Reform Restaurant — Restaurant in Lincoln

Ruined Valentine Evening... Visiting Lincoln, my wife and I booked this restaurant looking for something special. Reviews and menu and interaction beforehand all pointed to a good choice. The sharing starter was not as expected nor as described on the menu. "Cheese sharing sharer with bread rolls celery and apple". It came with the celery and apple (which had gone brown) and Le Rustique camembert (

Went for mother's day Sunday lunch. Food was mostly inedible. Starters were OK, looked better than they tasted, rarebit was barely warm let alone toasted, didn't taste very nice. Arancini was lacking in flavour and missing main ingredient of sun-dried tomato. Daughter's halloumi had been overcooked, so hard and couldn't eat, on dry bun with just a limp lettuce leaf. Chips on kids meals covered in so much salt they couldn't be eaten. Vegetarian squash wellington wasn't cooked properly as pastry was undercooked and soggy, roast potatoes tasted reheated and had been fried as full of oil and grey and tasted vile. Carrots were large and dry roasted so tasteless. 2 measley parsnips and 3 carrots as our side of veg for sharing on top of soggy leeks. Red cabbage didn't taste nice either. Picked at it all but couldn't eat it so left it and left hungry. We did mention this when paying bill but still had to pay £35 on top of the deposit we had to pay.

Food came and one was tomato soup and not pea. I asked to see the manager and I explained we had pre ordered and her reply "why did you? As if it was somehow our fault. I then explained about the soup being wrong and she said " did you enjoy it and the reply was well yes. "Well that's fine then, abruptly" and walked off We were offered extra gravy that never came even after the secind time of asking. Food was ok but the Manger and her abrupt attitude put a dampener on the experience. It was a special occasion in such a lovely setting and it could have so easily have been a far better experience had the manger been apologetic and understanding. We used to eat here a lot but food deteriated so havn't tried it for several years. We won't be...
