Awwh, thanks for this one. We went for my husbands 70th Birthday in 2019. James Martin was there and came over and chatted , he is so lovely and not a bit'starry', just a down to earth lad. When the bill arrived, he'd paid for our , not cheap wine. My Husband died in 2021. A very important memory for me, so I thank you again.
Glad you enjoyed your visit and experience of both the restaurant and its chef/owner Lauren. I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. Thank you for sharing your special memories. Every best wish x
I agree! I've watched every review Gary has done and not one of them has him being anything other than himself. Other reviewers have morphed into their version of a Michelin guide adjudicator, trying to be too complicated and use stupid terminology. Gary says it how it is, and if it isn't up to par, that's what he says!
I'm a fan of the compact menu concept. Especially when the offerings are changed on a weekly/monthly basis. It cuts down on inventory and food wastage and allows the kitchen staff the freedom to be creative and inventive.
@@GaryEats - must say that I'm very appreciative that you and "the cameraman" put yourselves through such tribulations for our viewing pleasure. It's a tough job! I'm glad that you're part of the team that has stepped up to the challenge and declared that calories are just numbers that get in the way of a good feed.
Wonderful to see you too 🎆 I'm smiling at the red car in the intro. Drives up, sees Gary then reverses, they must know you'll be dashing across the road at any minute 😉
*Food looked Exquisite- supreme quality- I do put James Martin as my top favourite celeb chef and this place definitely definitely has got top notch food 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌*
James Martin's is definitely an occasion restaurant. I think it would make for a very pleasant night on the town, a bit of gambling and a fine meal. I thought the food looked delicious, I personally would order a steak. It is also nice that they offered you a complementary drink for the mistake with the dessert. I am pleased to see that not all celebrity Chef restaurants disappoint. Gary really enjoyed the review.............Cheers.
There is also a really cool axe throwing place and a good comedy club nearby here. Had considered going here for food on a date night before and after this review by Gary I am sure I will add it to the list of places to visit.
James Martin is in my top 5 favourite chefs when he does his Saturday kitchen live he seems like a real genuine man and doesn't make too much of a fuss. Great review Gary.
@@gemmahandley9394 100%. If you go through some of the comments you will see my opinion isn’t unusual. Anyway, it’s not about JM, It’s about Garry’s reviews.
I live in the Pacific Northwest and so will likely never visit any of the establishments you review, but I am always so pleased when you (and the cameraman) post a new review. Thank you so much!
The croupier looked like he could do with a good few meals lol, but seriously Gary, that was fun to watch and in our opinion, James joins James May in quality and ambiance. Fab review with the usual great humour, cheers 😊👍
The restaurant seemed, from the video, seemed to have a lovely ambience. The presentation of the food was top tier. I agree that the portion of lamb seemed a bit meagre. The overall price is a bit steep but you're paying for quality over quantity. Great review Gary. Credit to the camera work and production. This channel just gets better and better and you've stayed true to your original style. 10/10
I like James Martin so I'm pleased that his restaurant didn't disappoint. I'd have say that, to me, the portion size looked good as did the food. Quality always shines through. Thanks for the video. Cheers.
Always seem to be holding your breath when going to these celebrity chef restaurants, but James certainly delivered. I think it was a fair criticism about the lamb portion size. Entertaining as ever Gary.
Loved sharing that experience with you Gary and love your sense of humour. It all looked delicious but agree the portion of lamb was disappointing , especially for the price. 175k subs and growing!!! 🎉🎉🎉
I’m so relieved that you enjoyed this Gary. After some of the celebrity places you’ve been to, I was worried you’d be disappointed. James Martin is my favourite chef and I’d have hated for his place to be rubbish. I appreciate it’s very expensive, but I’d pay it for a lovely treat. It would be something to always remember. xxx
I know some people don't like these celebrity chef restaurant reviews but I think they're really important, they tell us which are worth visiting and which are tourist traps better off avoiding (Gordon Ramsay comes to mind..)
