The M Bar - (Near , london)

Steve Birbeck Six Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Its another one of those places where I need an extra star! We were visiting Hastings for the day and wanted a nice lunch, and we certainly found one at Petit Fi. Extremely welcoming from the moment you step through the door, you immediately get a good feeling about the place. Nice chilled atmosphere, very friendly staff and lovely looking cakes (more about them in a minute). We ordered the Seafood Chowder and one of the daily specials, Stilton, Cranberry and Walnut Filo tart, with a glass of wine each. The chowder was so good I could have licked the bowl clean. Nice amount of bread with it, decent bread too. The tart was also excellent, a good size portion served with salad and potatoes. We couldnt resist some cake after, so we had a piece of ginger cake and a piece of carrot and walnut. All cakes are home-made and the ones we had were so good we had to get a piece of Guinness and Chocolate to take home. Would highly recommend a visit if you are in Hastings, I doubt you will be disappointed. Thank you Petit Fi.

Mrs Mcellan Headed in for a quick late lunch and really loved the food. However I feel compelled to write this review as the service wasn’t great at all. It seemed they did not care much about my visit or explaining the menu to me, even after I mentioned I had never visited before and was confused about the ordering/payment process. No recommendations, no words exchanged when serving/leaving, not even a ‘Enjoy’ or ‘Thank you’. I can’t quite put my finger on it but it seemed like a really hostile and cold environment. I hoovered up my food in 10 minutes and left, asking my leftovers to simply be wrapped up. I suppose + points for fast food so I could leave quicker :( I have had friendlier service getting McDonald’s Drive Thru so I really expected more for a ‘Restaurant’ experience.

Spiney Spiney EXCEPTIONAL. A very warm welcome. The food was excellent to the extent where the chefs provided me with a dish not listed on the menu. Very reasonably priced and atmospheric music. Thank you to a super restaurant. Superb.

Beth Starling Such a great find for dinner on their first weekend. The atmosphere had a buzzy, friendly energy, the service was spot on, and the food was delicious. The Padron peppers and sea bass were especially amazing, definitely two of my favourites! I really can’t fault either the food or the service. Such a great addition to the area, and I’ll definitely be back!

Amit Khetia We tried this new, family-run food shop after meeting a friendly guy handing out leaflets and we are so glad we did! We were hungry and excited to give it a go. My son had the fries, my wife ordered the pani puri, and as a big fan of North Indian cuisine I went straight for the dal makhni with naan. Everything was amazing. Delicious flavours, great portions, and so many different varieties all under one roof. Keep it up, you have just earned yourselves a new regular customer!

Andres Naranjo Having recently dined at Rama Thirteen, which has reopened with new management, I can confidently say we had an amazing experience! The service was outstanding; the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish not only tasting fantastic but also looking spectacular. My choices for the night included the Thai prawn crackers, salmon in teriyaki sauce, and the sticky pudding with the most delicious ice cream Ive ever tasted. To top it off, I enjoyed a gin and tonic that complemented the meal perfectly. I couldnt recommend this place more. Its officially my new favorite spot in the area!
