The tasting menu was good, varied and adventurous. The waitress was a really nice and knowledgable about the food. However, service from the Maitre D/ Sommelier was sadly lacking. Once we rejected his suggestion to upsell to the most expensive champagne, he chose to ignore us and spent the evening avoiding our table. Likewise, when asking the other wine host about the flavours and character of a particular wine, their only response was to try and replace that with one “chosen by the royals for their wedding” and not offering any information about the wine we had chosen. We were forced to serve our own wine as not at all attentive to empty glasses. This sadly significantly diminished the experience for us and made us feel unwelcome. A shame, given that this purports to be a Michelin service - we felt the stance arrogant and not reflective of my experience of Michelin restaurants.

Very disappointing. Poor service. Two waitresses who were really slow. The roast for the Sunday lunch was tasteless. Roast potatoes that had seen better days as had the Yorkshire pudding. Does not deserve any accolade. We were really looking forward to this and it sadly let us downEven the wine said 2016 on the menu but when it came was a 2017.

After being quite excited, by articles we had read we decided to go for Sunday Lunch. The welcome and service were very offhand and my partner got the wrong main course. Her Bream turned out to be quite acceptable, but my beef roast turned out to be average and absolutely dominated by a huge Yorkshire pudding, more likely to be seen in a roadside café rather than a fine restaurant. The beef was ok but the rest was less than ordinary. The desserts; Brulee and a sticky toffee pudding could have easily come out of a supermarkets instant dessert counter. Not a great experience and definitely not to be repeated.

Amazing Sunday lunch. Excellent food, drink, service, ambience. Even offered to adapt the menu to meet my dietary requirement. Will definitely come again, and would definitely recommend

We visited the Angel for a special occasion on a Saturday and had a superb meal. Had the set/taster menu (only option on a Saturday evening) which they adjusted for dietary needs. Whilst not cheap it was worth every penny. Every dish (including the canapés which were not on the list) was excellent, for me the squid ink mussel served with they salmon was out of this world. Wine pairings were great as well, and included some unusual wines that I would not normally have tried. Waiting staff were pleasant and the sommelier was very helpful. Open kitchen gave a sense of what was happening (all very calm in there!) and the head chef was very visible.

My wife and I were visiting Dartmouth as an overnight stop off, and she booked The Angel as a birthday treat for me. I am lucky enough to have eaten in some top restaurants, and The Angel is right up there with the best of them. Fantastic tasting menu with all dishes beautifully presented. There is no need to worry about style over substance, though. The flavour combinations were all sublime. The staff were all excellent, attentive, and welcoming. I fail to see how recent negative reviews to the contrary can be remotely true based on my own experience. This was our second visit, and the same can be said of our first experience, too. There was a lovely atmosphere and buzz in the restaurant, which was full, and staff we equally attentive to all other diners. Furthermore, my wife has multiple severe food intolerances, and Ellie cooked a bespoke dish for her. I can not recommend The Angel highly enough.

Elly, what a talented chef you are. Truly delicious tasting menu, massive flavour, such a memorable experience. Hats off to Charles, a skilled affable chap who certainly knows his wines and delivered a first class service with a smile. Certainly not expensive for such quality ingredients, cooked to perfection. We will be back again soon. Well done Elly and team. Christopher and Deborah Davey

Not only some of the best quality food we’ve ever had, but the service we experienced was unmatched.
