Funki Griller Steak & Seafood Grillhouse and Cocktail Bar in Bournemouth

Went into bar area staff were polite and welcoming price good compared to other bars in area

Nice Vibe...starter and steak were good. However, I may have ordered the wrong cut of meat. Overall it was okay.

My husband and I shared the platter of which we have had a few times prior now - however this time it was vile - the only way i can describe it is as a plate of gristle. Only to informed that is how the meat should be! I don’t think so. The lamb was fatty and mostly gristle the sirloin was also mostly gristle - no decent meat - the ribs were burnt and I didn’t even attempt the chicken.

Overall a good experience, just one preference rather than a criticism on the food side, the rack of BBQ ribs was pretty much the same as other restaurants we have eaten at in the past. If you are familiar with the Hussar Grill in Rondebosch, Cape Town, now owned by Spur Group, their ribs are full racks, they provide full length ribs. In UK restaurants they seem to be cut in half length ways passing as a full rack. Also, Hussar Grill par boil their ribs for 20 minutes in their 'Jungle Juice' marinade, which makes them beautifully tender, then they are char-grilled on the fire before serving (the meat almost falls off the bone). I have a copy somewhere I must dig out, of the jungle juice recipe I obtained in South Africa through a connection and would be happy to share it if you are interested. Great restaurant otherwise generally, many thanks for a lovely evening.

Absolutely wonderful restaurant. Staff could not have been friendlier, their customer service was second to none. Food was truly wonderful and all cooked exactly how we like it. We will 100% visit again and recommend to all.

We recently visited Funki Griller in Bournemouth, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience from start to finish. Upon arrival, we were asked to wait in the bar area so they could "prepare a table," even though the restaurant was nearly empty, with only two other small groups present. After a 15-minute wait, we were finally seated at a table that had been ready well before we arrived. The service was incredibly slow. It took another 15 minutes before anyone came over to take our drink order, despite the restaurant being almost empty. This set the tone for the rest of our evening. Our starters were mediocre at best. The scallops were drenched in oil, which ruined any flavor they might have had. When it came to the main course, the disappointment only deepened. The Rib Eye steak was comparable to a Wetherspoons flash steak had - cheap quality meat that tasted as if it had been deep-fried or drenched in oil before grilling. The chips, though cooked well, had a stale taste, likely from fryer oil that hadn’t been changed in ages. The side salad we ordered looked and tasted like someone had thrown up on it. The “Peppercorn Sauce” was just gravy and pepper corns. The most concerning part of the evening was the kitchen’s hygiene. There’s a live stream of the kitchen displayed in the restaurant, and we noticed staff preparing raw seafood, steak, and side dishes without cleaning the work surfaces between. The grill looked filthy and appeared as if it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. Given these serious hygiene issues, I’ll be reporting them to the local health authorities. Overall, our experience at Funki Griller was well below any reasonable expectation. Very Poor service, subpar food, and concerning cleanliness issues. To add insult to injury, the bill came to an astonishing £120, which felt diabolical considering the low quality of food, slow service, and poor taste. For what we paid, we expected a far higher standard. This experience left us feeling completely ripped off. Funki Griller was an absolute letdown.

Great food, loved having the choice of a jacket potato and coleslaw with my steak. Steak was cooked to perfection. Friendly service too. Only thing that let it down was an overriding smell, maybe air freshener?, which was awful.

Excellent food, and service. ( once we got our heads round the menu!) Staff very helpful.

