"Booked this venue for a family party for 18. The whole process of booking and obtaining information was so easy. Everyone I spoke to was so helpful and couldn’t do enough to help. On the day the Carvery and desserts were excellent and Jamie and the rest of the staff were so welcoming and attentive. They even cut up our celebration cake and wrapped the slices so everyone could take it home! Just the best customer service for miles!"

"The food is really enjoyable. Some of the meat can be a bit dry in parts but generally speaking it's quite good. Is it better than what you'd get at the average chippy? Not for what it costs. Ordering two box meals and a couple of sides got the cost up to £50 with charges. Considering a large mixed meat in naan at my local chip shop is £7, it's incredibly expensive.There's far too much waste which really needs to be addressed. Every food item is at least two layers of packaging deep. With a box meal you have the outer corrugated cardboard box, then all dividers inside, then the kebab sandwich is in a box of its own, then it's in a foil wrapper, then it's in a paper wrapper. It's all needless waste and when we're all trying to be more conscious of our carbon footprint this just isn't required.There are some nice things that just aren't replicated elsewhere, their kebab bread is fantastic and very similar to a traditional Turkish pide. Their sauces are really good too. Full of flavour and balanced well with the meat but I will say there's never enough of it. Three little poxy pots is all you get.The fries are average. Nothing remarkable about them. The spicy fries are a tasty addition but this option does bump up the price but again, perfectly average.Overall I'd recommend that it's worth trying at least once but the prices are way over valued and quantity in some areas lack. If they cut down on all the needless packaging they could even bring the prices down but £15-20 for a box meal (one can of pop, one kebab sandwich, one fries and two spring rolls) it's a bit of a joke."

"First visit and will be last.. went from excellent to disappointed within half an hour of being there… the starters were nice loved it!! The mains were nice at first but eating.. me being me when the waitress came over first time asking how was...the food and I was like yeah good.. but after some bites later the garlic in the risotto just took over was just overpowering.. I asked if it’s possible to take it home and she was like no it’s sea food we are not allowed.. if can’t take it home why is it on just eat menu.. I just don’t understand the logic.. then I was like I can’t eat it it’s just over powering with garlic all you could taste was pure garlic might aswell given me a garlic clove instead of the risotto. The waitress literally gave me attitude and was like “you should of said something first time round and we could of done something about it” so I spent on a lovely starter! She seen my plate was still full hardly touch didn’t even offer like knock some price on it (I work in hospitality aswell) The other staff was nice just the one (iasmia) who needs to control her face expressions and attitude when talking to guests when there’s situation like that!"

"Visited limes last night with friends for a birthday celebration after reading the reviews. We had an amazing time, the restaurant is beautiful inside and the menu is amazing. So many different dishes I have never seen before. The waiters were excellent, timely services and extremely knowledgable about the menu and gave perfect recommendations. The duck starter was superb. All of the food was excellent and plenty of it. Our friends live a distance away but have already said that this will be our regular. Can’t fault the service, food or atmosphere. A definite winner."

"My family came to this restaurant three months ago for an intimate birthday celebration with five people. Every dish we ordered was served perfectly and in generous portions that we all enjoyed. The poppadoms with toppings were fresh and crispy, the pilau rice and plain rice were fluffy and flavorful, and the naans were hearty and better than any other I've had elsewhere. We tried multiple curries, including Chicken Tikka Masala and Jalfrezi, all of which were delicious and tender. I highly recommend this restaurant for families and small parties. Despite being busy, the quality of the food did not drop and we had a great experience overall. My family loves the Lamp Restaurant and we have visited before. Thank you to the staff!"
