    We really enjoyed our Saturday evening meal at Griddle Bar and Meat house and will definitely be coming back. We sat downstairs and the atmosphere was really good. We had booked but when we arrived our table wasn’t ready, we came back 20 mins later having gone for a drink. We ordered the red wine but would have liked a bit more choice of wines. We had the chateaubriand which was cooked really well, chips were tasty and salad a nice side. I think this place is close to 5 stars all round, the team are new and need a bit of time to come together, organise themselves a little better and to anticipate what the tables need (we had to asked for cutlery and plates and needed to ask for condiments). Small things that can easily be improved on. This is exactly the type of restaurant that Ely needs; good quality food, cooked well and local. We’ll be back!

    Staff were helpful and informative, food was cooked nicely and tasty. My only criticism would be the cost of some of the sides, I thought £4 for a very small pot of coleslaw and £3 for an even smaller pot of sauce was a little excessive. Saying that I would still recommend the restaurant if asked

    On arrival, shown to our table by the waitress. Finally ordered our drinks, asked for jug of tap water for the table. This did not arrive and had to ask 3 times for the water. Finally ordered our food. Found the pricing quite expensive as we had to order sides and sauces at an extra charge each. For instance I paid £15 just for a garlic chicken breast. Following our order, most food arrived, when 2 of our diners were told that they could not have the chips as the fryer had gone off so they could get a refund on these, no option of having another side order. We had to ask if we could change the side orders. 1 diner asked for a burger, when arrived it was pink. Asked if we could have this well done, waitress took the burger back to the chef and we could hear quite clearly he was no happy and asked what the problem was with it. The waitress came over and asked if the burger was cold, to which the diner said no I just want the burger well done. Finally got our meals, had to ask for the sauces as they did not come with the meal. During the meal we could hear the chef raising his voice and another member of staff saying they did no wish to be spoken to like that, clearly some sort of argument between staff members. Over all we were left quite disappointed with meal and staff need to be where that diners can hear all the conversations going on.

    It's been great discovering this local gem in Ely. The food is fantastic and the service was friendly and efficient. The place has a lovely cosy feel and it was easy to have a conversation, even with a full restaurant around us. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and look forward to my next visit. 5*****

    Food was impeccable and tasty. Arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious. My husband and I both had burgers and fries, which we thoroughly enjoyed. My husband had a lager, which I sampled, and it was equally delicious. Cannot recommend highly enough. We will be making this location a date-night regular.

    A very enjoyable afternoon. Fantastic service. Our waitress was very pleasant, friendly and attentive. The cocktail I chose was excellent. Really interesting and different menu. Food was delicious. My only comment was it could have been slightly hotter. Well cooked. Good sized portion. Nicely presented. Great value for money. We weren’t rushed. I would totally recommend and will be back. Thank you for making us so welcome and comfortable.

    Really great addition to Elys food scene. Good quality and good value with enough attention to detail that you feel you are having a treat without being stuffy. The best garlic mash and cauliflower cheese ever😀. Steaks cooked very well. Will definitely be going again.
