Vine aquí por algo de comida un sábado por la tarde, El tiempo era precioso, así que nos sentamos fuera, teníamos una mesa preciosa en el sol. Las sillas podían hacer con algunos cojines y todos estábamos bastante incómodos después de un tiempo. Parecía tomar bastante tiempo para que alguien viniera a traer menús y tomar nuestra orden de bebidas, sin embargo, estaba muy ocupado. La comida era buena pero cara, tabla de queso a £ 12 tenía 3 cortadores muy pequeños de queso uno de los cuales no era particularmente agradable... . Pedimos pollo, cordero y el delicioso pan con mantequilla de marmita que nos encanta. Decidimos tomar otra copa pero fuimos a sentarnos dentro después de comer y nos molestó bastante que a pesar de tomar una ronda de bebidas con nuestra comida y volver a pedir la misma en el bar, a mi hermana le cobraron 16 libras por su vino en lugar de las 10 libras que había tomado en la mesa. No me di cuenta del error hasta que vinimos a pagar. Nos fuimos un poco molestos y no es un error que repetiremos.

Service was poor and none of the food tasted very nice. We asked for a table but were left to find one ourselves, then for the rest of the night we had to wait around and chase the staff to get menus, get our order in (they wouldn’t take the full order in one go), and pay. We were brought an additional item we didn’t order which they took back, but they still tried to charge us for it. We liked the restaurant interior and atmosphere but overall we were left disappointed.

What a find this place is! Little plates of delicious food, great atmosphere and excellent service. My husband loved the oysters and red mullet. I enjoyed the Comte and crispy onions tarts. We both thought the truffle fried chicken and crispy potatoes were gorgeous. Lovely cheese board to finish! Enjoyed to so much we have been twice this week! 👌

I only popped in here last Saturday afternoon for a late, light lunch. So I haven't really formed an opinion quite yet. I love the interior and the vibe of the place, but need a few more visits, I think to appreciate it fully. This applies to the food too. It's very ambitious, but somewhat heavy. We'll be back soon to spend more time though.

Fantastic food and oysters, as well as amazing and friendly staff! Came here with my partner for the first time and the waiter made us feel welcome straight away, and the bartender even came over to check on my allergies to make extra sure (not to mention made an amazing Bloody Mary!) definitely recommend and will certainly be returning! Worth the price for sure, can’t wait to come back!

My partner and I have visited next door a few times which has been great but we ventured for a quick drink on the way home from work. Loved the atmosphere. A great wine selection with some lovely little bar snacks! A bit of sourdough bread with some marmite butter went down a treat! Will definitely be returning to enjoy the atmosphere.

From the minute we arrived Brandon and his team took great care of us. The oysters were indescribably delicious, sublime doesn't begin to describe them. Served 4 different ways there is definitely something for everybody. The sourdough bread with marmite butter was a treat and the mussels a must. We will definitely become regulars at this gorgeous place with it's excellent service. It is also worth mentioning that they have a happy hour on their oysters until 18h30. This made us very very happy.

Este sitio tiene buen ambiente y comida interesante. Si vas en grupo, no suele haber problemas. Sin embargo, si vas sólo a comer, mientras lees un libro en la terraza, intentan engañarte. A mi hoy me han dado pan escaso pan con la deliciosa mantequilla con marmite. Además, de postre la tartita de limón era media tartita pues sólo me han servido la mitad. En el colmo de la frescura han intentado cobrarme una propina de casi £7 El servicio deja mucho que desear

My husband and I went there for their happy hour for cocktails and oysters (only £2 for oysters during happy hour!). It was a lovely atmosphere on the terrace and the food and service were both excellent. They accommodated an allergy at our table without issue and the oysters were incredible value for money. Our favourites were the fried oyster and the pickled apple with horseradish. Special mention also for the trout and nori which was also excellent.

I have been to Uisce several times and everyone for a different reason or context, but every time has blown me away. It is a treat. I couldn't afford to go whenever I wanted, which is probably a good thing otherwise I would be there all of the time (which is not tobsay that it's not good value for money) but as I've said, it is always a treat. The food is beautiful, the drinks are outstanding and the staff treat you like you're special.