Found this restaurant during a weekend break in Bournemouth and what a find, forget Miller and Carter and try this place. Its buzzing and has a very happy feel. We had x2 steaks on offer and a few pints . A fantastic place to eat

Absolutely outstanding roast dinner. The meat was so tender and tasty the vegetables were amazing. Roast potatoes were crispy and the gravy was to die for highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing, staff are polite and welcoming, food was perfect in every way and believe food is very reasonable for what you pay

A lovely restaurant, great service and gorgeous food. Would totally recommend for a special occasion

Good food but not great food. I would recommend visiting as the steak is good and service also good. I was greeted quickly on arrival, after waiting for a few minutes ordered my drink and food. 21oz Sirloin - ordered medium rare and it came perfectly cooked and well presented. Served with a tiny portion of chips and with a large steak I was left wanting more and was still a little hungry. I ordered a Jack Daniel’s sauce to accompany the steak but it tasted like a just standard bottled sauce decanted into a jug rather than a home made sauce like I was expecting. At £36 for the steak plus £3.95 for the sauce I felt it didn’t represent good value. However the steak was good. Fresh Passion Fruit Cheesecake: nice enough but appeared to be more ‘fresh’ from the freezer than fresh from the chef (maybe I’m wrong?) Don’t misinterpret me, the meal was lovely and I enjoyed the main course and dessert but at the prices charged I would expect a little more effort, and a few more chips. Still good and so would still recommend. Thank you :)

OMW! Okay so hear me out... I hate a Sunday roast at a pub. The meat is too dry, the gravy is too runny and it's just not good. But today... Today I have found THE perfect Sunday roast Funki Griller The meat is tender, the portion generous and the vegetables perfectly cooked. It is to die for! Compliment to the chef! I now need a wheelbarrow to get me home 😂🤣😂🤣

Absolutely amazing food, beautiful restaurant and friendky staff. My husband and his friend had a steak here on Saturday and raved so much we booked for the following day for the roast and omg it didn't dissapoint. I would recommend this restaurant you really need to try this place AMAZING

Best steak in town hands down!!!

Funki griller were at the top of the orchid hotel recommendation list. We trusted them and tried this place. We are glad we did, they really know their job. I can say it was the best steak we have ever eaten. Watching the chef is also a plus! You watch how they prepare your meal for you.

Great fun, great food and great service, what else can you ask for? Doesn't look much from the outside but you won't be disappointed! And there's a special surprise in the toilets 🚻

Fantastic service, Great steak and some free entertainment thrown in for good measure 😎👍

Very disappointed as this restaurant was recommended to us 4 out of 6 of our steaks were either cold , raw or inedible When we complained we were asked if we would like a free round of drinks to compensate on the condition we paid for the inedible steak …… Sorry I won’t be returning

Fantastic Steaks, Wonderfully cooked, lovely restaurant, definitely get yourself there, Quite expensive but the quality of the food is top notch

Lovely Grill house, friendly staff, fast service and lovely food. Very impressed

The chef here is a genius the steak is cooked to perfection and the blue cheese salad is amazing 👍 and onion rings massive in fresh batter so good on the whole this place is worth visiting 100%

Great food, great service… we did the ribeye deal at @£35 for two ribeyes and chips… w cheese sauce was lovely as were the Mac and cheese.. Highly recommended..

Top marks, visited this place recently, in a group of 15 people. The service was superb, it was quick efficient and polite. The food was to die for, I didn't here one bad comment from anyone. I also thought the portion sizes were good,and the prices very reasonable. 👏👏keep up the good work.

A fantastic welcoming and amazing service and food, we were a group of 15 which we had no trouble in booking a large table for all. We were met as we arrived and the welcome was warm and friendly, all bar one person ordered steaks which arrived for everyone 20 minutes after the orders were place, everyone’s steaks were cooked to perfection with amazing flavour, the sides were equally amazing, all in all we all said we would definitely be booking again on our next trip to Bournemouth. My only regret is that there isn’t a Funki Griller restaurant in my home town Bristol as I would be eating there all the time. In closing, great service, fantastic stake and great value

Fabulous evening at Funki Griller. 10/10 for service, food and ambience. Michaela was great. Highly recommended.

Brilliant restaurant 5☆ all round. Great food. Lovely staff. Even a bit of live music thrown in.

