Fantastic meal out with family. Visited and had the lunch time menu, was excellent value. £15.95 for 3 courses. The lasagne I had for main was hands down the best lasagne I have ever had, cooked and seasoned to perfection. Brownies for dessert was heavenly. Adam who served us was outstanding, helpful, friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend visiting for lunch.

We came across this restaurant on Saturday early evening. It was busy but we were lucky to get a table. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Nice atmosphere and delicious food.

The food was good, although it could have been hotter. I do think it was overpriced. If I am paying £16 for a lasagne, I expect it to be exceptional. The staff were great, and the place itself was nice. Not sure I would go again, there are better places to eat in Merthyr.

🍽️ Review:
There is a very good reason why I say this is one of my favourites and that is because this place never disappoints, they always come up with new dishes to keep it exciting 👏
As you will expect we were absolutely stuffed by the time we finished our meals, as what you see is what you get and yes the meals really are that big. Most importantly though they taste as good as they look too!
The Tikka Naan was absolutely stacked with chicken tikka curry, this combined with the mint sauce was lush. The naan bread was lovely too although we did not eat much of it as we had to get through the mountain of meat 😂
The main attraction though was definitely the new Salt & Pepper Chilli Burger, this was just insane. This was a monster of a meal and Salt & Pepper chilli lovers dream. Not only do you get a giant burger but even extra salt and pepper strips too. Let's just say it was ridiculously tasty!
I honestly cannot recommend this place enough 👏

Absolutely beautiful restaurant. Clean and welcoming, welcomed by a polite young lady called Darcie who showed us to our seats. We were in a large group, we visited for a family birthday celebration and food was amazing (salt & pepper chicken WOW). But most of all the service by the staff was 5*. We were served mainly by a young lad called Rio, he couldnt do enough for us, so polite and efficient. Another lovely girl also served us called Beatriz and she was awesome also , checked everything and an excellent manner. Definitely will come back highly recommend visiting.

Absolutely lovely place and delightful staff. I didn't know what to expect in terms of the inside, but it had this antique chique vibe that worked so well within. All the chairs were different and it oozed character.
I had the halloumi fries, with Salt & pepper chilli chicken, my partner had prawns and bbq chicken. Food was stunning!
However...I do have some criticisms, and considered 4/5 stars. But went with 5/5 because I just feel it would be an in justice.
So:
- forks: they felt so cheap, and I could almost bend mine and my partners fork. I just feel as 'fine dining' it just needs some better forks. Sounds silly, but gave me this 'cheap' feelings.
- salt & pepper chilli chicken: umm okay, so it was super tasty, super lovely. However, it had a bbq back taste? I didn't taste the chilli, or anything but that kinda odd bbq taste. I wanted something with a little more of a kick. But, it was tasty, and even tho there is a critism, it doesn't take away from the taste.
- bbq chicken: it was quite dry, once again tasty but had a dryness to it.
I think due to the food being so tasty, regardless it can't warrant a lesser star.
Me and my partner felt both dishes needed a more drizzle of sauce as standard. So a sweet chilli sauce over the chips. And a bbq sauce over the chips for the bbq chicken. Kind of give the chios more flavour. The bbq chicken, needed to be covered in sauce more in general. But the chips need that complimentary sauce over them as part of the dish maybe?
Outside was beautiful, inside was gorgeous, staff incredibly polite.
Don't take my criticisms as anything but ideas, because everything was delicious.

We had a fantastic meal here tonight! Food was out of this world.. my steak cut like butter and was cooked to perfection! The staff made us feel like royalty, they couldn’t do enough for us… definitely worth a visit if you love good food! Thank you ‘The Mine’
If you have been here previously before and was left disappointed (I would of have the 1 ⭐️ before) but management have really turned the place around so please book back and try again!
