Thirteen

222, Ashley Road Parkstone, Poole

This was absolutely extraordinary. This is Thirteen, a relatively new restaurant that's open near us and is PHENOMENAL in every way. My parents and I checked this out last Thursday night (March 20th) to celebrate my 23rd birthday, and were absolutely blown away by it. I couldn't possibly have asked for a better birthday dinner. The whole experience was flawless from the incredible welcome on entry, to the service throughout, to the birthday card I received just before the dessert, signed by the whole team. That latter one especially blew me away - it was truly above and beyond, and deserves a special "thank you". Head chef Alex, along with his parents Elizabeth and Hem are absolute gems, and their passion was wonderful to see. But that goes for all the chefs, who took it in turns to introduce some of the courses, who I didn't quite catch the names of. It's rare you see such passion these days. And this doesn't even cover the immaculate, even spellbinding, 13 course degustation menu. To be honest I'm really struggling to name a favourite course, as they were all out of this world levels of brilliant, but I think the "herbs, cabbage", "mushroom, mushroom", and "brill, lardo" come out on top, roughly in that order as a top three. The photos attached are in the order we received them, so feel free to cross reference them to the menu. This was an absolutely brilliant experience that is fully deserving of a 5/5 rating on any review platform, and one that I really hope gets a Michelin Star soon - it could compete with (and probably exceed) any restaurant that already holds one any day. Absolutely tremendous, and I cannot wait to return.

Pizzeria Valona

12 High St, Poole

I have to say that this place won my heart, simply one of the best pizzerias in the town.
Excellent service, everyone was super smiling and made me and my friends feel at home, they were super friendly with our dog and everyone in the restaurant were happy to have her there.
The food is beyond words, the pizza made in the wood oven makes all the difference.
5 stars, I recommend trying this incredible place.

Makisu Sushi Bar Pan Asian Restaurant

4 Gillett Rd, Poole

This is some of the best Japanese food in Bournemouth! I have both eaten in and had take-away from this restaurant and both times have been excellent. I would especially recommend the salt and pepper squid, as it is the best I have ever had. It was so tender, fresh, and perfectly seasoned, absolutely delicious. Their sushi is also very good, they use lots of fresh fish, and each dish is beautifully presented. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be eating here again!

Can’t praise this restaurant and the staff enough. Had a terrific birthday lunch and were looked after very attentively by Eve mainly and Andy. Fabulous menu and we love the way the catch of the day is drawn on the large table menus. And if you don’t eat here, it’s worth a visit just to use the toilets and hear the spoof shipping forecast. Hilarious. We’ll be back.
