Authentic style in Southampton

“Fantastic place serving authentic Mexican food! The owner is full of energy and gave us such a warm welcome. You could really tell he was passionate about the dishes and excited to share his knowledge. He gave us lots of recommendations, all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely one of my new favourite places in Southampton — I’ll absolutely be coming back. Thank you for the amazing experience!”

“Got some Karaage Chicken and a Volcanic Cheesy Chicken breast. Cooked fresh in front of you, with a range of seasonings to choose from. Very tasty, the garage chicken was tender with a beautiful crispy coating, and the cheesy chicken was incredible too. Waited about 10 minutes to get my order, looking at the very nice fish tank. Great place to get some decent fried chicken.”

“We have used Gary numerous times for ear piercing for kids (aged 10 and 12) and adults. He is friendly and provides good aftercare instructions. We'll be back!”

“We had a superb visit to Taco Taco. The owners/ chefs are friendly and clearly passionate about their dishes. The food was amazing and the best presentation of Mexican food I've ever seen (and I've tried a lot). The sweet potato Taco was my favourite and the pineapple margarita went down very well. Will definitely be returning again. We did book a table in advance via direct message.”

“This place has a really nice, romantic, and calming vibe. The food is delicious and the portions are huge. The waiters are really friendly too. I'd definitely recommend it. It's one of my favorite restaurants.”

“The workers are so nice and the food was incredible! It’s surprisingly quiet and not very busy, which I personally like. Definitely my new favourite place to eat!”

“Best loaded chips we have ever had and a really nice flavourful Indian pizza!”

“As a Polish person, I have to say – this is really delicious, authentic food. Big respect”

“I recently visited Gurkha’s Inn for a birthday meal, and had a throughly enjoyable experience. The food and the service were both excellent, and everything I ate was sensational. If you’re looking for some great curries and Nepalese food in Winchester, Gurkha’s Inn is a ‘must visit’.”

“One of the best Chinese takeaways I've had. Absolutely delicious. The extra tasty special fried rice is particularly good. Can't wait to visit again.”

“Came for a friend’s birthday and did bottomless brunch. Food was wonderful, drinks were amazing and service was even better. Beth made sure the drinks were flowing, absolutely fantastic service, thank you! We had a great day!”

“A lovely little independent Chinese restaurant run by a husband and wife team. The food is cooked fresh and is carefully flavoured, not packed with salt and sugar like so many regular takeaways. We'll definitely be back here and will be recommending to all our friends!”

“Thank you Jordan!! Amazing experience (service and food) at ASK Bournemouth! ..... My friend and I were unable to see the movie we wanted at the BH2 Odeon cinema, so we went to Ask Italian at the BH2 centre for food instead. Despite being very busy they were able to fit us in and for that we are so grateful to the man who got us a table. Sadly, we didn't get his name, but he was so accommodating and friendly. The manager of the restaurant was also so helpful and made us feel so welcome, but it was our server Jordan who really stole the show! I own a private medical clinic so I am always very aware of the service I receive and all I can say is that we were blown away by Jordan’s helpfulness and manner, he was so attentive and despite us not intending to have a dessert because we were full, Jordan’s upselling skills were brilliant as he introduced us to the smaller dessert with a coffee option which was perfect. On a very busy evening the whole team were efficient and welcoming and service was fast and the food was absolutely delicious (thank you Chef too!). A great evening was had and, to the whole team (and especially Jordan!) we are so very grateful! We will be back! Thank you so much!”

“Great food with amazing service. Every single staff member had a smile on their face. They were all very kind and helpful even recommending some items to try on the menu. All the food was perfect. The batter was lovely and crispy. The chips were hot and fresh. The curry sauce was lovely. And the fish cakes and pies were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. Prices were cheap and the food was more than worth the value. Again the staff were super.”

“Really enjoyed dining here! The staff made us feel welcome, and the food was top quality. Perfect place for a family dinner or a casual night out.”

“Wow! Iv ordered From here before but ordered the Bassit special meal this evening and whole family is very impressed . There is sooo much food! 2 medium pizzas, fluffy soft dough and they don’t skimp on the topping and tasted great. 2 medium kebabs great size and salad was fresh and you get loads, we haven’t even touched the box of chicken and chicken wing s yet or the garlic bread . Came with a bottle of Full fat coke which makes a nice change from the diet crap most takeeay places give you for free. It looks like we have a a new favourite takeaway . Thank you!”

