I just love that we have a Tapas restaurant in townLots of people agree so do book. It is a popular place especially on Market Day lunch times Iâve been there for lunch,for an evening meal and for parties The food is delicious and sharing is fun. I especially appreciate ordering a modest number of dishes...then the option of adding is thereThe wines are good and sensibly pricedMaking me hungry thinking about it.....

Loved the decor, on entering the restaurant had a comfortable, busy, lively atmosphere and having read the reviews we were looking forward to good food. Ordered the peri peri chicken starter, pesto garlic bread, and garlic mushroom bruschetta. Pesto garlic bread and bruschetta was delicious, peri peri chicken was bland.Service was fantastic, prompt and attentive I ordered the chicken tagine with preserved lemons and was really looking forward to it. I was so disappointed tasted like dry, tasteless, bland poached chicken that had no preserved lemons. The dish it was served in had large cracks. I couldnât finish it, it was so tasteless & dry. Side salad was delicious.My daughter ordered the spaghetti carbonara it was presented nicely and was delicious. The royal mix was dry watery and bland. Loved the atmosphere, service was great but was disappointed after reading the fabulous reviews to find our meals so bland and tasteless. Large car park at the co-op free after 6.Maybe stick with the pasta and pizza dishes we wanted to try the traditional Marrakesh dishes but Iâm really really sorry to say that we were hugely disappointed.

The service was awful it wasnât busy but staff were more interested in entertaining friends than the service, food was not barbecued by any stretch of the imagination, in fact it was very similar to food Iceland my dish up, the salad was limp and dry tomatoes were tired ,, overall a bad experience Would I recommend? NOWould I visit again? NOIs it vfm ? NO

This is the first time at the Montebello restaurant which boasts a family run fine dining experience.I would dispute this statement and these are my reasons for the low star rating and review.Firstly the staff are running round like headless chickens and do not give an air of professional pride in the service, especially when one of the waitresses is chewing gum whilst serving. I asked for a larger shandy expecting to arrive in a pint glass but in fact what arrived was a rather large bottled beer and a bottle of lemonade which was placed on the table, certainly not what you would expect from a fine dining experience.The starter was quite nice and enjoyable. It's a pity this cannot be said for the Lamb Rump main, which when it arrived came minus the sides. We were informed this would take around 5 minutes. Then why not wait until the sides are ready and serve with the main. I asked if the Lamb was served pink and I was informed it was, when I eventually cut into the Lamb it was well done and the first four mouthful's were full of gristle. It would have helped to have had the correct knife to cut the lamb. I did raise my concerns over the lamb and was offered another main but declined due to the time delay.Our guests did try the desserts and I had an espresso coffee which came in a rather large cup surely a fine dining establishment should have the correct espresso cups.It was at this point the waitress(still chewing on her gum) started cleaning the table when I was still finishing my coffee surely it would be easier to clear the tables once the bill has been paid and the customers leave the table. This is far from a Fine dining experience. The staff require fine dining training it also requires someone who is fully trained running front of house, what I witnessed was nothing short of organised chaos.This was not a fine dining experience and I feel it was over priced for what we received. I would be more than happy for the management to discuss this further. Major Mike Bohanan
