Salvia - Kirklees

Passing through Mirfield on the navigation on a Saturday, couldn't be bothered to cook so sought out something a little more upmarket than the pub's burgers. This restaurant is around 3/4 mile out of town and at first sight situated in a less than ideal location, next to an industrial/trading estate. But once through the doors, a warm welcome the proprietor juggled tables to make room for the three of us (around 1800 on what was otherwise a fully booked evening. We all opted for the salmon special on a bed of spinach, veg or salad side dish included at £19.50. Fish precisely cooked big tick! The usual range of Italian puddings, and none the worse for that as they were very well done. Went off piste with the wine, a NZ sauvignon blanc (at £28 , in order to get a drier mouthful than the house white. So, around £108, before tip, for the three of us acceptable for food and wine of this standard. Would return (with a booking! if in the area again.

This restaurant is amazing! The food is outstanding and the staff is fantastic. It's the perfect spot for a small celebration. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

We have been visiting this restaurant for years and absolutely adore it. The staff is amazing (special mention to Bobby who has warmly welcomed our son for over a decade!) and they go above and beyond to make our dining experience perfect. The only reason we don't visit more frequently is because I have been vegan for the past four years, but the restaurant is always very accommodating and prepares a delicious vegan risotto for me.

Four friends ate here when staying at the nearby monastery. Initially we were offered a table in a very noisy area, but managed to move somewhere a bit quieter. (Why do restaurants insist on playing loud music, whivh means you can't talk). The food was fine; as a vegetarian, I had a pizza, which was huge and very good. I couldn't finish it! The tiramasu was average.

Another lovely night at our favourite restaurant. Thank you to our servers Joely and Bobby got making it so special and making us feel so comfortable and safe. The food, service and atmosphere was 10/10. I would recommend this place to anyone! Thank you again to the Salvia team
