We dine in chains before theatre visits of which there are two in T.Wells. Prezzo, and Cote are always heaving so we thought we would try ASK. Warm welcome, friendly and attentive staff thatâs where it ends. No uniform as such quite a scruffy look. The house white was warm, I had to ask for some ice to chill it down a a bit. My husband was pleased he hadnât gone for a better wine. My light meal was just that a tiny pizza with raw. veg salad.The pizza had the barest of the many ingredients mentioned in the menu although the base was ok. My husbands ravioli, was odd. Supposedly charcoal pasta on one half ordinary on the other stuffed with a beef in Chianti Ragu. Sounded appealing, but tough pasta with a meat paste inside. And a small amount of sauce. Plenty of it. It my husband left most of it. Condiments had to be requested, for some reason theyâre kept on a shelf by the till. The olive oil which I usually like was very bitter. We didnât stay for dessert or coffee. Itâs yet another place where the menu is written in an office somewhere and no one thinks to teach the chef how to cook it. Considering how many of these chains are closing I have no idea why this one is still open. If two chains within a hundred yards are packed, a major review is needed.
8. Carluccio's - Tunbridge Wells

I took my nephew for a quick lunchtime bowl of pasta at Carluccioâs. The pasta was delicious as always (the langoustine and mussel fettucce is sublime!).Sadly (even though we were only there for less than half an hour) the lunch was ruined by a particularly unpleasant female waitress.Firstly we had ordered some focaccia. When it arrived we noticed there was no olive oil on our table (all tables have a bottle). I asked politely if we could have a bottle. Without saying a work the waitress turned round and grabbed a bottle from the table behind us and banged it down in front of me.Secondly on departure I tried to attract her attention to ask for the bill (giving the universal hand gesture for bill asking). The waitress was standing talking to two other waiters, looked straight at me, gave me a filthy look and continued to her conversation with the other staff!! Having worked in many establishments in both Brighton and London I can honestly say that it only takes one member of staff like this to bring down the atmosphere of and entire restaurant. I should also mention the the restaurant was about a quarter full, so not exactly rushed off their feet.Hi Brightonchef666, We appreciate your honest review. We set a high standard for ourselves, so we are disappointed to hear that your experience with us was not a positive one. We will use your comments to refine our efforts to ensure this issue does not happen again.Kind regards Justyna Baranska-PringGeneral Manager

I invited my mum for a lunch to celebrate her birthday. Her and I enjoyed everything, starting from homemade arancini to Capriciosa pizza, which in our opinion- the best choice we could have made! Would recommend aperol spritzer as well!Lovely staff, very efficient and smiley. âºï¸Thank you!

Making our way up from the Pantiles to the top of the town, we decided to grab a quick coffee here.Well, we didn't! My wife (once married to an Italian) saw the quality of the lasagne and insisted that we had lunch straight away!Delicious. Really good.We washed the food down with two very acceptable glasses of house red ----that's two glasses each mind you!Service was spot on. Friendly and helpful.The manager/owner even translated an email from Venice for me to read.Will we return? Yes!

We popped in mid shopping for a bit of a re fuel and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the coffee and the lovely Citrus cake on offer and very authentic Italian Tapas Board .All reasonably priced.We shall return as refreshing to experience a nice independent cafe rather than a chain.Turn left out the back of Next and you are there in a few paces worth the small detour away from the food court in the shopping centre

Another example of falling for vastly overrating reviews, also on tripadvisor.Because of these reviews we had great expectations when dropping impromptu into this tiny place with tiny tables and bad air. This place is run by a husband and wife team. The husband, a heavy smoker, prepares formulaic pasta dishes, most of the swimming in a cherry tomato and garlic sauce. Our Spaghetti Carbonara were drowned in too much oil. The fish of the day clearly came from the freezer of was as tough as cardboard. What a waste of an evening! Learning from experience helps others. The bill was way to high for what we got. Be forewarned!

Tunbridge Wells has a number of restaurants, but we have often found it difficult to consistently get decent food at a reasonable price. Each time we've been to Don G, we've left with a feeling of satisfaction.The last time we visited, it was quiet, (thus echoing some of the other reviews here), but service, food and wine were all good. There were 4 of us, and all enjoyed our choices, which were selected across the menu range.

Kids ordered baby pizzas but got full sized which was a bonus! Proper pizza with thick, hand-pulled dough. It is very popular looking around the inn but there are plenty of other options if that's not your thing. The chicken and mushroom pie i had was delicious. The white wine sauce was a little runny and the chicken was the tiniest bit dry but otherwise full marks.

Il Vesuvius is one of my favourite places to eat. You are treated like a long lost friend when you arrive, the service is attentive and friendly and the food!! Try the Pollo alla crema di funghi - absolutely wonderful! The food is always exceptionally good and very reasonably priced. No better way to spend an evening with friends or family!