Steak didn't impress me particularly, felt like I paid £80 for two heads for a somewhat average dining experience

Excellent food and service we are regulars and cannot fault the food or service every time. Shout out tonight to Cameron who went above and beyond but all staff were amazing as ever thanks guys

I can only say, this place restored our faith in steak... amazing... Staff were so polite and informative and helpful... I loved it. Steak was cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and delicious:0)

Great little place. Lovely steak meal. Friendly stafd

We had an amazing experience at Funky Griller today! Our party of 12 was welcomed with such warmth and friendliness from the staff—they were incredibly accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. Despite the large group, the service was impeccable, and we never felt rushed. Now, onto the steak—it was simply incredible! Cooked to perfection, full of flavor, and hands down one of the best steaks we’ve had in a long time. Every bite was a delight. If you’re a steak lover, this place is a must-visit. Thank you, Funky Griller, for making our gathering so special. We’ll definitely be back!

Just a short walk from the pier this steak house is well placed, quite large and fairly well appointed if you can overlook the somewhat kitsch Gorilla theme. The staff were very friendly but not always timely. Despite some tasty starters the mains of three of the four in our group arrived close to cold. My medium/well fillet was of low quality and was ruined by being massively overcooked. For some strange reason for everything over medium they butterfly the steak. The staff did offer an alternative cut but we didn't have time to wait and they made no adjustment to the £220 bill. I really wanted to like this place and had persuaded my friends to go but left very dissapointed

Brilliant service and even better food. If youre in the area, its a must

We arrived for a friends bday meal, and I was greeted by a friendly member of staff called Mikayla, who helped me tremendously by helping me put up bunting before my friend got there, and then also becoming our waitress, she was superb. The food was sublime, every one at the dinner table was satisfied completely and was definitely interested in going back. Me and one friend shared the 2 for 10oz ribeye steak deal for £35, which was the best choice we made. The birthday boy and girlfriend had the mixed grill which came to £75, and they actually said it would have suited 3 people instead of just the two of them. Finally, to sum up, it was all tasty, the vibe was quiet with great karaoke music in the background. WOULD definitely dine again.

The food was excellent and the service was amazing, we had a fantastic meal. Thank you Funki Griller 😀

Visited here on Saturday, beautiful food and front of house were fantastic, friendly, welcoming and good at their job, exactly what front of house should be! Will 100% be returning here to see these nice people when I’m back in Bournemouth! Reece

Absolutely amazing food. We found this place last year on the hunt for steak whilst staying jn Bournemouth. And now whenever we fancy a nice steak we book a trip to Bournemouth. We had the sharing platter tonight for the first time and that's highly recommended but only if you're going to go back to your room and chill afterwards as you won't be able to move!! Fab friendly service every time we've been and will be back again soon.

Amazing food, lovely servers. Best piece of steak I have ever eaten. Cooked perfectly x (T-bone was amazing)

I cannot recommend this place enough. We were treated splendidly and we happily spent some money in here. The food and drinks are definitely in the upper medium price range. However it’s absolutely worth it. The meet was absolutely gorgeous, tender and finely spiced. The atmosphere is of an American diner however successfully mixed with a British traditional flavour. I definitely recommend this place if you are looking to treat yourself to a non-pretentious but flavoursome evening.

Brilliant food the steak was amazing, definitely recommend

We spent a few days in Bournemouth and came across the best burger we’ve had in a long time! Staff were great and attentive with food served in good time, kitchen/chef view camera was a nice touch!

Went Sunday evening at 1800hrs Had 2x ribeye meals £35 and Mac cheese n bacon extra side just for me And Misses had the chicken burger in brioche bun Banging steak’s banging chicken burger

Lovely food and staff!.would go again!

We ate out here whilst on holiday recently and it was absolutely delicious! Great service and nice cocktails. Highly recommend if you want a decent steak. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for and we had 3 courses and drinks.

Food was amazing , worth the price .

