  “Food was delicious when we finally got it is the only positive thing I can say. We waited an hour and a half for our food to arrive, we were constantly ignored by the waiting staff. One of the waitress actually snatched the menus off one of our party. Not that I went in but my husband said that the men's room was absolutely disgusting.We went to celebrate a birthday expecting live music but there was none on in fact there was no music at all. All around us people where complaining that they hadn't got there food and one couple actually walked out they waited so long. We will definitely not be going back.”

  “Very disappointing meals. Chicken diane was far too salty for everyone who had this dish. Lamb shank was inedible and had to be changed for a different meal. Although the meals were well presented just wished they tasted better. I haven’t had peppered broccoli and carrots before a new experience for us all. The chef needs to review the contents of the sauce as its saltiness ruined the whole meal. Such a shame that not one of us enjoyed our meal. We definitely would not return or recommend this restaurant. This is first time I have ever left a negative review. On a positive note the staff were lovely and we had a nice welcome when we arrived”

  “Beautiful location on a sunny day! We had made a reservation and they hadn't written it down, luckily it wasn't that busy when we arrived Sadly they weren't able to offer me the main course I ordered. My second option turned up and the vegetables were hotter than the chicken! Ordered dessert and 5 minutes later, I was told they didn't have any of that either! The staff could have been a bit more apologetic and attentive at the table.”

  “Place looked lovely, clean with a good atmosphere. Unfortunately we were not able to eat here. We were served quickly for drinks, however they forgot my boyfriend's lager, then proceeded to ignore us for over 20 minutes, tried to give us another table's food, then still didn't take our order for food when we asked. We ended up going to the bar to pay for our drinks and leave to eat elsewhere. Such a shame as the menu looked lovely.”

  “I’ve been twice now and won’t go anywhere else amazing and quick service, friendly staff, amazing food never waiting long and always so fresh and piping hot. If you haven’t been here you’re missing out and you need to try because once you’ve tried you won’t be disappointed and will never want to go anywhere else I know I don’t. Our first visit was Halloween for my mums bday they went above and beyond and when they overheard it was her birthday after food they surprised her and came out with a massive slice of cake with a sparkling candle singing happy birthday. We didn’t ask them to do this or even know they were going to. They went that extra mile which made my mum feel so special so an extra big thank you for that. Thank you to all the staff for the most amazing time we have while dining here”

  “The food is great with a varied selection, though the vegetable portions are small (Rack of Lamb pictured, minus a smaller carrot piece I had already eaten). The Faggots portions are generous, though. The staff are lovely and helpful, and even set a place with biscuits/treats and water for my dog. The atmosphere is great, with a live singer for entertainment (not always, so do check beforehand). I have visited many times and I'm sure I'll be back there soon.”

  “Welcomed by a lovely waiter. Service was great. Waiter provided two menus standard and lunchtime special 3 courses for £22 started with prawn cocktail which was standard, I had sirloin was was tasty but obviously reduced size due to discounted menu, finished with sherry truffle, couldn’t taste any sherry but was refreshing. Wife had prawn cocktail and pollo napoletano which was beautiful. Overall average but good quality.”

  “My husband and I dined at Demiro’s for the first time this afternoon. The restaurant was empty at 15:30pm on a Friday, which was ideal for us as we hadn’t made a reservation. The service was to a very high standard - all of the waiting staff were very friendly and attentive and had fantastic humour. The Festive Menu was very wallet-friendly: 2 courses for £16.95 or 3 courses for £20. The drinks menu is also very extensive and reasonably priced. We enjoyed our meal and will definitely return in the very near future.”

  “Enjoyed a lovely meal here. Had the calamari starter and then the penne salmon. Both dishes were generous portions of tasty ingredients well cooked. Staff exceptionally friendly and welcoming!”

  “Had an… interesting experience at Demiro’s Cardiff Bay. First time going as all the other restaurants in the bay were packed at lunchtime during the weekend. The decor is a bit gaudy but I wouldn’t fault it too much as I feel like they’re going for a broadway kinda theme. The service was prompt and the waiters & waitresses were attentive. The singing waiter took us by surprise, he had a great voice and it was a fun way to pass time between dishes. The food however was incredibly underwhelming. I would not say it was nightmare kitchen bad or undercooked - just not at the level it should be for a restaurant. I’ve ordered a Mushroom focaccia that was definitely not served on focaccia. It was a brioche bun, and its sweet taste contrasted strangely with the savoury mushrooms. The sirloin wasn’t great, I think it was a poor meat cut and it wasn’t marinated or anything so it wasn’t particularly tender. The “salads” served on the side of starters and mains are just some tomatoes and a few leaves of salad that are a bit dry and not very appetising. The ice cream we ordered was mostly ice. I was considering giving 3 stars but the prices charged are no where near the quality of the food. Really overpriced considering you can probably whip out a nicer meal at home for less. They definitely need to invest in hiring a better cook - it’s a pity because otherwise it would be a nicely located restaurant with a beautiful view.”
