We had the taster menu which is fine dining cuisine, it was absolutely superb, as was the service. I would highly recommend the Purple Poppadom taster menu for a special occasion.

Food excellent, fish and beef courses were outstanding! staff friendly and welcoming. We had the set Valentine’s Day set menu and Service fell apart in the middle of the meal with long wait between courses, and we noticed that customers who came in after us were being served before us. Notwithstanding that it was an enjoyable evening, we will definitely be back!

First time at The Purple Poppadom and we were a group of four. Had a wonderful evening and loved the food, ambience and excellent service. Also, it really was creative. Had never had Indian white wine before and it was really good! Top choice and would go back again if in the same neck of the woods (which is out of Cardiff city centre and I would suggest getting a taxi there and back).

Amazing! Would definitely recommend! Food was delicious. My father went on a cooking course with the chef not so long ago, so we thought we would try out the restaurant for my mothers birthday. It was absolutely amazing!
