  “Had a reservation yesterday( Tuesday evening) no one else there, no atmosphere, very dark inside, no candles on tables or ambience, almost felt it was closing ( at 6.45) or not quite open. Food tasted delicious but £11 for 4 prawns, £11 for mini mini burgers( elaborate name sliders) and same price for 3 mini duck bai buns I thought not good value for money. The waitress, Poppy, was very charming, friendly and helpful. I wish her every success in her new career”

  “The Slanted Door in Stamford is an unparalleled fine dining experience that should not be missed! Situated on the edge of the River Welland, this beautiful restaurant offers a variety of dishes inspired by traditional French and European cuisine. I recently visited The Slanted Door for a special night out with my partner. We were immediately struck by the elegance and ambiance of the restaurant. The food was delicious - every dish was cooked to perfection and presented with care and detail. We started off with some oysters before moving on to lamb shank stew and roast chicken, both of which were beautifully done. For dessert we had a decadent chocolate mousse that melted in our mouths, topped off with a glass of bubbly. Overall, I would highly recommend The Slanted Door Stamford for an unforgettable fine dining experience!”

  “After a day of sunning ourselves at a local reservoir, we decided to have some dinner in Stamford. A Google search identified The Slanted Door as a good option. The images looked nice and when I called for a reservation, I was told it was steak night. Now anyone who reads my reviews knows that I am a sucker for a good steak, so the decision was made. The venue itself is quaint and there is a tiny outdoor balcony, with the weather being this nice, we ate on the balcony. The inside is only small and tables for four are probably the biggest parties to be accommodated comfortably. I obviously opted for the steak (a sirloin with chimichuri sauce and garlic butter) and the steaks are all served with fat chips, a portabello mushroom and tomato. My better half ordered the roasted salmon from the fine dining menu. Now the salmon was cooked well and tasted fresh, but the steak was awful. The cut of meat was not great and the fat chips were not a complimentary side. They were essentially fried mashed potatoes. The steak tasted poor quality and was not pleasant. They advertise a Steak Night, but they really shouldn’t! It is not a good steak and whilst the price is reasonable, the meat is not. It is a nice venue and the service is great, the fine dining menu looks good but avoid the steaks. I would recommend this place, but not for steak night.”

  “One of the best restaurants we have visited in a long time. The service was great, the menu small, simple but perfect, and every dish cooked brilliantly. It’s hard to find a restaurant that ticks all boxes these days, but this one certainly did. Our group of five loved every dish and to top it off the desserts where amazing! Highly recommended.”

  “The food here was absolutely wonderful. We had roast beef, pork and lamb and all were fantastic and the meat was tender, with all the trimmings and the biggest Yorkshire puddings I’ve seen. The decor and comfort were lovely too.”

  “We had a great time here on a cold Wednesday evening whilst celebrating our wedding anniversary. We enjoyed the cocktails for £7 offer and went on to have a delicious meal. The food was absolutely amazing, the best I have had locally for a long time. Service was very friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was cosy and chic. Will definitely be returning!!”

  “Was surprised with a visit her as I celebrated my upcoming nuptials with my friends and I can safely say it was the perfect place. The staff were amazing, so friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them (even though we were at the top level with lots of stairs!) The food was delicious and the presentation fantastic. We booked exclusive use of the terrace where we relaxed and enjoyed some more cocktails and champagne. I will definitely be revisiting this restaurant in the near future.”

  “I had a duck pastrami starter that was poor, for all the ingredients on the plate it lacked any real flavour. Very disappointing. It also arrived at the table almost immediately after ordering as if pre-plated. After a VERY long wait for main course the roast arrived and it was very nice but just needed some seasoning. I’m not sure if they had run out of salt as there wasn’t any on the tables either but that’s all it was missing was a good grind or salt. The dessert was truly exceptional. I wouldn’t rush back but I wouldn’t avoid either.”

  “This lovely restaurant was a treat to my husband and I. Reasonably priced for what we recieved. Service was impeccable and the ambience was amazing. We had to whole top floor to ourselves 🙌🏾 but the highlight was the amazing food and cheese platter. Cannot wait to come back on payday.”
