Lovely little hidden away gem the only things I can say is the wine is very over priced and the fillet steak is just not a fillet it’s tough and I have it rare and this I could not chew! A la carte food it’s not but it’s a nice settling and a good sized restaurant. Not bad just needs a little more concentration on the menu I feel, appreciated it’s Covid but could be a little more using local produce etc for the price.

Our meal here was lovely. We were made very welcome and had a nice table by the window. The wine list was good and reasonably priced. The menu has a range of meat, fish and vegetarian dishes. I had trouble selecting a starter as there were several that sounded delicious. In the end I chose the belly of pork and it was great. My friends all enjoyed their choices too. I chose lamb for my main course and again it was lovely. Two of our group had the halibut and also commented how nice it was. A small dessert range but again beautifully served.I would definitely go back to this restaurant.

We are so disappointed that we don't live closer to Findon because we would love this to be a regular treat. It was definitely one of the best three meals I have ever had and the staff are so lovely and service was spot-on.

Really great service & food. Shame that we were overcharged for 3 courses when we both only had two,

We have eaten at the Sylvan Oak a couple of times previously, notably last August when we had a very good meal, we could not fault the meal on this occasion top notch. However we went here for my wife's birthday with friends and we were very disappointed. Two of us had for starters the Scallops,Lobster & Caviar Lasagne with Lobster Bisque, this dish lacked real flavor and the pasta was simply not good, the menu says Scallops yet you get one! mmm sorry this dish was not good. I had the lamb rump, what I had was OK, but the portion size was poor, and the vegetable were all diced up very small, I have not had vegetables like this since I was a child, sorry this dish was lacking class. My friend had the deer, well I thought I was short changed, he had very little in the way of meat, and again not that well presented. Our ladies both had halibut, clearly the better choice. But overall we left feeling this was an expensive poor meal, and not good value for money.

We booked a pre Christmas evening meal for four,and what a fabulous culinary experience we encountered. As two of our party are vegetarians, we were a little apprehensive as we had not seen the menu prior to booking.However our concerns were rightfully put aside!Whilst perusing the menu we enjoyed a local sparkling wine from the wiston estate ( just outside of Steyning)crisp cold and dry, a worthy champagne beater! We ordered our starters and mains whilst warm rolls and olives with oil were served.Four different starters all exceptional, the mushroom gateaux was a just amazing!,as was the scallops and vegetarian tartlet.The wine list is fascinating, with wines that are rarely seen in restaurants, I must say the Turkish wine we chose was excellent, and must return to sample more from the list.Our mains came, beautifully presented ( Michelin star, we feel) and all delicious, the partridge with black pudding, celeriac lasagne & venison all gladly received.Can we manage a pudding? Well it would be rude not too! So to finish our evening we had scrumptious apple tart and a trifle that in our companion’s opinion was the best ever eaten.We give thanks and wishing the chefs and staff a happy new year!, one in which we will return!

Excellent and friendly service, the halibut with beans and red onions melted in the mouth, we even tried discreetly to ask for the recipe but they would not give that out.

We came here for a funeral reception and the Sylvan Oak were very good, lovely food and excellent staff. Ran out of some drinks which needs looking at?

My wife and I dined at this very cosy restaurant in the centre of Findon village, well known locally for its quality of specialities and seasonal food. There isn't a huge choice on the menu but caters for most palates and is presented beautifully and courteously. The owner and all staff are welcoming and friendly, looking after all your needs during your visit.

We have been to Sylvan Oak before and it was so good we went back. As a group of 9 the service was attentive and courteous and efficient. Sinan is an excellent host providing a menu to suit those who like to try something new and different, or traditional foods. His chefs work hard to accommodate any dietary requirements. An excellent meal in a lovely village. Priced well.

I have to say I am disappointed in the customer service received this week. I have no issues with the food but the customer service is not great. After a busy week I wanted to treat my staff to lunch, I used just eat app to order. The food never arrived and when I contacted the shop they just said it's been collected so nothing they can do, contact Just eat. They also said it's happend a few times. I felt it was a simple we have out money for the order so all is fine, but it's not. So my question is why use the service and risk customer disappointment. Surely you know who collects and should have some way of contacting the delivery person should the food not arrive to the customer. The food was delivered to a completely different address and postcode to the one on the order. Just because of this situation I will no longer use this shop and will not recommend to people like I have done quite a few times before. Just so you know I am out of pocket for the food twice because I have to reorder and collect in-person just to not let my team down.

Overall the food was excellent but my broccoli was cold and soggy, and I had far too many potatoes with my steak. It felt like the potatoes were a space filler. Everyone else's food was excellent though. There's never really much atmosphere in Amis , which is a shame; given that the food is so good. Our main reason for sorting the service so low is the fact we had to pre-order our food days in advance, yet had to wait an hour and twenty minutes for our mains. Never a big fan of pre-ordering food. It takes away any spontaneity and makes it feel like a Xmas dinner set menu, which I could understand if the Tayside was packed full, or we'd had an exceptionally large party but at the time the 8 of us booked for, there were more empty tables than full ones, and what added insult to our experience was the fact the owner tried to blame us for ordering 2 intros ( a bowl of prawn crackers and a small plate of finger sausages) as to the reason we had to wait so long for our mains. In summary: Really good food overall but not the best dining " experience " .

What an amazing cafe! We were lucky enough to have our Mother’s Day brunch there today, and despite us being a bit of a tricky bunch with 2 vegans and one gluten free, the staff were fantastic, so helpful and accommodating, and the service, food and drinks were all delicious. Thank you so much.
