| I have to just say that I copied the menu and telephone number from another website. Mishmash did the research and deserves the credit for supplying the said information

| Hope it goes well, Leigh needs another "English" resturant. I thought the prices a little high, although as I SAID it was lovely food, cooked nice and certainly not the awful stuff seved cold in the Wetherspoons. The staff were all great too and very helpful.

| I went in August, 2 steaks, 2 sides, pudds and a couple of drinks £50. Well worth it.
They bring out the steaks on a slab to show you and talk you through the different cuts if you wish.
Best steak I have had for sure.

Cost us way more than that!
My mate and his missus went last month and paid almost 3 times that much.
Has it got dearer recently or did they get your bill wrong?!?

Can highly recommend this place been a couple of times can be pricey but not over the top, well worth it, you'll have a good night.

| Gaucho Grill in Manchester is the best steakhouse I've ever been to - but with a price tag to match!
Went to Rowlands with Mrs Whoateallthetries last night and our first impressions were good. Very tastefully decorated and clean. Only 1 table eating when we got there but got pretty busy a bit later on. The light is a bit bright though - they could do with a dimmer switch to create a bit more "atmosphere". Also, a bit cold in there.
Starters were excellent and the steaks were good - nothing you couldn't rustle up yourself at home though to be honest and the chips were a bit too greasy for our liking. 1 piece of advice though - the chef seems to overcook the meat slightly so if you want yours done medium then ask for medium rare - if you want medium rare ask for rare. We asked for medium and both steaks came at least medium-well done. We didn't make a fuss of it but I overheard people on 2 of the other tables complaining about the same thing. Desserts and coffees were nice though.
However, the biggest let-down has to be the price. We spent £40 a head which was too much in my opinion. The drinks prices are definitely too high. I don't mind paying £3 for a bottle of lager as that seems to be par for the course in a restaurant these days but £15 for a bottle of Jacobs Creek Shiraz that I can pick up for £5 to £6 in Tescos?! I don't mind paying £15+ for a bottle of wine but it has to be something a bit more special for that price (especially when you think that when you buy in bulk at wholesale I bet you could get Jacobs Creek for about £3 to £4 a bottle).
Overall, it was good but nowt special. At £40 per head I would expect a bit more of a restaurant "experience" with a fantastic atmosphere and service to match. A welcome addition to the limited number of restaurants in Leigh though (which isn't difficult).

| Sounds like its worth a visit, though I'm not sure I'll be paying £15 for a bottle of £4 plonk.

It was right. We had a voucher for £70 and we have £20 left. But as said, highly recommended.

I did a mini study of pubs around us that have not gone to the dogs and the things they all had in common were (a) a decent selection of beers and wines (b) a warm covered place for the (very hard done to) smoking people (c) food. I would have to say that the warm dry place where people could have a fag is probably the most important feature. If you dont move with the times your going to be left behind.

how about people move with the times and quit smoking? who wants that awful smell whilst they are eating? and if people cant last a couple of hours without a cig they really need to seek medical help
