The best restaurants in East Midlands

Visited Woodhall Spa to see 617 Squadron “Dambusters Memorial “and needed some lunch.Had looked at Tea House on line and it suggested booking advisable…but thought we would take a chance.On arrival some folks were queuing up outside and we thought we could be out of luck.But no,they had booked and were quickly shown inside,the waiter said he had a table on the terrace which we took.We both ordered haddock and chips and it came in about 15 minutes and I must say one of the best pieces of haddock I have had.Everything was cooked well and hot.Very friendly and attentive staff,well worth the visit.

I'm a resident of nearby Beacon Hill. I begun visiting Grille 23 & Bar a couple of months ago & have returned 2--3 times per week ever since. This place is fantastic & great for after-work relaxation. When the rainbow colored ties were worn, there was in immediate sense of safety. I knew that this is the place for me. Adam, Ryan, & Sevan provide top-notch service. Hugo is a master wine guy and seems to know everything about it. Hugo is attentive and even approached me at the bar and talked to me. The clientele is high standard & I've had enlightening conversations. Made new friends along the way. Recommend the Prime Meatloaf paired with Chateau Fontanes Cabernet Sauvignon. Thanks Grille 23 for never ceasing to impress me. 👍

Amazing, amazing, amazing!!!! the food was 10/10 atmosphere 10/10 service 11/10 Very polite and attentive. I would recommend and I will be back! Thank you to everyone at Gandhi

Callum and Raif are legends, awesome place

Great food nice staff and a friendly atmosphere.

It provides an authentic Sri Lankan food experience in a nice ambience. Service is excellent and not expensive either. Highly recommend it for both formal dining and friendly gatherings.

Being service by the bar staff Amy really highlighted our night as we had gone for a personal bottomless brunch and she was quick with the service and so friendly. I’ve never known someone to give the atmosphere she brought she made us feel special and made the night that so much better

Went here last Saturday night with our friends and were seated upstairs. We have been here many times in the past. As usual food was tasty, drinks were lovely and service excellent.

Never fails to impress! The starter’s are fab large portions! Steak always cooked to perfection, all accompaniments especially the scoop chips are spot on! Only suggestion would be bring nav the 3 course menu midweek lunchtime at today’s price I’m sure you’d be full 🙂

This was our second trip to the restaurant and our expectations were generally met in almost every area. The onion soup was full of flavour. The chicken meal although nice was slightly underwhelming in taste. The 12 oz steak was an absolute highlight ( be warned it is a lot to consume along with the soup). The sticky toffee was nice and as it was my partner's birthday they done a nice job with the sparklers I provided. The resturant was quite full with others using the groupon options. It would have been nice to give my partner a complimentary birthday drink. The champagne in the glass when it was first bought was slightly flat and had to be returned which was slightly disappointing.

Go most weeks. Good city centre location.. friendly staff. Would be a great shame iif it had to close

Love the bento box lunch and the loose leaf teas

This will be our 2nd night when we enjoyed dinner in this restaurant. It was still the best Thai Resto in Nottingham. The place were so accessible, parking is just around the corner. I can’t describe how tasty the food. The serving and the service were excellent.

Our favourite place to eat whenever we visit Derby - great food, amazing surroundings - a delight for all the senses

wonderful nice staff lovely food a definite recommendation
