    Took the family for dinner Bank holiday Monday night. Restaurant was quite quiet so atmosphere was a bit subdued but that’s clearly not their fault. We had a very young waiter but he was brilliant. Very polite and friendly so big rock for the service. 5 of us dined and all had different stuff. Everything looked amazing and tasted really good. Good wine list choice wise and again drinks service was really good. First time here but will certainly come again. Thank you for a very enjoyable evening and £210 for 5 of us which I thought was very good. Recommend you try it.

    We love Cornelians and have been many times but yesterday was a disaster all 4 meals were very average both Pork dishes were large portions but very dry the Lamb was very over cooked and the fish n chips full of oil so all overcooked they had no white wine apart from the expensive stuff as it was not a special occasion we went for a red such a shame as service was good as normal We know when doing anew venture others suffer which we believe was the case. But there so many good places in Staines and around you have to be on your game and yesterday they clearly were not

    The meal and the service were excellent. The waiting staff dealt well with a couple of difficult tables.

    We had a lovely family meal at Cornelian in Staines. We all had the two course Sunday lunch and it was all cooked to perfection. The staff were all very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Food was delicious and fresh, can’t wait to go back again!
