Lavish Bar & Grill in Stevenage

Had an amazing meal here whilst visiting family in Stevenage - the menu was great and service was top notch. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area!

I went there on Sunday 28th of July at 17.30. I have been waiting for served about 20-30 minutes. I did try look around and keep eye contact for a waiter who came to served next table outside. He seems ignored me. Then a woman walked a long the road and sit next to my table. She had been served before me who was waiting 20-30 minutes!! After I seen it am stood up and say to a rude waiter about it. He said I have to get inside and order. What??? I seen you came get orders from that woman outside. Why should I go get order inside then?? He should say sorry instead say those words to customer! I did call a manager yesterday 2nd of August to complaint about the service and staff. You know what a manager is helpless as well. If you not have enough staff then your problem. I really disappointed that day. I’ll never go back that restaurant. What a terrible, rude customer service!! Service charge a rip off! I wouldn’t recommend 👎

Went for lunch for my daughter's birthday as a group of 10. Service and food was amazing as always. Oz was great with my daughter and she loved her dry ice surprise on her birthday cake.

Not what it was since changed management Still great waiter left but rest is blah Cold bread cold dinner Had its day Need to up their game or days are numbered

I had a large group dinner at Lavish in Stevenage in July 2024. I had the best time of my life, the service was excellent from beginning till the end. Firstly, I want to thank Oz, he went above and beyond for us and the hospitality was fantastic the whole way through. The communication with the team was First class. A big shout out to our waitresses for the night Abby, Lew Lew and the supportive manager Derya. I will be coming back to lavish and I’ve sent recommendations for other people too!

Lavish has a lovely restaurant . The beers are small bottles so u get through them pretty quick so could be costly. We had ribeye steak which was a decent portion. Steak was cooked to how I liked it . The side portion of mushrooms however were very dry so didn't really compliment the steak too well .

The food is so delicious it looks unreal. And service is very fast we didn’t wait long even it was busy. Highly recommended who loves tasty food !

We went there with my dear brothers.We heard this place before.Therfore,We wanted to give it a try.Interior design was really nice,Service was amazing.Food was tasty.Menu selection was quite wide.They also do live music during the dinner. It goes really well together.I like every single bits.I don’t know which one I should recommend.Because,All the starters and dishes we order were so delicious.King prawn with the sauce is super delicious.It was a worth experience. Highly recommended

My daughter and I went to lavish for her birthday. We had a wonderful time, greeted by the most charming man who then served us a really fabulous meal. The creed beetroot for a starter was divine and daughter’s goats cheese was not only generous but tasty and beautifully presented. I followed with chicken teryakiwhich was again superb and she had another chicken dish. We both had a while wine spritzer as we were driving. All in all a wonderful meal, superb service and amazing surroundings. You will see us again. Thank you

Just delicious everything the reviews promised. The staff were so polite and fun, and the food just fabulous, the bread was the best bread I have had at any restaurant. Everything was perfect.

I have been here once before for a works Christmas do and the service and food were excellent we were a group of about 20 people. Came today for my birthday with husband and son, every dish we had was good quality ingredients, good portion sizes and delicious. Staff are very nice and service is prompt. I was even given a complimentary cheese cake with a sparkler and dry ice. Lovely food and service, we want to make a monthly visit

We went there to celebrate my birthday. Friendly welcome, food was delicious and service was good without being over bearing. We were given a cimllumentary Lkmincelli abd a chicolate mousse dessert with firery candle and sraff sung happy birthday which rounded off the night.

We arrived for lunch and were quite taken aback that the restaurant was empty. We expected then that despite the lovely decor the food probably wasn't up to much. How wrong we were! The wait staff were very friendly and not too overbearing when we were eating. The food was outstanding. Best meal out I have had in a long time. There isn't a kids menu but they were very accommodating. We want to return but probably for dinner as we would like to experience it with a busier atmosphere.

Great dinner for partner's birthday, service was lovely, good food and nice atmosphere. Both had steak (cooked spot on) and seafood starters

To be honest I really enjoy it this place, definitely l will come back, Food; 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service; 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Atmosphere; 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Has it changed hands? Was really disappointed tonight! My kids took me for Mother’s Day and service was really bad and food not great! Always loved it here before

We were 3 ordered 3 starters, 3 main and 3 desserts. One of the Starter was not even average. 2 small tiny mushrooms with a big basket of bread was given as a starter. Other started were just ok. All main dishes were around average cheep restaurant food. Nothing special. However the price was too overpriced for such an average dishes. The restaurant was too noisy, and it was hard to hear each other. The echoes and the crowd was too much. The dessert was better than started and main dishes. We will not go back

