Merchant of Venice - Granby Street

5 friends for dinner, awful service ( they need training) food mediocre. Asked if we wanted starters before main meal, then main meals just plonked down on table and we had to ask which meal was which! I think it was cheap produce, I’ve cooked better at home.

We dined here on 11th Jan and from start to finish it was brilliant. The service from Vin was second to none and the food was first class. The place was clean and ambient. Faultless experience.

Absolutely lovely food in a lovely setting. Good value too

Lovely atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, amazing decor, and friendly staff. Didn’t manage a cocktail!! Next time 😁

Staff were all very pleasant & willing to go the extra mile Food & drink were of a high quality

Had a lovely meal on Saturday evening , will definitely visit again when in the area .

Very enjoyable experience, we waited quite a long time for our food, but we were only having mains, and it was worth waiting for. It did mean that we didn't have time for dessert, but the serving staff were lovely, and we would DEFINITELY return

Good food. Nice atmosphere . Ideal place to busy before the theatre

The ambience was very good and it’s a characterful place. The live music was good but sometimes too loud in a small place. Food was okay.

Food was amazing, so was the service. Beautiful place too.

Excellent atmosphere, service, food by lovely staff. Would certainly recommend

Warm welcoming atmosphere for pre show supper, delicious fresh food at a fair price

A birthday meal. Everything was as I expected. Polite and pleasant staff.

Nice atmosphere, good food and very friendly. I would definetly go again.

Great night and good food before we went to the theatre. Thoroughly recommend

Wonderful friendly staff who couldn't do enough for us. Excellent food and service, couldn't fault it 🙂

Everything about it was bad, after 45 mins we still hadn't arrived then they tried to bring everything together , food came out on chipped plates , had to wait for sides not a good experience

Warm, inviting and great service. Food was very nice and fresh. Went for my partners birthday and she loved it.

Excellent food & service, a lovely setting and atmosphere too, will definitely go again

We enjoyed the meal, nice customer service,beautiful environment with a touch of live music. 10/10

Mahi was very attentive, friendly, knowledgeable right from the beginning until end. Her customer service manners were impeccable with a lovely warm smile. We were quite taken back that took our order without making notes and did not make a single error. She is an asset to the restaurant. Because of her service my friends and I will return again.

Excellent food - lovely to taste real Italian food in Leicester.

Waiting staff very friendly and informative. A very enjoyable experience.

A beautiful setting great service and wonderful food and the swing seats were a nice experience

The staff were nice and the food was very good (and reasonably priced).

Went with my grandparents who also loved it. Their coffees and brunch menus were delicious.

Great service and delicious Italian food in a lovely setting.

Food very good but service not so good. Had to prompt staff to take orders for dessert and then again to request coffee.

Good food. Nice ambience. Quick service. Ideal for what we wanted

The quality of the cooking here is very high. The dishes are clearly made with care, on the premises. All the dishes we tried were delicious. The service was efficient and helpful, and all the staff we met were very friendly. Highly recommended.

Dined here a few times now. Always good food, well priced and nice atmosphere. Service is good too.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, efficient and attentive staff. Food was wonderful, took a little time as it was busy, but was all freshly cooked so worth waiting for.

Good food, nice atmosphere, great vegan brunch option I loved that. Nice coffee, pleasant staff. All good would go back

Great food, friendly staff and a nice relaxing atmosphere, good prices too.

We were a group of 13 and pre-ordered the savoury food. We were looked after beautifully and the food was hot and generous and very flavourful. The live music was an added bonus and really added to the atmosphere. The environment is so delightful with all the twinkly lights - such a fun and memorable evening thank you 😀

Lovely decor, flavoursome food and friendly staff. Wish portion sizes were bigger but tasty nonetheless. Would definitely visit again.

Lovely restaurant, staff all so kind and attentive, great menu choices
