Ciscoe's Pan Asian & Sushi

Lovely food and fantastic servers, very pleasant experience!

My boyfriend booked this as a surprise for me. Lovely welcome from the staff who were all friendly. We were sat in the room to the left which I do feel could do with a little more decor to match the room you first walk into. Felt a little bit like there was a lot of focus on the first room being made cosy and pretty with the room on the left a bit basic. As this was a romantic meal for us it did mean we lost a bit of that mood due to the decor. Food was lovely. Lots of choice and portion sizes were ideal for us. We did feedback to the manager that a member of staff had cleared our plates as I was taking my first bite of the last bit of sushi we had which made me feel really rushed and uncomfortable. We're always nervous about giving feedback but the manager was great and took this on board, addressed it with the staff straight away and was so polite and grateful which we appreciated. I have to mention the dessert which was INCREDIBLE and one of the best desserts l've ever had. Tempura ice cream! I was so intrigued when I saw it on the menu so had to try it and to be honest, thought it sounded like it wouldn't work but it was amazing. I'd recommend saving room so you can try it, I'm also someone who wouldn't usually order an ice cream dessert let alone recommend ice cream. Can't imagine anyone not liking it.

Top notch. What a cracking meal. Thank you

This supposed to be a special night out to celebrate my birthday but upon entering we were directed to a shabby little table in a corner. The decor gives you a feeling of a depressing teens bedroom and due to it's size it doesn't need many people before the noise of chatting, laughing and swearing(we had our two young children with us) became deafening. It was a shock that for a 'premium' Asian style restaurant to be given cheap throwaway chopsticks was quite an insult not to mention my wife received a splinter from hers. Finally and unfortunately we come to the food. We ordered Yakitori Chicken skewers and Tempura Prawn Ramen for starters. We asked for a few bowls to share the Ramen. While waiting, the manager came over and attempted to take the dry clean bowls while saying 'I will clean away your miso bowls' we had NOT ordered Miso and explained we are still waiting for the Ramen starter. Embarrassing he went to check on the Ramen. The Yakitori arrived along with the Tempura prawns but no Ramen. We started presuming the Ramen was on its way. The Yakitori was quite bland and needed to be drowned in sweet chilli and soy to be granted any flavour. Eventually after ten minutes we asked where was the Ramen that the manger went to the kitchen to chase up. It turned out it was not prepared and had to wait another ten minutes for it to be made. Eventually it arrived and we shared it out accordingly. Again this was a 'premium' dish that was quite bland. But even as we were serving it out the mains came along which led to a confused rearranging of the small table. For the mains we ordered the Sushi lover's platter and two side sushi plates. At last these looked very special and something Ciscoe's could be proud of. We spoke too soon...the rice was low grade and nearly all the sushi fell apart when picked up. It was clearly made to look beautiful but eating it showed its true quality. Based on the other sushi providers in Norwich Ciscoe's has a very long way to go to be considered adequate let alone premium. In truth the only premium part of Ciscoe's is their prices. If you love quality sushi avoid Ciscoe's at all costs. To summarise what was supposed to be a pleasant evening out to celebrate my birthday with my family turned out to be an expensive lesson on how not to enjoy sushi.

Had the one of the best meals we have had in a long time here to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. The food was quick, top quality, fresh made sushi, with the perfect level of show and theatricality that topped it all off, without trying too hard or being too in-your-face. The hostess was so friendly and helpful, couldn’t have asked for anything more. The pricing was perfectly reasonable for the quality we experienced. We will be back here very soon and would recommend it to anyone.

The food was actually good, but it does not compensate for over one hour waiting time with an empty restaurant Very BAD service, no one checked on us for half hour... Other tables were checked regularly but we were not. We waited for so long that we lost our appetite and will to be there and spend more money on food and drinks. We left the restaurant hungry.
