Great mains, pity about the chips
Came for lunch with my sister. We loved our Thai-style mains which were amazing with lots of flavour, very impressive for a vegetarian restaurant.
But the service was below average and the chips were too terrible to finish.
When we arrived at 1.40, we had to wait 20 minutes while they got our table ready. OK, so we didn't have a reservation, but the restaurant was only half full. There was no reason to make us wait at all.
We ordered the chips as a side dish and they looked delicious. But, when we tasted them, they were overcooked and swimming in oil so we left most of them. We expected a lot more for $10!
When the waiter asked if everything was ok, we said we really didn't like the chips and he said 'That's funny, I love them' and that was it. He didn't offer us anything else or take them off our bill. Also, when we didn't leave a tip, he looked annoyed.
I was really excited about visiting Vega, and the mains were just fantastic, but the rest of the experience was really disappointing.

Wonderful meat and side orders, but the service...not so
We goes to the restaurante to have a lunch. We often goes to this place when we want to eat a absolutely good food.
Like everytime we go, was the food delicius and conforting. However in this time, the saloon aren't clear and organized. The floor was dirty and when we asked to the waiter if he can clear it, he answers us for wait and it wasn't.
My Family and I get decepcioned with this attendiment.
On the next time we won't will choose this restaurant to lunch.

Delicious meal, but not enough space.
We came for lunch with our colleagues on Sunday and had to wait about 1 hour because there were no tables left in the restaurant. Many people like us were also waiting, and they don’t accept reservations. It felt like such a waste of time.
But the rest was really good — especially the taste and the service.
If you are looking for traditional Pakistani food, The Royal Salimar is the best place to go. The atmosphere of the restaurant was cosy and incredible.It is a really friendly and family place.Thefood was very delicious and there were a lot of dishes to choose from and all of them were very tasty. The staff were very knowledgeable.The restaurant was nosy and crowded,eventhough the service was very good. I would highly recommend this little vibrant restaurant. I will definitely return soon.
My husband and I went to Cosmos Restaurant last month. It was amizing and special day out.
When we arrived at the place we felt the good vibes of the ambience, the inside of the restaurant eas decorated with soft lighting and fresh flowers.
First, we got the menu card and we decided yo ordered the main dish, it was seafood soup with rice. We found it very tasty, and also we ate the popular rosted beef which included a portion of fries, it was cooked well and flovourful.
The staff were helpful all the time. Futhermore they made you feel like at home gave you a warm welcome. In addition the server come by more than enough times to see if you needed anything.
Althrougt, the issues with the car parking (there wasn't enough space to park).
I will definitely come back.

If you wish to explore the traditional taste of Turkey, this restaurant is a great choice. It’s a truly family friendly place, and the staff are very knowledgeable.
There was a wide variety of dishes, and the ingredients were fresh too. We really enjoyed the day with our friends. However, the car parking area was quite busy during our visit. Other than that, I can honestly say it’s one of the best places to visit.
I’ll definitely come again with my friends and family to enjoy more time there. The pricing is also very reasonable. 10/10☺️
Last week I went with my friend to Pizza Italia in the city centre ,and I was plesantly impressed abaut the promt and friendly service.The relaxing atmosphere create a calming vibe and the traditionale yet modern decor delights your eyes while you savor the delicious dishes. Although we were very late,the waitress was friendly and recomandet the most delicious pizza with seefood.If we are arrived,I noticed that is a very rustic and authentic italian restaurant of 5 stars.However the pizza was delightful,tasty,spicey and with fresh vegetables. Even though I can't complain abaut the staff and ambience,and the prices are very expensive...they make extra charge. Be carreful!All in all was a fantastic experience.I stil recommend a visit!
If you love authentic Italian pizza, you must check out the pizza hut. The restaurant is tiny, but it has a great vibe. The pizza tastes great, and the food arrived quickly. The staff were extremely charming. There's a massive choice of toppings. I can honestly say that the mushroom pepperoni pizza was very tasty. The desserts were delicious. Great value for money. I would Highly recommend.

Delicious food, but poor service
I went to the AMA restaurant with my friends yesterday. It’s Kurdish restaurant. I had never been there before. It’s located in a crowded area of Smethwick, but we could find parking easily. Although the food was delicious, the service was poor and slow.
In addition, the portions were generous, but the presentation was underwhelming. The AMA restaurant is friendlier than the previous one that I visited. Even though it is located in a noisy area, I will go there for dinner in the future, because the food is suitable for my palate.
If you want to try authentic Indian food, The Spice Garden is a great choice. The interior was elegant, and the tables were neatly arranged. The staff were attentive and served the dishes with care. Although the restaurant was noisy because it was popular, the food was absolutely worth it. Each dish was rich in flavour and beautifully spiced. I particularly enjoyed the butter chicken and garlic naan. I would highly recommend this restaurant for its excellent food and friendly service.
YES for the place, but NO for the food
I heard about new sushi restaurant in town, and as a big fan of sushi, I was really excited to visit. I went there with my boyfriend, and we ordered two plates from the main menu and three from the conveyor trays. The ambience and service were so nice. But unfortunately, when we tried the food, we were disappointing. The portions were very small, the quality was below the average, and the taste was nothing special. Overall, it was a bad experience, and i wouldn't recommend this restaurant.