Oh my goodness. I was on Friday 9th of August around 5pm. The only reason we came here is because our hotel recommend us to trying. We did we was 4 people we pay 160.00 pounds for a dry burger 🍔 my partner ordered he only eat the chips frozen of course and same of the burger. The another friends ordered megasaurus steak 20oz they ordered l one medium and the another medium well done. Both steak was well done. One of my friend complained. As to speak with the manager first time he didn't coming out he eventually he came out. He no want to change the steak was over cooked refused to replace the steak after long argument he decided to change the steak. About the ordere of my partner literally. I would like a explanation how the burger was so dry he was he was absolutely terrible bad. The explanation he gave was absolutely ridiculous. My own conclusion was the have the burger precooked. We pay for the burger 17.00 pound was inedible. I will leave zero stars if I could! Manager was rude, argumentative. I think the chef needs to go back to school to learn how to cook and they manager needs to be more honest and work harder because he was very happy to take the money but no Responsibility for terrible meals he delivers, plus they said they chips was homemade. They was no home made was frozen ships. My absolutely opinion they cost to eat in this restaurant is to Spencer. They need to work harder to deliver better food than I expected for the money we pay. I'm happy to pay more if the food is good. But this wasn't I'm very disappointed with the food and the manager. I need to say thank to the waitress for being so helpful. They no deserve it to be honest they need too take all the disappointed of the customer because they manager can't bother to get out and speak with the unhappy costumes Complain. Sadly we won't be returning.

We really had a very good meal here. I had fish (seabass) which was extremely good and my husband's steak was exactly as ordered. And the side dishes (e.g. the green vegetables) were also very, very tasty. We can only recommend the restaurant.

We had dinner in your premises (Bournemouth) Saturday 27th July & was part of a group of 16 people. Until the very end we actually had a very good experience throughout the evening, The food was great & the service we received from the couple of waitresses was good. By the very end of the meal & following payment (of which we needed to do individually due to different values in terms of orders from every person) we were told from the waitress we had paid the bill successfully & in the end was just £16 shy in terms of the optional service charge. A member of the group asked that if he paid £20 would it be possible for everyone in our party to receive a shot of Limoncello following the large amount of money we spent on the night. Circa £900-£950. The waitress agreed to fulfil the request, So she took the £20 & went away. When she returned, she gave us 1 shot of Limoncello only & then informed us that she was unable to fulfil the request of a shot for each person as it wasn’t within their policy & now she wouldn’t be able to give us the £20 back as the tills are closed. As you can imagine that response seemed a little strange as the right thing to have done would be to have informed us that in the end the request couldn’t be fulfilled & instead offer to give us back the £20. So at this point if she couldn’t fulfil what we asked for we then asked her could we have our £20 back? Following this a female colleague approached our table (I do not know her name, This was the first time we had interacted with her all evening, She wore glasses & I am assuming was the duty manager) Came over which such a disappointing attitude & professionalism. She was practically shouting at us & telling us we had been here all night, She has been here since 2-3pm of that day & it was time for us all to go. (She was speaking to us as if we had been causing trouble all evening & had previously asked us to leave of which she hadn’t?) We explained we were waiting for our £20 back, She went away & returned with the £20 then asked us all to leave as the bar is closed & we had been there all night (Bear in mind we only sat down at 20:45 & had not once been given notice of time to leave the restaurant) An Incredibly rude behaviour from what I assume was the duty manager? At this stage, We all got up & started to walk out the door, One by one she stood near the exit repeatedly saying “goodbye & see you later” in a very sarcastic tone. A member of our group turned to her & said we will be leaving a review on this & she responded to say “Great, Please do that & make sure you mention my name, I cant wait”… It is clear as day, There was some mis-communication between the waitress & this lady as we were a very respectful group all night & were only asking for our £20 back as what we were told would happen did not. She must have had the impression we were being difficult & came over with the intention to kick us out which was shocking. I work within the hospitality industry myself, The lack of professionalism she showed in that moment & the lack of communication skills was very disappointing. All she had to do was return the £20 & apologise for the misunderstanding previously & say they could not uphold the request for a shot per person. Instead, we were basically shouted at & asked to leave with no notice at all. Overall, Food was great, The service from our waitress throughout the evening was good (though a number of human errors did happen, they got rectified) However, the female colleague/duty manager at the end was incredibly disappointing & unfortunately she needs to learn from this experience & understand how to speak to people & handle situations professionally. I’m afraid though the food was great (please pass this one to your chefs) the disappointing interaction with your staff member at the end was put all of us off re-visiting your premises again. We all live local to Bournemouth & had intended to visit with our families over the coming months which now will not be the case.

