    My partner and I went to Soy for dinner on a Friday night. Staff were attentive and really friendly. Food was outstanding and the menu had a great selection and range of starters, mains and small bites to choose from! Food quality was outstanding and we both walked away thinking that the price 100% matched the portion, quality and taste of what we ordered. Can’t wait to dine here again.

    This was our first visit to Wagyuto. Although it's not far from our home, we were completely unaware of it, but luckily stumbled upon it while surfing the internet. And boy are we glad we did. We went there for a combined Valentine's Day/wedding anniversary celebration, and the restaurant exceeded expectations. Great food, brilliant attentive service, lovely ambience, and reasonably priced considering the very high quality. We're definitely going to become regulars.

    The ramen was amazing. As a person with food allergies it was great for me. I had the gluten free vegan ramen and it was delicious. My dining companion had the chicken and loved it. The staff were lovely.
