Main meal forgotten( no discount received but added service instead) every meal heavy and greasy, nothing like my first visit. Very disappointed, Will never return.
Great food and lovely interiors. Need one of these restaurants in London!
We had the Valentine menu, excellent. Good service as well.
Expecting good food and service, but expensive. The food was about the best chinese cuisine I have ever had, the service was excellent, and the bill was actually what you woukd expect in a good restaurant - great food, good value.
Amazing Lunch. Great cocktails, delicious food and good staff. What more could you want on a rainy windy Sunday Lunchtime. Thank you
Absolutley loved it Food and service was amazing We can't wait to come back
Went for Valentines evening. We didn't want the Valentines set menu and told the manager on arrival, we were then promptly put in an area not in the main restaurant in the corner where we were essentially forgotten about. Staff didn't know what was in the dishes, very slow service, got the starter wrong aftera long wait, the seafood main course in a 'clay pot' is a joke at £19, 4 prwns, 1 sliced up scallop and some unrecognisable bits of white fish, it dis arrive 15 mins after the other main we had that was warm at best when it arrived. They poured the wine when we asked them not too. Beware of service charge thatbis added to the bill automatically, tell them to remove it and decide for uourself whether to tip.Horrendous, never going back.
Excellent meal and service, only minor downside is that it can get a bit noisy when full
Great food and atmosphere, will go back there again soon!
Great food and attentive staff. A very enjoyable visit yet again...
Great atmosphere, good food, excellent service Will definitely go again
A double birthday celebration. It was a first time visit for me, my two daughters having visited a few times before and loved it. Really different. Excellent food and helpful staff. A really nice evening.
If you don’t like Chinese, try this because it will defiantly change your mind.
We had a lovely lunch from the set menu and the staff were all very friendly. Will definitely return.
Food was lovely - quality ingredients, well cooked. Service was a bit rough though. The main waitress made some weird comments about the vegan menu. I asked the sommelier some questions about the wine to which he responded that he didn't know because he didn't drink. A couple of the things we ordered fell between the gaps between different staff. All in all, they could do with getting a good maître d in to whip the team into shape. You expect better service for the prices they charge.
Amazing food and great service, couldn’t fault anything! Hope to be back soon
Had a lovely time and really great food. Will visit again!
Unbelievably delicious food, and it was endless! haha Beautiful restaurant nice atmosphere definitely be back
Good reception, service, food, presentation, drinks, ambience, but portions are not large. Hence prices are on the high side. Quite busy on Friday night.
Great night, food was really good, great menu. Excellent service!
More vegetarian dishes would be nice (ie containing soya replacements) Food & service were great though, lovely restaurant
We had a really good time. The staff were very welcoming from the moment we arrived. We had a great window table. The food and wine were delicious. We will definitely come back.
AN EXCELLENT EVENING OUT WITH THE FAMILY - GREAT SERVICE AND QUALITY CUISINE - MANY THANKS
Went early in the evening, so it was rather noisy with families with young children playing around us, but aside from that - a very helpful waitress and very good food.
It was a good meal but the service was not as good as the last time we visited
Very expensive and poor customer experience. Nice decor and good food. Definitely not recommended. Most reviews refer to this restaurant bring over priced and some have also experienced the rudeness of the management.
Great food and restaurant,, food is always fresh and friendly staff
Enjoyed great food and great service. Definitely worth a visit.
My favourite restaurant, good atmosphere, good food and good service
Great food and service highly recommended , soft shell crab was superb
the Spicy pork was dry and chewy, the setting is lovely but the whole evening was Hugely over priced. Unfortunately I would not come again for that reason. I didn’t leave full
Came for a birthday meal which was our second visit. The 1805 is by far the best Chinese restaurant that we have used the food is second to none and the setting is excellent, the staff are attentive but not intrusive. We will definitely be back.
lovely place to go for Chinese meal - as it was a Saturday night it got quite noisy after 8 pm. However, service and food were great.
Lovely fresh food, very tasty & delicious, great service surprised it wasn’t busy for a Thursday evening in early December. Only negative... it was a tad too expensive to go there other than for a special occasion. Don’t mind paying for good food but would like to be able to afford to go more often & think they would be busier if they slightly reduced their prices.
Really enjoyed our evening Good job my the whole team !!
Gooood foood - proper chinese - lovely place for a good price
Extremely friendly and attentive staff (who keep there distance until needed). Ordered the set meal for 2 - WOW, brilliant value for money. Would highly recommend visiting 1805. We will definitely return when in Bournemouth again.
We enjoyed our visit to 1805. The service was good and the food was excellent.
Had a fantastic meal great service perfection thank you for your service
Great atmosphere but very noisey. Food was delicious and plenty of it, however it was very slow service. We had to prompt staff with our empty drink glasses but they were all very busy. Great meal and drinks with friends. Will visit again.
This wonderful restaurant produces consistently delicious food. A regular favourite for the ladies who lunch.
Great food but we would have liked to have ordered three of the set meals for the four of us as there was far too much to eat and we left a lot.
The food was delicious as always and the service was faultless. Such lovely staff. Thank you for a wonderful evening.
Great cocktails. Wonderful food. Extremely pleasant waiting Staff. Lovely birthday evening Thank you
Nice modern Chinese restaurant with great food, just a little on the expensive side
Probably the very best Chinese food outside China and London.
Friendly staff, great cocktails, lovely food. Definitely a place for a treat though as on the pricey side!
Fabulas chinese food and great service..5 star!! wiil be back
Food and service is excellent but the restaurant design makes it incredibly noisy. The problem is that the the walls and floor are very hard flat surfaces which look great but reflect the sound back into the restaurant. There is a false ceiling which also adds a sort of echo effect to the noise.
Wow factor, lovely restaurant food and staff First class definitely recommend and will be back thank you
