Let’s start with the music. It’s stupidly loud. So loud you cannot hear the person next to you talking. It’s difficult to talk to the serving staff to order extra drinks. It was so loud we cut the meal short and left. Food was a mixed bag. 8 meals ordered, at least 3 supplied cold. Others lukewarm at best. One appeared burnt. Drinks were fine. Didn’t hang around for puddings etc as said before, we left as soon as we could. Bill was around £190 for 8 people including drinks.

Half of it was dog friendly which was good as we had a dog. Good service and we adults were "allowed " to have a half portion of roast which was great and more than enough for us. Good views from front of restaurant

One of the best roasts we've had out. Superb homemade huge yorkies, thick tasty gravy, wonderful cauli cheese. Faultless. Lovely team of ladies serving us also. Highly recommend 👌

Absolute disappointment.... Chicken wings were dry and over cooked .... Nachos had no real cheese just looked like baby food chucked on them .. never bothered tasting... Dr Dre flatbread had no Chicken in it despite costing £15 just covered in bbq sauce ... asked for extra dip that cost £2 came out at the end of the meal ...was then charged £6 service charge even though we waited nearly an hour for the food ..... did not complain just won't go back and wouldn't recommend

We popped in on a spontaneous day out in Margate, as we had our first date here! 2 1/2 years on, the drinks were still good and we enjoyed the bar snacks. I'm sure we will be back again in the summer :)

This is one the worst places I have been to for food. Pretty much all the food was covered with a very hot chilli sauce which made everything inedible. Guessing the people cooking don't actually try their own food.

We had a lunch on Sunday due a heavy traffic we arrived 20 minutes late When we arrived we apologies with the receptionist he was kind of upset for our delay while 3 quarters of the restaurant was empty , after all the lunch was fine apart the waiters where stressing us every minute trying to upselling drinks and food I can understand that but this was too much Not big expectations from this place not cheap at all with the same money you can have a better experience somewhere else in Margate

I visited the bar on Saturday afternoon with my black friend to have a drink and use the male and female bathroom. The Manager challenged us immediately as to why we were there and tried to back us backwards using his body and volatile manner. We explained why we were there and he gestured towards the bar in a very hostile manner indeed. We said we would like to know where the individual bathrooms were and he reluctantly gestured towards the ladies, choosing to disregard my friend. I asked him where the male bathroom was. He was very volatile. I attempted to ask him if he was the Manager afterwards so I could respectfully express my upset at his treatment towards us and again he avoided, reflected, projected and refused to accept his behaviour, refusing to even listen to what I had to say. He called Security to have us removed and even the young female security person said openly "this isn't right!" In our defence. The food and the bar etc may be very nice, but I have never experienced such blatant vile and discriminate behaviour as a customer in my life... And I am nearly 50 yrs old. Utterly disgusting!

Well, while down in Thanet we'd heard about the Cinque Ports and what a good cocktail it serves. So we dived on the train and popped our heads in. One Espresso Martini & Margarita. I can honestly say, that the Espresso Martini was one of the best & may be the best I've had so far. I believe the Margarita wasn't to bad either 😁💃🕺🍸🍸.

Vegetarian food was awful, not authenticate Mexican. Really gross vegan cheese sauce and overpriced nachos with stale chips. All that, and a ridiculous service charge which was over 10% of the bill. The balcony was covered in spiders as well. The only redeeming factor was the drinks.

I discovered that Cinque Ports had become a Mexican restaurant today. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the Piggie Smalls tacos with Mexican fries. The tacos were so fresh and yummy, and the fries had the best seasoning I've ever had on them. Churros for pudding, which were fab. The decor is gorgeous and colourful. I absolutely recommend a visit to Cinque Ports if you're in the area.

Nice atmosphere and stylish decoration, in a superb location with seaview. The team was very friendly and accomodating. Hot drinks (hot chocolate, coffees) were nice. The food tasty and we were served quickly even though it was very busy and were a big group. The spicy cocktails are a bit special, wouldn't order them again but all other drinks seemed to be good.

Was told when food arrived that if he had known my friend was a celiac we wouldn't have been served at all. He seemed pretty annoyed that the waitress hadn't asked as said friend ordered gluten free. Kinda made everything a bit awkward . Food was okay small and over priced. Loaded fries all I could taste was lime. Nice atmosphere. Kitchen looked a little dirty/ messy. Prob wouldn't visit again

It's hard to find good Mexican food in the U.K. and fortunately this place delivers. If you like your tacos hot hot hot, ask for the fresh homemade salsa that uses actual habanero peppers. Definitely a place worth visiting if you are in Margate. Also, Ray, the owner, is just an awesome guy!

We were completely stunned by the quality of food here. This has to be one of the best Restaurants in Margate by far. Friendly staff and along with our dog Casper was made very welcome in the dog friendly area. The Mexican food mixed with Sunday lunch is truly inventive. The cocktails were amazing and even the dog was given gravy bones and water. Our dog was so chilled he even asked if we could go again lol.

This place is a Margate culinary staple for me. The food is quite phenomenal. They do a great selection of Mexican street food that is truly inspired and authentic - excellent handcrafted fresh nachos and really delightful tacos that take me back to a particular street in Mexico City. They started doing roasts recently with a Mexican twist which sounds weird, but really works.
