of the food. We would like to personally commend the chefs for allowing us to try their food. We will be back, we would book a hotel just to visit again. Nothing more needs to be said, visit and divulge into what can only be described as brilliant. Congratulations, phenomenal. Thank you."