Although food was very nice, the overall experience made me not want to go back, we booked for 20 of us for a 40th birthday, wasn’t told when booking that would be a set menu for a large group this was only mentioned when I questioned the menu at the table, as 2 of the people with us had chosen there meals on the normal menu as one of them has Crohn’s disease and other a stoma bag so limited to what they could eat. When I asked about this I was told I’m sorry this is the menu for large group, had I known this when booking I would have chose somewhere else to eat, also wasn’t told about the service charge of £93 bringing our total bill to £822 plus we had already paid £200 deposit to secure the booking when spending £1022 I would have expected a bit more decorum when it came to the choices and maybe given a option of something else

We went to Lavish while in Stevenage for a 90th Birthday party... We had looked online for a place for dinner and after looking at a couple of the usual drunk pictures of menus online (why people do that...) We went to Lavish by mistake since it was a lot more expensive than I like.... but we were there so we were committed.. The food for the most part was very good. The army of serving staff provide adequate service. The atmosphere is very good aside from being seated in front of the band and not being able to have a conversation. The disappointing thing is the incredibly poor value for money and the tiny portions. My wife and my Aunt had a couple of appetizers, while I had a meal. My wife had scallops of which there were 2 1/2 of them for £11 I had the Mixed Sheesh for £21 The food was not hot and while the chicken was dry the lamb was very good But for £21 it was a snack and not a meal .. To spend £85 for 4 appetizers 1 cold and medicre main and 3 drinks...

What an absolutely wonderful place this was! The staff were lovely and the food was truly delicious. I had their Duck, and it was cooked to perfection. The food was hot, and the atmosphere was lively. The volume of music could have been slightly lower in order to have a conversation, but this is a young persons venue and my friends and I are (to put it politely) slightly older! However, next time I'm in Stevenage, I will most certainly eat here again.

Lavish is a lovely restaurant, beautifully furnished with space between tables so that you can have a private conversation. The food was delicious, full of flavour and nicely presented as were the cocktails. The portions are fairly large here and Lavish thoughtfully provided a container to take home the leftovers. They’re far too tasty to leave behind. The waiter was helpful and attentive without being intrusive. As it was my daughter’s 21st birthday the restaurant very kindly presented her with one of their delicious crème brûlée desserts which was a lovely thought. All in all a very enjoyable evening. I’m planning on coming back soon with a large group of friends as I know they will love this restaurant. Would highly recommend Lavish. You won’t be disappointed.

Lovely ambience, quiet when we arrived but quite buzzing when we left. Saturday lunch, two courses with some wine £85. Initially starters choices appeared relatively expensive compared to local casual dining chain restaurants, but the portions were very good value and very tasty. There was a wide selection of mains which seemed more reasonably priced, and easy to substitute rice for chips. The mains we chose were elevated versions of kebabs, chicken and lamb. They were beautifully presented and were exceptionally good value compared to other local comparisons. The staff were attentive and there were many to support the number of diners while we were there. We didn’t have time to stay for dessert so I cannot comment on these. (I guess I’ll have to go back again to try them out!)

There is no better restaurant in Hertfordshire! We love this place! The calamari and kebabs are unsurpassed. The service is of the highest standard and nothing is too much trouble and the staff are very attentive and friendly. High standard of decor is exceptional and the atmosphere buzzy. BUT...BEWARE OF THE BREAD!!!

Visited as part of a work’s Christmas dinner and was very impressed. Great selection on a fixed menu. Beautifully cooked and presented Will be visiting again with family

Excellent food, restaurant nice decor inside and outside. Mix of Turkish and western dishes was fused seamlessly. Particularly friendly nice service. Only real gripe was cocktails we had seemed to be virtually no alcohol. Definitely will return, good local restaurant for families and groups.

We received a lovely welcome to the restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was brilliant by all the staff, especially Yannick who looked after us from start to finish. We went for my husband's birthday and all of the staff acknowledged this which was a lovely touch. We really enjoyed our evening, highly recommend, we will be back, thank you so much.

Excellent as always. Service was superb and food was as delicious as always. Highly recommend if you want excellence

Excellent!! A little more expensive than the usual offerings but it's so worth it! Food is excellent, served very quickly, stunning to look at and delicious. Cocktails are by far the best in Stevenage. The service was outstanding, the gentleman that served us was very entertaining and really made us feel special. The best service I've ever had whilst eating out anywhere! Aptly named restaurant as it truly was a Lavish experience. Thank you, I cannot wait to return!

Absolutely delicious! We had such a great evening, the food, service & atmosphere was outstanding. The live singer was so good & really made our evening even more enjoyable.6th.10th.23 This was our second visit & I would 100% recommend Lavish. Looking forward to our next visit.

Simple to book online, staff always give that extra bit of TLC and remember you if you have been before. Cocktails taste amazing and are well presented - food is even better. It’s always our first choice if booking a meal out in Stevenage Old Town.

