Grill on the Corner review by Anon
Cheers for the voucher but won't be rushing back.
Servive was ***** - but they did say they were understaffed.
Starterts
Thai Fish Cakes - way, way, way too much ginger killed the taste of any fish.
Calamari - cooked well but batter was rank and lemon mayo poor.
Mains
14oz Rib Eye med rare - lovely piece of beef and cooked really well.
Suft and turf - steak again well cooked and 2 huge king prawns lovely.
Chips - in a word awful. Soggy and just a poor effort all round really.
Garlic mushrooms - boring, unseasoned and too much garlic
Sugar snap peas - passable
Bernaise Sauce - Incredibly bad. Tasted like butter sauce. No taste of tarragon, wine vinegar, shallot or anything else. I had one taste of it and left the rest.
Desserts
Pinapple Carpaccio - really nice and refreshing.
Chocolate fudge cake - tasted like a Sara Lee effort, too dry and a bit sickly.
All in all a decidedly average meal and the whole place seems more concerned with appearence than with the food being served. The only thing cooked well was the steak which lets face it is not that hard to do - the rest of the food was unimaginative, boring and poorly presented.
I was very disappointed with this place and would not go back or recommend it especially at the prices they are charging. To be honest with what they must be paying in rent i cannot see this being around for long.
