Ashmores Restaurant - Nottingham

This was the first time I visited this place. On arrival, we found out you could only order from the Christmas menu, which is very limited. The quality of the food was very poor, and what you would expect from a budget cafe and the serving sizes were small. No matter what main course you ordered, you got the same roast potatoes and veg to share !!! Even a choice of new potatoes would have been better. If you just want a low end meal then this is for you.

4 of us booked the French evening. Four courses for £30 so excellent value. Onion soup, sweet and delicious , a choice of 3 starters, mains and desserts. My starter was scallops, juicy and plump. A main course of halibut left me almost too replete to tackle the tarte au citron, but I managed to squeeze it in. Everything beautifully presented and efficiently served.

I phoned yesterday to book a table for lunch for my wife and I today. Wonderful friendly greeting on the phone was matched with friendly yet professional greeting in person. The french onion soup was better than anything in France. The pork loin had an excellent farmer to match the brilliant butcher who delivered tender and succulent meat to Ashmores' amazing chef. All in all an excellent lunch at our leisure

Sunday Lunch at Ashmores is always good delicious home cooked meals without the washing up. Proper food made with love and care, and quality ingredients. I 've been to this family run restaurant numerous times and it 's always a lovely experience; from the warm greeting when you walk through the door until you say goodbye, and they make an amazing Sunday roast! The goats cheese pumpkin soup starter looked and tasted scrumptious. The roast beef was cooked perfectly super tender, served with a generous helping of all the trimmings and the baked vanilla cheesecake profiterole desserts were seriously delicious. Great food, great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. It 's a real all rounder. My Mum already booked a return visit to celebrate a 'big ' birthday in December.

We were invited to Ashmores for a friend's birthday. There were about 20 of us. We were served promptly and the food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, fresh and flavoursome. The waiting staff were smartly dressed, efficient and super friendly. I had melon for starter, chicken breast in red wine sauce for mains and raspberry bavarois. Everything was amazing!!! The melon and berries were so fresh. As my main course arrived I could smell the red wine sauce soooo good. The raspberry bavarois light and full of raspberries. It was heavenly. We loved the restaurant too, well spaced out (not crammed in) and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely be going back when we visit friends, sadly we do not live in Nottingham.
