The food is pretty good quality, but the small plates are too small. They recommended 2-3 portions per person. I'm a grown man but I'm not a big big eater, and I wasn't full after 4 small plates.
If you're serving a prawn plate and you serve only 4 prawns, rethink what you're doing.

My reason for this score is small portion. I have ordered 2 naans and still wasn't enough for everyone to eat. Food was good is jut not enough couple peaces of meat and just souce. I have spend £40 and family is still hungry.
I don't recommend this place. They take far too long to serve (isn't chippy supposed to be fast food?). There is a huge thick plastic barrier separating customers from the staff (what are they afraid of?) and they put on minimal amounts of salt and vinegar (when it's asked for). You have no way of reaching for the salt n vinegar because it's hidden away (like a precious treasure trove would be hidden). Fish and chips were OK, nothing special. If you want proper good chippy, go to St Anne's on the Sea. It seems that getting good fish n chips in the UK now is increasingly difficult. Just another symptom of a country in decay I'm afraid
A great weekend catch-up with friends started with a lovely Rioja in 'The Wine Kitchen' next door (under the same ownership), moving on to the comfy surroundings of 'Eighteen The Cross' for an early bird meal. From crispy Calamari, to generous and succulent Steak Frites, to perfect Espresso Martinis, I can safely say all were the finest examples I've enjoyed in a long while! Planning a return trip (we're half an hour's drive away) to this Cheshire gem soon and hoping the family like it as much as we did. Kudos to Michael, Christine and Head Chef Bradley!
Pre ordered our food 6 hours before we came, got there and was completely mistreated as we’re not fasting. Why take the order and say it will be ready? We left with empty bellies as we felt insulted…
This is a lovely place for Sunday roast - the interior of the building is beautiful and all the servers were very friendly. The food was great and I was super impressed with the vegan roast option! Would definitely come again!
Shanti is amazing! The food is super flavorful, fresh, and authentic. The butter chicken and garlic naan were next level. Great vibes, friendly staff, and perfect spice. Can’t wait to come back!
Honeslty love this place! Winter or summer the atmosphere is fantastic, large outdoor seating area perfect for people watching and inside is warm and cosy. The food is fantastic my personal favourite is the prawns and salmon salad! Staff and brilliant and I will be back time and time again keep it up.
Awful from start to finish.
Young girl waitress jumper covering hands and pink crocs on. All drinks from bottles and cans! Poor olives. Waited far too long for god awful dishes. Seafood risotto was chewy and inedible. Cannelloni meat tasted like dog meat. I'm going to guess frozen, reheated in the microwave which we saw, then in oven to make like lava. Mondello should not call himself a chef serving the nonsense we just saw. I hope people read this and stick to an actual Italian.
