"Firstly food is well made and nice flavour albeit slightly bland, Starters where good and we all enjoyed our starters. Service is good although a little rough round the edges (wine pouring). The gripes: the wine, a San Antonio Pino Grigio (google it) for £28. Fine with the price if the wine is of a good .quality but this was rubbish, roughly £5 bottle on vivino with a very low review score. If your going to profiteer then at least get a palatable cheap wine! Fish Pie, small. square of fish with a piped mash on top and a moat of small flakes of salmon in a sauce. The fish only covered 50 to 60% of the pie square and was then back filled with mash felt cheated and robbed at £24. Needless to say we will not be back."

"The cocktails are delicious they will make you one of your choice that isn't on the menu. The only minor complaint we have is that they don't have any cocktail cherries haven't for our last 2 visits a Manhattan traditionally comes with a cherry. The staff are pleasant, the ambience improves with more people. Bit cold early on."

"In Llandudno again for a little break so thought we'd try Romeo out, as we've tried most of the others. Booked in for 5.30pm and told 2 hours to dine which is reasonable. We were shown to a fantastic bay window table with a nice view of the streets, promptly given drinks food menu's by our very efficient server. Drink prices were about what we'd expect in most restaurants and were good, Peroni beer wine for us and San-Peligrino for the kids. Wine was good, not supermarket rubbish as found in most places. Our starters, Bread with olive oil, Balsamic vinegar and Antipasti misto were honestly brilliant! Mains were meat balls, Bistecca Al Gorgonzola, and 2 Margarita pizza's, all of which were very good and served nice and hot. You have a choice of veg potatoes or chips salad with the steak. I wanted chips and veg and had to pay for the veg as a side order. Most places I've dined at offer a choice of potato with either salad or veg. The only fault all night though so minor. Our daughters had pudding, Fudge cake and a massive ice-cream sundae with fresh berries again both very impressive. All in all a fantastic meal with excellent drinks and a brilliant service. I'd recommend booking as the place was full within a hour of us being seated! We will certainly head back when in Llandudno again."

"After attending ABBA Mania at Venue Cymru, we decided to book a table at this restaurant. They kindly stayed open for us, and we were not disappointed. The service was excellent, and the food was the best we have had in a Chinese restaurant. It was fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. The prices were very affordable compared to our usual dining spots. Our meal, including 2 starters, 2 mains, fried rice, and a bottle of wine, cost only £61. We highly recommend giving this place a try! We give it 5 stars for the service and quality."

"As you drive into the car park at Signatures, you may wonder if you’ve made the right choice for dinner. Yes, it’s a restaurant that’s at a “holiday home resort” – and that’s a posh caravan park to you and me. But, fear not, we’d been here before and know that it punches above its weight, making it one of the better restaurants along the coast. The menu is well rooted in “Modern British” food which means it occasionally makes a leap away from the comfort of Northern Europe. As in a starter of king prawns, dressed in a quite pokey satay sauce, served with a crispy noodle salad. It worked. As did a lobster bisque which had the richness of the one you get in jars at Waitrose but enhanced with small bits of lobster. It’s accompanied with a small slice of toast, topped with mayo, crab and prawns. Sirloin steak was accurately cooked as requested but could have done with a bit of seasoning. It came with classic accompaniments – nicely cooked “fat chips”, grilled cherry tomatoes and a field mushroom.. “Trio of lamb” was a good representation of the modern classic of “meat three ways”. A couple of slices of perfectly pink fillet. Some long cooked shoulder. And breast, also long cooked, then pressed, breaded and fried to crisp. That came with “Palouise” potatoes – Google doesn’t find that term but it seemed be a boiled potato topped with buttery gloop (no, I wasn’t a fan). But it’s more than made up for by Savoy cabbage, roasted carrot and a lovely rich sauce. We often pass on dessert but not this time. Two classics on the menu, Firstly sticky toffee pudding – it’s rare to see a menu these days which doesn’t have it on. And, most times, it’s not worth the calories. But, here, it’s a delicious light sponge, pretty much perfect butterscotch sauce and vanilla ice cream, Homemade “Arctic Roll” and jelly will whisk a generation of Britons back to their childhood. Ice cream surrounded by sponge was fine. The fruit jelly was excellent – really fruity rather than just generic “sweet”. Good coffee to finish."
