I know that Momma Cheri herself appears to be 'on tour' most of the time now (she was away at Glastonbury when we went) but she's clearly taken her eye off the ball here. We went for the Sould Food option and while the atmosphere was nice and the service excellent, the food was not. When you can make most... more

Food was average at best. Service was good until more than 4 tables were filled. Providing toys is a nice touch - but not when the are disgustingly dirty and you have a fight on your hands keeping your child away from them. All in all very dissapointing and I wish I had tried somewhere else. more

I first went to Momma Cherri's about 3 years ago and had "Soul in a Bowl". It was fantastic. It took me a year to get a table again - it was pretty poor and I did not try for years. I tried last week and don't know why I bothered. The cocktails were good. The server was sweet. There... more

After seeing this restaurant on tv i could not wait to try the food. I placed a telephone reservation the previous day to advoid dissappointment although on arrival they did not have any bookings under the names given but promptly arranged a table. We chose the tapas menu (4 starters,4 main) so we had a variety to choose from. The... more

About 30 minutes later we were told our table was ready, however - by the time we walked next door to the restaurant our... more

Me and my husband took my little cousin here in December and after seeing the restaurant on Gordon Ramsey and looking at the menu online we were really excited. On arrival 5 mins early we were told to leave and come back which seemed a bit pointless. We were then served bland and overpriced food and part of my starter... more

Booked Restaurant online with no problems, even offered a discount for lunch. The Restaurant looks very drabb and tired. The food was awful, so bland and flavourless. The chicken legs and chicken wings are just as good, if not better in KFC!. Obviously the Restaurant didn't take onboard any of Gordon Ramseys advise !. On a good note, the staff... more

Good value if you like this sort of thing. Think I got caught up by the hype. Not in a hurry to go back. more
