The Park Grill - Wakefield

The service is great. Welcoming, friendly, personal. Nothing is too much trouble. The Sunday lunch was faultless. The warm salad and beef were good portions, cooked well, tasty and more than you need. Plenty of vegetables and a good wine list. And incredibly great value when you look at what you get for the same price elsewhere. The chef knows what he’s doing and the training is clearly very good.

We used this for venue for a surprise 70th Birthday celebration (28/01/2023) for 30 people. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent with Chris, Peter and all the staff being tremendously accommodating throughout. Though our numbers were relatively small compared to what they would normally deal with, Chris was happy to personalise our event and enabled us to have a lovely, intimate night. The food was excellent and our guests all commented on how they had enjoyed all their meals. The staff on the night were equally super (helpful, friendly and very professional).

Once again Chris, Pete and staff provided an excellent Christmas Dinner. Busy but staff worked hard and efficiently to keep things moving.

Where do I start? I organized a Xmas lunch for the NARPO members, with the assistance of the staff and chefs. We formulated a menu from the Xmas menu which I can honestly say was fantastic, from start to finish we were looked after. The choice of soup, pigeon salad, or scallops starter to Sea Bass, Beef, Turkey and veg. Option. To finish with Xmas pudding, cheese and biscuits, lemon tart or fruit. All presented very nice and full of flavour. A fantastic well done to all.

I haven't been to this restaurant in years, but the food and service used to be fantastic. Sadly, that is no longer the case. I should have realized this when the restaurant was nearly empty during peak hours last Sunday. The young and unprofessional waitress was nowhere to be found when we needed to pay the bill. She abruptly told us that we had no choice but to order two courses. The decor has also deteriorated, with plastic blinds, scruffy carpets, and unclean toilets. As for the food, the beef was overcooked, thinly sliced, and tough. The gravy was watery, and the vegetables were flavorless. It certainly did not seem like the former QE2 chef was cooking that day. I was embarrassed that I had recommended this restaurant to my friend, as it used to be so good.