One of my favorite restaurants, great steaks, sea bass is also lovely.

Cold steak burger dry and not tasty

First time eating at Funki Griller this evening and we weren't disappointed. The steaks tasted absolutely amazing ! Everything was 5* especially our waiter, Harry. He really was great and a real asset to the restaurant. We will definitely be back again next time we are in Bournemouth.

Very bad!!!! Worst food experience ever!!! The food was completely burned!! The staff was too bad!! Poor service!!!! Total trash!!! When complained about food gave no reaction!!!! Waste of money. Don’t go there 👎

A MUST do if you're in the area. We're a foodie family and we left left happy and satisfied! Absolutely fantastic food and service. The best steak we've had (and we've had a lot as a family) Adults ordered the surf and turf and kids ordered burgers (kids said it was the best burger they've ever had) Dessert didn't disappoint, coffee creme brulee (a first, and my husband has had a lot of creme brulees, and we had the chocolate brownie, which was moist and delicious. Wi e menu great AND my beer was served with an ice cold glass. Definitely will revisit. Enjoy!

They have really great steaks there👍

Great place for some filing grub, lovely quirky atmosphere, friendly staff

Excellent service all round 👍 staff very friendly made sure you was looked after nothing was to much great atmosphere and it’s also lovely to see the owners hands on two 😁

Amazing steak. Very tasty and good service.

We enoyed a delicious meal celebrating our son's 16th birthday. We enjoyed it all, steak, grilled chicken & lamb chops, salad, chips and mac & cheese

Have been going here since their last location, my 1st review was 6 years ago so thought I'd better update it as I've had many birthday meals here including this year, always great steaks, great sides, & even good veggie options for 1 of my friends! Will keep coming back, need to try the steak challenge sometime too!

Best Steak I had this year 😋. Was so good !!!

Rib eye was chewy which was surprising. Kids meal - ribs and chips for £9 was amazing value and great quality

Fantastic evening celebrating a friends 60th. We were a large table and the waitress was brilliant. She totally gad us all ubder control 🤣 she was confident, kind and attentive. I wish i could remember her name! Food was served very quickly, and was very delicious. Highly recommend

This is a great place to go. We've just been and there was a singer with guitar. Lovely atmosphere. We both had burgers and they were fresh and tasty! My wife had the mushroom burger and was very impressed.! The puddings were also great! We had the brownie and cheesecake. Service was excellent from friendly and professional staff. If you are in Bournemouth...go!

Seemed like a nice place and the interior hinted at their focus on grilling. We ordered grilled chicken sandwich, grilled chicken kebab and fish & chips. The latter was just meh - slightly overcooked and underseasoned. Both chicken dishes were inedible - tough as hockey puck, bland chicken breast palm-sized chunks, completely unchewable. We took a couple of bites and told the waiter to take the plates away. He never asked the reason. We paid & left. The beer (we ordered Staropramen) tasted funky and not like Staropramen at all, too.

Very tasty steak one of the best I've ever had nice and friendly staff to would 100% recommend

I tried their rib every time, it was delicious And Waiters are very helpful 👍 Thankyou harry👌🏻

1st class, love everything about this restaurant. My partner had steak which he said was perfect, me being a vegetarian had the kebabs wow yummy , our 2nd visit and we couldn't fault. staff attentive great atmosphere we will be back.

best fillet steak ive ever had, best chips 10 out of 10.... came back again the next day for lunch, haf the 10oz fillet, it was again superb

Atmosphere was a little off, but the food was amazing

A large group for a birthday, they handled a large group well. Food served at the same time. Some people's steak was chewy, but not all. The butterflied chicken was poor value. 2 glasses(175 ml) of wine over £23!!!!!! Beer £6.80 a pint. You could easily spend £80+ on a meal for 2,and that's only having a main!

