Absolutely stunning! I booked for a table of 8 and the dormouse haven did not disappoint. Stunning food, individual and personalises service and the loveliest venue we could have asked for. My friends were all very impressed. If you’ve been thinking of going for a while then get booked in because this place is a hidden gem and well worth a visit to celebrate any and every occasion.

First visit to urbano 32, and won’t be my last! The whole party enjoyed their pizzas. Great portion sizes, and service was spot on.

Moules A Go Go

About the restaurant

As the name suggests, Moules a go-go is famous for its mussels, fresh from the shores of Anglesey, served in a variety of ways from simple Moules Marinieres to Korean. The vast selection of seafood dishes ranging from traditional fish and chips to scrumptious Sea Bass is impressive, though equally appealing are the locally sourced juicy steaks . After 17 successful years in business amongst tough competition, Moules a go-go is still going strong, boasting superb food and a great atmosphere in contemporary yet comfortable surroundings. The head chef and manager have been there since the restaurant’s inception; such longevity is a rare blessing in the tempestuous world of the steaming kitchen, but this dedication shows in the consistency and quality of the food and service. Moules a go-go is a real find in the heart of Chester's history.

All the food was amazing, the staff were friendly and the service was good. We didn’t feel rushed even though we were the last to leave. They even put up Happy Birthday bunting, which was a lovely touch. I can definitely recommend this restaurant.

We have been coming here for many years and it has had its ups and downs with the quality of the food. We went yesterday for Sunday lunch and it was excellent. New Chef and new owners. Great for the village. A really nice spot and a good alternative to other food in the area.
