"Just back from the Valentine's Tasting Menu night. Absolutely beautiful food, cooked by students who are only one year into their courses and they excelled themselves. From the seafood which was cooked and presented exquisitely to the steak, braised cheek and Morroccan Spiced Pie and the abundance of delectable chocolate desserts everything was perfect. Those who were serving/waiterung were attentive, friendly and polite. Nothing was too much trouble and two were on a course through school and were outstanding anticipating what what you needed before you even knew. This is the second fundraising night we have attended and both were amazing. I hope all the students feel very proud of what they have achieved and I hope they have a great time in London. To all those staff and more experienced students it was a lovely evening thank you to you all too."

"My granddad's favourite meal from Chenzos is no longer on the menu--a tagliatelle with Chenzo's sauce. When he was dying last year, we phoned in and asked if he could make some of this dish for us to take away. He did it every day we asked, and always with a smile. Granddad's appetite dried up in his final months, but he would always go for a Chenzos : And I got to enjoy some of the pizza too, which is superb! I was visiting my nana today and we helped ourselves to another Chenzos today--and once again, he made the tagliatelle for my nana. I doubt they know how much it meant to my grandparents during granddad's illness that he kept taking the time to make this comfort dish, but it meant loads and loads and I apprecioate it greatly. Thank you!!"

"Avoid this place at all costs. I am extremely disappointed with my experience here - it's the worst Indian food I've had in years. You could get a better curry from a microwave meal at Tesco. The Karahi lamb was tasteless with a thin layer of oil on top instead of a rich curry sauce. The butter chicken was bland and sour, while the chicken jalfrezi tasted like watery tomato soup. When we called to complain, we were brushed off and made to feel like we were lying because these dishes are apparently popular. In short, our feedback was not taken well and I've wasted £60 on inedible food. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere for your curry fix."

"Went for the set dinner today and none of the food tasted fresh except the cheesecake dessert.. definitely the worst Christmas dinner I've had everything was made from frozen. roast potatoes, veg, stuffing. What made it worse was the service, maybe if the waitresses smiled or even had some manners. Had to ask for food to be taken away from table, we were never asked how the food was or if we needed anything. no glasses were taken away either so tables were just a mess. Will not be back."

"has heard good things about this place, so we thought we would try. when entering, there was a strong smell of cheap bleaching agents that immediately put me down. we were welcomed immediately and brought to a nice table. the menu was very...limited that I had to begin the garlic mushrooms with which were not particularly pleasant. the prawn cocktails looked good, but nothing outstanding. we had a bottle chianti that was beautiful and a bottle of Italian Sauvignon Blanc that was quite bad and not very cold, but we drank anyway. the pizzas were absolutely delicious, but the carbonara was a little tasteless. the service was good and the waiting staff was friendly. the lighting is much too bright. defeats the purpose of beautiful little candles on the tables. no need for these bright ceiling downlights. he just doesn't create the right ambiente. overall an average experience and I would like to recommend."
