Tasca Dali catered for a work event on our premises. The food was amazing - so fresh, full of flavour and loads of variety. The quality of the food was superb and the care and attention we received from Alex and his team could not be faulted. They were courteous, polite, friendly and knowledgeable - and they left our premises spotlessly clean! I haven't visited their restaurant yet but I will certainly will do so now. Would highly recommend their catering services. First class.

Simply ignore the negatives (though there are not many - speaks volumes). There are some people who can never, ever be pleased and actually enjoy rubbishing places because crap reviews get more "helpful" votes - that's a fact - sad but true. And,Tripadvisor prefer nasty reviews and don't even care if they are true or not because they get read more (by gloating nasty people). This place is totally unique because there is no menu (fussy, picky eaters don't bother), the wonderful host feeds you. And he does so with passion, and knowledge, and a bit of humour. He feeds you on excellent produce, cheffed beautifully, in an extremely relaxed atmosphere and it truly makes for a memorable and very enjoyable evening. It is NOT expensive. For 5 courses each plus amazing bread and a bottle of wine we paid £95, which I think is extremely acceptable for an evening of quality food that isn't out of a bag and pinged with a microwave. It is not "pile it high, shovel it in" pub grub so don't expect to pay the type of prices that wouldn't even pay the electricity bill in most places other than if it is constantly churning out crap food out at vast speed like... Wethers! I just wished it were closer to home!

myself, my husband and 4 friends booked a table at Gusto to celebrate the 50th birthday of one of the group. We'd eaten there before and always had a lovely meal with great service. Sadly on this evening, this wasn't going to be the case...When we arrived we got a warm welcome and the drinks we ordered arrived quickly. we were asked a few times if we wanted to order but weren't ready. when we were ready we had to ask twice if we could orderthe starters arrived after only a short while and we all agreed they were very tasty. so all good there. But it all started to do downhill with the mains...Food arrived and mine and another person's steaks were only a little warm. not good. when paying around £25 for your main you want it at least to be hot!We called the waiter over and explained, the food was quickly taken away and we got an apology. we then waited....and waited... and waited. the rest of our group were eating as slowly as possible but they did eventually finish. During this time we complained to a waiter how long it was taking for the 2 dishes to be redone. ( we thought they'd perhaps be prioritised to a degree considering the rest of the table had their food)we then spoke to a gentleman who must have been the manager. He apologised and offered us a discount on the food which we accepted but the main focus was getting our food. He came back and said it was just coming out. we then waited another 10 mins for it to arrive!my friend's steak was perfect she said but mine was very rare. I ordered medium rare. as I didn't want to wait any longer for my meal I ate it. but didn't enjoy it as I don't like my steak too rare. After the meal, our plates weren't taken and we also weren't offered dessert. Luckily we had some cupcakes with we bought for our friend for her birthday so we had one of those each for pudding!we asked for the bill 3 times and when it came they had kindly only charged us for drinks, no food. which was a bigger discount than we expected. However, it didn't deflect from the fact our evening hadn't been good. Observing what was going on that night, we could see the waiting staff dashing around, working very very hard. We could see dishes being put out by the kitchen and not being taken. so we concluded, simple case of too many customers and not enough staff to deliver the high service and quality level you'd expect. we all agreed we'd go to Gusto again but sorry Gusto, we WON'T be back on a Saturday night again!!Hi, thanks for the review. We've read this quite thoroughly, and we're always grateful for feedback. We know where we went wrong, and we'll use this to improve.We know you'll be back again, and as such we'll see you again soon.Many ThanksGusto Leamington Spa

Wonderfully accomodated 22 of us celebrating 4 grads and families. It was fab. Preordered mixed tapas platters kept arriving and surpised if we left anything...plenty of variety, hot and cold, with constant supply of fresh baked breads...£18 a head was great value as were great choices if cocktails and wines. The girls are fabulous, friendly and efficient coping with us!! Would love to pop back just for a "quieter" experience. Highly recommend.

Only found out about this restaurant by accident, so decided to try it. I've been to the sister restaurant, Tasca Dali, so, despite some negative reviews, I thought I'd try it as it is run by the same management so it must have the same standard. Tasca Dali has just won the title of best Spanish restaurant in West Midlands, so it must be doing something right!The management and staff were so friendly, polite and informative that I do not understand the very low ratings. Yes there were a couple of hiccups, (one wrong drink due to a new waitress, and the starters taking a little longer than normal), but the quality of the food, (with apologies and no excuses for the mishaps), made up for any slight hiccups.Nothing was too much trouble. Even paella, (which they say on their website needs 24 hours notice), was available which we took advantage of.We had starters off the tapas menu, (bread with alioli, black pudding and calamari), with the oriental calamari the stand out dish. It sounds like an odd combination, but whoever thought of it is inspired as it takes calamari to a completely new level, and not so much oriental but a slight spicy kick. The chicken paella was so moist and tender, with just enough crunch without being burnt. The best outside of Spain. I'll definitely try the seafood paella next time.In summary, I do not know what the negative review expect, but I absolutely had a great evening with staff that could not be more polite and attentive.

We haven't visited this restaurant since it moved to its new premises. We booked in for lunch on a Thursday, when we arrived we were surprised to find that the restaurant wasn't very busy as they had called us earlier in the morning to confirm the booking. I guess that is understandable on a Friday or Saturday night but seemed superfluous on this occasion.The interior has been expensively decorated which you may find charming or regard as over the top. We both chose pappardelle with smoked duck. The quantity was large, the quality disappointed. The service was efficient but the prices, in our opinion, are too high. There is no lunchtime offer which is common in other restaurants in the centre of the town.

Food excellent all very fresh, cooked and presented superbly. The service was excellent, with very friendly with an appropriate awareness to privacy. I look forward to going again very soon.The only slight observation is that the tables for two could do with being slightly larger in order to hold more of the delicious food and drinks.

Went here with a large group of friends. We've been here before and the food is good enough but the place is looking very tired now. It hasn't changed much in the last 20 years. There was hardly anybody other than us there so no atmosphere. There used to be a party vibe about the place but that's disappeared. As soon as it started to snow outside, the staff made is pretty clear that they wanted us to leave asapWe won't be going back until it's been updated
