Good food and very nice place to eat. Enjoy guys
Very nice evening. Enjoyed my food but my espresso was not the best. The waitress was very pleasant. I have been going to Dantes for many years and will be going again in the future
Having lunch at the Halfway House was a very nice experience. Greated and served by pleasant staff and to enjoy very nice and tasty food made for a great afternoon spent with family. Thankyou.
Very slow service; appeared far too busy for the numbers of staff present. The restaurant is open plan and was very noisy rendering conversation difficult. Food presentation was good but the lamb was so undercooked it was largely inedible and the majority of it left on the plate. The pudding was plentiful and good quality. Overall, the main course was so poor it would probably be adviseable to keep to simple pasta based dishes. Overall costs for two- £75 Inc wine.
Average. Food was ok but service was not the best. There wasn’t a member of staff dedicated to looking after us. We waiting a long amount of time for both starter and main then again waiting for our dish to be cleared. It was poorly organised.
No children's menu says offered even though we had 3 children in our party. Not all main meals served together . Both pizzas served after some of our party had finished eating.
Lovely food, good size portions for both the starter & main- Also nice to have the option to have a drink before/after in the bar.
It was a pretty reasonable visit to the restaurant but unfortunately the £16/17 chicken kebab i ordered was very dry which was a bit disappointing.
Nice food and atmosphere, drinks came very quickly, food took a while but presume made fresh and was busyish. Staff nice and not intrusive. Always good pasta dishes and good value.
Lovely food, attentive waitress and nice wine. Hugely recommended by both of us. Our second visit did not disappoint and will return again later in the year.
Went for a family meal, we all really enjoyed ourselves. Catered for a dairy allergy with no issues. Portions are a little large, so think carefully if you’re having multiple courses.
Great food good atmosphere but very busy so slight delay in being seated but overall we enjoyed it. Will definitely return again as food is great.
We had lovely food at Dantes restuarant expessially the roast beef the staff were very friendly too and very good service i definitely will be going back.
Excellent food and good atmosphere £60 for 3 courses for 2 people and a drink each is very reasonable and set in a handy location
Quality food. Quality service. No issues recommending to anyone. Surf and turf amazing and the chicken is massive. Very good at sauces as well. Nice and creamy. :)
Always great food and lovely ambience. Highly recommend the regent draft lager and the beer garden is a great place to spend the evening post-meal.
Great food. Service was s little slow and waiter kept forgetting to bring things. Children's drinks, then adult drinks then coffees. It wasn't very busy so not sure why. But overall was good and we would return. Thankyou
Out of the 4 of us, only 1 enjoyed their starter and 2 enjoyed their main courses. It took a long time to get the attention of staff and then drinks took a long time to arrive, although the staff themselves were nice and helpful. Nice location and good atmosphere but food and wait for drinks service was a let down.
Food was great as always. Nice dishes, cooked well. Service was a little slow, but it was Saturday night. We will be back again soon.
Brilliant food great service would highly recommend we had a table of eight plus space for a pram . Food came out very quickly all staff from the bar to table service was professional
Top notch from start to finish, gorgeous food great service. The kebabs were really really good and the garlic bread was spot on, will definitely be back !!
Food was lovely, plenty of staff who were all very efficient. prices very reasonable Restaurant and outside areas clean and tidy. Booking process simple Would recommend to try
Restaurant was busy, but service was quick and cheerful. Staff seemed happy despite the pressure. The food was superb - excellent quality, generous helpings and beautifully presented. we will definitely be going back.
Great food and great service. Can't wait to go back. The garlic bread is to die for, steaks perfect and gluten free options readily available :-)
It was very busy and disappointed that the starter was served with the main course. It had obviously been forgotten so they brought it all out together. Food was nice.
Great food the duck starter was amazing and the garlic breads are a most. Great service as usual. Definitely going back. 10 out of 10
Food generally good starter could have been a bit hotter. Disappointing to see children running around the restaurant. 2nd time we've been and children running around, and not little children either. From a health and safety point could have easily knocked a waiter with food or drinks over.
Lovely meal and excellent service from pleasant staff. Just found the noise level excessive. Tables are very close together and we found it difficult to totally relax.
Great food however ended up being quite expensive as we originally ordered from the set menu but we're given the standard desert menu so cost a lot more than was expected in the end.
We loved our trip to Dantes. Very chilled restaurant with lovely food which was reasonably priced. All staff were welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be making a trip to Dantes again.
Group of 4 pre booked and shown straight to table (5 out of 5) Drinks prices very pricey (3 out of 5) 4 mains ordered, 3 pizzas and a pasta dish. All came quick and my pasta dish was very nice but I thought it should be a bigger potion for the price or should come with a side salad . Pizza of my wife's (I tried a slice) was good except the base of the pizza was slightly burned and gave a slight bitter burned taste that I do not like. (4 out of 5)
Lovely food, generous portions and good prices, however the service was poor. 20 minutes before we were offered drinks. The restaurant wasn't busy but appeared understaffed.
Waiters and waitresses RUDE!!! Felt like asking for a jug of water was a problem!! Bar men are lovely. Such a shame as we were looking forward to a nice evening
The restaurant provides excellent quality food as always. For my birthday a free bottle of wine was provided as I'm a member of the VIP club. Always worth a visit.
Lovely food. Fast efficient service. I like the use of a standard menu and of an early bird menu. The food choice was great. Definately recommend a visit.
A lovely lunch in relaxing surroundings, polite and helpful waitress, and excellent food. We ate from the set menu which was very reasonable. We really enjoyed our lunch here! Highly recommend.
This is a lovely restaurant with beautiful food and attentive staff. We dined on the 3 course £12.95 menu and found the courses plentiful. When next in the area I'm sure we will return.
Really enjoyed the meal but we have to check the bill almost every time we go. This time the salad didn't arrive but was still on our bill.
I would recommend Dantes at the Halfway House. The food is really good. The service is excellent. The price is very reasonable - three courses for £13.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Dantes, the food was lovely and very well cooked and the atmosphere was very relaxed but the service was very quick and the staff friendly