I went last week for drinks before food. Asking the staff about vegan options i was assured that some dishes could be made vegan and so stayed. Essentially this was by removing the most expensive ingredients without substitution, hallmark of a lazy restaurant behind the times. E.g. paid £9 for some meh tomatoes and 11 for some artichokes, all tiny portions of course. I was assured there would be a great sounding noodle dish as well, so ordered that. Cocktails were excellent, but i was recommended an off menu cocktail without being told there was a £2 surcharge. Anyway, in our party of four, SIX dishes never arrived, including the noodles, which was the only reason we stayed for food. Had i known I'd leave hungry i wouldn't have stayed. Ended up paying £44 for two cocktails and two substandard small plates alongside some bread which is quite frankly outrageous. Being told to "come back at a less busy time to get better service" was the icing on the cake. Such a shame, don't go here for food.

Fantastic food and wine, lovely ambience and great staff. The secret is to head there early to get a table. It’s only small, so until the weather warms up, we are more than happy to sit inside. All the dishes we had were delicious. Yes the portions are quite small for the price, but the taste makes up for that. Everything was lovely. The wine is good too, and again, a bit on the expensive side, but you pay for what you get. The service is great, friendly and informative. Will definitely be back soon.

We got there as soon as it opened as it's walk-in only and after seeing earlier reviews wanted to be sure of a table. Perfect ambience and good tunes. Thank you to everyone at Usice.

My second time visiting...had lunch with a friend in the outside area. Absolutely gorgeous dishes, beautifully presented, and top class service. The monkfish was absolutely gorgeous, and the pulled pork crumpet so tasty. My only criticism is that it's a little pricey for a light lunch, and we only had soft drinks...at £40 a head. But if you think that quality, style and excellent service deserve that little bit more then it's worth it!! Will certainly be back soon!!

We visited on the spur of the moment, around 9:30pm on a Saturday, and we’re lucky to get a table. We sat inside, and the ambience was lovely (music slightly too loud but GREAT playlist). We had Oysters, and tapas dishes, along with a bottle of wine. It was all gorgeous. The service was incredible, staff all so lovely and friendly. Although it is part of Heaneys, it is completely separate. They have a lovely outdoor seating area under a stretch tent. I have noticed the other reviews about service, which is why I have highlighted the time of our visit as although we managed to get the only free table, most people had finished their food, so perhaps if we were there earlier, we may have had to wait longer. From our experience, we cannot wait to go back!

Had our first dining exprience at Uisce this week, after enjoying eating at Heaney's many times in the past and we were not disappointed. The small plates were delicious and lots to pick from, you can tell that only the freshest produce is used and that love and care is put into the preparation, everything was delicious, the oysters were the best we have tasted. We love sitting outside under the tent, it has been so well decorated, it really adds a nice atmosphere to your meal. The service was excellent, nothing is too much trouble, the staff are all so friendly and helpful. Some of our dishes are missing from the picture, but that was just from us being so excited to start them that they were half gone before I realised I hadn't taken a picture!!

Had lunch today and we were both very happy with the food. The lamb, curd and garlic dish was absolutely stunning, as was the chocolate choux bun. Whilst it isn't cheap, it is definitely worth it as the food is just really, really well done. A few reviewers clearly want to eat to the point having to loosen belts. I was definitely not left hungry. The staff were brilliant, and we will definitely go again.

Just No. Sat at the rear of the restaurant in some sort of conservatory right next to the disabled toilet/baby changing area which was filthy and whose door was constantly swinging open and a hand dryer stuck on. People walking through the restaurant with McDonald’s to eat it in the beer garden. I Ordered the chicken breast in pancetta, absolutely no pancetta and the chicken breast had a leg bone in it so it wasn’t chicken breast! The meat was covered in skin and full of cartilage and grisly. For 2 mains and two drinks the bill was £70! We then sat at the bar to kill time before going to the theatre. I asked the waiter for the same Italian wine I’d had with my meal to be barked at that “ I’ve NOT POURED any Italian tonight so you haven’t drunk any Italian wine here”! Which I CLEARLY ordered from the menu. He then proceeded to swear at every ticket he was given behind the bar and go off slamming doors and cupboards! Really unprofessional and unpleasant man. I happily will never go here ever again.
