Had a really lovely experience at Roly's Bistro. We were there for my mother's birthday, Khan and all the other staff could not have done more in order to ensure that our experience was as enjoyable as possible. The staff at Roly's bistro really went above and beyond for us. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the brie, fishcakes and hake. We will definitely returning!