Ha ha you loved that didn’t you Gary?!! Banging food, great ambiance and that dessert - bung it all in! Glad to see you so happy and steady on with your £2 bet😂😂! Another great review boys, thank you😘
Not sure everyone realises that James is a classically trained chef, spending several years in old school French, classical restaurants. That's really hard work, and the skills and experience gained is second to none. One reason James has always been very respectful of revered chefs; Michel Roux, Raymond Bland, Pierre Koffman etc.
I would go just for that sticky toffee pudding Gary. Loved the venue, decor and style with the cooking being high quality. Definitely one to try when in the area. James Martin restaurants look like a thumbs up.👍🏻
Thank you Gary, loved it, but you promised me you would have cheese one day?? I would have with choice gone with the Mackerel, your main and cheese!! But no one takes me out so guess I'll settle for your choice! Again thank you both. 🌹🌹👍👍👍👍
Hi Gary I was relieved to see a good review after seeing Greeno was a fan of the other James Martin restaurant. He seems to be the best reviewed celebrity chef at the moment. Lovely stuff, that starter was something else! 🤓🥩🥂
Really enjoyed your banter Gary this used to be a regular spot for myself and my wife when we used to live in Manchester nice to see the quality of food and service is still top drawer ❤
As a fan, I must say Gary, that even though everyone loves that you reply to every comment, there is no shame if you had to reign that in. Alot of time must go into that. That you do shows your character, but given the increase in number, there is definitely, absolutely no obligation, and is even unreasonable of people to expect it! Just to put that out there X
Is Porterhouse what we used to call T-bone? All them caliries will be down to the crazy amount of butter James Martin uses! 😂 Another great review mate 👍😃
Great video Gary. I love it when you show the full menu as I always pause the video to choose what I would have. I chose exactly the same as you today. OMG I was drooling seeing that sticky toffee pudding.
James Martin is an excellent patisserie chef and known for it. The menu looks classy. That bhaji I would love to try as it looks lovely. Cheese and onion are a marriage made in heaven . I love lamb and I do feel you should have had more for your pennies, but delicious anyhow and the rosti lovely. A lovely venue and menu. Thank you for an excellent review. Have a super relaxed evening our lovely Gary and Son x 😊
A very classy location and I agree Maris, I think with more lamb on the plate then we were getting very close to a perfect 10 but I felt the portion let it down, thank you always x
I think as long as people keep paying these insane prices, the more these so called celeb chefs will keep raising the prices, I make damn good bhajis, I'm gonna sell them on street corners £3.00 each and make around 600% profit!
@@Heygoodlooking-lk9kg I'm sure you do. But everyone is entitled to a treat now and again. Don't forget that if you sell your delicious bhajis to try include a cheesy sauce with them. Something very different for sure 😊
Now you really are a naughty boy!!!...tempting me with that Sticky Toffee Pud!!...& then you go & ''chuck it all in there'' with the ice cream & caramel crunch...oh dear me. I nearly climbed into the computer screen!😊😊 James Martin always did make extremely scrumptious puddings. I love the way you describe food...it honestly makes the viewer feel they are eating it with you!! And then you go chatting away to the cutlery & a Skeleton💀on the way out! (He could've done with a bit of that pudding!). You really make me giggle. x J x🐞🍧✨
My friend was on a cruise with a James Martin resturant... he was also on board the ship. He had reserved a table and happened to bump into him in a lift. He mentioned he was looking forward to his meal in his resturant, and got blanked by Martin. My friends a really nice/honest guy, and would not say this if not true. Just saying some people arn't always the person they present on screen. That aside, the food looked good. Love your channel!
Wow, was just coming on to say the same thing. A friend of my Uncle's met him on a cruise ship too. Said he went to chat to him and say he came from Yorkshire like him. He said he turned up his nose and said he didn't come from that place, then walked away from him looking disgusted. Too up himself.
