Schnitzel Forever - (Near , South East)

Ambre Finley-Day We had our wedding reception at The Minnis on Nov 1st. From the very start when we began to plan, to the actual day, everything was just amazing. When we first went to view the function room (stunning views!!!) we met with Jess. Let me start by saying - she is incredible. She showed us around, explained how the day would run, how the tables would be laid out, when the food would come out etc. This was only a couple months before the actual day (we didn’t leave ourselves a lot of time, so the fact Jess made all of this possible in such a short space of time is even more impressive!). On the run up to the day I was in touch with Jess quite a lot (perhaps too much) to ask questions, send info, decide on food, etc and no task was too big for her. I could tell that Jess was looking forward to the day as much as we were and as a result of her care and excitement, it was just perfect. We dont live locally, about 2/3 hours drive away, so to have somebody so in control and knowledgeable was such a huge comfort. She made absolutely everything we requested possible. She is seriously a pro events manager and she is an absolute asset to the team here. We are so grateful to her!!! The food was delicious- we still get compliments and all the guests were so impressed! I met with the chef Charlotte a couple days before the wedding to go through timings, tables, who’s having what and again, it was all smooth sailing on the day. We are going to keep coming back whenever we come down to the coast because it really was amazing food. On the actual day, we had Alec and Alana on the bar, as well as Jess to ensure everything was going to plan, and, surprise surprise, it went perfectly. Alec and Alana were so friendly, personable, and helpful. After the meal, we had to fold down some tables to make space for the dance floor and this was so smoothly and seamlessly done people didn’t even realise it was going on. A task I thought would be a bit of a pain, no issues at all. Most importantly every member of staff involved was so much fun!!!! It felt like they were extra guests. They both helped with tasks like cutting my cake up and boxing it up, tidying, everything. Value for money was incredible too. A direct sea view venue is something I never thought we could make happen but we were so happy to find The Minnis. I could continue to find compliments but I realise this review is already very long. Overall, best day ever made possible by Jess and the team. Without Jess none of this would’ve been possible, thank you so much Jess and the team!!!

Alex M Our experience at Alex Dilling was simply excellent on all fronts. The service was truly exceptional. I had made a mistake with my booking in which I had not mentioned my seafood allergy. Thankfully the front of house team were understanding and attentive. The chefs went above and beyond to create a bespoke selection of delightful dishes to cater for my needs. An extra special thank you to the general manager Paolo, whose warmth and attentiveness made our evening truly unforgettable. Highly grateful to him and the team for their discretion and for creating a wonderful dining experience. An evening well spent!

Abhinav Tripathi Worth a try for indian food lovers. The pricing is on the reasonable side. The sitting area is small. Also do not expect too much from dine in experience. The food more than makes up for the lack of other shortcomings. In all its one the most reasonable india restaurants in the area. The non-vegetarians would surely love it.

Shurui Wang I had a really lovely dinner here. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The fried rice was also flavourful and well-balanced, not too oily. The atmosphere was cosy and intimate, with soft candlelight that made the place feel warm and relaxing. Service was friendly and attentive, and everything arrived promptly. I would definitely come back!

Samrat Mitra Ethereal tastes comes to mind on the birthday lunch we just had at Indiawaale in Pinner. I have reviewed many Indian restaurants and have been happy with them but this one floored me with their house special Lamb curry on the bone, their starters like avocado kale chat, fish koliwada(Mumbai specialty) and dahi puri, dal makhni and jackfruit biryani! And the service was amazing very helpful polite and efficient! Top tip: if parking on the service road is a problem there is a multistoried car park very closeby. Visiting once will not be enough ! I will be back!

Nimisha Patel We celebrated our nephews 1st birthday last Sunday and they were really accommodating with our choice of menu and made sure everything ran smoothly. The waitress made sure all our guests had their drinks and cleared up as soon as we were finished. The whole place was hired so it felt like an intimate family gathering. Service was spot on, good was super yummy especially the tandoori mushrooms and management were very friendly. 100% recommend!!
