Great flavours, friendly helpful staff, reasonably priced. I'll be back. I hope they can maintain these standards - that the chef won't leave and the food will become more standard or that they don't start dumbing down the food until it's like anywhere else. My only complaint is that I found the food a touch oily (there's a lot of frying going on) and I thought the service should be much faster but I guess that will come with time. I'd highly recommend it for something casual and a bit different.

The best part was the desserts though. Nice house wine too and the atmosphere was great, really buzzing. Fenns - cheap and cheerful but really tasty. A bit jammed at lunch time but it's understandable given the season. I love the staff here. Market Lane - jam packed and quite uncomfortably noisy. Great food and service. Felt a bit rushed. Electric - twice in two weeks, was great the second time too. The food is so tasty.

Food over 30 minutes late with no apology, lukewarm, food was incredibly bland and overcooked to the point of being inedible and no prawn crackers that were supposed to be a free extra for ordering over €15 of food. Pity, because we've enjoyed food from there in the past. I emailed them about it but didn't receive a reply, and I honestly don't think we'd ever eat there again.

Personally myself and a very fussy Mrs andip really enjoyed it. Arrived after 20 mins with a complimentary portion of chips. I wonder are they quiet on takeaway because of the weekend that's in it and therefore maybe more time for the food prep. Shame they can't sustain this level as enjoyed it but will give them another try and report back

Apart from the missing prawn crackers and the blandness, I'd suspect the food was just left sitting in the delivery drivers car for the extra half hour, that he forgot about it or something. Although actually, my oh got a dish from the specials and it was 90% vegetables. Despite it costing €10.50, there was a minuscule amount of meat in there so there was definitely a problem in the kitchen as well.

We had to be somewhere at 10 so I booked for 7.30 thinking that we'd be in and out in an hour and have time to go for a drink somewhere after. Ended up getting out of the place at 9.20 and we just had a main and coffee. The food came out quite quickly after we ordered but there was such a delay between each stage. 15 mins for someone to clear our plates, another 10 mins before we were asked if we wanted dessert, another 10 mins before the dessert menu was brought down, another 20 for the coffee, etc, etc. Ended up having to go up to the counter to pay instead of facing another long wait for the bill. I would try it again because I really enjoyed the food but the service would have to be a lot better.