Yet another terrific video. That meal looked fabulous, especially that dessert. I'm fine with the portion sizes; in the US, restaurants tend toward large portions. Your meal looked to be near 4,000 calories, enough for two days! Glad to see there is at least one celebrity chef restaurant that rates highly. Terry
Hi Gary! One of my favourite vlogs from Greeno was his review of James Martin's "The Kitchen", so very keen to see what you thought of James' casino restaurant. I don't mind a compact menu, it stops me from faffing about too much! The interior of the restaurant looked beautiful. I absolutely loved the bowls too. You seemed genuinely taken aback by how good the onion bhaji was! Could tell by your reaction & description that it was truly a stand-out starter. The lamb seemed a little light on the portion, but still a lovely dish. I love a sticky toffee pudding as well. That looked delicious. OK Gary, this is another one for my list! Honestly at this point, I may as well just move to the UK! 🤔😅 Brilliant review as always. Your energy & enthusiasm is lovely & a nice bit of humour thrown in near the end there with your attempted gambling! See you on the next one & please stay safe on your travels. Take care. 🌷💙
I remember Greeno loved his and I really enjoyed it too. It’s even more surprising that me and Greeno ended up agreeing on something. Glad you enjoyed the video lovely Erin 💙💙
@@GaryEats The food at The Kitchen looked amazing. Very expensive though, if I remember correctly. Thank you Gary & another fantastic review by you & Mr C! Thoroughly enjoyed it. 💙
Well displayed presentation and whole meal did look as if it was a good experience Gary Think the portion size good had been slightly bigger but not my much. Marking from me before your reveal 8/10 Marc In Bletchley
Ahhh what a lovely looking place with ambience for a special night. Great review and camera work. I wanted to dive into the ice cream and pudding. Love the humour re gambling and that spoon did need a special Gary telling off 😂❤
Thanks Gary. I had a really glum day at work today, but getting home and watching one of your videos has really cheered me up. Food looked fantastic! Glad you enjoyed.
Another great review Gary ,you and the cameraman deserve a lot of credit,c'mon lets give it a go for 200k subscribers, all the best mate from the welshman in Georgia USA
Like you, James Martin is one of my favourite chefs, loved the food and loved the atmosphere, one for a special day. Lovely review as always and very fair, thank you Gary ❤
At last. A celebrity chef who seems to care about his restaurants. As. Greano visited one and loved that too. Food looked excellent altho I'm with you, they do skimp on the portions at these places lol. As always Gary, loved the video and great seeing you again
Fantastic. I agree with you about the lamb though...it just needs one more slice. I love that the menu is limited. I like restaurants with limited menus as I often think they concentrate more on quality.
First comment from me. Been following since the 50k followers days. Doing Manc in a couple weeks, this and the Tapas are on my list. Did do the haddock and chips at the Hind Head in Bray on your recommendation, and completely agreed. Cheers.
That food all looked wonderful. Yes I’d prefer to have more on my plate for the main course but for top quality food you have to pay for it. Excellent review mate, thanks 😊
Hi Gary. I often go to the Napoleons casino/restaurant in Bradford. £27.00 for 3 courses including a drink and a £5.00 bet in the casino. The food is good, not fantastic, but good. You can have extras if you want at an additional cost.most casinos have some sort of offer on the food to draw you in. It works for me as I like to play Blackjack it’s always good value and decent. Seemed a bit pricey but I like James Martin as well, so would have paid it without complaint as it was obviously good. Thanks for the great review Gary and son 🥰
Been down to town many times living close by in littleborough but unfortunatly my good lady would never walk through a casino to get to a meal out ,i probably wouldnt either.Great review as always Gary . Just thought id say James Martin as an afterthought comes across a top fella ,great to watch on TV.
Interesting review Gary! I know that Greeno said that James Martin's "The Kitchen" in the New Forest was the best meal he'd ever reviewed! maybe give that one a go!!
