The Pistachio - Birchington

First visit to Pistachio which won't be my last. Staff were really friendly and the food was great. We had the meat platter for three and it wasn't a problem when I asked to swap a portion of rice for a portion of chips. The platter was well presented and the meat was cooked perfectly. The chef came round to our table to say hello and check how we were, which was a nice touch. The wine we had was nice as well. We were too stuffed to try desert so can't comment on that. Another reviewer mentioned service charge being added to their bill. This didn't happen to us but I was happy to tip the server for being friendly and attentive.

This family-run restaurant is incredibly welcoming. The owners were very friendly to me and my two dogs. They guided me to a table and were extremely helpful in helping me choose a vegetarian meal that met my dietary requirements. They even prepared a fresh dish specifically for me and offered water for my dogs, which they greatly appreciated. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, complete with a real fire and soothing background music.

Delicious traditional pizza at an excellent price—definitely worth trying again!

I had a lovely evening with friends, and the food was fantastic. I've never had such tender buns and rice before. The service was excellent, and the staff were very helpful with menu recommendations.

Beautiful presented eating, attentive host. would like to have the menu further description/translation.
