Me encanta la comida aquí, el servicio es lento, pero luego ir para una comida aquí está la noche y es de esperar que estará aquí un tiempo, así que no es una buena idea llevar a niños.

Realmente decepcionado, reservamos una mesa para dos para el 31 de marzo para celebrar nuestro compromiso y nos llamó tres días antes de nuestra reserva se dijeron que el hotel estaba cerrado. Desaparecido. Terminado. Que hicimos nuestra reserva a sólo 10 días antes, así que obviamente este fue un decisión repentina sin ningún pensamiento para clientes que habíamos reservado. Para un restaurante de calidad, que Blas era, esta es una forma de tratar a los clientes en mal estado; cierre de repente y no honrando somos.

I have a gluten free and dairy free diet and the chef took time to run through the whole menu with me around what could be modified and what couldn't, in order to meet my needs. Quality of the food I had was great. Evening menu starters ranged £8-£10 and mains around £15-£25. Would come back! Thanks Blas.

I enjoyed a wood pigeon breast with pear and barley salad as a starter, loin of porrk with a good selection of vegetables as the main and a delicious interesting sweet of spicy carrot cake, ginger and honey mousse, goats cheese ice cream and a caramel wafer. All this for £20. You will always find an imaginative element to the food at Blas. Ardderchog . Diolch yn fawr iawn.

From the moment you walk into the Blas you are made to feel welcome. We were a table of four and each one of us thoroughly enjoyed the meal from the titbits brought to the table whilst we were deciding on the meal, to the beautiful dessert. The titbits last night were rabbit and goat cheese with pickled red onion - something I would never choose but they were delicious. The good thing about the Blas is they change their menu monthly. Last night the ambience was great and being local one is bound to come across someone you know and last night was no exception. We will be back

As a vegetarian who works in the hospitality trade I find it sometimes hard to find places to eat which offer interesting, well thought out dishes which don't make me feel as if I've either been short changed or that I'm just an annoying after thought as a diner. Well I can happily say that Blas really impressed this very hard to please vegetarian. I had the delicious chicory, manadarin and goats cheese salad - flavours were subtle, fresh, interesting and basically the best lunch I've had in however long. I'd love to go back and see what the rest of the menu might offer and see if their evening menu would also hold up, but in meantime I'm happy to report massively impressed.

We were given a voucher so we went for our anniversary dinnerIt was deliciously fabulous!!! The ambiance, the stunning food, and the waiters & waitresses were professionally excellent!We were treated to complimentary appetisers of fish balls with fried skin atop, cheddar pastry twirls with chorizo - both wonderful Then a lil teacup of celeriac horseradish soup served with a miniature loaf of wheat bread! It was heaven!Next our ordered appetiser arrived which was ham hock terrine with smoked ham - another masterpiece - I think they might actually make the terrine in-house? My husband says no cos its truly out if this world. We did ask for toast or a bit of bread with it and they happily provided it.Our mains was fillet of beef with beef cheek croquet - omg!!! Seriously melt in your mouth tasty beef! Cooked to perfection! Served with a healthy portion of chunky chips.We passed on desserts but ordered espressos and then were treated to homemade chocolates on a slate that had happy Anniversary in chocolate written on it. Awwww!!! The wine list was extensive and varied. We were quite pleased to see a reasonably priced Malbec on the list. Thank you to everyone at Blas for making our special evening so wonderfully memorable !

This is the 2nd time at this place and the food was excellent: the presentation, flavours, textures, etc. were of very good quality (possibly of Masterchef's standards). Just one minor comment: I had the apple and parsnip soup; it could be improved by adding a touch of chilli or hot paprika to neutralise the sweet flavour. Otherwise, all excellent including the friendly waiter.

Both occasions the meals were top notch. Starters mains and desserts were a delight.

We were visiting from out of town and Blas was recommended to us by our hotel (Plas Dinas). The table booked by phone a week earlier.The restaurant was full when arrived but our table was ready and waiting. The restaurant is small, but nicely laid out with a good level of privacy for each table.Everything that we ate was just delicious, we couldn't fault a single thing. From the delicious and interesting canapes, amuse bouche and all the way through to dessert - everything was beautifully cooked, looked amazing and tasted even better.Clever flavours with interesting but high quality ingredients. Our mid range bottle of Rioja was also excellent and went well with everything we ate.Service was also faultless and friendly. Given the high-end food nature of the restaurant - it is still very comfortable with no stuffiness.We both agreed it was one of the best meals we'd ever eaten and is a credit to the owners.

