After being a loyal customer for years at the Empire and then the Osborne, we have been refused a booking for 12 people as we might be noisy and disturb the other diners! We originally tried to book the Osborne for 12 people 5 wks in advance but were told we could not book the table more than two weeks before the date! Then 10 days before the date we wanted, we were told that they would not accept a party greater than 8! If we’d been told that, when we made the original enquiry, we could have made alternative arrangements. I wanted to celebrate my husband’s 70th birthday, we are definitely not a rowdy group. We are now struggling to find somewhere suitable and will more than likely have to put off our celebration! So disappointed.

Love this restaurant great meal the steak is fab. The staff are lovely as they always are in The Empire Hotel you need to book so as not to be disappointed. Fab price if you don't mind the set menu or a la cart if you can afford to push the boat out.

The interior of the hotel is beautiful, great classical decoration but with tasteful modern features and a nice view of the pool. The food itself was decent, not the best food I have tasted but was good. Usually I like a smaller menu but I think this menu was a bit too small. But the 3 course detail was well worth it.

Seven of my family attended at the Poolside Restaurant. We all had the three course set meal which had an excellent choice of food. I had pate, goulash and sticky toffee which I really enjoyed. Just one small complaint by a family member that the lemon meringue roulade lacked a lemon taste. Hotel looking a bit tired in places and drinks a little expensive. Otherwise food was excellent

Very disappointing meal, unfortunately The Empire is riding of standard of restaurant in the past. My partner had a ribeye steak,worst quality ever had, considering the wonderful quality of beef in Conwy Valley. We had the set menu for £22 including 1/4 carafe of wine which wasn’t bad. Overall quality of food wasn’t worth the money. Instead of including wine they should put more effort into the food.

We were visiting Llandudno to visit family there for my father's birthday. We were struggling to find somewhere suitable with good English food & came across the poolside restaurant in the Empire Hotel. We booked a table. There is very limited parking in Llandudno so make sure you give yourself time to park & get there. On arrival we we told where to go, on the way we stopped at the bar for pre-dinner drinks which were expensive & they didn't have lemonade on tap only small bottles. We were then met in the lounge area where we were asked if we wanted to sit at our table or wait a bit so we went in. The restaurant was well furnished & there were large windows overlooking the indoor pool area. The meals were very reasonably priced at £22.50 if you kept to the 3 course menu which came with a glass of wine. The serving staff were all professional & well presented. They supplied bread while we waited for our food. The food was well presented & hot when it arrived which there wasn't a long wait for between courses. The desserts were all made in house & were very good. The food was to a very high standard & would recommend eating here if you are in the area especially if it is for a special occasion.