Fantastic food and service 👍will definitely be back

Food was absolutely amazing. Staff were welcoming and very friendly 😊

First time here went as a family group nothing was too much trouble the owner was present very nice lady easy to talk to the steaks and prawns were delicious good cocktails and beers and desserts were also excellent absolutely first class experience would easily go again

Visited with a few mates, steaks were amazing, will definitely be returning!

Nice atmosphere inside, friendly staff nice decor. Rump steak and chips. Rump on the chewy side, so was partners. Chips lovely. Dinned at around 4 ish, so it was quiet. Paid £60 for food and drinks. Wheelchair accessible excellent facilities. Got a definite theme with some great artwork. The outdoor seating area was a little off-putting as it was loud and felt rowdy. Completely different vibe once inside. There is limited parking as it's right on the street. Traffic wardens everywhere, so pay or display disabled badge. Looks like it can definitely cater for large groups and parties.

I had high expectations of the place, but was unfortunately left rather disappointed. I ordered the fillet steak medium done (although I usually prefer well done) and on second thought I would have asked to have it well done, although it was quite burned outside so I thought no point. I had it, it was okay, but nothing special for the price. The ribeye, same. Shame they only offer chips, jacket potato or rice to come as a side to the steak. The rice was WAY overcooked and dry. The side salad was around £7 and quite bland. Service by waiters felt quite pressuring rushing to collect our plates twice when we hadn’t yet finished with our meals. But then with things that we had asked, we had to ask twice as there was no attention paid. It was a Thursday night and quite busy/noisy, on entry felt a bit like we were in a pub due to some rowdy customers. Overall - felt very overpriced!

By far the best meal 10 of us had had over a weekend in Bournemouth. We turned up at 8.30pm on the chance hoping that they would cater for us being it was so late and near closing time. Wasn't a problem for these guys. Sorted us a table out and my gosh when the food arrived it was delicious. Steak was cooked to perfection and the meat was scrumptious. 10 happy men with full happy stomachs. One of those meals you just have to finish as it's so divine. Waiter harry was brilliant. Ask for a drink and it was there within minutes. A must visit for anyone who loves a good meal

Fabulous food cannot fault and the staff were so friendly and attentive highly recommend

Pre booked table for 9 of us and was ready upon arrival. Service was great, promptly taking drinks and meal orders. Staters were lovely, bread and olives mainly ordered and good portion size received. Meals came out shortly after- quite quickly. Main courses were coming out and each dish looked incredible- cooked to perfection, excellent standard of quality and brilliant presentation. Really well priced for what you received. Steaks cooked to order and you can tell there is love from the chef to all dishes. I would definitely return. Atmosphere itself was lovely, beautiful decor and a warm touch. Live music also played from a guitarist. Service was great, staff friendly and provided a great service to us. A birthday cake was brought out where staff sang happy birthday, as well as the guitarist also contributing! Overall was a fantasist experience, we can’t wait to return and hope you open one up in north London and Salisbury!

Oh my goodness. The only reason we came here is because our hotel had stopped serving food. So had to venture out to find somewhere to eat. Decided to play it safe and things that most restaurants can't get too wrong. Ordered the Scallops £9.95 Chicken kebab £18.00 Plus BBQ sauce £3.95 - can't even remember ordering that. Burger £17. Two drinks £11. The food was like it was all cooked on the same griddle. So it all tasted of burger. We sat inside which was very noisy. There was some unruly customers. Some were even arguing about their bill to the poor young waiter. Surely that's the managers job. Who is a credit to the business and their best asset. Sadly we won't be returning.

