Iâl Restaurant — Restaurant in Wales

Fantastic Food with a Side of Disappointment

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the trendy and stylish iâl Restaurant, and I must say that my overall experience was excellent, with just a minor hiccup in the cocktail department.

From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was inviting and full of energy. The service was truly exceptional, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who catered to our every need. Our server went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience, providing thoughtful recommendations and making us feel right at home.

The food was outstanding, each dish showcasing a perfect balance of flavors and textures. The attention to detail in the presentation was commendable, and the taste exceeded all our expectations. It was evident that the culinary team takes great pride in their work, which translated into a delightful gastronomic journey.

However, the one aspect that let down our otherwise wonderful experience was the cocktails. Specifically, the Mojito, which was very disappointing. Served in a glass that was mostly filled with soda water, the flavors of the rum, mint, and lime were diluted to the point of being barely discernible. The result was a lackluster beverage that did not live up to the high standards set by the rest of the meal.

Despite the disappointing cocktails, I would still rate iâl Restaurant at a solid 4 out of 5 stars. The exceptional food and service more than made up for the one shortcoming in the drink department. I would highly recommend visiting iâl for a delightful culinary experience, but be prepared to seek out alternative options for your...

I've wanted to try Coleg Ial for some time and WOW, it didn't disappoint! A beautiful venue with wonderful smiling faces on arrival. We've been looking to replace a favourite Sunday venue of ours which sadly had to close it's doors recently and I believe we've found it here. Wonderful Service, absolutely stunning food in a beautiful restaurant. These young chefs should be proud of themselves with food like this, absolutely outstanding! Roast beef cooked to perfection with stunning accompanying veg, the Cauliflower cheese is an absolute must on the side too. The chocolate pudding was stunning and I'm not even a pudding fan😊 A very special mention must also go to the lovely young gentleman who seated us, Ryan and 'Jojy Joseph' too, impeccable service with wonderful smiles...what a credit to any establishment. If you haven't tried it, you're truly missing out... can't wait to return 😊 £17.50 for 2 courses of this exemplary standard is outstanding!

Thank You very...

A true 'Hidden Gem'. Quality of food (generally) fantastic. Small range across all courses. The Humous starter was the best we have ever tasted and having their Home-Made crisps was unique.

2 of the 3 mains were wonderful, but sadly the remaining main (Fillet Steak) was not hot; somewhere between warm and tepid. The accompanying Coated onion ring and half tomato were also both cold. Looks as if all were previously cooked and forgotten to be warmed through. Such a shame.

Putting that disappointment to one side, the desserts were stunning.

We understand that the site is part of the University and is used by trainee chefs and servers. If so, the future looks good.

The manager looked after us well and the attention shown by the server was top quality.

We will...
