Tasty food. Good atmosphere. Good service. Will go there again.

Excellent. We ordered a Halloumi Burger which was brought out with mayonnaise. Being on an egg free diet, I asked if the mayonnaise could be swapped to which they kindly replaced with vegan mayonnaise. As they passed (before we actually started eating), they noticed that the buns that we had also contain eggs. We were more than happy for them to swap the buns and keep the same filling. They went out of there way to give us a freshly made burger. 10/10 for service. Very nice food as well. Thank you.

Lovely food one of the best places to eat in Leicester town. The only downside is the price, even for a lunch with my wife just a main and drink cost about 40, I still think the place is worth it, and I love the decor and mood in the resteraunt. We will be going back very soon... if my wife let's me

A cosy atmospheric restaurant with great food. Generous sharing platters and friendly staff. Waiting time is a little long. Reasonably priced.

Starters of garlic style bread, butter topped pate, posh sounding cheese sticks or squid in breadcrumbs, all of which we poor in taste and quality might usually have had me calling for the check far earlier. Our main meals were far better than the starters, especially so the sea bass which two of us agreed was grilled off to almost perfection. Those that took vegetarian offerings were more than happy with the menu and everyone loved the healthy homely style fries. Burger meals passed with flying colors though I believe 'Bill' needs to up the ante by improving the taste. Steak is on the menu as 16oz, 8oz, or as a smaller offering with egg and fries, so we tried the latter two only to discover that the choice does not include 'cooked rare'. Ordering 'medium' steaks and 'well done' we discovered that these must be cooked by prescribed time without any consideration to the thickness or quality of beef being used. My steak was cooked to a medium standard at the thicker end but was ruined elsewhere, another had half a steak that he struggled to chew plus was almost raw. Finally the steak ordered well done was absolutely spot on which goes to show why we as a group could not reach an agreement on the steak used at Bill's.No puddings were ordered, which is quite rare for our group but perhaps demonstrates how let down we were in general by poorly executed cooking skills.In my view the food was fine, good in places perhaps, but in need of improvement. The waitress executed her job to perfection at every stage which is a rare credit in my opinion, that coupled with the ambiance did improve the mood and general enjoyment of the occasion.
