A superb meal! Everything about our evening was perfect. The food was divine, the setting relaxing and welcoming and the service attentive but not intrusive. It really was an anecdote to a rather disappointing stay in a local hotel! I would definitely recommend this place and hope it continues to go from strength to strength.

First visit, recommended by family. Not disappointed, beautiful setting, very good quality ingredients, few minor points - roast potatoes not crispy enough, leeks lacked flavour ('sauce') - everything else lovely.

If you want an unique dining experience, then this is the place for you. It is by far the best place to eat that I have found. The inside is very tastefully set out. The manager Tristan makes evryone feel welcome and special and all the staff are very friendly without being gushy. The same can be said for the owner Gwyn. The food is obviously prepared by an amazing chef who loves to cook. The food is all sourced locally and they have an amazing menu. The food is beautifully presented and delicious. Give Gardd Y Nos a try, I promise you that you won't be dissapointed.

We found this gem last Summer and it never disappoints, from the contemporary decor to the wonderful menu. We have been several times for lunch and evening meal, in a small group of 4 up to a party of 9.

The service is unhurried with a wide range of choice on the menu. I love the variety of dishes on offer sourced locally, and the fish dishes based on the catch of the day . The menu is lovingly put together with enough detail to tempt the palate. The staff are attentive and clearly want you to enjoy the experience. The food is beautifully served and cooked to perfection. I cannot praise this restaurant enough and will definitely go back again and again.

My boyfriend and I dined at Gardd y Nos for the first time on Valentine's Day and we absolutely loved it. Both of us appreciate fine dining and good quality service; both were in abundance. Every dish is obviously very carefully created and beautifully presented. As a vegetarian, I was pleased to see that the veggie options were not just the usual thoughtless dishes so often placed on menus. My boyfriend loved his rabbit confit and sirloin of beef, and we both thought our desserts were gorgeous. Service is excellent - restaurants nowadays either tend to rush diners through courses or train their staff to fuss their customers with overfriendliness, but here the staff were spot on. Incredibly, we paid less than £50 for a 3 course meal with coffee, 2 glasses of wine and a couple of other drinks. Anyone visiting the area should definitely find time to visit Gardd y Nos.

I ate at Gardd y Nos this evening with my mother. It was the third time under the current ownership. We have always been delighted by the food, service and general standard of the establishment.
In my opinion they have set out to meet a standard and have consistently met it.
The variety of food has improved while the quality has remained superb.
A goats cheese starter I tried for the first time tonight (complimented by a superb Californian Zinfandel) was worthy of an award! Everything we were served arrived looking like a work of art and had a combination of flavours to match!
The service from a well established staff is above reproach. No snooty waiters or supercilious attitudes, just friendly, enthusiastic, helpful and efficient service.
I couldn't manage a dessert but I tasted the banana and fig sponge with mango sorbet that my mother had and will try to leave room for it next time.
It goes without saying that I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who has the opportunity to try it.
