SERVICE was slow and unprofessional.Overpriced food, that was in fact BASIC. Emailed them after meal to complain, received NO RESPONSE. DON'T BOTHER WITH THIS PLACE.

Attended the restaurant on Mother's Day and was very disappointed.We was messed around prior to our booking where we was told the restaurant would not be selling alcohol on Mother's Day. We wanted to change venue as we was planning on celebrating but due to the lack of time between this and our booking we couldn't get in anywhere else. However, randomly we received a call just before Mother's Day to say they will now be selling out alcohol - weird?!Upon arriving at the restaurant, we were given 'set menus'. We weren't informed prior to our booking that we could not choose off the standard menu and that our choices would be limited. This was very annoying and we wish we was told beforehand as some of the dishes we would of liked to order were not available on the set menu.The drinks were stale and flat. Almost, like they had been sitting there for days. I am not sure if this has anything to do with their issues with licencing? My mum ordered an alternative red wine as she couldn't stand the taste, but this was also stale. A simple diet coke was also flat...The food was OK despite the small portion of bread for starters that we had to share between six of us.We left our meal not feeling very satisfied for the money we paid (which was £350!). Out of curiosity, I decided to check the prices of the standard menu comparing to the set menu (which was £36pp) as we thought this was pricey for two courses. I have been to restaurants which were a lot nicer and paid £32 for three courses…We wrote an email to ask why we was charged an extra £55 on top of our meal just for having a set menu but we received no response or a call to clarify why we was overcharged.I would avoid at all costs.

Went for lunch with my family including 2 children and the experience was absolutely delightful! Starting by the customer service by the waitress and waiter followed by the food. Thank you so much! We will be

It was okay for what it was. Not from the area but a few people recommend it so that says something. The dj was decent. We didn't eat. It's probably the best thing in the area if you want more than just a local pub. You can have food then have a boogie later.

Just disappointing. It’s probably hard catering for a big group but I didn’t think anything was done all that well. The steak had no sauce at all and just a bowl of chips. I don’t count a tiny bowl with dry lettuce and half a tomato.The lamb shank had no sauce at all and came in a bowl of water with three diced carrots and one potato floating in the water! It looked poor…The profiteroles were flat with no cream.These are just simple things to put right but the staff rather lacked the decorum to ask if things were ok.The whole thing took too long and many had left before the desserts arrived.As I said, just all slightly disappointing. Nothing is cheap these days so the bar needs to be higher at restaurants like these.Oh, and have you read the set response to poor reviews on here? It’s scandalous!! So much better to apologise and say you’ll try and do better next time. The owner here needs to think again very quickly.

Had to complain twice about the starters that we spent £40 on to discover that they 'sent the wrong ones' waited two hours f9r main courses l... would recommend anything else. When it arrived, the food was cold but

We booked dinner for 4, and were not greeted by anyone for 5 minutes. We tried to speak to someone, to tell us we had arrived for our reservation, and was told to wait by the door. As I walked back, I was pushed out of the way by another member of staff trying to collect beers from the bar. We were not seated for another 10 minutes, and then rushed to an unprepared table. We were not given a menu, and no one took our drinks order. We waited for 15 minutes, and saw chaos on the restaurant floor. Two waitors were arguing publicly and one more was being told off. The service was non-existent/appalling and we left after 20 minutes. The food might be nice, I wouldn't know, but don't go to Ephesus expecting a professional, organised restaurant experience.

I went in a very large group. We took an hour before we ordered because of chat. The staff were amazingly patient about this. The food was really fabulous and the service was quick, efficient and humorous. A really great evening thank you.

Food was hot and tasty the place was packed. Slightly colder in the consservatory. The dj was on TIL late. They were abit disorganised with food after we pre ordered ( group of 20) Trying to get a drink was difficult too Not sure why they let people come in drinks could move or even get out. Good night over all.
Absolitely amazing food, very friendly service, very accommodating, lovely atmosphere and very pretty decor

We went to Ephesius for a birthday celebration & had a fantastic time! The food was absolutely delicious & the waiter service was excellent! They got the balance just right in checking if we needed any drinks etc & letting us enjoy our meals! Highly recommend

Superb vegetarian mezze, really wonderful. Excellent service. Music far too loud in the main restaurant, but fine in the garden room.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian mezze is fantastic. If you are less hungry, the veggie moussaka is also good on its own.
