The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in East Midlands

Had brilliant birthday meal at Smoke & Ice Retford. Delicious food great atmosphere staff couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly if they tried. All the staff were great at helping my mum who is a wheelchair user and took time explain menu and sauces ect. Thanks again for the happy birthday song all 10 of us really enjoyed it and would definitely be back. 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Knockout shop - perfect place to get what’s needed to cook up a storm. Invaluable to have the expertise on hand of the team for advice too!

Came here and enjoyed a drink and bar food. Very good price and made to feel so welcome. Will be back and hopefully come to one of the events they have on

Truly delicious takeaway, cannot recommend the chicken tikka masala enough! The mushroom rice was astonishing! And the chicken tikka rice was also amazing. The title says healthy and delicious, we can promise you it most definitely was! We will be using them lots and lots in the future.

Absolutely amazing food great service friendly staff 5***** look forward to our next visit .can highly recommend

Delicious, But a bit messy. But this can be a nice thing (With plates). But without plates this can be problematic

The most perfect and very wellbeing person where you must try it your self

As we entered we were greeted and sat down at the first table In front of the door and it was quite cold, so we asked to move and they sorted a table closer to the inside. We sat down and we asked for information about the menu and we got a Kbbq(pork belly and beef) And as a side to share between the four of us a noodle with black bean sauce. As with previous experiences in Korean restaurants I didn't expect they wouldn't have brought any sauce dips, lettuce or the renown Kimchi. Which usually are free of charge. As we were cooking the meat one of the waiters came to cut it up for us without asking us or making sure the meat was cooked enough thus making it harder for us to flip on the grill because of the little pieces. We ordered a Hot pot and when it arrived they didn't take away the old side plates for the Kbbq, and we asked for some bowls to eat the soup and we waited and at the third time we asked they brought us the bowls and we started eating The plates were left there until the end of the meal. The staff didn't feel very welcoming and wasn't friendly, we expected more from a restaurant with such a high quality review. When we asked for the bill and they added the service charge, which was definitely not deserved that came up to nearly £12. We left the restaurant unhappy and somewhat still hungry because the portions were not enough. Not coming back and not recommending it to others, the food isn't worth the price and the fixed menu will leave you hungry and unsatisfied.

Perfect! Best pie meal ever had with yummy chips and greenest broccoli have ever seen! Kathy so lovely. Very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Conocí a mis padres en la ciudad por unas copas y comida. La señora recordó a mi padre por su nombre. Nos sentamos rápido. La comida llega caliente y fresca, sin duda volvería de nuevo

Went with a Party group of 15 friends [table reservation £100 deposit returnable]. First and foremost the Waiting Staff were superb, and strategically left 1x staff dedicated permanent + slightly detached for very prompt attention to our group at all times. Food quality was very good and served promptly by multiple staff. Staff were patient at seperate bill payments from within the group, with the final outstanding amount subtracted from the deposit, with the balance returned in cash. Smoothly run and no fuss or fluster.

We ate here as a couple on a Saturday evening. We booked last minute as we were staying locally that weekend for a trip, but they were very accommodating for us. The restaurant was busy and had a good atmosphere. We had starter and a main each and a bottle of wine. We couldn’t fit in a desert as we were stuffed! The food quality here is brilliant, so much flavour. Also the food was hot and portion sizes were great value for money. Dispute being busy the staff were friendly and attentive. We would absolutely return if we were in the area again. 10/10!!

Excellent Turkish food 7 years down, still present fans of Mezze Mangal✨ I still love the lamb shish and kofte. They are still served up with amazing accompaniments. Fresh salad with pomegranate juice and perfect portions. Alif served us and was lovely and hospitable😍

Delicious and great value for money! The paneer rice is my favorite

Was visiting the area and came across The Otters Deli, first thing i noticed was the staff, all amazingly helpful and friendly. Had several items of food and drink which was all very nice. Definitely a place to visit and i’ll certainly be heading back
