"I had the pleasure of visiting La Terraza Tapas Bar in Upton with my kids, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. The ambiance was incredibly cozy and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a family outing. The friendly staff added to the welcoming atmosphere, making us feel right at home. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the tapas selection. The steak with chimichurri sauce was a burst of flavors that left us craving for more, and the Tempura prawns were simply delectable. It's clear that the chefs here take pride in their creations, as every dish we tried was a delightful journey for the taste buds. As a first-time visitor, I was thoroughly impressed by the overall experience, and I can confidently say it won't be our last visit. While the prices leaned slightly towards the expensive side, the quality of the food and the cozy ambiance more than made up for it. La Terraza Tapas Bar strikes the perfect balance between a gourmet dining experience and a comfortable family outing. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant, which is always an important factor for me when choosing a place to dine. All in all, La Terraza Tapas Bar offers a fantastic option for a memorable lunch with family or friends. If you're looking for a place that combines delicious food, a warm atmosphere, and a touch of elegance, this is definitely a spot worth considering.

"I wondered why this restaurant described itself on the board outside as ‘fusion’, why there were so many Korean dishes on the menu and why the serving staff have heard of Asahi beer but haven’t heard of The Asahi Shimbun, a Japanese daily newspaper that is at least 50 years old. The answer is that the Akasaka website isn’t being completely honest when it describes their Northampton branch as a Japanese restaurant. They aren’t really Japanese, although some of their menu items are clearly Japanese. Don’t let that put you off, however, as they are serving excellent food and we enjoyed our meal there very much. It cost us about £70 (inc. 10% tip) for our meal for two people including a 175ml glass of Sauvignon Blanc for my lovely wife and two 330ml bottles of Asahi Dry for me. The sushi was excellent, the edamame beans were great but we didn’t feel that the Dolsot Bibimbap (a Korean dish with loads of rice, some shredded vegetables, prawns and a fried egg on top) offered very good value for money at just under sixteen pounds. We would recommend Akasaka in Northampton and would certainly go there again, but if we want a genuinely Japanese meal, prepared and served by Japanese staff, then we will be sticking to Ginza Restaurant on Wellingborough Road in Northampton. Don’t like the way that the male members of staff at Sakura on Bridge Street speak to their female colleagues, very disrespectful, so we avoid that Japanese restaurant nowadays. Great to have a choice of three Japanese restaurants in Northampton post-pandemic, and our favourite of the three is Ginza."

"I begrudge having to write this review, however I am appalled by the service (or lack of) from the red lion. I’ve tried to contact them several times and have been ignored, which is especially frustrating since the manger replied to a review a few days ago. We made a booking of 20+ for my partner’s birthday in June. Although the food was lovely, the service was not. Firstly, we were left waiting a while for the food even though it was preordered. Secondly, each person had to go to the bar to order drinks as staff did not take orders from the table even though it was on one tab. They were clearly understaffed on the night, considering the size of our party. Thirdly, there was an issue with the preorder of desserts and some people did not receive a dessert and were not informed until the rest of the group had theirs. The lady dealing with this was also quite rude and did not offer a resolution. Finally, there was a dispute about the bill and I’ve emailed the manager several times as some items cannot be attributed to anyone in the party but have not received a response. Emails were sent on 28/06, 03/07 and 15/07. It really is a shame as we’ve been here before and enjoyed the food, but it is safe to say that none of the party will be returning and the customer service received is unsatisfactory. Again, I would have been happy to resolve this but feel forced to write a review due to the lack of response."

"the visit to the business was really surprised to find a quirky facility like this in the heart of northampton. free film tekken games in the cellar?! something that is more like a trendy escaping in shoreditch. very friendly customer service, the best experience I had in a long time. the young man who served me was polite, attentively very helpful, without being too od. they recommend 2 3 tapas per person, but personally for me the portions are generous 2 (plus a sweet tapas if they have 're part of dessert room more than enough. I went with the Korean fried chicken that was beautiful. the only other place that makes Korean fried huh so good is shackfuyu in soho, london. (and these are wings, so much chaosier pork buns were delicious had a unique smoked taste, but the rolls needed to be a little lighter a bit more moist for a more authentic bio taste. but very hearty satisfying. fish tacos delicious, very generous with the coriander that some people like, but I loved it. the diligent who touched the fish was tastefully divine. churros for dessert again generous portion, could easily be between 2. that was my favorite dish. the churros needed to dilute, made less greasy with a sweeter dough, with a topped chocolate to dive with on the side, instead of on the top drizzled. the chocolate sauce was on the square. sweet decadent, therefore I have eaten 3/4 of the generously dimensioned deep roasted dough jewelry 't regret it a bit. I think the sweet tapas options must be extended, maybe something quirky like matcha (green tee soft serve ice cream or maybe a yuzu lemon tart ... but is northampton ready for it?! recommend it to me! Yes! absolutely."

"Loved this place just ticks all the boxes! Great decor, relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, sensible prices, and OMG what a choice! One of our party is coeliac and this place was highly recommended I see why! The choice of GF was amazing the menu was pretty much the same as non GF. We had booked for Saturday, but after a busy Friday, we dropped in thinking if it wasn't good, we would go elsewhere on Saturday instead. Needless to say, we didn't cancel and ate here twice. Tapas was three for £12 and reasonable portions we tried the honey feta delicious, crispy crispy arancini, bbq chicken wings, patatas bravas, grain bowl great hummus , squid rings, and our fave bang bang cauli. The truffle chicken was mouth wateringly tasty. The burgers were good and lots of additional sides to choose from something for everyone. We particularly enjoyed the soft drinks options sherbet lemonade, a peachy one, a watermelon one sooo much nicer than coke or sprite, great for designated drivers. Personally I was a little disappointed at the dessert choices white choc not a thing! cheesecake, brownie, ice cream sundae and churros although the brownie and the churros were good! I just like a fruity or light option. And to be really nit picky, the mac n cheese was literally mac n cheese no creamy sauce. Certainly wouldn't stop us from coming again on our next trip to N'ton. Now please open a branch in Norwich!"
