Restaurant Review

On Wednesday International Dining Group 2 went to the Roundhay Fox. Below is a review of a long evening

The meal on Wednesday evening at the Roundhay Fox was certainly an experience and was embraced by all with good humour. We were a bit perturbed when it took about 20 minutes to get a drink and despite pre-ordering, another 30 minutes for the starters to come. I had spoken to the manager about the delay and was informed there was a problem with the gas which was being "sorted" as we spoke. The manager was mistaken!! The starters were ok and we waited with anticipation for the mains. And waited and waited and waited. 


The staff had all disappeared into the kitchen, including the bar staff. When we could find someone we were reassured it was "on its way".....eventually. The first arrivals were two mains that had been cancelled the previous day ,and all other  mains were announced as 'festive', Festive salmon, festive pork belly but they could have kept the 'festive steak and venison pie'. Each pie had 2 pieces of meat, both unidentifiable, and one was inedible. Both the salmon and turkey were dry but at least, Peter's belly pork was good.

The puddings were another long wait and weren't very good. Eventually the supervisor came to see us. She was obviously embarrassed and very apologetic. She explained there was only one oven working in the kitchen, which had caused the long delays. I did point out that there was no communication with us, and that lack made a bad situation worse. The bill was adjusted to our satisfaction but a repeat visit  will be a long time, if ever.
