We arrived and was greeted with a lovely smile - it went down hill from there. Initially told that the only meal not available on the menu was the beef stroganoff. Upon ordering, I asked for a draft beer, to the reply of - “Sorry No Draft”. I changed my order to a polish bottled beer. My wife asked for a Malibu and Coke - reply “We don’t have!” We then shown the waitress Malibu on the drinks list and pointed to the bottle behind the bar. I ordered the Babushska Special - which was recommended and I had the response - “We don’t have!” At this point I asked for 5 more minutes to have another look at the menu and asked the waitress to start with the drinks. The waitress returned with the drinks and as my wife was looking at the bottled beer I’d ordered she noticed the beer was out of date! It was at this point I decided to abandon ship and head for the Thai place up the road! Such a shame as the vibe and atmosphere was nice. This is now of our restaurant list.

First time in my life I couldn't choose what to eat. Wanted a bit of everything. Lovely food, reminded me of home. Portions are big, but very delicious. Definitely going again. But it was a bit cold in there.

Went for an anniversary meal and really enjoyed our evening. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced and the service was excellent. Husband was driving so was happy to see they had non alcoholic beer which he said was delicious. Would definitely go again and recommend you try it also noticed they cater for children with a children’s menu. Excellent value for money

Fabulous tasty food, great value, lovely cosy ambiance, really friendly helpful staff, we had mushroom soup delicious, stroganoff and bigos which was a sauerkraut and sausage dish, and the best mash I have ever tasted! There was live music, just a lovely atmosphere. The fixed menu was fantastic value at £10.95for 3 courses (Mon to Fri) This is the best restaurant in Widnes!

Came back again and will keep coming back again to the best restaurant bar none in widnes. Tried different items of the menu this time and the smoked sausage soup and mix grill are to die for. Starters and mains for seven, two bottles of wine, 20 pints of excellent Lithuanian beer, coffees all round and a couple of whiskey chasers all for £200. This is amazing value in a lovely venue with staff who really go the extra mile. Can’t wait to get back here again.

Not really for me Visited here this week and although I cant say it was bad, wasnt my sort of place. Lovely surroundings and a massive place. I had mushroom soup for starter with rye bread which was lovely. The main pork stroganoff with chips (loads of them) was ok but ive had better. I think it was the little things that let it down. The table was just completely bare, no little touches. No condiments on any table.We ordered our drinks and although there were only 7 of us in there, us 4 and another 3 it must have took them 20 mins to deliver. Hope it gets better but heyho!!!

Fantastic food, decor and atmosphere. Great for a romantic evening or with family and friends. Love the decor. Food was lovely and great quality for a cheap price. Enjoyed the mix grill. Tasty red wine. The restaurant did look closed from the outside but it wasn't so don't be out off if you drive past! Give it a try!

I've been raving about this place. Wasn't intending to come here. It was just happenstance and now I'm dying to go back. The warm welcome, the smiling,friendly waiter, the interior and best of all, THE FOOD! Oh my God! We both had the chicken chorizo and it was by far the most enjoyable meal I've bought in such a long time. Every aspect of the meal was delicious: the home made coleslaw;the home made relish;the lettuce was so fresh; the sweet potatoe fries; the sour cream; the sweet chilli jam;the chicken and chorizo and it all came together in a glorious frenzy to tingle and delight your taste buds. A masterpiece. Okay, okay, but near enough. I nearly wept. I had the cherry bakewell blondie for dessert. I didn't think you could possibly get two equally fantastic courses but you can at this place! Another exquisite treat which, again, was homemade with such care and expertise. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

I decided today that I want something more exciting for lunch apart from my bland chicken sandwich and 2 apples. I came out of the office and walked across the bus way and saw a colleague of mine standing at the bus stop having some fresh air. He asked where I was going, so I told him that I was looking to go somewhere for a sandwich for lunch. He suggested Co-op or Iceland, but then he said that I should go into Monk's delicatessen. He said he had some great sandwiches from there and their ingredients were very fresh and the manager frequently gave him the end of the ham, saying that it would be too stringy to put through the slicer. I decided to go to Monk's on his recommendation. The staff were very warm znd welcoming and were very attentive when I mentioned my dairy intolerance. They ran me down the ingredients they used to fill the sandwiches and there were many meats, cheeses and extensive salad ingredients too. The staff told me what had milk products in and what didn't. I chose brown bread, 3 types salami, roast ham and all of the salad. I also selected an Oasis summer fruits bottle. It all came to £6.20. My colleague said that the costs would be comparable with Co-op or Iceland sandwiches. I thought on average the price was slightly more expensive. However, the price of the sandwich was only £5 and matched the freshness of ingredients and was very filling. The saltiness of the ham and the spiciness of the chorizo complimented each other with the freshness of the salad ingredients which cut through the smokiness of the meat. It was incredible value compared to the packaged sandwiches of the other local shops. The sandwich was 'fit' and 'to die for' as I described it back to my colleagues in the office. From the first bite to the last, the freshness of ingredients and the smokiness and spiciness of the meats were delightful and certainly did more than fill the void in my stomach that normally my bland chicken sandwich did. Incredibly friendly and attentive staff and beautiful hand made fresh sandwiches which I definitely would return if I needed a tasty sandwich for lunch. Thank you very much and keep on making!
