The Richmond Restaurant

Sadly, for me, the meal we had could only get two stars although aspects of the meal were fine – my mushroom risotto was delicious and desert was tasty – and hence three stars as a rating. But the 'special summer menu' feels weak. Starters in particular are unremarkable and (because our table had just-about all the options between us) were not very successful. They looked OK on the plate but lacked tasty oomph! The pulled pork pate lacked herbs or spices that would have cut through the fattiness.
The real issue was with service. Over ONE HOUR between finishing my main course and the arrival of dessert, and that was only after tracking down staff to trigger seeing the menu for desserts. And waiters really should not refer to older members of the party as 'darling' or reply to each part of the order with 'no problem'! There was an event on elsewhere in the hotel that night, which may have meant that waiting staff were pulled in to cover that event. But to be left for one hour is unacceptable and frustrating, and spoilt what we hoped would be a nice meal. I will not return to The Richmond because this was a bad experience.

Lovely food , would eat there again without hesitation.

Excellent venue and attention to detail for a black tie past presidents event
