I've lived around Milton Keynes for a number of years and hadn't realised there was an Italian in Woburn. It was my wife's birthday and we booked for a Friday lunch. Whilst not busy, the restaurant had a welcoming feel to it. The staff were really friendly (especially the lady originally from Tring), and the food was fantastic. I'd recommend the mussels (tomato sauce and fresh chunky bread) and the veal saltimbocca. There are plenty of pasta options that i intend to try next time. I will definitely be looking to book again in the future.

There used to be lots of great restaurants in south/ central Beds but over the last 10 years or so they've dwingled down to a number of pretty average ones serving food no better than a microwaved take away on a plate. Well we'd heard good things about the Thai at Woburn and the ambience seemed good so booked a table for Thursday before Valentines day. I'd asked for a quiet table as we often find restaurants so noisy these days and we weren't disappointed when we were shown to a pleasant table in the RHS room which was empty . So full marks for the welcome and heeding our request. We opted for the more expensive set meal for 2 (£26 each). It came pretty quickly, a little too quickly really as we wanted a leisurely meal and time to talk. First course we opted for the pancakes and crispy duck. Six pancakes and barely enough duck which certainly wasn't crispy but otherwise OK. The main course arrived hot on it's heals, boiled rice, veg in thai sauce, chicken red curry, beef strips in black bean sauce, sweet and sour prawns with pineapple in sweet sauce. The plates were cold and as it was a chilly evening and the room wasn't too warm so the food was not very hot to start with and in fact fairly cold by the time we finished. The sweet prawns were quite nice but there were only two each, and the chicken curry didn't scale any great culinary heights. We'd had a similar Thai kit curry from Sainsburys the week previously costing a fraction of the cost and not much inferior to what the Woburn Thai managed. So to summarise. Venue and friendly waitress service very good, Prices average but would have preferred to have had better quality food, preparation and quanty and paid more. Quality of food -poor, felt like the ingredients had come out of the fridge and only made acquaintance with the spices very briefly in the microwave before being served. I've had far better take aways. Service much too fast for what we wanted, no condiments on the table or offered at all. Plates cold and no hot plates to keep food warm.
