For me, Slice is the best restaurant in this part of Wales
This was my third time at Slice and it was amazing as always. The tasting menu was incredible - the highlights were the cod with langoustines, barbequed beef and the chocolate marquise! The wine pairing and the service were excellent too - thank you so much! A small note: the dining room tends to get quite loud and it would really benefit from some acoustic panels.
A flawless diamond in the rough! Slice is so affordable with such imaginative and DELICIOUS dishes, with a cosy dining area, and the waitress so friendly and knowledgeable. I sometimes wish they could relocate to a larger premises, making the most of the beautiful views of Swansea, but I guess they would risk impacting on the quality of the food and service and of course the price. Every single morsel of food for my Mum and I's lunch yesterday was perfectly executed. 2 tasting menu's, a bottle of wine, coffee and petit fours came to just £166. A huge difference to being absolutely rinsed of nearly £400 at The Hand and flowers a few months back for way less food and way less quality. (Grrrrr. That still gripes me) Keep up the incredible work, Slice!! We.will.be.back!!
What a great experience! When you walk in you're warmly greeted by the two chefs who are also the owners.
I went for the 3 course meal with 5 people. The staff are very friendly.
So for the food. When you arrive there are two types of butter presented to you. And when you've ordered they will bring you freshly baked bread which smells amazing! It's a nice appetiser.
For the amuse-bouche we were given Rabbit pasty with a cauliflower dish. They paired very well together. The cauliflower thing helped to fight the gamey taste of the rabbit.
For starters I had the Scallops with chicken wings and texture of salsify. Scallops were Cooked beautifully, they weren't rubbery and tasted great. The chicken wing they gave helped to balance the seafood taste and was very soft. To complete the dish the salsify is needed to bring the different textures form the soft parts to the crunchy roasted ones. Amazing
The main I had was the poussin and my goodness it was moist, juicy, tender and full of flavour! The barley and sauce were great with it. This was definitely the highlight
For dessert the soufle was nicely risen, it was soft and sweet and just enough to satisfy. My only complaint is that I wish I had more ice cream.
Overall a great dining experience that I would love to come visit for different menus.
Other food that I got to try was the braised cheek and filet steak which were all nice and tender.
