    We went here to celebrate my graduation but found the prices to be a bit high and the staff were not friendly

    The food was fresh and very tasty. Considering how quiet it was the service was not the best as took a while for food to arrive and to clear empty plates but the quality of the food certainly made up for it. It was our first visit and will definitely be back.

    Came for a birthday Sunday lunch, had to wait ages to do a drinks order...and had to ask for every refill thereafter. Waiters did not look around enough, to allow uou to catch their eye...even though they should be chexking on you regularly anyway. Food was ok, but overpriced compared to other very good offerings in the town.

    This is the 5th time we have eaten he and sadly it will be the last. We went for sunday lunch and whereby in the past it has always been delicious this time i wouldnt have fed it to the dog. The beef was stringy and cold and was laying on cold mashed potato, accompianied by luke warm part cooked veg. I questioned my drink price £4.90 for a pint of lager shandy and the bill was changed to show half a lager £2.45 and half a lemonade £2.00. We first went when it first opened and the sunday lunch was lovely, not sure if the chef has changed but he really needs to heat his food up before serving to customers.

    Have used this restaurant on a few occasions and all has been good-however this time the service standards and food were all sadly below par and this will make me think twice about using -

    This is the fourth time I've visted Karbon Grill and have loved it every time. The steak is a must and is one of the best I've ever had. The service is perfect and the prices are more than justifiable. Karbon Grill is perfect for an extra special date night. Always book just to be safe!
