Had the most wonderful afternoon celebrating my birthday here. Despite the fact that our table grew in size (almost double!) the team couldn’t have been more accommodating in moving us from the restaurant to the bar area. The food arrived bang on time, and was plentiful. Everything was perfectly cooked, seasoned, piping hot and absolutely delicious! All of my guests commented that it was truly exceptional food with service & ambience to match. Huge thanks to all of the team for a wonderful afternoon & evening. Keep doing what you do - you do it brilliantly!

Food, service and atmosphere are all sensational. We had Sunday lunch and it was fabulous. Give me 14 of them. Every bit of the dish was just perfect. I'd say the lamb was better than the pork. The deserts were also great. Price is a bit high but no complaints because of how great everything was.

This was our second visit to Dylans after a 3 month wait for a Sunday reservation. No surprise as to why it's so popular, both the pork belly and the beef were delicious. Portions are generous with plenty of veg, roast potatoes and cauliflower cheese included. Looking forward to going back!

Okay I have to admit I was going for the Scotch eggs at first when I saw they had them on the menu. I was blown away at the Hand Dived Orkney Scallop in Garlic butter as well as the Grilled Sourdough and Burnt Onion Butter along with the Scotch egg. All 3 were delicious. We decided to order the special of the the Lamb chops with a delicious crispy potatoes and a mint chimichiuiri sauce that was made in house. What a meal to remember paired nicely with a glass of a White Wine with the starters then Red Wine with the mains. We finished with the Dairy Cow Sticky Toffee Pudding and Salted Caramel Ice Cream we liked that it wasn't sweet like the desserts in the US. 10/10 meal!

Review of Visit: 09/02 at 12:15 Party Size: 4 people Total Cost: £195 Given the high demand for Sunday bookings, I would recommend reserving a table at least a month in advance unless you are flexible with dates. The overall service was satisfactory, and the restaurant had an elegant décor. However, I found the lighting to be somewhat dim for my preference. Duck Spring Roll Starter - Generously filled with meat, though slightly over-seasoned and salty. Monkfish Starter - Not quite what I expected, as the flavor resembled salmon more than monkfish, but it was still enjoyable and refreshing. Olives – Unfortunately, they were overly salty and inedible. For our mains, we ordered two pork belly roasts, one lamb, and one chicken. The cauliflower cheese was delicious, the vegetables were well-cooked, and the roast potatoes were excellent. One of our party members has a milk allergy, so the cauliflower cheese was substituted with plain boiled cauliflower. However, there was no alternative provided for the Yorkshire pudding. This was a shame as the Yorkshire pudding itself was excellent. The portion sizes for the cauliflower and potatoes were on the smaller side, but everything was flavorful. Finding parking in St Albans was challenging, as most street parking was reserved for permit holders, and at least one nearby car park was full. The quality of the food was good, but the lunch was quite expensive for what it was.
