ML One in North Lanarkshire

Attended for Christmas lunch with colleagues. Three course lunch with coffee for £16. Good service. This restaurant is the showcase for final year hospitality students at New College Lanarkshire. Open to the public.

Great staff great place we loved everything about the place cant wait to return keep up the great job

Went with colleagues from work for Christmas lunch - we have eaten here on many occasions. The food is always excellent and the staff couldn't be more attentive. I would definitely recommend a visit here - the food is amazing!

Amazing food, great service, super cheap and huge portions! Cannot believe I've never been here before will definitely be back. Highly recommended place to visit but would recommend booking. Had the best hazelnut biscotti ever tasted!

Visitamos ayer por primera vez como mi hijo va a la universidad y siempre sobre lo bueno que la comida es así que decidimos probar para nosotros. El restaurante está abierto hasta las 2:00 h de lunes a viernes cuando el colegio está abierto. Nos sentamos con rapidez y nos dieron los menús y se sirve agua mientras miramos los menús.Los campos están individualmente razonable pero teníamos que ascendían a tres courser £8,95 cada uno y los menús cambian cada semana. El restaurante es moderno, luminoso, grande y muy limpia. La comida es preparada y servida por los estudiantes, incluso tienen un frente de la casa. Había tres de nosotros y pedimos todos los tres entrantes (empanadas langostinos, la sopa y terrina)recibimos el mismo main (chasseur de pollo con arroz y greens cosechas perdidas) y el mismo dulce (lima y marscapone cheesecake con frutas exóticas) me pareció que jugaron el menú en la comida era increíble en lo que respecta a los gustos y la presentación era precioso. También hay un bar completamente abastecido que aprovechamos y tenía 2 Pinot Grigios a £3 una copa. Bill ascendía a unos 35 libras como mi hijo tenía dos vodkas con Irn BRU. No puedo esperar a volver, lo recomiendo!

During my time as a student have eaten her a few times and it never disappoints. Tasty food, excellent service, tentative waiting staff, lovely vibrant atmosphere.

A great place, not only is the food superb but the prices are AMAZING !!! as it is a learning environment for the hospitality students !! check out the theme nights too ! service and food both fantastic

Los chicos del Thee son estudiantes que dirige un restaurante entero de las entregas, prep, cocinar y luego corriendo por el restaurante para un servicio de almuerzo, bien comedor estilo. Hacen un trabajo increíble. He tenido algunas increíbles 3-4 platos aquí por menos de 10 libras y puedes pedir vino o cerveza si quieres.

Excellent, food prepared and served by 1st & 2nd year students at the college. Food was superb and great value. Please note the kids are learning their trade, give them a little scope and you will thoroughly enjoy it!

The best Restaurant in Motherwell. The food is wonderfull as well as the service. This is all carried out by the talented students at New College Lanarkshire

Nice lunch in at ml one, didn't realise it was a tapas menu today the waitress had to explain it. Larger portions were also available. Food was mostly superb but a few wee niggles/mistakes this time, however just let them know and they'll do their best to either replace it or take it off the bill. Very small complaints really but still let them know that's kind of what we're there for to give them viable feedback. Still highly recommend it I've been many times and will continue to visit regularly the only reason I'm writing this review is I've posted a photo of some of the tapas on offer and ta has attached it as part of the wrong review but it's for this one : ) salt and chilli squid, potato and chorizo qiesadillas, chicken and chorizo paella, butternut squash risotto and plaice with potatoes and peppers can't quite recall the menu name. For starters one of us had a melon and duck dish the other two (myself included) had white onion and chilli soup which was very very nice indeed. Deserts were ok the rice pudding with winter fruit compote could've been warmer and the poached plum sunday was very nice.

Great food and service was very surprised to find the food was served and prepared by 1st year students will be returning soon

We went to ML One for lunch for 4 people. The restaurant is located in Motherwell College, but don't let this put you off. It is run as a full blown licences restaurant, staffed by students undergoing courses at the college. We booked a table for 4 the day before attending. We were taking my father out for lunch as it was his birthday.First thing I have to say is don't let the location put you off, the restaurant is just past the main reception of the college on the ground floor, and although sitting on a main corridor through the building, once inside you could be sitting in any upmarket restaurant anywhere. The décor is wonderful and the table settings immaculate.We were met at the door and shown to our table. The menu, although not a large selection we found it difficult to choose as what was available all appealed to our taste buds. There was a choice of three starters, three mains and two desserts. All 4 of us had difficulty choosing as the dishes offered all looked wonderful on the menu.We ordered our starters and mains. As it was lunch and we were driving, we all offered soft drinks although looking at the menu the price of alcoholic drinks was superb. E.g. Bottle of white wine £8.50, Bombay Sapphire Gin £2.00 (prices were correct at the date of our visit).Back to the food. The staff within the restaurant are all trained/training in 'silver service' and their manner and service was impeccable. Very friendly atmosphere, and lovely cutlery and tableware. I'm fussy and find that cheap cutlery can spoil a meal. The food. Absolutely fantastic. We had all three starters from the menu; Mussels, haggis and soup. I won't go into details on the starters but the presentation was superb. The food quality was second to none and was wonderfully presented. Main: We had the three mains from the menu; Burger, stuffed mushrooms and chicken tikka. These titles do not do the food justice but I would rather that you experienced the food first hand and not from my description. Some of the comments from the group were: very tasty, beautifully presented, great quality, very fresh, etc...We didn't have a dessert as this was only supposed to be a small lunch and everyone was full after the first two courses.The bill, the bill? Oh the bill?Let me just say that I have had two starters in a restaurant that cost more than the total food bill at ML One. It was excellent value for money. The total bill for the four of us having a two course meal with soft drinks was under £25. Yes, really.We have eaten in lots of restaurants with far higher costs and I have to say that many of those restaurants didn't serve food as good quality or provide service as good as we received at ML One. This is one restaurant that we will all be going back too.The restaurant also has themed nights which we are looking forward to attending in the near future.

