Le Gallois

Price: Expensive

Le Gallois ('the Welshman') is an institution in the Welsh capital thanks to new head chef Grady Atkins. The food is not only excellent, it is also very distinctive (there aren't that many restaurants around serving French food with a Welsh twist) and well presented. Add to this a relaxed atmosphere and friendly service and you are onto a winner. Booking advised.

Address: 6-10 Romilly Crescent, Cardiff, United Kingdom
Telephone: (029) 2034 1264.

Dorothy's

Price: Cheap

'The best chippy in town', many locals will tell you. Definitely a Cardiff institution (it's been going for over 50 years), so do give it a go. Fish and chips (the cod is excellent), chicken curry, fries, the usual suspects. Perfect after a night on the town.

Address: 39-40 Caroline Street, Cardiff, United Kingdom
Telephone: (029) 2064 5813.

Armless Dragon

Price: Expensive

This warm, informal and inviting place is a long-standing foodie haven and the epitome of Modern Welsh cooking, taking classic dishes – such as cawl (a Welsh stew) and rarebit – and fresh organic and local ingredients and serving them up with a sophisticated gastronomic twist.

Address: 4 Windsor Place, Cardiff, United Kingdom
Telephone: (029) 2038 2357.

Inside Cardiff Bay’s St David's Hotel is an award-winning restaurant, Tides, which offers beautiful seafood and excellent local produce, in plush interior boasting superb views of the Millennium waterfront. There is a terrace for alfresco dinning in summer.

Thai House

Price: Moderate

This excellent Thai restaurant has been going strong since 1985 and offers delicious food and friendly, professional service by staff wearing traditional Thai dress. The restaurant does fish and meat dishes equally well, and the curries are fantastic. The house speciality, however, is fillet of salmon and broccoli marinated in a red curry paste and steamed in banana leaves.