Thank you Gary and Camera man. Food looked great but main course lacking portion wise. Dessert looked amazing. Time to run that marathon my friend lol. Excellent job as usual 😁😁👍👍
Fast food joints are there to fill a gap , places like this are about having a special moment and enjoying the ambience , talking about the food on your plate and enjoying each others company. It's not something to be rushed but savoured on more than one level. I'm a lover of lamb but on this occasion reckon I'd have been all over that rabbit ( no Jessica jokes please) as it's a game food that's not often seen on menu's these days but still a clear favourite in our house. So glad you enjoyed this as it's our kind of eating out preference , great review and a round of applause for James 👏
Totally agree Terry! One of the few celebrity restaurants that seems to offer real quality. I think Gary was a bit surprised & very pleased by how good it all was. 💙
@@butterflydiva1 Thanks for getting in touch Maria, it was so much better than that Ramsey rubbish we have seen on the channel 😂 Take care as always 😘 xx
I'd give it an 8 based on price vs portion sizes. Great that you found a TV Chef restaurant that does what it says on the tin. Another superb review, thanks Gary & Cameraman
Hi Gary, James tried this concept of a restaurant within a casino in Leeds about 10 years ago, though his restaurant was excellent it folded when the casino folded. I tried one of James Martins' restaurants in his hometown of Malton a few years back, and it was top draw!!! Keep up the great reviews 👍
We know how good that bahji was when you gave us the signature move... Sat back with that big smile.. The good ol Gary this is amazing pose. 🤣😀 The food looked great, I agree with you though, the lamb was short a slice and the potato should be standard. Another super honest review. Great to see a celebrity chef deliver the goods. 👍👍👍
Awwh, thanks for this one. We went for my husbands 70th Birthday in 2019. James Martin was there and came over and chatted , he is so lovely and not a bit'starry', just a down to earth lad.

Glad to see that you were not let down Gary, James stepped up for the celebrities, good job mate.
Thank you Jason and he’s done a very good job
I've said this before but, you are the most honest, genuine and relaxed food reviewer I've come across on here.

Thank you, this was fantastic
I'm a fan of the compact menu concept. Especially when the offerings are changed on a weekly/monthly basis. It cuts down on inventory and food wastage and allows the kitchen staff the freedom to be creative and inventive.
Couldn't agree more, gives me confidence the kitchen can cope with room for capacity.
Well said

Ahhh what a lovely looking place with ambience for a special night. Great review and camera work. I wanted to dive into the ice cream and pudding. Love the humour re gambling and that spoon did need a special Gary telling off 😂❤
Nice one Gary, as ever. Everthing looked lovely and I'm sure it was, best wishes and thank you.
My sister raves about the tasting menu, went at the beginning of October for an anniversary and said it's the nicest food she's ever had.
I may have to try it
I've been waiting for a new review . It didn't disappoint .The roulette dealer needs a good feed .Good on you, Gary 👍
Thanks Gary. I had a really glum day at work today, but getting home and watching one of your videos has really cheered me up. Food looked fantastic! Glad you enjoyed.
No no, thank you!
That really was a treat, Gary! Another excellent review. Cheers, mate!
The ambience looks lovely.
Dessert looks heavenly 😋.
Another great review Gary ,you and the cameraman deserve a lot of credit,c'mon lets give it a go for 200k subscribers, all the best mate from the welshman in Georgia USA
Thank you Matthew
Like you, James Martin is one of my favourite chefs, loved the food and loved the atmosphere, one for a special day. Lovely review as always and very fair, thank you Gary ❤
At last. A celebrity chef who seems to care about his restaurants. As. Greano visited one and loved that too. Food looked excellent altho I'm with you, they do skimp on the portions at these places lol. As always Gary, loved the video and great seeing you again
Fantastic. I agree with you about the lamb though...it just needs one more slice. I love that the menu is limited. I like restaurants with limited menus as I often think they concentrate more on quality.
First comment from me. Been following since the 50k followers days. Doing Manc in a couple weeks, this and the Tapas are on my list. Did do the haddock and chips at the Hind Head in Bray on your recommendation, and completely agreed. Cheers.
My most favorite food reviewer!
