The Astor Grill in South Bucks

Very Average, very overpriced. Ordered the Meze, approx £26. They actually served jarred peppers with cheese in as part of the meze similar to the ones you can buy from Tesco. I only wish I had taken a photo as it beggars belief. Steak was again over priced and served on top of a grease proof piece of paper dand the Bernaise sauce lacked flavour, it was missing vinegar and tarragon, may as well call it egg sauce.Such a shame as the setting is amazing but would have been better to have eaten elsewhere and just enjoy the views from the bar. On the plus side the staff were excellent and very accommodating.

Extremely overpriced. The salmon carpaccio was 3 teaspoons sized and bland. Asparagus slightly better but no taste of truffle. The cod and peanut sauce also super bland and barely any coriander in a coriander salad. The only thing that was ok was the burger and service. Shame as it’s a lovely place in such a grand establishment.

Very disappointing and terrible valueWhile the staff were friendly and helpful and the venue wasn’t too bad though not warranting the prices charged here.The fish and chips at £ 26 per portion were so greasy that the paper they had served them on pretty much disintegrated from the excess fat. After fighting through the thick batter there was a tiny sliver of fish in the middle. We have had much better from local high street take always at a fraction of the price.The chateaubriand was reasonably pleasant, which was reassuring since it cost £85 for 2, though really, for the money, this was nothing special.The dessert was a farce. I was really looking forward to a caramelised banana, as described in the banana split but instead got a plain banana that had been but in half and scorched on the flat side. No sign of any caramelisation in site. The ice cream was just a shop bought vegan version and very lack lustre with some cheap glacé cherries on top. It couldn’t have been much worse.Shame that the food was such a let down here and we were very disappointed considering the high prices. We were even overcharged for an already overpriced cocktail, £28 instead of £24.I would highly recommend going elsewhere and avoiding here.

Me and the wife loved it very nice service and food. Prices were palatable also

A magical venue. Below average food. Bland starter salad. Found a long hair in the main course. Battered fish was like eating cotton wool. So disappointing.

What an lovely enjoyable day out for lunch . Staff were 5 star , really nice polite friendly and helpful and still smiled even though it was 31 degrees. Izzy was so nice and gave us great service , thank you. Your tacos shouldn't be on your main menu though , very tasty but small with nothing else. The chef and the staff made today. Will definitely be back

Excellent meal at the Astor Grill. We had Starters Salmon carpaccio and Thai salad and they were both delicious. Mains were fantastic too: lamb grill, cod roast and the burger. The chips were amazing. Service is the best! Attentive, polite and professional. Felt safe due to continuous cleaning and all measures put in place. Lovely meal to start getting back to normal life. Thank you.

We have been here for lunch as the meal was partially included in the Spa Day. We had arancini, a sharing platter, sole and hake. As a dessert the sticky date pudding. Very professional staff, delicious food and a pleasant experience. By reading other reviews, it is true that the waiting time has room for improvements. However, we were not in a rush, so we did not mind too much.

Great place with decent kitchen that can accommodate vegans too. Will bw comming back.

By far the only bad experience of the Hotel itself. We went to have lunch and asked for 2 Grilled lobsters with fries. Both of them half raw half cooked. Probably frozen and sadly it took almost one hour just to bring it. We asked for another one but the waiting AGAIN was just ridiculous, so we left. The manager thoughtfully tried to help us as he could but he cant cook, that's the kitchen job. 2stars for the restaurant, 5 stars for the front of the house Staff including the Host/manager