My boyfriend and I went to Blas on a whim while on a day trip to Caernarfon. We wandered along the street and both liked the look of the menu so we went in. As it was relatively early (about 6pm if memory serves me), there were plenty of tables available and we were seated immediately, in a nice table for 2 right by the window. During our meal the restaurant became completely full - upstairs and downstairs - and although it was clear there were only two servers working (and having to serve the bar as well), they both did a fantastic job. Our food was served and cleared promptly, and they were polite and friendly the whole time. The food itself was delicious, and the amuse-bouche were an extra treat that we both really enjoyed.Would thoroughly recommend - it's a shame it's too far for a return visit anytime soon!

I've reviewed this place in the past, and given it very high scores, but... something's not quite right here any more. Our starter of Venison Terrine was so compressed it took almost a hunting knife to break into it, and the sweetness which one would expect in order to balance the dish was absent. If I'm honest, it reminded me of those NAKD bars you buy in Tesco, but savoury and at four times the price. Oops...The guinea fowl was OK (but the portion small), the hake tasty - and with the Chorizo added was marvellous. The Romanian lady who served us was literally the high spot of the evening.Something's going wrong here, and I'm really disappointed. PLEASE, PLEASE do something about this before people start turning away from your door. Dowch 'laen hogia - 'dach chi'n well na hyn, siawns!!!

We were not disappointed by the quality of the food here. We ordered the tasting menu and it was delicious. The only disappointing course was a strange venison pate with sour tasting blackberries and a sickly smear of chocolate. The venison was tasteless and just didn't go with the other ingredients. The rest of the courses were fantastic, especially the cod dish and the beetroot risotto, both of which were excellent. The service was a little disappointing. I would like the waiting staff to have mentioned what each of the courses was as they were served as it was difficult to remember from the brief glance of the menu we'd had.

Then we spotted Blas hidden away down a side street and were glad we followed our instincts and went inside. The menu was a joy and it was difficult to choose. The celeriac and horseradish soup was imaginative and delicious, the poached salmon, smoked salmon and prawn open sandwich superb and my partner's Welsh rarebit delicious.

We chose from the lunch menu and three of us had eggy bread with pork sausage , plum tomatoes and mushrooms. It was well presented and we had no complaints at all. George our 22 month old grandson had a pasta dish off the children's menu and he had no complaints either.

The seafood platter was fresh and subtle with coriander mayonnaise and little leaves of sorrel that complimented the crab, prawns, salmon two ways and fresh anchovies. The duck confit was also superb. Both main courses certainly met expectations, the lamb was good as was the pork with some delightful flavours and texturesrunning through the plates.

Then another once we were waiting for it to arrive. All the food was delicious and well presented. The person preparing the food really knows about combining flavours. We had the lamb three ways and then a fabulous panacotta with strawberries, pepper and basil. Great combo. We've never had crispy lamb belly either. It was superb.

On my first visit here I was impressed with the food but put request for toilet to be more accessible to disabled people. A couple of grab rails and raised toilet would meet needs of most disabled people. But nothing has changed. This time, went for Sunday lunch. It was not up to previous standard. Waited for over an hour for main course. No explanation or apologies. Because we were with friends, we did not want to complain. Roast dinner was awful. Roast potatoes seemed they had been done in microwave. Meat was good. I could not eat the Yorkshire pudding, so gooey. Later found out it was a different chef. obviously one chef can't cover all shifts, but owner needs to make sure they all have same standards.

Lassen sie sich nicht von der äußeren Hülle und dem ersten Eindruck abschrecken, dass Essen ist echt toll. Ob Kleinigkeit oder etwas für den großen Hunger - alles wird frisch zubereitet. Tagessuppe und Gerichte könnten zwar etwas mehr Würze vertragen, aber das ist Geschmackssache. Preis-Leistung stimmt und somit ein kleines nettes Lokal an der Stadtmauer von Caernarfon. Der Service ist zuvorkommend. Rundum gut.

My wife and I have eaten here a couple of times now and on both occasions, the food and service were excellent. The menu is fairly short but there were several tempting options. Nice atmosphere, good value for the quality of food on offer and we will definitely return.

