    The staff were welcoming but did not check us in so received an email saying we did not attend. Food was ok and choices good. However we ordered a bottle of wine which we had to open as waiter had had no training in using a wine waiter corkscrew. We repeatedly asked for the air con to be turned off but no one knew how to do it. The stairs down to the ladies toilet were filthy and one carpet tread was crumpled and a slip hazard.

    This is the second time we have been to Cornelian and we will be back. The menu is varied with plenty to choose from and not too big. The potions are a good size, you do not feel hungry afterwards, you don’t feel hungry afterwards. The waiters were lovely, very attentive, good with recommendations but also left us to enjoy our meal. Sam and Cameron made celebrating my Mother’s 82nd birthday extra special by bringing her a drink with candles in it. Thank you all for a lovely evening, we will def be back!

    We found the food to be excellent. The service was quite poor this was despite it being quiet. Serving staff mostly did nothing and left all the work to one individual. The lack of attention spoilt the occasion despite the excellent food.

    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.
