Recently stayed at a Marriott hotel in Cardiff which was very pleasant but the breakfast experience was excellent. I am coeliac and asked Paula to help me with gluten free options. She was amazing and talked me through all the options and made sure I had everything I needed. She did it in a friendly way making me completely confident in what I was ordering. She went the extra mile. Paula is a real asset. Thank you Paula.

Sunday lunch; food very mediocre. Atmosphere is weird in restaurant. Needs a revamp! Food not the best we've had in Cardiff for a long time. Bland food with minimal portions. Limited veg but very hard ( understand it a personally choice) .Requested extra gravy, horseradish , mustard etc several times etc as lack of were giving out on first serving even second then third request. Desert portion was pointless! 5 people with less than 2 courses each with 2 cheap bottles of plonk over £260. Sorry had much pleasurable food and value elsewhere.

We had the sea bass risotto, and haddock and chips, with goats cheese and vol-au-vent starters. Really tasty, plenty of food, beautifully presented. Browns is an experience that’s well worth seeking out, and special thanks to Emily and the staff for looking after us.

Emily, was really good with recommendations and making sure we were well looked after throughout. Went with a couple of friends for a Sunday roast, good food and the sourdough was particularly lovely. A member of staff was playing the piano of a cover of a few pop songs, which brought a really nice atmosphere to the place.

Emily was a very friendly and attentive server. Nice environment, not too busy but had an atmosphere, good menu, and food was hot, fresh, and tasty. Eating out is becoming more expensive but standards seem to have slipped in many places - so it was refreshing to have a good experience that felt worth it.

Shout out to Sharon from Brown’s Restaurant, who provide room service at Marriott, Cardiff. A breakfast tray was turned into a surprise birthday celebration complete with the singing of happy birthday and a complimentary candle lit muffin!

University graduation meal .. booked in advance .. even gave the meal plan 4 days before to them.. lovely looking restaurant but staff with no people skills .. all top show.. our starters were all wrong .. everything coming out different times.. not once did the waitress even smile or ask how our meal was.. it’s not high end quality at all.. terribly priced for that kind of experience .. tiny portions.. waited for ages with us having to go through everything again within was exhausting..it’s a con all because a fancy piano is at the front and it looks posh.. hungry horse pubs / Nando’s / Toby/hickory’s smokehouse serve better quality and have better organised staff !!!

We came here Monday for a graduation meal and pre booked with deposits and sent a food order over 4 days before. A very kippers and curtains setting.. waitresses were very moody and no personality ..no one looked happy who worked here..not once were any of us asked if our meals were ok or smiled at us….or if we wanted any sauces or even malt vinegar . The food was not timed..coming out the kitchen whenever. the steak was very poor quality for £36 . The fish was probably the best out of all the meals but served with a tablespoon amount of peas .. staff just kept giving dirty looks and tutting when we questioned why our food orders were wrong.. one glass of coke had been served in a dirty glass . had the cheek to put £70 service charge on for an experience like that!! It’s not high end quality food .. it’s the setting you’re paying for and decor and top show!In the end a quite loud aggressive manager with long dark hair came and said they needed the table as we had been too long!!!

For lunch we had a half lobster and the prawn and Devon crab linguini. Finished off with the strawberry meringue sundae which was a decadent feast of flavour.

I've visited Browns twice now in Cardiff, as I work for M&B and have done for serveral years and are always interested to see what other brands and locations are like. We first came as a surprise to celebrate my mother's birthday back in March and everyone loved it. The food did not disppoint. As I was the organiser and live in London, the team were really great in liaising with me on getting cakes and balloons delivered and really took the stress out of planning, which was a huge huge help. Most of the guests were vegetarian and the options though limited were delishious and so we returned last week with my mum, my little brother and my friend. The food again was amazing... we had a great time and our server Scott, was brilliant, he was really warm and welcoming and went above and beyond to tend to your needs or otherwise my very fussy little brother's needs. He was patient, attentive and seemed that no request was too much. Scott really added to the great time we had at Browns! And so thank you to the Browns Cardiff team but most of all Scott! Thanks. See you guys again next time I'm back in Wales. P.s. my mother wanted to leave a review for Scott too but you know how it is with a certain generation unable to use technology so think of this as two good reviews instead on one. :)

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this wonderful restaurant and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. Not only was the food delicious, but the service provided by the server was outstanding. When I reviewed the menu I had a particular dish in mind that I wanted to try. Unfortunately, it was not available that day. However, the server, Tasha, went above and beyond to recommend an alternative dish that I might enjoy. She took the time to understand my preferences and suggested a similar dish that turned out to be absolutely delightful. Throughout the meal, Tasha was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. She provided detailed descriptions of the menu items and offered her recommendations based on her expertise. Her genuine enthusiasm for the food and their willingness to accommodate my preferences made the dining experience truly enjoyable. Not only did Tasha provide excellent service, but she also demonstrated exceptional professionalism and attention to detail. She ensured that my dining experience was seamless and enjoyable from start to finish. Her warm and friendly demeanor made me feel welcomed and valued as a customer. I highly recommend both Browns restaurant and the exceptional service provided by Tasha. The combination of delicious food and outstanding service creates a truly memorable dining experience. Whether you're looking for a delicious meal or a server who will go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction, Browns Cardiff is the place to go.