After walking around the castle we just needed a place to stop for a drink and this restaurant was handily placed and looked very nice. There is a nice terrace area outside where we sat. The service was quick and not a problem that we just wanted drinks (although the cake I noticed on the counter looked very good and I was quite tempted).

Just back from a great holiday in North Wales. Some great pub food but Blas in Caernarfon was a class above that. Delicate flavours, great cooking and friendly service at reasonable prices. Accidentally found it and then re- booked. Worth a visit.

My wife and I visited during a short stay in Caernarfon. We were delighted to find such a good restaurant on our final evening. Welcoming staff and a good atmosphere. A well presented amuse bouche and a complimentary small pea and ham soup with bread set us off well as our food was prepared. Very creative modern dishes on delightfully simple menu with something for all tastes. Mains were a well flavoured vegetarian ravioli and a superb fillet of beef with a delicious ox cheek croquette and just enough mustard based sauce. The steak was an excellent quality aged piece, perfectly cooked and well seasoned. Starter and deserts were excellent too.

Based on this restaurants #3 out of 79 we must have picked a very bad day to go.Waited over 15 minutes at an outside table to get served (staff knew we were there) the table was dirty with bird poo. over 30 minute wait for food to arrive, table still not cleaned. Food we had was fine, no complaints but overall not a great experience.

Best place in Caernarfon for an evening meal. I had the steak which was perfectly cooked and the dessert was also beautiful. I will certainly be back soon.

Was recommended by a cab driver. Lovely food, with excellent veg options as well. Black boy around the corner from here was full so we decided to go here instead.

The Sunday Lunch (roast beef) was excellent. Service was efficient and friendly. Wine was excellent. Panacota wasn't the right consistency, it was too stiff.

Blas (which means taste or flavour, both In Irish and Welsh) is a small restaurant over two floors of an old building tucked in against the city wall in Caernarfon. It is a lovely quiet space, serving food of very high quality. Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food, but it is not cheap. We paid £40 a head for food, but in London the same quality would cost closer to £140 a head.The staff are extremely professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and unobtrusive. They knew every question we asked about the menu and the food. Most of it is locally sourced, and the menu showed some very clever purchasing.I tried the tasting menu, which I normally avoid, but I could not resist trying all the options. The second portion of dessert was little too much to finish, but I can honestly say I have only once or twice had a better meal anywhere. This is the very top end of restaurant food, prepared, plated and served to an exceptional standard.All I can say is that it is worth going to Caenarfon just to eat here. There are, of course, lots of other reason to go there, but Blas would justify a visit on its own.

We ate here on the second night of our stay in Caernarfon after a bad experience elsewhere the previous night. The food was absolutely wonderful, very high quality dining and a nice wine list to match. It is open all day as a cafe but quite different in the evening. Beware as it closes at 9pm so eat earlier and i think you would need to book in advance. If we return, we will eat here every evening! The staff are really lovely as well.

Visited for lunch with friends and had a lovely meal and scone to follow. Staff were helpful and prices are reasonable. Menu is quite limited and hadn't changed since we last visited before Christmas.

We had dinner in Blas to celebrate my wife's birthday. The service was both friendly and impeccable. After the complimentary hors d’oeuvres we shared a seafood platter which was delicious. This was followed by complimentary soup with a warm bread roll. For main course I had the beef which was incredibly tender and accompanied by an ox cheek fritter. My wife had the sea bass which was fresh and beautifully cooked. The dishes that we had didn't seem enormous, but neither of us could manage a dessert.

Over the last couple of weeks, I've had the pleasure of eating at Blas three times. Every time the staff and food are a delight. The canapés, starters and mains are very well put together plates of food, layering flavour after flavour. Highlights include the sea bas and new potatoes. I've had it twice. Sublime stuff. I would highly recommend this place. It's a jewel in north wales, and makes the work trips up here more bearable. Only two dour note for me are the mini soup courses and the background music. The soup, for me, seems to have copious amounts of cream, and so seem very very rich and sometimes have an a heavy cream flavour. The restaurant seems to have a thing for Billy Joel. It's constant and seemingly never ending. I guess as I've visited so frequently than its more prevalent...Minor bad things to be honest! Go and enjoy!

Wanted to eat after 2pm and Blas served until 3pm so perfect for late lunch. We had ploughmans, Caesar salad and club sandwich - all excellent quality and nicely presented. Service was friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for lunch close to the castle but not too pricey.
