Our first visit since a change in management and what a difference! Very friendly efficient service which saw the chef coming out to clarify my wife's dietary issues, before 2 very tasty meals following. And reasonably priced too. Well be back. Well done folks!

A very comfortable restaurant with very friendly staff. Good menu. Parking at the rear.Usual problem - drinks a bit pricey.

Very disappointing. Started poorly as the only beers were lagers which none of us drink. Surely it can't be too much trouble to have some bottles of ale available. So we ordered soft drinks but they were overpriced. £2-50 for a splash of blackcurrant with water is ridiculous. The starters were ok but 3 of 4 main meals were awful. One meal was far too salty, another over cooked so that the pasta stuck together and the risotto was a dreadful congealed lump.

Had my 60th here.catered for 12 people and the food was incredible and the portions are huge. The staff are so lovely, albeit a little slow, but it was a busy Saturday night.Will definitely return.

We went for a pre-booked meal on New Year's Eve. We turned up a few minutes early and were seated without a problem. Things started reasonably well, the restaurant is very nice, with an atmosphere and lovely smells. However, things were a little....chaotic. there were 5 or 6 waiting staff, but they all seemed to be serving all the tables, randomly, so one would take our order, another would bring things - at some point. On each course, one of us got food 5 minutes after the others. Some things, we had to ask for a few times, including asking if we could order more drinks. At one point, we were asked if we had finished, before our food had even been brought out! I would think that allocating staff to certain tables would make things a lot easier, although it was explained to us that 3 staff hadn't turned up that night, so maybe it was just a bad night, and the staff seemed to do their best. I guess people were staying longer than expected, or people were turning up without booking, as there were a lot of people waiting for their tables. They were seated (and stood) right behind our table, which made things a bit uncomfortable The food - garlic bread, steak & duck were all great, although the peppercorn sauce was more like a Diane. However, the fries & chunky chips weren't very fresh (or had been kept warm), as they were quite dry. We also had to get the bill recalculated as we were charged incorrectly.

Came in for pizza and ended up having a lovely evening and ate far more than I intended as the food, service and ambiance were much better than I had expected and all the staff were really friendly. I would certainly recommend it to anyone wanting a substantial meal for a good price and the Peroni was spot on too!

Booked in for 4 of us for a meal, and the restaurant is nice. The table placement, where we were, wasn't great as we were against a wall at the back, and it was really dark. The drinks were ordered, and 2 of the 4 were wrong, but the staff put it right, so fair play, but it's hard to get 4 soft drinks wrong-and they were expensive! When the meals came, one was a risotto, but unfortunately, you could have cemented a wall with it,it was that stodgy-it was the same with the carbonara, apparently,and my meal was very salty. The lobster ravioli was good though, so I'm told. All in all,an overpriced, mediocre experience.

Told to F**k off by owner after calling to make a genuine complaint . Pizza and garlic bread were undercooked and tasted bought in. My chicken was reheated and the sauce was like water, completely tasteless. The red wine was served freezing cold! Complained in the restaurant, called when we got home to leave honest feedback instead of writing a review, eventually I was told to F*ck off having been nothing but honest and polite. Poynton is a small place, we will spread the word and pop in to give face to face feedback over the next few days! Avoid at all cost!

Visited here for an evening meal and the food was delicious! Compliments to the chef- extremely tasty. The ribs are really good and the tortellini superb. If it was down to the food only I would give top marks and more. The ambiance of the restaurant is good but I only gave four stars due to the service! It was not bad but very amateur. Two very inexperienced girls who appeared more interested in chatting together than serving the customers. A professional front of house waiter and this would be an absolutely fantastic restaurant,

Excellent food, lovely staff and great atmosphere. Been here a few times. Sometimes you have to wait a bit, but perfection isn?t quick!

I wanted to say a big thanks for the fantastic night we had for my husband?s retirement do with 20 of his colleagues. Nothing was too much trouble, food and service were a credit to you. We had a lovely evening. You went above and beyond to make it memorable. Thank you!