We went funky griller yesterday evening well what can I say absolutely fantastic staff food drinks n really lovely staff it was really lovely food nice n hot n allserved with a smile I.cant recommend the funky griller enough just wish it was in Essex we'd be there all the time so lovely 😍

Delicious sharing board, pet friendly and attentive staff.

Really delicious steak. Big portions do good value for money. Staff are super friendly but do tend to bring your food and disappear.

14 of us for my nieces birthday, the gentleman who served us was friendly, polite and chatty. My meal was forgotten and they were so apologetic and it arrived within 5 minutes. Food was lovely and quick to arrive

A super place, great atmosphere... As a vegetarian the mushroom burger was delicious the blue cheese topping was divine 😋 best chips.

One of the best meals we've had in UK and compares favourably with New Zealand. Whole experience was good on a cold April evening

Service was great. Stake was juicy but tasted a little bland. Not amazing like reviews suggest. But overall a plesent meal and friendly service and food came superfast.

omg food and service were amazing. Best steak I have had in ages!!! 100% recommended for all to try

On a busy Saturday evening, myself and a friend were found a table by helpful staff. A nice buzzy atmosphere greeted us, and wow!! The food is amazing. We went for sirloin steaks and sides. Cooked to perfection by Adam and his team. I well recommend for a meal out in town.

Great quality meat extremely well cooked! Had a great time.

Best ever steaks always staff great and owners friendly and happy to talk great times every time we go which is difficult as we are from st albans

I paid more than £100 today for 2 adults and one kids. But I feel really disappointed with the dishes. I went back to Funki Grillers after years with expectation that the dishes still be the same as before. However, it was totally different. I called 2 steak with rib eyes (210z for each adult). My husband dish was alright. But mine couldn’t be acceptable. It was burn and bitter. I couldn’t complete my dishes and my husband has to help because we don’t want to get rid of £100. Even my kid dish was a little over cooked. It was burned out side the rib. With the bill we paid, we expected much more than a bitter and burned dishes.

Mixed bag really. The steak was good and the chips were good (albeit you don’t get many). BUT the main thing that stays in my mind is when receiving my Scallops as a starter, these were cooked on the same grill and with the same oil as the steaks! So they just tasted of steak, plus they were covered in black bits from the dirty oil. Not nice and not what you’d expect when ordering scallops… Also, the peppercorn sauce that came with the steak was terrible and tasted powdery. So overall it was very average - and I wouldn’t got back as I expect a lot more for what was a VERY expensive meal!

Lovely food and good sized portions. The delivery to table was fast and Michaela gave us really good waitress service, thank you. The two steak meal deal, makes it better value for money. Sadly swapping out the potatoes for salad or vegetables was a bit of an issue and we had to pay for a side dish. A large service charge was automatically added! Parking was horrendously expensive though, Bournmouth needs to rethink the very high car parking charges or those in the know, and regular tourists to the area, will head out to the outlying towns who have a more realistic view of attracting visitors to the area.

Less pretentious than Miller and Carter. Tasty flame grilled steaks at a reasonable price.

Booked for mothers day and my daughters birthday, was pleasantly surprised by the inside as the outside looks a bit shabby. The service was good, we were seated and asked if we want a drink. We ordered drinks and our food, we had tampura king prawns, the tampura was a little under done which made it soggy not crispy. Once we finished the waitress cleared the plates and brought the mains nearly straight away. Give us 5 minutes please. The streak was very good, so we're the chips, however the chip portion was too small. We got the bill which was a lillte more than I expected but I did have the t bone. I summary good and bad, just like the tampura give us a little more time

Poor portions steak cooked for 5 and 30 chips between 5 people this was a warning when food brought to the table in 5-10 minutes. Our steak was rare and fatty when we asked for this to be cooked well done. I have to disagree with some reviews on here It’s not about price always thought you pay more you get a better quality meal. Left here thoroughly disappointed.
