Ate here tonight Staying at Dormy house for a couple of nights Honestly we didn’t think the back garden restaurant at the hotel last night was that amazing so I was a bit nervous about Mo tonight Have to say I needn’t have worried We had a lovely evening Great intimate setting - only 8 of us (max 12) Nice company (2 American couples and 2 British couples so some good chat) Food was very good Some really craftsmanship and interesting dishes Wine pairing was delicious (quite small pours though!)

MO is a chef’s table style experience with an eight course tasting menu and an optional flight of wines. Four of us were joined by eight others. Ben and Dan were our chefs for the evening and JJ our sommelier. This was a fun evening full of creative tasty dishes which were prepared, cooked and served with enormous skill. Ben, Dan and JJ were very engaging and happy to answer any questions from the diners. If you are looking for a different eating out experience, you should definitely consider a visit to Mo.

This is experience was absolutely amazing & very personal. We were all told to meet in the front room at 7 where we were served drinks and nibbles. We were then in our groups taken through to the restaurant. All in all we 10 people. 3 couples and a group of 4. We all sat round a table overlooking where the chefs were working. They were very engaging and spoke to us all detailing every dish. The dishes themselves were absolutely amazing. 8 in all. A mixture of meat & fish. I am not a fish fan but every dish was so nice it was had to resist! We would definitely recommend this experience. For the price it is it is really good value for money for the experience alone! I would also recommend the wine pairing!

We experienced the Mo tasting menu whilst staying at Dormy House. It was excellent and the staff (two chefs and the sommelier) were great: friendly and professional. They all engaged with the group (of 10 in total) and made the evening thoroughly enjoyable. Every course was beautifully cooked and presented with an enjoyable wine flight to match. We won’t comment on any particular course because they were all so good. Flawless!

The food and surroundings are both fantastic, the best thing about it by far though is the experience! To be able to watch them finish the dishes off right in front of you, and to be able to ask the Chefs questions isn’t something you ever really get the chance to do. It is expensive, but for a one off special occasion I’d say go for it, it’s an experience you won’t forget.

What an experience my hubby and I had dining at Mo with 10 others. It was fun sitting beside other guests dipping in and out of conversation about the food and other things. The food was exquisite prepared by Skye and Josh in front of us with detailed descriptions about each dish, how it was cooked, the ingredients etc. The food was matched with some fabulous wines and JJ the sommelier again talked through these. The dishes were creative, beautiful looking and delicious! Thank you! Whilst it’s an expensive meal the experience was worth it - really enjoyed us and we were so well looked after!

Just had a couple of nights at Dormy house hotel (at which the back garden is one of the 2 restaurants) We ate at the back garden on the first night Let me preface this by saying the hotel and the chefs table restaurant (Mo, which we dined at on the second night) are top notch - I’ve reviewed them separately also If I’m being honest though, the Back Garden was a bit of a let down Setting - lovely Service - great Wine and cocktails - fab I think we just made a few bad choices in terms of dishes (which are always subjective at the end of the day) Emma had the gazpacho - we love a gazpacho, this one just felt a bit thin and lacking seasoning. It was almost trying to be a bit too delicate I’d say the same about my starter, I had the hot smoked salmon salad - it just didn’t taste of much, needed more dressing. Just something to bring it to life? Emma’s main - the curried Kiev was top notch I had the roast cod in a mussel veloute sauce. Nice, but only 3 mussels? Emma didn’t have a dessert, I was intrigued by the sheep’s cheese, honey comb and Eccles cake dessert (the most expensive at £14) It just didn’t work for me - two small blobs of cheese, a small square of honeycomb and a small (beautifully baked) Eccles cake - it just didn’t hang together, I’m not sure what it was meant to deliver? We had a pleasant evening (thanks everyone) but compared to the rest of the stay we felt it missed the mark

Shocking service I don't normally review While doing a small tour of the area and having stopped at the close several times we decided to stop there for lunch that was a wasted 45 minutes We Sat in the garden got ignored for around 10 minutes in the end I went inside to ask for menus i had to stop a waiter to ask as i was continually ignored as staff walked past never asking can I help you I took the menus outside 2 visits from a waiter to another table again never looking around or asking would we like to order a some time later a second waiter appeared at the wooden station again no acknowledgement whatsoever we then decided we were wasting our time we really should not be trying to chase some service the staff here need some desperate training even a comment of I will be with you shortly would have been great ! And acceptable ! We returned to painswick for some great service and had lunch there But it's nice to see the close is doing so well they don't need to worry about lost custom