That food all looked wonderful. Yes I’d prefer to have more on my plate for the main course but for top quality food you have to pay for it. Excellent review mate, thanks 😊
Great review Gary, as always, honest, down to earth and entertaining. Feeling a trip to Manchester coming on
Hi Gary. I often go to the Napoleons casino/restaurant in Bradford. £27.00 for 3 courses including a drink and a £5.00 bet in the casino. The food is good, not fantastic, but good. You can have extras if you want at an additional cost.most casinos have some sort of offer on the food to draw you in. It works for me as I like to play Blackjack it’s always good value and decent.
Seemed a bit pricey but I like James Martin as well, so would have paid it without complaint as it was obviously good. Thanks for the great review Gary and son 🥰
Been down to town many times living close by in littleborough but unfortunatly my good lady would never walk through a casino to get to a meal out ,i probably wouldnt either.Great review as always Gary . Just thought id say James Martin as an afterthought comes across a top fella ,great to watch on TV.
Interesting review Gary! I know that Greeno said that James Martin's "The Kitchen" in the New Forest was the best meal he'd ever reviewed! maybe give that one a go!!
Nice. Food looked amazing. This celebrity chef delivered...unlike so many others. Thanks Gary.
Another great job Gary x
Thank you Gary and Camera man.
Food looked great but main course lacking portion wise.
Dessert looked amazing.
Time to run that marathon my friend lol.
Excellent job as usual 😁😁👍👍
Thank you Kev and I think I’ll need to run two!
Great review. I see they do soft shell crab on the menu. Yum! Maybe try the Ambrette in Canterbury, Kent.
Wish i could taste it. It looks so yummy 😋 i think i would need bigger portions though
We ate here last Christmas and it was lovely. However, the price seems to have gone up for the festive meal.
Yes it seems a bit dear
Nothing like watching Gary after a long day at work! All the best mate keep smashing them milestones 🙌🏻
Legend! Thanks so much
Fast food joints are there to fill a gap , places like this are about having a special moment and enjoying the ambience , talking about the food on your plate and enjoying each others company.
It's not something to be rushed but savoured on more than one level.
I'm a lover of lamb but on this occasion reckon I'd have been all over that rabbit ( no Jessica jokes please) as it's a game food that's not often seen on menu's these days but still a clear favourite in our house.
So glad you enjoyed this as it's our kind of eating out preference , great review and a round of applause for James 👏
The restaurant was beautiful. A perfect place to enjoy a nice meal. The dessert looked so yummy!!
Great video love your reviews your always so kind ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!
Gary,
Superb restaurant!
Everything looked amazing mate.
James Martin is definitely on to a winner there!
Lovely review, 🎉🎉
Perfection!
@@TelThePower definitely our Terry xx 😘
Totally agree Terry! One of the few celebrity restaurants that seems to offer real quality. I think Gary was a bit surprised & very pleased by how good it all was. 💙
@@butterflydiva1
Thanks for getting in touch Maria, it was so much better than that Ramsey rubbish we have seen on the channel 😂
Take care as always 😘 xx
@@Erin.C.G
Hey Erin,
Yes, this was a fantastic celebrity restaurant, & showcased to perfection with our lovely Gary.
Take care & we'll catch up soon 💙
@TelThePower lol you can say that again..
( Don't lol )
Thank you and you have a lovely evening our lovely Terry xx 😘
I'd give it an 8 based on price vs portion sizes. Great that you found a TV Chef restaurant that does what it says on the tin. Another superb review, thanks Gary & Cameraman
Hi Gary,
James tried this concept of a restaurant within a casino in Leeds about 10 years ago, though his restaurant was excellent it folded when the casino folded.
I tried one of James Martins' restaurants in his hometown of Malton a few years back, and it was top draw!!!
Keep up the great reviews 👍
We know how good that bahji was when you gave us the signature move... Sat back with that big smile.. The good ol Gary this is amazing pose. 🤣😀
The food looked great, I agree with you though, the lamb was short a slice and the potato should be standard.
Another super honest review.
Great to see a celebrity chef deliver the goods. 👍👍👍
