    Our waiter was not very engaging and spent as little time as possible at our table, in fact we had experience of 2 other waiters and they also seemed distracted and unfocused. The restaurant is one of our favourites in Oxford city centre and 'service and hospitality' is such an important part of that, but it was lacking this Sunday lunch. My wife and I ordered Roast beef with all the trimmings but when the plate arrived there was no Yorkshire Pudding (which we'd seen on other tables, it was a very large one), the waiter said nothing and was about to walk away when I asked it's whereabouts. He said he'd check with the kitchen and after a while came back to say they had sold out, at which point I suggested it might have been a good idea to tell us in advance, he agreed but said the kitchen did not let them know...although this was the same waiter who'd carried a plate to us with a very large Yorkshire pudding missing. We still enjoyed a very well cooked Sunday lunch with perfectly pink beef and everything on the plate was cooked well. They offered some free dessert which we declined, but they did remove the first round of drinks. Hospitality training needed overall.

    Thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed the Sunday lunch, however I'm disappointed to hear that the service did not meet our usual high standards. It should have been communicated to you in timely manner that we can't offer Yorkshire pudding at that time, and it should have been acknowledged when your plates were delivered, so please kindly accept my sincere apologies. We have taken your feedback about the service onboard, and we have discussed it with the team. I do hope that this will not stop you from visiting us again. We hope we can welcome you back soon. Kind Regards, Undine, Restaurant Manager

    Chicken curry poor, ravioli cold. Side didn't come and had to be requested again. Service poor, plates banged on table, waiter knocked over bottle and banged into guests.
    Quod Restaurant & BarResponded 6 days ago
    Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you found our chicken curry and ravioli to be poor quality. We are always happy to exchange any dish if its not up to our usual high standards upon request. I would also like to apologize for the service that you received on your visit. Your feedback has been addressed with our teams to ensure it doesn't happen again and we do hope you will give us another try in the near future. Kind Regards, Undine, Restaurant Manager
