   The setting was nice, the service wasn't great, and the food was a hit or a miss -love steak, undercooked batter on onion rings, and dry chicken bon bons.

   Guy came to pour our drinks and whilst he was doing this girl came to take our order. I couldn’t even see her and instead of her waiting until drinks were poured she was taking my husbands order. I thought it would have been banners if she had if waited until drinks were poured and then ask me first what I would like instead of my husband. I ordered GF obviously I couldn’t have onion rings that were on menu but no substitute given no me. I go to other restaurants and when their is something nit suitable ie like onion rings chef would out sauté mushrooms on plate After all I’m paying the same price but things are being removed from my plate. The food was good and it was lively but it is very expensive.

   The restaurant was quiet - given we decided on a pre-theatre meal. Ahmed was a lovely host - who gave us the right amount of space between meals and drinks, along with engaging conversation which made the whole experience very enjoyable and personable. Highly recommend for quality of food, cocktails and friendliness of staff

    Dinner was served in the bar this evening, which has lovely booths. We went for the 2 course pre theatre menu (£30 each) Great variety of tasty starters, and for the main we paid extra for the steak (£8 each), which was cooked exactly right. Excellent choice of wines as well, including our favourite, the Jumper! We will be back!

    We dined on the Pre theatre on St Patricks Night service was faultless the Manager was bubbling over and Eimer was delightful. We had 2 duck starters and the Soup of the day was mushroom and very enjoyable they were. 3 of the party had Hake for mains and the presentation was lovely but perhaps a little dry they were generous fillets. I had Steak cooked medium for an £8 supplement I have to be honest I have had better steak it was grisly and tough and had there not been pepper sauce I would have struggled. Lovely selections of wine and no complaints with the Parfait for dessert.

    Unfortunately not enjoyable. Had to send back the starter as it wasn’t as described and the main was tasteless, unsure the chicken had any seasoning at all. Really really bad pricey food. Neither the waiter nor the Manager checking us out asked how our food was.

    Delicious food and well priced for a pre theatre meal however not a huge selection to choose from on the fixed menu - one each of chicken, fish, steak (with supplement) and tofu. Service generally excellent however after being seated at the table and having been offered a water, we still had to request it and also had to request someone to come and take our order. It would not stop us returning, though. This was our first visit since the onset of the pandemic and we were keen to return owing to previous excellent experiences.

    We had the pre theatre meal which we found good value at £27 per head for 3 course. A decent choice for each course and all very tasty - I thoroughly enjoyed the Brownie! Only 2 little problems , I had ordered a brandy and it didn’t arrive until half way through my main course. The waitress did apologise for the delay. Secondly only one coffee was delivered instead of 2 but was remedied efficiently by a very pleasant waiter. I would recommend this restaurant and definitely will return again.

    The service was quite slow, however I’m putting this down to getting up and going again post lockdown. Upon arrival the restaurant manager took our details but never came back to seat us, although the lady manager took good care of us after that. The steak was ordered medium rare but was served well done. The food and service in general was good with the exception of trolleys of glasses being pushed too and from the bar area, didn’t do much for the ambiance.

    The Opentable website says it’s dinner at the Fitzwilliam Restaurant, but it isn’t : the restaurant has not reopened. Instead it’s dinner in the bar. Good cocktails to start but after that all downhill. Cauliflower curry phenomenally bland and a steak ordered medium rare which was the wrong side of medium with a peppercorn sauce devoid of peppercorns. Then waited 15 minutes for pudding to arrive but it hadn’t been entered onto the order system so we could have waited forever and we gave up defeated. Glad it wasn’t our first dinner out post lockdown.

    Very good experience. We felt very welcome. Atmosphere was nice and quiet, tables were spread out very well and I felt that this restaurant is really taking social distancing seriously. Not only that, the food was delicious. The 3-day gravy was to die for. I have found my new favourite restaurant in my hometown.
