Pick More Daisies review by Gav
ok so I went here the first time and the service was awful but the food was great. It was a slow night and there was only a few other diners in the restaurant but the wine took ages to arrive and was plonked on the table. The staff went round the back to chat and ignored us for most of the evening. However the food was spot on a and pretty reasonable.
I came out thinking, definitely give it another go so I did ...
This time completely the opposite. It was busier and the service was very good - really I can't fault them. However, I ordered scallops to start as did one of my dining partners and they were rank. They tasted if they had come out of a freezer then left on the side. To add insult to injury they were poorly cooked and who ever though of the combo they were served with - some sort of mango and pepper salsa should be banned from ever creating a menu - it was like one of those Gordon Ramsay moments from his show when an aspiring chef tries to combine nectarine and sauages. The steak salad was decidedly well done - we had asked for rare and poorly thrown together - the one we had on the first visit was very good.
Anyway starters were poor and the burger was pretty average compared to the last one I tried on a previous visit as were the other mains.
If they sack the chef, source fresh ingredients and sort out the menu this will be a good little place to visit.
It's not awful as a package just very careless. It's hard to rate so i've gone with a split average.
