A meal with family, for a special little ladies Birthday. But the topic of conversation kept coming back to Gishwhes, which I must say, is one of the best things I have ever accomplished. having a great time doing it and is a must for anyone who wants a lot of excitement, madness, creativity and sheer lunacy in their lives. I will be back both at the restaurant and GISHWHES

As usual, had a great meal and great wine. The staff are well mannered and attentive without being intrusive. They also know the menu well and are not afraid to offer suggestions if you are at a loss what to order. This is my go to restaurant when I can't be bothered cooking.

Reet, now I know I have written a review for here before, but after a visit tonight with the wife again, I felt like I had to come back on here and give it another review. I wasn't sure how I could beat my last trip there, or the 5000 trips before it, but tonight has been a blast... Let me paint you a picture (with my words of course).. As its my other half's birthday tomorrow, a few days ago I got a special offer through the post for a huge 25% off our bill, and a free bottle of house wine, clearly to encourage me to spend the her birthday there and reward me for my previous custom - but as its one of our favorite restaurants - lets just say we don't need much convincing! So we pulled up at about 5pm on a gorgeous Friday evening (tonight!) only to see the car park packed and wondered would we get seated - we goes in, and bless the girls that seated us, actually thought about where we were going to be sitting, and popped us on a table away from the other families in there with children (not that I have anything against kids at all!), but she recognized we were a couple having a meal together - so thoughtful and showed she thought about it! We sat on a table that wasn't on top of other ones and got down to ordering our food - oh and getting our complimentary bottle of wine - deeeelish!! Hmmmm, droool, the food... Chicken livers for the wife and duck spring rolls for me to start - crispy rolls, filled with duck and on an amazing sweet chilli sauce, she had livers that were meaty, cooked to perfection and almost melt in the mouth - in fact I am drooling AGAIN thinking about it now! Mains were fishcake for me, and slow roasted lamb with some ribboned pasta that has a name but I cant remember or spell it - anyway it was GAWGUS - meaty lamb, no fat, pasta cooked to perfection - oh my word I could go on but wont... Cos I will end up soaking the laptop... Service wise, very attentive, talking to us whilst taking our order but certainly not intrusive at all, knew there was a birthday when I had handed over the voucher for the free wine - I'll do anything for a free wine! - and took a real interest, asking whose birthday it was and wishing her a good un! I though this in itself was lovely but imagine my surprise when at the end of the meal the staff brought out an ice cream with a giant sparkler in it and sang Happy Birthday for her - aw it was a lovely touch and to be honest really made our night... I love this place and although people find it slightly more expensive, I don't, and I'm certainly not one to spend money without thinking about it. Its a complete you get more than what you pay for place, and for an evening meal like this I would have paid double - definitely a place to go!

I was introduced to the wonders of Salute by some friends one Saturday night and I've got to say that I was blown away, from the minute that you walk in the door you are made to feel like a friend. The layout is spacious and relaxing, the food........what can I say but the best god damned food that I have had for a long time. The head chef has definitely got this right, great menu well balanced and put together, we have visited a number of times now and are hoping to get in for Xmas lunch. All I can say is next time you are in Rothwell look out for Salute and pay them a visit I can assure you that you will not be disappointed.
