Sheffield Restaurant Reviews (Page 29)

Fox House is a magnet to the people of Sheffield, with a history of their youth in Derbyshire.

It is pub grub and fun for like minded people. On YouTube's Fox House Foxy Bird, it is summed up in satire in 1966 with Bobby Moor the Sheffield Locarno and the Fox House bear garden.

Poor service - power cut meant we had to eat in the dark. These things happen, however the meal was nowhere near usual standard. The waiter seemed to think the lack of meat (5-6 pieces at best) in my dish a result of the poor lighting. The meal returned, after my complaint, with the comment "is that alright for you".

When it came to payment we were sent up the road to the Co-Op to get cash. Despite knowing that the card machine wasn't working when we arrived, they forgot to mention this.

Think we'll try somewhere different next time.

Second visit here. Lovely, family-run restaurant. Went with family this evening to celebrate my partner's 65th birthday. What a lovely meal! Staff very attentive, wonderful evening! Can not recommend this restaurant enough. Will definitely be going back.

Booked a table for 6 people at 6:15pm last night. We ordered our food at 6:45pm. No food by 7:30pm so we asked a waitress was there a problem and was told there was a delay of 45 minutes.

Waited another 30 minutes and asked again. The waitress said there was 3 tables before us. Still no food by 8:30pm so we left.

We wasn't the only people complaining and at no point did anyone explain or apologise. We won't be going back any time soon.

Just bought king prawn foo yung. It was so dry and tasteless it's gone in the bin. I will not be going back ever.

Whatever the occasion you will not be disappointed with this restaurant. The menu changes constantly according to the seasons, and there is always something for everyone.

Great attention is paid to accompanying vegetables - never overlooked and always fresh. Desserts are obviously made in the restaurant and the crème brûlée is wonderful.

My favourite starter is the brioche with mushroom and Alsace bacon. If duck is on the "special" menu (small supplement) my advice is go for it!

Staff and management friendly and very helpful. My favourite restaurant in this category of dining.

We have 6 reviews of Le Bistrot Pierre.

The best food by far. It's the benchmark that others are judged by.

The food was nice, apart from the frozen mash, which was put on a plate under a bowl and heated but not stirred. I put a little in my mouth and it was cold until I chewed, then it scalded my tongue.

The only reason I paid for any of the meal was the young lady behind the bar and the manager - really nice and helpful.

A lot of mix up but will try again.

I booked for 7-8 people for this evening and was warned that they were very busy tonight and food orders may take a while. However, this was not the case. Staff were friendly and welcoming and the overall service was excellent. The food was lovely and reasonably priced, and the meals were good sized portions. We really enjoyed our evening.

Ate there yesterday, very disappointed. Pizza with hardly any topping, poor fish and chips, tiny salad bowl was just limp lettuce. All over-priced for what we got.

Took ages to get served, despite not being busy. Unfriendly staff who couldn't be bothered to take our order, clear the table, or even take our money to pay the bill. Won't be going back in a hurry.

Friday 30th March

Booked table for 7pm. Sat down on time ordered food. Waited till 8:10pm and asked where the food was. Was told they would check. Eventually ate at 8:20pm. The fish was terrible and chips were the same.

This is not the first time but will definitely be the last. I used be be a regular at this place but will not go anymore. Very disappointed.

Went last night for tea with my parents. My partner ordered our food and my parents ordered their food a minute later.

Our steaks came out. I had a fillet, which was extremely chewy and tough. After waiting nearly 10 minutes we asked the waiter if the other 2 meals were on their way, to be told "yes, well erm I'm not sure".

Went to check and said because we ordered separately, about 6 orders had gone in between our orders. We literally ordered a minute apart and have the receipts to prove this!

Waited another 10 minutes and this was now an hour after ordering. We'd finished our meals, so my parents asked for a refund, which, to be fair, was dealt with straight away and the manager was very apologetic and couldn't understand why there was such a delay.

Hence to say we won't be going back any time soon and definitely won't be recommending to anyone else! Very disappointing!

We've had ploughman's salad a few times and it has always been nice. Went in today and there was no blue cheese, although we were offered extra cheddar or ham. Sausage rolls looked and tasted old. They were greasy and dried up.

When it came it had cheese slices put together and cut into triangles for the cheddar.

Not going to bother again. Very poor. If we hadn't have been in a rush we would have complained.

Absolutely disgusted! After ordering our 2 meals at 6:30pm and waiting until 7:30pm after seeing several other parties get their food, we went to complain and were just told "don't know what happened", then given our money back. No explanation from management. Wanted to give minus stars but not allowed.

Family celebration 2 hours ago. Amazing food, veggie and gluten-free. Staff, service, and cheers amazing. will be visiting again soon.

We have 4 reviews of Surf and Turf.

Ordered a take out and waited extremely long time while I was offered a job to work there. Should have said yes so I could have made my own food and left.

Manager has 0 people skills and loves himself and the sound of his own voice. Honestly surprised the place is still open. Yes the food is nice but that alone is not enough for me to go back again when there's plenty of other places to order from.

We have been regulars here for a long time. The food was acceptable but a little dry. Service was... well slow and haphazard. Eleanor is missed... she knew how to work front of house.

Had a fantastic meal. Thank you!

Too bad they are not family friendly! I called to book a table for 12 people and they said we do not like children to be in the restaurant at 6pm!

Also they requested a high deposit of £5 per person before they knew that we had children, which equalled £60 for the group!
