Really delicious food and a creative menu. I can’t think of anywhere else where you get such quality for such a good price, 3 courses for £35/2 for £30. Would highly recommend.

Staff was very attentive and described each course. We got the seven course tasting set and was stuffed by the end. The courses had a range of flavors, from East Asian, to Indian, to Mexican, and were all delicious.

Tasty food with excellent service. Lovely relaxed vibe. Time past by quickly but never felt rushed.

This restaurant is absolutely stunning, and the food and service are even more impressive! It offers a luxurious experience at surprisingly affordable prices. We're definitely planning to return in the future.

Great place to eat and right in the centre of town. Taisteal offer both a tasting and an a la carte menu. So many delicious options to choose from which will bring me back for more. Service was quick and friendly. The food was amazing, lots of new flavour combinations.
I would recommend this restaurant and I'll be back.

I went to Taisteal last night and, once again, food and service were great! The steak tartare had an authentic delicious flavour with the crispy egg yolk and the chicken Kiev was also really good with a perfectly creamy sauce.

Delicious meal from beginning to end. Well seasoned starter of edamame followed by Thai tartare with crispy mushrooms and a main of baked cod. Beautiful presentation as well. The chefs know what they are doing. This is truly a dining pleasure and experience. Michelin quality!

Went to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful night. Originally booked a 5-course meal but wanted to try a 7-course one after looking at the reviews for the scallops. The staff was very accommodating and asked chefs about the availability for the 7-course meal. Glad that we changed to have the 7-course meal. The dishes had some Asian-touch and they worked great with European ingredients and dishes.

We have been multiple times and this was the best yet. The three course set menu started brilliantly (pea and jalapeño soup alongside prawn wontons), but the mains were even better (black olive gnocchi with heritage tomatoes and sole, tartlet, croquette with sauce vierge). Desserts were hazelnut crème brûlée and millionaires cake with malted ice cream.

Genuinely the best meal we’ve ever had. So reasonably priced for such an amazing tasting menu. Each course ranged from technically brilliant to excitingly delicious, and the whole menu was so well thought out. The waiting staff were helpful, friendly and helped make the evening what it was. Thank you.
