I can't believe no one has reviewed Uncle Sam's yet! It's a bit of a classic American fast food…read moretakeaway right in the heart of Studentville, on Crwys Road (in Cathays/Roath). It has been going for years, and has managed to hold on to its fine reputation for decent quality and value for money throughout that time. It IS rather tiny, however, so it's possible you could easily walk past and miss it - but once you've been there once for food, you'll be a complete convert. Basically, they do American fast food - mainly burgers. It's not healthy, and it's not complicated, but what they do they do very well. The belly-busting All American 1/2 pound burger with fries and a tub of blue cheese sauce seems to go down well with meat-eaters, while there's a generously proportioned veggie option for people like me who don't eat beef. They also do chicken and pizza, but to be honest if you go to Uncle Sam's it should be for a burger, because that's what they do best. Excellent value for money!

I used to…read morelive in the States and as anyone who has been there or is from the U.S will tell you bigger is better! Why? It just is and Uncle Sam's certainly lives up to its American namesake. The restaurant is tiny and like other reviews have said it so easy to miss, so its beggars belief how such a small place can churn out such big and hearty portions of food. The price is ok but that is completely offset by taste of the food, as the juicy and flavourful chicken engulfs your taste buds. Of course chicken is not for everyone and they do have plenty of other dishes on the menu such as huge burgers (which have appeared to been given a real shout in other reviews) and pizza but honestly I personally think Uncle Sam's rules the roost!

I had a gorgeous lemon chicken dish from there the other day while also trying to steal a fair bit of my other-halves noodles. Bit disappointed that they don't do more variety in their set menu's because I'd really like to try out a whole lot more but i like that they do a special kids dish. Delivery time was reasonable, without the hour of ordering and i've also been in there to pick up food and love its modern, clean feel.

I LOVE CHINESE FOOD!!!…read more So when somebody tells me there is a Chinese restaurant that exists in Cardiff that I haven't tried I hot foot it over there pronto (I don't know the Chinese word for pronto). I have to say I wasn't disappointed with Wok2Go - they cook it freshly for you, pretty much in front of you, so there maybe a bit of a wait but isn't that the case with all Chinese restaurants. But unlike some Chinese restaurants - its tastes fresh and they don't add MSG. They also have a Wok2Go express which is a nice little system where you pick you meal with 3 easy options. You choose a favourite base (rice or noodles) choose a meat dish (or a veg dish) and then choose a flavour e.g black bean or sweet sour etc I'd recommend this place if you like Chinese food, if you don't then what's wrong with you?

I have memories of this branch going back to the age of 10, so thats a long time. Since then its…read moregone through a few changes but i'm pleased to say they still do children's parties. Come to think of it this may be the place where I developed my phobia of clowns! On the weekend its completely full of chavvy teen types so its not an ideal place to relax with your burger. There is quite a lot of seating and its been done out to look a bit more sophisticated but they will always struggle to keep it and clean and tidy when its busy. They have free wifi though if you want a lunch or breakfast stop where you can get up to date. I like that its open till 5am on the weekends. Perfect for post-drinking snacks. Food tastes the same, staff are the same, but defiantly not the worst I've been in.

This is what I consider to be the best fish and chip shop in the Cardiff bay area. It's all to easy…read moreto be drawn into one of the franchises that are around thinking that you will get top quality fish and chips. The reality is that this small shop tucked quietly around the corner from Mermaid Quay offers the crispiest of batter and the best cooked chips you will find in this part of town. You may well find yourself queuing up outside the door for service but if that doesn't tell you something, when you get inside the door and see how well kept the food preparation areas are, and then you are greeted by the friendly staff who are clearly rushed off of their feet, you will notice that the prices are very reasonable. This is a locally owned store rather than a large franchise and the quality of the freshly cooked fish really shows the difference. If you're in the bay and want this kind of take away food then you should definitely make the 2 minute journey away from the bay to give them a try.

Alright; here's the deal. In the interest of full disclosure and impartiality, I'm going to let you…read moreknow right out of the gate that if you're coming here for food on Chippy Lane, it should only be because Tony's and Dorothy's have burned down and all the food has been charred black. There's nothing inherently wrong with the Red Onion; the food in there is actually quite lovely, managing to come up a not-too-distant third to Tony's and Dorothy's first and second places. It does everything those two places do, and it does it very well. The staff are great folks, with banter skills honed on many nights spent talking to the drunken denizens of the city. All in all, it's a good place to get your food. On top of this though, they're just good people. A friend of mine lives across the street in the apartment buildings. Having just moved in there a few years back, he was annoyed to find that everything in the city centre closed at about 7pm (this was before Tesco and Sainsbury's opened on St. Mary's Street). He needed an onion for cooking, and so tried the takeaways down the bottom. He asked two of the places for one and they told him they couldn't part with one. He asked the Red Onion who happily gave him one, and refused to accept payment. It's not much, but it's things like that that win customers.

What I particularly liked was that none of the items came with the excess oil/ghee so common in takeaways. Instead, all the items were tasty, and beautifully spiced. I don't like very hot spices and found "two chillies" of heat was plenty (items with three chillies would have been too much). Our meal of poppadums, 2 naan, 16 mini samosas, 4 onion bhajia, a tray of chicken pakoras and 4 curries came to £59. It was plenty for 4 and made for two meals. I wish I had a takeaway of this quality closer to home.

This place is a step above your usual curry house. The…read morefood is fantastic and the ingredients used are obviously of the highest quality. It is a cold indian which means you order, they cook it, blast freeze it and give it to you to take home and cook whenever. That was a strange concept to me at first but now I just pick it up earlier and like being able to heat it up when I want. No more waiting for delivery drivers to turn up not knowing when you are going to eat. The staff are very friendly and the menu is ever changing. Every week they put on a special additional menu with lots of curries you have never heard off, each unique and worth trying. The only issue I have had is a couple of times I have had to wait longer than specified on the phone. One time I waited over an hour longer in the shop, although that was an exception. My tip is order early, it really is worth it because as I said - this one is in a different class. Jason
