King's Restaurant

This is a fantastic place. The dining rooms were done up beautifully, to a high standard. The members of staff were very professional and attentive, and the food was lovely. They served fresh bread rolls just after we ordered, then I had a bacon and chicken salad as a starter. My main was lovely, pork belly looked good too. My father had the salmon, which looked fantastic. For dessert I went for an orange cheesecake. The presentation was very nice, strawberries and a small cute jug of cream. It was a delightful cheesecake, just perfect in everyway. I highly recommend the place and have no idea what the other reviewer was saying. If it has declined in any way, then I wish I could have come before as it was delightful enough for me and my family.

It was sad to see the decline in what was a quality restaurant with efficient service. It was almost deserted at my last visit compared to being always busy previously, and when the food arrived it was apparent why. We went for Sunday lunch, and were greatly disappointed; coriander with grated carrot! Coriander is the last thing that goes with roast beef, especially when so much was used, and the smell was quite overpowering. It was all wrapped up in a steamed cabbage leaf, which had all the vegetables apart from potato. The gravy also was so thick; it was like dark treacle with a thick skin on it when it arrived. The service also was quite slapdash.
