We visited the Anvil for dinner recently. The chicken wings, as others have said, are really good. They’re up there with Tribeca’s wings in my opinion for taste. I had chicken supreme for mains which was nice but not amazing and my wife had a pizza which she liked. We ordered a side of chips which were tasty. I did think the food was overpriced for what it was. For example we passed on desserts as they were so expensive. Furthermore, we arrived at 5pm and were told there was no pâté left which seemed strange. The waiter told us the soup was mushroom but then a different soup was put up on the chalkboard and we overheard the table beside being told that this was the soup of the day. A minor complaint but again when they are charging these prices, expectations are a little higher. We enjoyed our meal but I’m not sure I would be rushing back.

In spite of already having a party of 22 booked they accomodated us in the bar ( which often has food served there),There was a very varied choice on the menu including Turkey. The starters included the incredible " Hollywood Inn smokies " (Smoked Haddock) a great favourite of mine,.Spiced chicken wings ( one portion would easily do 2 people ) with a choice of how "hot" you wanted them and soup.The mains included their own "Hollywood Inn Burger", well known favourite, Fish and Chips ( to die for ) and Vegetarian tartlets with salad. Steaks cooked to taste and seasonal fair. Desserts included cheese cake,brownies, & Ice cream . As it was a special celebration we had our own cake which they kindly cut and served for us.The staff were very efficient , attentive & friendly without being intrusive.Their wine list was superb and their House Wines increadable. As usual there was no pressure on us to "eat up and leave" as there is in some places. We have eaten there several times and have always come away satisfied. I would recommend The Hollywood Inn to anyone interested in good food at a reasonable price.

Had a very good meal here last night.
Nice booth table and the service all night form the staff was excellent.
Two perfectly cooked steaks with good chips, potatoes, veg etc.
Nice enough garlic mushrooms to start and my wife enjoyed her prawn starter too.
I thought my cheesecake dessert (pear, vanilla and white chocolate) was a bit bland and enjoyed the taste of the pavlova my wife got a bit more.
Overall very good experience.

7. Butt Mullins Restaurant
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By thecountryspoon
I have very mixed feelings about Butt Mullins, others have sung its praise and I had high hopes when we dined here before Christmas, unfortunately something just didn’t sit right for me. The garlic mushrooms in my opinion were still raw in the middle, too thick to have been cooked through, however the beetroot relish and breads that came along side were divine. Mixed emotions.
The main course had me on the fence also with the ordering the Roasted Vegetable Tartlet, their divine chips were the only star as the “tartlet” was hard, dry and lacked the apparent vegetables, flavour or moisture to compliment the tart!Again not disgusted but not wowed. I will sing praise for the dessert that night, simple Christmas pudding, moist, fruity and melt in your mouth texture, thumbs up. Good service and lovely interior but, jury’s out on Butt Mullins for me.

Las Rada Wine & Tapas bar is a small, cosy bar that serves tasty tapas to share with your family and friends.
Reviewed By Louise_M3 - Ireland
The atmosphere is nice although not as nice as the previous location.
We had food from the early bird menu which was good value. But I was disappointed again by the vegetarian option. Every "vegetarian" dish seemed to have Parmesan, which of course is NOT vegetarian, either in it or on it. I thought I had dodged it only to be seved with a side of salad smothered in pesto with parmesan.
This immediately makes me wary of what else may be lurking undeclared in dishes. It's disgusting, but also a potential allergy risk if the chef is not up to speed on basic ingredients.
Food was ok. Service was slow.
Overall not as good as it used to be.

We visited here at the behest of our son .
To be honest we were unsure what to expect, and like many similar situations we were more than pleasantly surprised .
The ambience is pleasant, the staff helpful and friendly and most importantly they have a fabulous menu that doesn't just live on paper .
After our first visit we promised to return and have done. We have not been disappointed.
Well worth a visit , even for a meat and 2 veg like me.
