Best KPortal Reviews

Staff did well although did forget we asked for squash and brought pure orange juice for a 18 month old. Food was not as expected. Expected thick grilled pork chops for £15, but they looked and tasted pan fried,bit dry and also very thin.
Spaghetti carbonara was also very bland.
The staff were inexperienced. Stood on my foot and didn't apologise. Couldn't understand English very well. I ordered lamb shank, it had little to none seasoning and the veg resembled the microwave in a bag type. The mash was like smash from a packet. The price I paid for this meal I'd have rather gone to KFC or mc Donald's. I do not recommend this restaurant and I'm surprised they are able to run as a business. Shocking is an understatement.
Had a meal here two roast beef dinners with a pint of lager and a large diet coke the service was slightly slow but the restaurant was busy and there was one member of waiting staff so it wasn't an issue. The beef was tender and veggies well cooked the downside was everything was drowned in gravy and the Yorkshire pudding and roast potatoes well let's say that I think everyones favourite aunty provided them but all in all a good meal ... Not sure why a large diet coke is £4 and a pint of lager costs less...
I wouldn't even give this restaurant a 1 star! Sevice was horrendous. Food worse than a microwave meal and well overcharged for what you get. The owner was also very rude. The owner made me feel like a criminal because my bank would not authorise payment at 1st until I acknowledged I was making the payment (fraud prevention safety action) and I had to wait 10 minutes before trying again. Obviously I patiently waited 10 minutes in order to pay the bill, I show the waiter and owner what had happened and asked for a beverage whilst I waited. The owner was very hostile and did not allow me a drink whilst I sat and waited to pay the outstanding balance with my two children may I add. I found this extremely embarrassing and insulting. I do not understand the reasoning behind this as I clearly was only killing time in order to pay my outstanding bill. I offered to show my bank balance as reassurance, show him the message I received from the bank to prove why this had happened and the response I recieved was most inconsiderate and there was zero hospitality or empathy. This inconvenience was not my fault and I was made to feel like a scam artist. A little understanding goes a long way. I most definitely not be returning and would also be telling all friends and family to avoid.
We left an hour ago. We told them my mother was a coeliac and was will get ill if she had gluten. The waitress and chef said that the roast was, I questioned the gravy as they seemed to think it was just the Yorkshire pudding. They told us they had a separate gravy for it, guess what they lied!!! My mother is now vomiting and it’s ruined our holiday, stay clear if you have a dietary restriction or allergies. Not happy
We came across this restaurant by chance and they managed to fit us in even though they were fully booked. There were nine of us dining so we were pleased as we hadn't booked a table. We had a positive experience. The food was delicious and the choice was really good. The kids meals were reasonable too. It's a shame quite a few of the reviews on here are negative as we had quite the opposite and enjoyed our meal out.
Shocked to see all these 1-star negative reviews. We were there last week and had a delicious meal, the spicy meatballs were very nice and the cottage pie was excellent, and the sponge puddings were lovely. Staff were friendly and helpful. I recommend this place to everyone, they don't deserve such bad reviews.
Overpriced, said soup of the day was tomato and basil, gave me minestrone cuppa soup in a bowl and charged £8 for it! The food was bland, the service was OK but very obviously new to the job.
