The best restaurants in Test Valley South East

Went in for food on a Saturday evening, didn't book and was told there were no tables but they could fit us in (despite being there for an hour and there still being free tables during our visit) the staff were pushing for us to get the buffet and didn't give us hardly any time to choose otherwise. It would have probably been beneficial to go for a set menu instead because not only would it have been cheaper but also you can take your food home (the buffet is no waste no take away) the starters were pretty good, and came out quickly but the mains were disappointing. Also a quick warning if you a pint of beer here they will charge you for two bottles! We paid £16 for two pints! The car park is pretty small and the cost of the overall meal was too much for what it was. Wouldn't go here again.

30mins before they shut at 11 and they’d already cleaned up. Was told No donor kebab available.considering it’s the only kebab shop in Romsey I wasn’t happy. Had to go to dominos for something to eat.

Great place top landlord and staff

What a top spot, loved it here, great service and food 👍

i get its a posh place to order food from but for a meal that costs 17 quid i was expecting a proper portion, wouldnt feed a mouse and i had squid on top of my meal, still hungry waste of 30 quid wont be going there again

Amazing location, and the excellent staff work so hard to meet our needs. Will come again!!

Only used the carpark to meet friends

Have stayedc2 nights and also had lunch on a number of occasions having visited Mottisfont. Delightful place to stay excellent friendly service and delicious food. Will highly recommend it.

Possibly the worst restaurant in Romsey. Interior dilapidated and filthy. Starter of “crispy potato” anyone? Two frozen potato croquettes boiled in oil and chucked on plate with a pile of old iceberg lettuce 😂 the rest although just about edible were not the best flavors, generally lots of different colored sauces with lumps in and the Raita sauce was so thin it barely held on to the poppadoms. There was a lot more that could added - but All in all definitely not worth your time nor your dosh!!

Not coming here again my chips was okay, my partners chips were horrible, left a dirty taste in mouth. The batter sausage and cod was soggy should be crispy. Curry sauce was really watery, won't recommend.

Do NOT eat here unless you are ok with waiting over an hour for your food.... I asked for a refund and left, starving, after 1 hour and 5 minutes waiting. They refunded with no apology.

Mains were OK but the vegetable rolls had no fillings and were flat.

Lovely family run place warm and friendly

We had a lovely evening here for my husband’s birthday in October. The staff even brought a surprise slice of chocolate cake to the table after dinner, which was so kind of them and made the occasion very special. Special thanks to Fabio and Jodie (I think it’s Jodie, apologies if name wrong!) who served us so perfectly. What a great bunch of staff! Also had some great kids Halloween activities to colour in and then stick on the wall. Pizza Express Andover has fast become our ‘go-to’ destination for a family meal out. My son has a couple of serious food allergies and the staff are always SO amazing with this (trust me, it’s not the same in other chain restaurants!). Also, in general Pizza express allergy labelling is fantastic and well laid out so we know exactly what to choose. We will continue to return due to the level of care and attention taken. Thank you ☺️

Great roast. Decent ale and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Staff attentive and friendly.
