Going out for a meal tomorrow...we've done Persian, and dodgy chinese chicken feet but this time it's my turn to choose a restaurant on this wonderful road with too many to choose from?
Any great suggestions?

Martini's... See the thread in the Going out in Sheffield board for the reason why :)

It's an Italian Restaurant by the way, well worth the time to visit, cheap prices, excellent food, top class service and you can even see into the Kitchen to see your food being prepared.

Did you get your dodgy chicken feet from Dim Sum by any chance?

I love Dim Sum. It's my favourite restaurant on London Road. The won ton soup is brilliant.

You'd never catch me eating chicken feet though. You ever seen what chickens walk around in all day long. And how is there anything other than bones in a chicken's foot. Why would I eat bones...? The whelks in satay sauce were about as far as I'd go. Watch out for 'Steamed manifold' too - sounds romantic, full of eastern promise yeah? It's tripe. Chinese tripe. Yuk.

Zeugma is good but you'll need to book.

We did! I'm sure it is a wonderful place but I think we were a little over-adventurous with the ordering!

What type of food is it?

Froggies. Top nosh. Not been for a while but never disappoints.

B!oody hell I'm losing count of how many times I've mentioned the place but Siam Inter Thai restaurant is top drawer...went again friday night and was impressed yet again... top food, friendly, reasonably priced, so my vote goes for there!

If your not after curry/noodles/rice then I wouldn't particuarly recommend ANY of the Italians but the Froggy's Bistro is very good, more expensive than a curry obviously but the choice/standard of the food and atmosphere is worth the moola :)

As Mrs Fantomas so often says: Dim Sum - Yum Yum!

So either there or Jabu if there's not a huge party of you for some Chinese steamboat cooking action.

Kumquat Mae. (Technically on Abbeydale Road).

After Friday's forum meet at Martini's, I would highly recommend it. :thumbsup:

Have you tried Kumquat Mae?

I went to Marmaris (Turkish restaurant) last week and it was excellent. The menu is a bit heavy on the meat, but there was at least one vegetarian option, though only a couple of desserts. Can't fault the service though.

Zeugma - turkish. V V nice. Lots of veggie and meat options..

Open BBQ cooking amongst other things..

Mod Note: Threads Merged

No-one's mentioned Wasaabi Saabi yet...

It's a very nice japanese place - a little on the pricy side though...

mmm.... saki & sushi :D

Some fab sounding places...mouth watering already and we're not going till 8 tonight! Really could do a Thai if it is nice (I love Bahn nai in Broomhill and haven't found any to rival it yet!) Is it on London Road itself? Either that or Turkish sounds good, I like the heavy on the meat idea!

Is it Chinese? Think I fancy another type of cuisine after our shock chicken feet chinese incident!

Wasabi is great I agree, though I've only ever been to the Teppanyaki side, very very impressed!

It was the open cooking that decided it for us! Have booked a table will let you know how much we enjoy it!

No it's a vegetarian restaurant, a top quality one at that.

Siam Inter Thai is near Steers Beers and the PO on London Road, a stones throw from Wassabi

i know its not london road but whats cafe guru like ?

It's vegetarian..... On Tuesdays it is three courses for a tenner.

I'd vote froggies and dim sum

the turkish restaurant was good until some idiot fire bombed it...

Which resturant was this, Marnaris or Zeguma?

I love this restaurant - great service, fab food. We went on a Sunday evening and it had a nice chilled atmosphere.

i know its not london road but whats cafe guru like ?I thought this was a little up itself when I went a kind of trendy Indian. The food was okay but the service was appalling. The waiters seemed to beleive they were there to look good rather than serve us :huh:

we didnt go in the end it looked a little too posh and was very brightly lit for tea after work so went to que tal? it was ok apart from over friendly waiter - monday is'nt a good night to go and eat in town everywhere is dead think we should have gone down london road at least theres some life down there

I know now, as I've just come back- just down the road from Zeugummy (?) at 140 London Road. It was scrummy!:P

Meaks, your link doesn't work, it says "invalid thread", perhaps you need to tell JoeP about that.

I like that Vietnamese place; dont remember the name

Is that Pho68? I'm looking forward to trying there for a friend's birthday. The menu looks great so good reviews will only make me salivate more!

try Zeugeuma in london road. It;s a turkish restaurant and totally recommended.

Again, definitely Zeugma. Lovely sized portions, freshly cooked food on an open barbecue - you can see it being cooked right from your table.

Definitely go for Pho 68! It's Vietnamese Cuisine with some chinese malaysian thrown in (to my VERY pleasant surprise!)

Look for specials on the first 1-2 pages of menu....duck and preserved veg soup noodles, or if you want summat dry...vietnamese BBQ pork with vermicelli! Try their spring rolls as well...not the fried variety!

The prices are really good, and their food is so much more superior to the greasy icky stodgy noodle inn stuff! (Although what really turned me off Noodle Inn was the rude staff).

Where's the best 'steak' place in Sheffield?

Wasabisabi and Jabu get my vote. Both for the experience as well as the excellent fresh food.
