Kaz's Canteen in Rugby

We entered and got a really warm welcome, my family and I got our own private room to dine in. Drinks were served pretty quickly and starters came in no time. We were all happy with our starters and it really set the tone for the rest of the meal. Absolutely not. There were multiple of us that had the vegetarian/vegan option. “Roaster cauliflower served with all traditional trimmings and vegan gravy” What was served was just revolting. They clearly had absolutely no idea how to feed people that aren’t meat eaters. They were served with just cauliflower (which wasn’t even cooked as I could hear it crunching in my cousins mouth!) and three roast potatoes - alongside some gravy that was practically just water. For £70 you expect a lot of a higher standard than this, there was no colour on the plate! No carrots, sprouts nothing! “All the traditional trimmings” my arse! We asked for extra veg and they brought out MORE cauliflower and some sad looking broccoli, both of which were still undercooked and not worth eating to be honest. I had the beef, which you imagine to be sliced thinly. Wrong. They had practically slabbed an entire beef joint on my plate, treating it like it was a steak! It was so tough and they hadn’t provided any sharper knives for me to cut the meat with. My one tiny carrot and parsnip just made it apparent that they clearly had no idea how to serve a traditional Christmas dinner. Pigs in blankets were brought in 10 minutes into our main meal in an effing cereal bowl? Wtf! Pudding was okay but it was cold. I suggest you do you research if you plan on hosting Christmas Day again!! Get some half decent chefs in who know how to cook vegetables. We were so disgusted by the food put in front of us, it was genuinely like they had ran out of food and just put what was left on our plate (we were booked for just after midday, so god knows what the people that came in after us got!) We did get the correct money off but it’s still a complete joke, we just ended up going home and making a second dinner as we were all starving! We won’t be coming back.

We love this place and order regularly!! The kebabs are just amazing. A freshly baked pitta, tasty lamb and fresh crunchy salad. The homemade garlic sauce is also a winner. The delivery drivers are always so polite and chatty - I can’t fault anything!! Best kebabs in Rugby, we always order from Lazzolli!!