The service and attention to detail at Lavish Bar and Grill is unmatched, food always served in great timing. Cocktails were absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend, will be returning! Friendly and lively atmosphere! Thanks everyone at Lavish!

Another great dining experience. In one word: outstanding! We went for dinner to celebrate a special occasion with our daughter, and absolutely everything was perfect. The food, the drinks, but most important thr service. The customer services was just perfect, personal, and the gentleman who look after us (I didn't ask his name, sorry) was incredible. Even gave our daughter some tips about hospitality management (she has just been promoted and works in the industry). I cannot recommend this place highly enough!

Fantastic lunch out today, the staff were so welcoming from the second we walked up and looked after us brilliantly! We were seated outside in the sunshine as requested and enjoyed a lovely lunch of various starters served meze style for us to share. The...

Lavish has consistently had excellent food for all 3 times I've visited. Good choice on the menu. We were here Friday night and there was live music which was good. The staff are really friendly and Yannick was helpful, funny and friendly. Would highly recommend.

Despite the rude looks and the overall treatment by the manager this evening, the whole time we were inside the premises, I will try to be constructive as much as I can. First thing we were told by the door was “dress code”, my mate...

I came here for my birthday and had a great experience! Leyla served us, she was great and very attentive. The live music was also great and we loved our food. I recommend the prawns and steak, they are as good as everyone hypes them...

Great food, wonderful service, awesome cocktails, and even live music on the night we went. We were only visiting for a couple of days but it made me wish I lived locally. Thanks for a great Friday night.

Really nice restaurant, good ambience, friendly efficient service and delicious food. Lamb tacos and beetroot smash were great, truffle pasta and chicken shish also really good. We will definitely come here again.

First time to visit this restaurant. Pleasantly surprised. Nice, comfortable environment if a little dark in places. Not extensive but adequate menu choices. Food very nicely presented. Reasonable portions and very tasty. I had the chicken sarma beyti and my husband had the chicken truffle...

Revisited this restaurant for a birthday celebration meal - as before could not fault the food or the service. Yes, a bit pricey but have to say the best steaks ever anywhere. We will be back!

Went here for a 70th birthday get together lunch. Service and food was good. Bit put off by how dark it was, even during daylight. Difficult to see each other across the table it was so dark. Not sure we would return.

After reading so many 5* reviews for this restaurant in Old Stevenage we were underwhelmed and feel it has been oversold. In our opinion there are better places to eat in Old Stevenage as the food was very average Turkish fare at an above average...

We went to Lavish to celebrate my husband's birthday and it was just an amazing experience. From the entrance you're welcomed by someone and walked to your table, the place looks really great...very posh. We've had 3 different waiters helping us (which was great) but...

Had a wonderful meal with excellent service from Luiz. We went very slow and he was so funny and patient Thanks for making it such a great time.

We enjoyed our Valentines lunch immensely. Good table spacing, ambience and meticulous service. What was amazing was the food. Excellent, imaginative dishes, so good and the wines too. Where we would normally have just a main course we had starters, main and desert. This restaurant...

First time eating here. Was very busy..food was lovely. Live music added to the atmosphere. My only criticism would be that we had only just sat down and we were pounced on for a drinks order when hadn’t even had time to look at the...

Lovely dinner, food and service was amazing. A great atmosphere. Had a live singer tonight who was also fabulous.

Aware that my in-laws always come into central London due to the quality and diverse choice of restaurants, I decided to book one closer to them for a change, and according to this app ‘Lavish’ in Stevenage was the best choice, but unfortunately there was...

Atmosphere in this place is brilliant, live music and nicely decorated. Food was A star, very much recommend the dynamite prawns and the josper cooked chicken thighs. A cheap dinner is not to be expected but they do go the extra mile with extremely attentive...

I have dined here both lunchtime and evening meals. Possibly the best place to eat in Stevenage. The staff are friendly and polite, the atmosphere is great and the food is exceptional.

I cannot recommend Lavish Bar & Grill enough. Firstly, the decor is luxurious without being overbearing or pretentious which creates a warm and inviting ambience. The cuisine is Mediterranean and can give some restaurants located in the Mediterranean a run for their money. Exquisite dishes...

Dined early, midweek at 5 over Halloween. Family of 6. Nice and quite and so attentive staff. A variety of dishes and food was excellent. Nice decor and effort made for Halloween. Drinks above average price but full range plus great cocktails. Great service. Nice...

I recently visited Lavish with a small group of friends. During the evening my choice of drink was an assortment of shots, whilst my friends had chosen to drink wine/cocktails. One particular waiter made various comments in a judgemental manner in relation to several shot...
