Mon Ami Brasserie — Restaurant in Borough of Swale

Two weeks ago I visited this place with my family for first time. It wasn't our first choice but the other place was full. So we saw this restaurant ,It seemed a peaceful and welcoming place. Unfortunately it wasn't! It was our anniversary, and we wanted to go for a lunch with our child, however this was the worse day ! The place was dirty , our table was dirty when we sit , we cleaned it ourselves. There was a cigarette butt in the ashtray. Although this restaurant is child friendly, I don't recommend to go there with your child. The toilets are disgusting. They have a nappy changing place , however the place was very dirty ,and there wasn't a paper !You need to supply a paper and bin for nappies, please! These things are essentials. There's also and a play room for the kids.BUT I cannot call this play room it was disgusting,the place was dirty and the toys were very,very dirty. I do not leave my dog there to play ,not my child!! Please ,please clean it! So the cleanliness is totally missing! The food , what to tell about the food , we order a pasta for the child it wasn't good. So we decided to order pancakes for him and they wasn't good either. They were like a sole. The waiter obviously doesn't understand English, because he messed up our order. The only thing good in this restaurant was the wine and thank god we order one bottle, that helped us to stay there. The other good thing, was the waitress, smiley and the only adequate...

We regularly visit Ephesus to enjoy a decent quiet meal with and without the kids. The owners are a lovely couple who make you feel so welcome and not rushed like other local restaurants. The food has always been to a real high standard so we always recommend dining here. We have booked here a couple of times for birthdays with a larger group and never had any complaints and my family can be quiet fussy. This year I decided to book for Christmas Day dinner for 24 of us. It can be a concern as you want everything to go perfect and with everyone liking there dinner cooked differently I didn’t want anyone to wish they hadn’t joined us as a couple of the family members were unsure on coming as they like their Christmas dinner at home their way, BUT it could not have been any better. With Christmas crackers on the tables and plenty of options for starters, main and desert for the 3 course meal. Some chose the traditional Turkey roast, some had sirloin steak, mixed grill and some had vegetable moussaka. All cooked perfectly. I don’t remember anyone leaving any of there meals (maybe the kids due to the generous size portions). IT WAS AMAZING. Thank you so much for a wonderful...

As a local sittingbourne resident I am always looking for new places to eat, especially to support small businesses.

It was my first time at The Bourne Kitchen for lunch today, but unfortunately I don’t think I will be returning again. My order was taken very quickly (not a complicated one) and drinks bought over straight after. After 30 minutes of being sat there a member of staff then came over to inform us there had been confusion in the kitchen (not sure how when order was so basic) and could he please take our order again.

We informed him we didn’t have long left on the car parking and that we would rather just pay for drinks and leave. He insisted that our food would be over within the next few minutes and was extremely apologetic for the wait.

After a further 10 minutes of waiting we decided to leave as we could see other tables being given their orders and ours was still no where to be seen. They were very apologetic and our drink was free of charge however when you only get a short lunch break it is aggravating and doesn’t leave me wanting to come back as first...
