Even though it was midweek the place was packed full so is obviously a hit with the locals. The menu is typically french (or how the british see french cuisiine) at least and there is plenty to choose from. We all ordered something different; pork normande, beef bouruignon, chicken and chorizo linguine and chicken supreme...and to my delight my party were all sharers and easily full so i got to try them all. The quantity is plentiful and the quality of all the dishes superb.Its an absolute little gem of a restaurant and very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend this restaurtant to anyone.

Secondly because of the structure being so poor, I found it extremely hard to eat, having resulted to the knife and fork at one stage, showing how poor quality the burger was. I wasn't too impressed with the actual flavour of the pork burger- didn't scream out at me for flavour, considering the cost was a quite a huge disappointment. Overall cost of the burger was In the region of £12-13.00 so very expensive. Like I said quality wasn't there and taste was average. Too much sauce, with burnt bread. However, the pros are great atmosphere, friendly staff, and clean. Cons: expensive, over priced with low quality meat and too much sauce. Burnt bread and structure not there. Burger: pulled pork BBQ burger. Overall ratings: a bitter 4.5/10

Beans, fresh tomato, 2 slices of toast, bacon was a bit anaemic and possibly boiled not grilled/ fried? Sausages were ok and the potatoes- not really sure what that yellow curry looking sauce was, a bit salty but not too offensive! Probably would go without next time! A good experience, still as loud in the morning as it is lunch and dinner. Staff are lovely and do a great job!

Seriosuly, though the decor is tacky, but so tacky it is cool. Think lots of black furniture and red, and tasteless patterns. It is so ridiculous it is cool. I liked it, anyway. As for the food, well...the menu is enormous, both in size and content. As it was only lunchtime when we visited (August 2010) we refrained from the enormous feasts and diverted away from something called Onion Loaf (it appears to be onion rings, but loaf-style). We opted to share a platter of ribs and side dishes. The ribs were great. Not necessarily the best I have ever had, but still good. The sides were ok - I would like my fries to be thinner and crispier. The service was excellent though and I found our waiter to be super-friendly. But the best part was the chocolate milkshake, the only wish with that was that it was too small! If you are on your way to Lincoln definitely stop by Damon's, if only for the experience.

When pre-booking for a table of two, we realised that we weren't going to be able to make our…read morereservation time. So ringing to rearrange always makes me a little nervous (I hate being a pain in the bum). But the conversation I had with the Harts representative was so reassuring that I immediately felt comfortable with my new booking. We were also staying at the hotel that weekend (which I will also review) and had a pre-dinner drink in the bar (which again was fantastic) and was a perfect start to the evening. Arriving at the restaurant (if I'm completely honest) I was a little disappointed with the décor. It reminds me very much of a fine dining establishment in America... which I personally think is quite an old fashioned take on being "modern". But none of that matters when you receive the service and the standard of food that we received that evening. I started with the tuna cerviche. It was garnished well with coriander making the dish light and refreshing. The tuna was absolutely delicious and sometimes I avoid it because it can have a jelly-like texture which I don't enjoy at all. But this was perfect. I then opted for a sirloin main course, and my, oh my, it was one of the tastiest pieces of meat I've ever eaten (and I do love a steak). It was cooked to perfection and exactly as I'd asked for it. Juicy, tender meat served with thrice cooked chips, roasted veggies and a sauce that was sweet and rich. The sauce was actually so yummy that I asked for more so I could dip my chips in it (you can take the girl out of Stoke, but you can't take Stoke out of the girl). We then had a melt in the middle chocolate fondant, with pistachio ice cream. Now this was where the service could have gone terribly, but it didn't. We ordered two desserts and the waiter had misheard us. When one dessert arrived with two spoons, the waiter immediately came to us and apologised profusely. Now I was already stuffed at this point and was ready to cancel the dessert anyway, but the manager then arrived to explain that the dessert was on it's way and would not be added to the bill along with two complimentary glasses of champagne. Now that is service. We were made to feel welcome and looked after in a professional yet friendly way. The little stumble at the end of the meal could have been a disaster in some establishments, but at Harts it just proved that everything is done with grace and expertise. Harts will certainly have my heart for a while.

Hart's is one of the best restaurants I have been to in Nottingham: both in times of service and…read morequality of food. We went there shortly after Christmas in a big family group. The restaurant wasn't super busy, but the ambiance was comfortable and despite the fact that we were probably much louder than any other table there it didn't feel like we were disturbing the peace the way it sometimes does in nice restaurants. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. Our drinks orders were taken immediately and the service was attentive but not over-bearing. My brother's girlfriend is vegetarian which usually means she has the option of only 1 or 2 dishes on the menu, but Hart's had a separate vegetarian menu they brought for her which had about 10 dishes on it- again a sign of the excellent service. It sucks when vegetarians are treated like second-class citizens and Hart's was quite the opposite. The food itself was excellent. I ordered the game terrine followed by the sea bream from the set menu (they had no problem with my mixing and matching, which is always nice). Both were delicious. I also tasted the mushroom fricassee starter which was great, and the venison for main course which was truly delicious. The only downside was that they had run out of 2 dishes - I assume because it was right after Christmas and they weren't expecting a busy night. Definitely a disappointment, however, when we mentioned that we were really disappointed that there was no calve's liver left because the person who had wanted it had never tried it before, they actually brought out a small taste of the dish for him to try - in addition to his main course and at no charge. Again, another sign of the excellent service. All in all, a great experience and if you want to have a nice dinner with great service, I can recommend no place more highly than Hart's.
