Excellent lunch menu at chiquitos!
Advantages: excellent food, great lunch menu price, good service Disadvantages: ashame they don't have the lunch menu offer all the time
I regularly visit chiquitos and have the lunch menu! Last time I went I had a 3 course meal for just 8.45 there are also other options to have a one course meal and two course meals but I find this price amazing ecspecially when the price of my verde nacho starter added up to about 6 pounds and the fajitas 8. The fajitas are really good they come out sizzling on a pan with 4 tortillas cheese, salsa, and vegetables. The service was excellent staff ... ...table straight away. Chiquitos food is excellent and I would happily pay full price for a meal there but the lunch menu 12-5pm monday-friday is a good way to save money and have a lovely meal. I would reccommend this to anyone who loves mexican food or who wants a great meal. ...

Amazing food.
Advantages: Good food, good service, fun decor Disadvantages: Quite noisy and busy.
Booking
I booked online, only to find out after that they don't actually operate a booking system only a 'priority seating system' which they say aims to seat your group within 5 - 10 minutes of your chosen time slot. This concerned me slightly as I had booked for a late afternoon on a Sunday and didn't really want to have to hang around hence me wanting to book. This wasn't a problem, we were actually early and seated straight away. The ... ...big and when I visited very busy. My first though about the restaurant was that it was quite tacky, but in a very strange fun way not a cringe worthy way!.
Its a very fun restaurant, this however made me think that the staff were going to be extremely irritating. I was wrong, our waitress was lovely and very helpful. The Food
We didn't have high expectations about the actual food we were really going for the experience of the restaurant. ...

Advantages: Dont knock it til you try it ! Disadvantages: Once you try it you will most definitely knock it!!!!
...myself.
Upon arrival at Stringfellows I was looked up and down by the bouncers - sorry, "doormen". I dont think they liked the look of me much. I could tell by the way my coat and shoes caused their lips to curl away from their teeth. At the vital moment (thats the moment before i got thrown about twenty feet closer to Shaftesbury Avenue) out came my girl, Bubbly Jo, and saved my tush from certain beats.
The staff could not contain their dislike ... ...all very nice decor inside Stringfellows - i mean its a kind of luxurious feeling, red velvety place, with thick carpets and opulent drapes and curtains hanging everywhere. Pretty barmaids and barmen serve you, Good looking waiting staff bring the food. There are upstairs and a downstairs sections, as i mentioned earlier . The upstairs is the restaurant mainly, bar and dancing girls. Then theres the downstairs, which is more of a nightclub. Dj playing ...

Who wants to go back to sKool?!
Advantages: Great music Disadvantages: It's a bit of a rip off
...if people liked you. School was a tough time for a lot of people, but apparently there are thousands every week who want to go back and relive it at SchoolDisco.com at Po Na Na nightclub in Hammersmith (Aka, Hammersmith Palais).
--------How much?--------- I personally loved school. It was a great time for me. However I did not enjoy School Disco nearly as much as I had hoped. For months we had been planning to go there but it was always called off ... ...and it is mandatory at School Disco to wear school uniform, PE kit or dress as another school character (dinner lady, teacher etc). If you aren't dressed up you don't get in. So we girls spent several hours dressing up in our shortest skirts, funky black tights/over the knee socks, white shirts and school ties and put our hair in all manner or different plaits and bunches. We all decided to wear trainers as we knew it would be a long night with lots ...

Zizzi Leeds - delicious food but poor service
Advantages: Food was delicious and the pudding was heavenly Disadvantages: Waiters not interested in customers
...friend and I went to Zizzi on Sunday 1st March at 5.45pm for a pre-gig meal. Even though the restaurant was nearly empty, we weren't shown to a table for 5 minutes. We ordered main courses and they were delicious, not huge portions but very tasty. Then we attempted to order pudding. After 15 minutes we still hadn't been able to catch eye of one of the 3 waiters. When one eventually deigned to take our order, he said that there was no coffee, as the ... ...only wanted one pudding (my friend had wanted a coffee instead). The pudding also took ages to arrive but it was heavenly by the way.
Then we tried to get the bill - again no one seemed interested in us. We were sitting near the door so we actually discussed getting up and walking out to see if they took any notice of us. When the waiter did eventually bring the bill, I was roused for the first time I can remember into NOT leaving a tip (I was a ...
