The best restaurants in United Kingdom

This was our third visit to the restaurant. We were really happy the first two times but this visit was even better than previous ones. We were celebrating our son‘s birthday with his partner and all four of us ordered different things and tried each other’s dishes. We loved the sev puri chat pre-starters and then shared 4 starters. All were great but the paneer garlic chilli pepper and gunpowder prawns were particularly good. For mains we had grilled Marsala fish (sea bass), chingri malai prawn curry, Malabar coastal chicken curry and the chef made a chicken tikka pathia for us despite it not being on the menu. The chef varied the degree of spicing on a couple of the dishes as requested. We also had rice, bread and mixed tarka dal. We enjoyed everything. The dal was particularly good. We had a really lovely evening and would 100% recommend, just wish we didn’t live over 300 miles away but we’ll definitely be back on our next visit to Newcastle.

absolute amazing food and company and staff are amazing. We visit this restaurant quite regular and love everything thing about it, atmosphere is great and a good night out for me and the hubby

The food was super yummmy and the staff were so friendly. The food and drinks arrived really quickly and tasted amazing.

Fabulous location, amazing food, staff were brilliant and great atmosphere… Best restaurant in Newquay…. Can’t say much more!

I recently attended an evening dinner service with my family and was rather underwhelmed. My expectations were high due to this establisment seemingly having decent reviews and on arrival the setting and service really lent itself to what I believed was going to be a wonderful evening. Unfortunatley the food was just bad. Not inedible, in fact I finished my plate of gnocci as I was pretty hungry, but just bad. My bruschetta, one of my all time favourite italian dishes, an absolute classic, was incredibly dissapointing. Just being a heap of sloppy chopped tomatoes whose delicate flavours were completley over powered by garlic on a thin slice of soggy toast. Awful. I will say that the presentation and portion sizes were very nice, but the quality and flavour in the cooking was lacking in its entirety. In terms of authenticity, centuries of culture and cooking are crying out in pain and anger as their name gets dragged through the dirt. I wasn't suprised for the carbonara to be a cream based sauce, thats pretty typical in Britain as it is a mild technical skill to pull off a classic carbonara and get it to the table. But even so it was just so heavy and flavourless that my sister couldn't even finish it and after I tried some, I couldn't blame her. I will say the Oysters were nice with a fun presentation, Mersea oysters are lovely. But lets face it, all they had to do there was open them and put them on a bed of ice. No cooking involved. I wasn't going to bother writing a review, bad food is bad food and I usually don't bother, but thought I would check them out in more detail incase we were just unlucky and had come on a bad evening. What I didnt expect to see was the sheer volume of bile, vitriol and belittling present in the responses to the honest comments and reviews of people that seemed to have a very similar experience to mine. At that point I thought it pertinent to ensure more voices are heard. I await your incoming tantrum with amusement and hope it comforts you that your imbecilic, emoji filled response will certainly trouble me for the rest of my days. The horror. Don't bother about telling me not to come back. You don't need to state the obvious. If you ever do find it within the grasp of your ego to listen to some constructive criticism, please look to the following. Make better food. You have a nice setting, decent staff and clearly some of the ingrediants you are using are of good quality. You have all the potential for something pretty special. Send your chefs to Italy, find some nice little local restaurants and find some inspiration to move forwards with. Because honestly I've had better pasta at a Wetherspoons at twice the quality and a 1/5th of the price.

Sin duda calidad precio muy buena. Marisco de calidad cocinado al momento y a buen precio. Nosotros pedimos los mejillones al vino blanco, gambas que eran cigalas com mantequilla y vieyras con mantequilla.

I have now stayed at the Dakota for over 7 years now and have loved every single time. The service is great. The one thing I love is the cocktails made at the bar. One that I really enjoy is a coconut daiquiri. Everywhere else I have been they have never been able to make one as good as here at the Dakota. Tonight I asked Rachel to make me one and it was amazing. The service given by Rachel, Ross and Dan was fantastic and I wouldn’t think twice about coming back. Thank you so much xx

We arrived without a reservation, and Eren immediately seated us. She was very kind, discreet, and professional from the start, accommodating our needs and explaining every dish as it arrived. We had a mixed appetizer, grilled fish, and meat. Everything was delicious. The other young woman who served us was also incredibly lovely. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming. Highly recommended!

I’ve dined at Kohinoor many times since discovering it back in 2022 but I hadn’t had a takeaway until last night. I can confirm that their food is just as lovely to take away as it is when you eat in. The garlic chilli chicken I had was one of the best I’ve ever had and the portion sizes are massive! Hands down the best Indian restaurant in Southampton without a doubt. Love it here

13 of my friends and I came here for my birthday and it was amazing! The service was incredible and the food was even better! Lots of choice on the menu, it was delicious! They went above and beyond to make my birthday special! Would recommend this restaurant to all!

Qué gran noche en Tortuga Bay yo y mi amigo, las bebidas eran absolutamente fantástico y Max entregó un servicio fantástico toda la noche

Bussin' pizza, great value, and great drinks too. Don't know any pizza place in London with cheaper pizza than this. Love it.

I’ve been coming to Fifi’s for years, and since they transitioned to a pizzeria, I’m happy to say the quality of the food has remained exceptional. Their pizzas are absolutely lovely, with a thick Neapolitan-style base and fresh, great-tasting ingredients. They also offer a fantastic lunchtime deal that’s excellent value and even includes a glass of wine. For those who need it, their gluten-free pizza bases are delicious too! The staff are always friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome every time. They even bring colouring activities for the kids, which is such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommend Fifi’s for great food and a family-friendly atmosphere!

We had a lovely lunch for my sister’s birthday. The staff were very friendly and the meal was tasty. The pub is off the beaten track but it’s worth the trip. Whilst we were there there was a sizeable herd of wild deer in the field opposite. A great country pub!

Went last night for my birthday and the food was amazing ! Excellent early bird menu-great value . Fantastic customer service also. Thank you :)
