Meadow Farm (Ecclesfield) - Chris -

Rating:

Been going here occasionally for the last few years and the food has always been fairly OK.

Recently went for a birthday meal on the 21st of July and the food was truly awful. The sister-in-law had egg, chips and beans, and the eggs were hard and cold. My mate's baked beans looked like they'd been scraped from the bottom of a burnt pan. Portion sizes also seem a lot smaller than before and not very filling. And for the price, you want to at least feel full after your meal, but no.

We did complain, as it was just shocking to be fair, and they emailed the sister-in-law some 40% off vouchers but I don't think we'll be going back again.

I just can't work out how a chef can mess up a couple of eggs and a portion of beans so badly. I wish I knew how to upload pictures on here so you could see how bad it was. The chef needs sending back to college or sacked.

Meadow Farm was a decent place to eat a few years ago but recently just seems to be going downhill. I've heard good things about their breakfast and carvery though, but it's just too inconsistent for anything more. Please sort it out, would be a fantastic place for the family if the chef could actually cook.

Zara's (Crookes) - Jeana Grey -

Rating:

As noted here before, the customer services is a nightmare and the food is ordinary and very pricey. As almost all "Indian restaurants" in the UK, this one is also Pakistani, not Indian. Different spice palate.

I ordered the mushroom dish, I got 1.5 mushrooms and a lot of other vegetables. It didn't taste very good. I complained and the owner said "I'll tell the chef." That was it about my non-mushroom dish.

I got a bill of 30 pounds for 2 people! I asked to get 3 boxes for the leftovers, I got one. I asked the owner he said "don't worry we didn't take your left over for ourselves". Seriously? I wanted to know why the hell you mixed the left overs from 2 different people. "All my customer never complained" he said. I told him that I don't like to taste the saliva of other people in my food. "Fine fine fine" he said and showed me to the door. What an expensive nightmare.

Bay of Bengal (Gleadless) - Lorna Barnett -

Rating:

Very disappointed. Never had a lamb pasanda that was a salmon coloured puree of no substance and extremely sweet.

Certainly won't be ordering takeaway again from here.

Great knowledgeable staff, good choice of gins, beers and lager. Marie has an amazing work ethic, the woman never stops! Ben is always very welcoming and hard working. We really enjoy this pub, good atmosphere and friendly.

Mogul Room (Hunters Bar) - Tom Xavids -

Rating:

Very poor quality. Very expensive. Won't be eating here again and would recommend avoiding. Uncomfortable surroundings, too.

Mamma Mia Pepe (Hillsborough) - Tim Shirt -

Rating:

Been here a few times to eat in or for takeaway. Every time the food has been delicious. Got to be one of the best Italians in Sheffield. Excellent value for money. We feed our family of four for just over £20.

Urban Choola (Hunters Bar) - Lucy Kitto -

Rating:

More interesting menu than most Indian takeaways, which is why we went for it.

Very quick. Friendly staff. But we thought the curries were expensive for what we got. The prawn was £10.50 for a small portion. 8 prawns (admittedly big ones) in OK sauce. Takeaway should be cheaper.

Butlers Balti House (City Centre) - Adrian Webster -

Rating:

What a great Indian restaurant. Was thinking about it after reading the reviews but some friend went in and told us it was amazing so had to try for myself. Had a great time and food was amazing. Booked in for my birthday party now. Thank-you Butlers for great food and service.

Mogul Room (Hunters Bar) - Laura Hanson -

Rating:

Went in with friends on a Saturday. Staff were attentive and had pleasing smiles, which made the atmosphere even better. And to top it all off the food was very tasty and would definitely recommend the Mogul Room.

Prince of Wales (Banner Cross) - Mrs M Smith -

Rating:

Having heard good reviews I decided to take my grandson today. Starters were good. Grandson's pizza was good, but my beer battered fish was disgusting. Chips were dreadfully overdone, almost black. And the fish, a pathetic piece, was wet in the centre, and the batter no better than the local chippy!

All in all extremely poor and couldn't eat it. Admittedly they refunded the cost of the fish and chips but I was bitterly disappointed! Not cheap, either, but was happy to pay the price for a decent meal!

Sword Dancer (Handsworth) - Ms Moffatt -

Rating:

Been many times but since the new landlord took over the food isn't the same. Been today, ordered steak sizzle. Came without mushrooms, peppercorn sauce, cheese, nor peas. Complained but won't be visiting again.

Beijing City (Greenhill) - Leigh Newbould -

Rating:

Absolutely dreadful overpriced takeaway tonight. Had to take a dish back because it was wrong. Tasteless overpriced rubbish.

Virtually empty restaurant shows how far this place has gone downhill since it first opened. Kept giving it the benefit of the doubt over the years.

Felt ripped off by the previous owner over a Sunday meal once and didn't use for a couple of years. After tonight's meal then I'm sorry never again!

Gigi's Cucina (Nether Green) - Wendy Bolton -

Rating:

What an amazing restaurant. Had a family reunion last night with twenty three of us! The food was really lovely, especially the steak. The staff were fabulous, and the decor wonderful!

The food was cooked fresh from scratch so worth the wait, which was not very long at all. My family were wowed by this place and will definitely return again.

Thank you Gigi for making our evening so lovely. Recommend family get-togethers here. Thank you to you all for working so hard for us.
