The food was amazing but the service wasn't great. Felt rushed

Well worth the wait for proper tasty fresh food .

Fantastic food & drink from an a.azing menu. Staff very friendly and ensured our evening was great.

Amazing food, fabulous atmosphere and wonderful attentive staff highly recommended

We were really pleased to see how busy the restaurant was but unfortunately our booked table was still in use so we were seated upstairs next to a large, noisy group. Service was slow but the food was good, particularly the prawn pasta. We we I’ll try again but they need to consider how many covers they can cope with.

Food was excellent. Staff friendly and helpful. The restaurant was busy had a great vibe.

Lovely atmosphere and entertainment included with a magician and trumpet player

Amazing restaurant. Went for my boyfriend’s birthday and had such a good time. There was live saxophone, an in house magician and the food was delicious.

Great food and the majic guy was excellent, enjoyed the atmosphere

Very delicious food and Cocktails. Amazing place and friendly staff

Just WOW! From the smiling greeting by the manager, to the attentive waitress's. Having a magician entertain us whilst we had a lovely glass of wine and decided what to order from the menu. The finale was the food, the fish was exquisite and so were the prawn and chicken pasta dishes. My daughter was blown away and this is now her new favourite place. Thank you Merchant of Venice for a spectacular dining experience

Perfect from start to finish, attentive staff, beautiful decor and excellent food. Can't wait to visit again!

The food was cooked fine , my choice was not as good asI thought it would be, try some thing different next time.

There was live music on Friday and Saturday night. Fortunately we were seated at the other end of the restaurant.

No complaints, absolutely love this restaurant cannot wait to go back already.

A lovely dining experience. Will not hesitate to Rebook. Great

Had a very lovely lunch, great atmosphere and tasty food. Dona gave amazing service very attentive and friendly 😁

Not much to say more than...I will be back :-) Loved it (ambiance, location and food) Thanks

Very attentive staff. Excellent food and excellent service. First time for my friends and they would certainly recommend this to others.

We booked a table for four for a university reunion. We arrived exactly on time but the table was not ready. We were shown to an upstairs area to wait for our table. We felt a little ignored as we waited for menus, drinks and some staff seemed confused as to what was happening (one asked if we would like a table downstairs, which is what we had been shown to this table to wait for). We had to ask three times for water and so it went on. Having said that the staff were very apologetic for the confusion and delays and the food was very good, so all in all a good time was had.

Everything was excellent.....the welcome, the atmosphere, the service and particularly the food. Nothing negative to say.

First time at Merchant of Venice, the food was excellent and we all had a great time thank you

Best in every single way - the food, the atmosphere, the service. The staff were the loveliest - so kind, friendly & attentive. Would totally recommend - can’t wait to go back X

Lovely place to eat. Food is always good. Service is great.

limited menu. Probably won't go again. etc etc etc etc

Plenty of staff around but we had to wait for a while before someone took our order, had to remind waiters that we were still waiting on drinks even after starters had arrived. I asked to change a sauce in my pasta dish and was told it was possible, dish still arrived as per menu and waiter mentioned that it was the same and has not been changed per my request. He took it back and whilst I waited for it, the sides got cold and so did my friends dish. Not sure what was going on but it was not a good first time experience. Not sure I would recommend or re visit

Fab pasta the best ….will go again very soon 🤗

Great authentic Italian food and excellent service. A really enjoyable evening.

Lovely lunch and very pleasant and helpful staff with delicious food.

Couldn’t really fault our experience at all and I’m sure we will visit again 🙌

The food was delicious and plentiful. Nice decor and friendly staff. It is only small so the noise level can get quite loud when full.

The waiters and waitresses were lovely and friendly. Also attentive even as it got busier. Disappointed with my cannelloni as bland and filling was very dry. Nice ambience though.

The food was amazing. The restaurant is not the cheapest one but really worth the money spent

Excellent food, good price, nice drinks and nice staff thank you

This restaurant is absolutely amazing, the service is first class, thankyou MANIISHA, the food can not be faulted in any way and the ambience perfect, we will definitely be going again soon.

Lovely food, waitresses very helpful. Enjoyed the music, great atmosphere. Busy vibe.

Lovely meal, lovely setting & most importantly lovely staff, will be back 👍

A little disappointed we was sat upstairs as there was no one else up there, we had pre booked so would have expected priority seating, toilet was very very cold however service was good and food was excellent, Will definitely