Went to this restaurant for a Christmas Lunchtime meal.As we entered the restaurant we were greeted at the reception and taken to our table which was pre-booked.The Christmas décor on the table and the restaurant was first class.As soon as we sat down a staff member filled up our glass with lovely refreshing cold water and gave us the menu.Spoiled for choice, from starters to desserts.The food was freshly prepared and nicely decorated on the plates.Picture perfect.The staff was very attentive.After our meal we were invited to meet the Head Chef in the kitchen and the Head Baker.Very friendly and the kitchen and bakery was spotlessly clean.Highly recommended and will visit again.Keep up the good work!

Had one of the best lunches ever today at ml one, absolutely perefect from start to finish and in and out within an hour. Top drawer cooking really five star food. Been a few times and always enjoyed it but was really blown away by the quality of the cooking today. £16 for 2 people, 3 courses and 2 drinks really unbelievable for how amazing this food was. A must try cant praise it highly enough

We Visited ML1 Restaurant Last Night, For A Themed Night, As My Niece is Studying For Her HND In Hospitality Management, at New College Lanarkshire.What a Revelation! From the Minute we Entered the Restaurant & Were Greeted At the Reception, till We Left the Restaurant We Had A Fabulous TimeThe Front Of House Staff Waiters, Waitresses & Everyone Were So Professional & Could Teach Many Seasoned Hotel & Restaurant Staff a thing or 2.The Fact that They are only in Training, was Showcasing Some Stars Of the Future.Not Forgetting Either the Kitchen Staff, Our Future Chefs.The Food Was Second to None, & that is saying something, as I'm difficult to Please!The Waiter for our Table, David, will Go Far, He had Such a Sparkling Wit & Personality, But Most of All Had a Very Professional Work Ethic.Entertainment was also Provided for us Which was Excellent. it was a very Memorable Night & hopefully Won't be our Last Visit to ML1.To Anyone in the Lanarkshire Area, you Have a Hidden Gem Just Waiting to Be Visited & I would Highly Recommend This Restaurant to Anyone.

This hidden gem of a restaurant is part of the new college on the site of the former Ravenscraig site in Motherwell. The kitchen and restaurant are staffed by hospitality students at the college, so it helps to bear in mind that they are still learning. Having said that, the food was excellent and expertly presented. We were told that the students in the kitchen were under the watchful eye of a former Gleneagles chef, and it showed. The menu is limited to 2-3 starters but they all sounded appetising. For starters, we had the butternut squash velouté with goats cheese - delicious - and the pork with black pudding - first class (plate-lickingly good!)For mains we chose pheasant (very pleasant) and the mushroom risotto with Parmesan - very flavourful and ample portions. We tried the baked apple and the plum tart for deserts - very good but not the highlight of the meal. Total cost for two, including 2 mineral waters, was amazingly under £16We hope to come back soon.

What a superb lunch! Overall was much better than the 'taste' training restaurant at cumbernauld college. Menu was excellent with unbelievable prices. With the high quality of food it makes for ridiculously good value (laughably low prices). All high quality food cooked well. Really nice dishes and great service very quick and friendly our waiter was always smiling which is always nice. Highly recommend. its easy to forget your in a college and I would be happy paying a lot more for the same standard of food elsewhere theres even a lot of places nearby cant match this standard.

I've had the pleasure of visiting the Training restaurant in Motherwell college plenty of times, living locally, and it has never disappointed. The restaurant itself is tastefully decorated, don't worry that you will be in some canteen on lecture room in the college, this feels and trades like a proper real establishment, so as to give the students some real experience of the hospitality trade. The quality of the food is really very high, with the Tuesday - Thursday menu the "silver" students (second year I believe?) and the Mondays and Fridays menu belonging to the bronze level students (1st year?) This is reflected in the menus themselves which are usually available to view on their website, the former being of slightly more advanced dishes ( technically), but that's not to say I've not thoroughly enjoyed the salmon on a Friday! The menu comprises of choice of two starters, three mains and two desserts, there's always a vegetarian option on the starter and main, and its also licensed, so you can accompany your meal with a wine or beer should you wish!The food is some of the best I've had the pleasure of eating, always packed with flavour and perfectly cooked and presented, served with a lack of pretension by the smartly dressed students. The value is incredible, with starters usually about £2.50, mains about £3-4, and desserts at £2They also hold theme nights and days, the last of which I went to was the Wine Lovers event on Valentines night. £27.50 for 5 courses, with a drink included at each, accompanied by some interesting tasting notes from a wine specialist made for a fantastic evening, admittedly I was a bit tipsy by the time coffee was served, but it was a fantastic evening, again terrific value on a "premium" occasion night.Easily my favourite place to eat in North Lanarkshire, but be sure to book ahead, as it only serves lunchtimes (out with theme nights) usually taking booking between 12 - 12.45 (seating times.

Okay this is a restaurant within Motherwell College staffed and food made by the students BUT The quality of the food is at the top end and sophisticated.I would compare this to two fat ladies at the buttery in Glasgow.You need to book in advance and they only do lunch.I had a salad, salmon main and lemon tart with a latte and my wife had something similar - we shared a bottle of fizzy water total cost - less than £20.The downside is that you may need to return food if undercooked as these are students learning the trade but at this price that seems a good deal.
