"Lovely meal, excellent staff but had to wait too long for our table, arrived at 1945 for our 2000 booking, we waited 15 minutes at the bar for a drink as previous customers wanted cocktails and it was 2115 before we were seated, the starter arrived pretty quickly but had to wait ages for our main course, just before 2200 and our dessert arrived at 2235. I appreciate that it was a Saturday evening but it was a birthday celebration. We will visit again, just not on a Saturday."

"Dinner We travelled to the area to attend my Brothers Wedding. We arrived on Friday afternoon with Dinner booked for 6:30pm that evening. We booked the Hotel based on the reviews on the Restaurant. We thought we would travel down a night early to enjoy a lovely date night at the highly rated Restaurant. The Hotel is phenomenal and we do not have a single bad word to say about both the amenities and staff of the Hotel excellent! We arrived at the San Pietro restaurant at 6:30pm for Dinner and were seated at our table. Upon arrival, our table was hounded by flies and mosquitoes. My Husband was bitten on the face by a mosquito leading to a welt developing on his face. Obviously, we cannot expect the staff to control the ecosystem, but the volume of flying creatures was certainly alarming. After ordering, we waited an hour for any food to arrive, while other tables had had several courses brought out and cleared away in this time frame. Just before the food arrived, we had finished our bottle of wine, and my Husband was naturally quite frustrated, so got up and spoke with a lovely staff member and addressed both the flies/ mosquitoes and our long wait on food. We were moved across the restaurant to another table and our food was brought out. Again, this is after an hour of waiting for our food. The food was okay. We ordered our dessert, which came out in a timely manner, ate, and left after over 2hrs of being inside the restaurant. Breakfast Again, another disappointing experience. We had upgraded to the cooked breakfast to prepare us for a long day at the Wedding. You have to pre order, and confirm a time slot to attend. We chose 9am. We were made that if we wished to cancel the cooked breakfast, it must be well in advance of our time slot we assumed this would be because the food would be ready for our appointment slot or soon after and therefore would be a waste of food to cancel too close to the appointed time slot. We arrived at 9am sharp, were not greeted for a little while, then we’re just told to take a seat at any table and take anything we’d like from the continental breakfast buffet. The buffet 3 bowels of fruit, some cereal, and some warm yogurt. We sat down for breakfast at the same time as another Gentleman also staying in the hotel. We again waited, and waited, and waited for our cooked breakfast.. The Gentleman who sat at the exact same time as us, was served his cooked food, ate, and left before our food even came out. After 45 minutes, our food arrived. Cold eggs, solid and inedible bacon, and the rest was barely warm. The food looked and tasted like it had been cooked hours earlier, and had been sat under a hot lamp for the rest of the morning. While we were attempting to eat our Breakfast, a member of the staff (we assumed one of the Chefs) was loudly selling his restaurant decorations to a group of other diners directly behind our table. They were pointing out decorations they wanted from the restaurant, one of which was a lamp located on the windowsill directly behind my Husband. The guests leaned over him to admire this, while we were eating the team member then fetched a new one from his stores for them. Obviously, the team/ staff cannot be responsible for other guests’ actions, however, we were also paying guests at both the restaurant and hotel and feel the team member who was conducting his business in breakfast restaurant should have directed the guests away from tables eating to have this interaction. Overall, extremely disappointing and not worth the hundreds of pounds we spent on the Restaurant. We paid, because we are honest and honourable people, and chose to book a table. We also cash tipped our server at Dinner, on top of the 10% service charge, because he did a fantastic job and was extremely polite and courteous. Your servers should not be subjected to complaints which have occurred due to issues out of their control which is why we made comments politely at the time, and ensured our server knew we were extremely happy with his service"

"This has always been one of our favourite Italian restaurants in the Scunthorpe area for many years. We knew Coni Carlos were selling up we’re saddened to think of losing this fantastic dining experience. But to our amazement the new owners have not disappointed us, in fact they have excelled in their new venture! On arrival we were warmly greeted and seated quickly. We opted for a bottle of Sauvignon blanc totally delicious. Crab cakes for me goats cheese fritter for my wife of 32 years Both were to die for, fresh flavoursome. Having realised the new owners are Turkish we were pleased to try their home additions to the specials board! My main was mixed Turkish skewers, my wife had the monkfish. Nice to know the bulk of their staff are from the previous owners too! Having delighted our way through the mains we finished the wine chatted a while before deciding on a pudding excited to see they still did the Amereto slices we both opted for them. Mine with ice cream, the othe with cream…….OMG right choice too! As the restaurant slowly cleared of diners we found ourselves the last to leave, giving us a chance to find a little more about the new owners, Murat Emir, what great new hosts for this local gem of a restaurant, they asked our opinion on the food service, both were fantastic we cannot wait to return next weekend to try their lunchtime menus. Great work, looking forward to trying more Turkish treats along with the Italian choices."

"Service ok and food came promptly which wasn't a surprise as there were only 2 tables in including ours at the time of ordering. Starter for me was lamb tikka the lamb was lovely. The korma I had was standard but what was disappointing was the chips which were either cooked in very strong oil or oil that had not been changed for some time. Apart from the chips not too bad an evening out. Finally I know it's been over 7 months since I last went out for an Indian but thought £5.98 for 2 poppadoms and the pickle tray was a bit steep!"

"because of the lock-off, our usual fishing store remained closed. scalinis had been recommended to us a few times, so decided to try it. tried squirting, chips and exfoliating special. phoned at 4.30 and said it would be delivered from 6.15 as very...busy arrived at 6.15 packed in thick paper bag, each meal in separate carton, still remarkably hot. very tasty, best fish and chips for a long time. reasonable price only 1 delivery. is recommended again and well."