“An authentic Thai restaurant run by Thai couples. Though the place is small but the food is excellent. Can’t imagine I was in Southampton. It’s just the same taste, the same food with the same sauce you have in Bangkok. This is the best Thai food I have here and the best price as well. A lot better than other fancy decorated Thai restaurants that your money goes to the fancy furniture & decoration while the food is rubbish. Thai Thai Express you should deserve more customers. Keep going!”

“We had an amazing time here this afternoon! Our server Sawitee was very welcoming and even shared some recipe tips to try and replicate at home!! We had the Chicken Tamarind and the Legendary KSG with some lovely crispy noodles and the best soup which was to die for! Plenty of good food and drink options were available, we’ll definitely be returning!!”

“Went in for a meal with my wife and had our friend join us later in the evening. The food was amazing but our server was even better. Freddie took amazing care of us! The busyness of the restaurant meant that somethings were slightly delayed, absolutely no one’s fault and we were not in any rush. Freddie kept us updated and apologised a couple times for the wait (again, it wasn’t anyone’s fault, not his, nor the restaurants. It’s always nice seeing a business thrive). He was professional, friendly and accommodating. During the evening we had a group of loud women come in. We asked if we could move as it was quite overwhelming, he moved us over into a corner where it was a little more sheltered from the noise. He later came back and checked in to see if we were happy with our new table. This kind of detail was not unnoticed by us and we truly appreciated everything. Thank you for a lovely night. We will absolutely be back!”

“Best pizza at very affordable price”

“Melo has become my favourite restaurant recently . They have amazing food . Great customer service and atmosphere . I highly recommend it to everyone . The food gets served in good time. Good portion sizes and freshly baked and served bread . They have delicious freshly squeezed carrot juice which I really recommend you try it . Their baklava is soo good !”

“Lots of wonderful dressy dresses at an average of £45. One assistant was an absolute star! Extremely helpful, put a dress aside for us and hovered helpfully. When we returned the other assistant was pretty grumpy which marred an otherwise excellent experience. I love that they leave a pair of dress shoes in the changing room to borrow to help get a feel for the look!”

“Food that I ordered every time from here is amazing! The kebab! Arrrrrgh! So good! Seriously this is the best kebab I have ever had. It's not oily, the salad was fresh and the meat was cooked to perfection. Would 100% recommend. The lunch time kebab meat and chips is the best meal i ever had. Their pizzas are also better than all of the big brands with loads more topping and at a low price. Try this place and I gaurantee you will go back. Good food, Good price, Good service, see you again.”

“Only been here twice, never disappointed. Got the chicken wrap + fries for £4. Amazing deal, nice staff and quiet environment. Not much to improve on”

“The food was delicious and arrived super quickly. The delivery driver was extremely polite and so pleasant to talk to. Definitely one of the best places for delivery in Winchester and one of the most courteous and friendly drivers. Would recommend to anyone”

“Incredible cooking, the flavour grouping/ merging is incredible, friendly staff, cool resurant atmosphere. I'm an experienced Chinese food eater and i,m a big fan.. Tip: you can order from takeaway menu in restaurant :) great job :)”

“First time ordering from this place on just eat..seeing alot of bad reviews but I have to give my review honestly. I'm going to write a long review as feel they deserve it. We thought we'd try this place as reviews on just eat aren't bad but if id read these first we probably wouldn't have BUT..I'm glad we did! Firstly, very good prices if your after a cheap Chinese. We got a portion of noodles and pork balls with sweet n sour sauce for two of us and came to £10.20 odd with delivery which in these days is shockingly cheap..we didn't have high hopes.. Anyway, it came in the time estimated (55 mins)in good packaging and still hot. Portions were huge and we enjoyed it all very much..half a portion each was more than enough and for an average size man and a petite lady we both can eat a fair bit! And we had balls left over. Never had pork balls before but they were lovely and huge with a good ammount of meat in them. Alot of people slating them but give them a try..we had no problems at all and will definitely be returning. Much love”
