Ego Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar in Staffordshire Moorlands - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Received a £40 voucher for Father’s Day and looked through the list of restaurants and noticed ego at Stockton brook. Was really looking forward to Sunday lunch there as the description was superb . Went yesterday, 18/08/2024 at 2-45 for lunch and could not have been more disappointed with our main meal. I ordered the prawns as a starter and my partner ordered the goat’s cheese which I must say were absolutely superb. Then we waited a fair while for our mains, mine being the roast beef and my partners was the nut roast. I noticed two meals put under the heat lamps and five minutes later they were delivered to our table. The pink beef that I was supposed to receive was well done and curling up, I tried it and it was so tough it was inedible, the roast potatoes seemed to have leather jackets on them and the red cabbage was cold. I complained and the waitress apologised and took my lunch away. Another one was delivered and the roasties were the same and the meat again was tough. I was asked if I would like anything else but I had gone past it by then. What I can’t understand is why the chefs don’t try the meats beforehand as beef can sometimes give problems. We were still hungry so I had a dessert which was superb and my partner had a hot chocolate which I am afraid to say was only lukewarm.we asked for the bill and the lady knocked £16 off my bill but I am afraid it has put us off visiting again

Good food when it came, however took 1.5 hours to come when the restaurant wasn’t even that busy. Extremely slow service, quite disappointing.

Took advantage again of this great Wednesday night offer of Dine for Two for £40 incl wine. This was our fourth time as a party of four and on each occasion we have all chosen different starters and mains. And we've never been disappointed, good portions, well prepared and presented by friendly professional staff. Keep the offer going and we'll keep coming back.

Took up the Wednesday offer of £20pp, for 2 courses, which includes a bottle of wine. Sat in the conservatory with our dog. Great value and service.

Another great meal again at Ego this time to celebrate our 48th wedding anniversary. Great food and ambience in a packed restaurant where staff and diners had a smile on their faces during our 90 minute stay. Thanks very much see you soon.

Always have a perfect visit when we have our get togethers. Perfect service, food, ambience and of course the cocktails.

Excellent food, great service, lovely atmosphere Not had a bad meal here. It was busy which is also a good sign

Fancying a changing from cooking onboard our narrowboat on the nearby Caldon Canal, we booked to eat at the Hollybush and were pleased that we did. Good food (pork for me, chicken for my wife), pleasant staff and a nice general ambience all contributed to an enjoyable evening, albeit one which worked out a trifle more expensive than we had anticipated. The food and wines are reasonably priced but the sweets and coffees are a bit pricey. Nevertheless, we intend to return when next in the area.

Staff were brilliant, the food was excellent. Lovely and warm in the restaurant on a cool November afternoon, highly recommend.

We went for the £5 lunch deal which was really good value. The food was excellent and the service was good. The place was clean and warm.

The food is always lovely. We went for steak night on a Tuesday for £10 which is slightly misleading when you get there as there is literally only 1 steak on the menu for £10. Slightly disappointing price of the children’s menu given the portion size. The menu is either for under or over 5’s but there is a big difference between a 5 yr old and a 12 yr old. The children’s pizza is very small compared to other places and the price for 2 courses also at £12.95 is on the high price We tend to only go here when there are offers and deals as the regular menu price I think is too expensive However the food is nice and the staff attentive.

Table was booked for 7.30 and wasn’t ready until 7.45 so we had to wait in the bar. We ordered some garlic bread appetisers and the wait for this to arrive was quite long - although drinks had been brought to us. We also waited quite a while for the plates to be cleared and then for the mains to arrive. There were 6 of us and the restaurant was quite busy. We had brought a cake for dessert as it was my birthday and this came out with a lit candle, and the Prosecco came more or less at the same time. Food was lovely, atmosphere great but a little disappointed with the initial waiting -we weren’t eating our mains till almost 9pm. I had visited earlier in the year and given a 5 star glowing review as I couldn’t fault that experience but I’d hope things would be improved a little if I were to visit again

Despite being amazingly busy for a Tuesday evening the service and the food were excellent, as usual!! A lovely, friendly atmosphere. Staff were attentive and friendly, without being intrusive.

food good quality Staff very pleasant, then it's not so good was given 2 vouchers neither of which I was able to use , very confusing, couldn't just have a Sunday roast we had to have the 2 courses , expensive for what we had , waited a while between courses , 2 courses , 2 drinks and 2 coffees cost £55!!! 2 small cofrees £7 And wasn't really worth that amount of money, portions were a little on the small side , just up the road at rhe plough same roast dinner at a carvery at £13.99 each so a big saving to be made . Pity I was looking forward to trying this place out as I've wanted too for a while and the gift of vouchers I thought now was the time , shame really

Booked a table for six people. Two hour time slot. Arrived on time seated then 20 minutes later had to ask to order drinks sat for another 30 minutes so had to ask to order food. I can’t comment on other people’s food but two of us ordered the same dish, it came incomplete and was then so over salted it was hard to eat, spoke to staff who said sorry will mention to the chef but no reply. Ordered pudding with drinks and they came with rotting fruit, green mold in them told staff, they were obviously embarrassed but as I commented as I left our bill was nearly £260 we don’t eat out often and expected so much more. Won’t eat there again

Overall it was very good. For me I would of liked the veggie to be cooked a little more on my lamb kebab and a bit more sauce to go with it. I would go back again and try something different.

Gorgeous meal, had steak £10 rump, beautiful, upgraded to truffle fries and we ordered garlic bread. All amazing

Great place to eat. We both had steaks that were cooked superbly. Staff are very professional and attentive and they create a lovely atmosphere.

Amazing as usual, still our most favourite restaurant in Stoke on Trent. Can't wait to visit again. Has to be seen to be believed.

I have visited Ego 3 times in the past 3 weeks and have found myself slightly disappointed. Our first meal was a Sunday dinner which was okay but nothing special. The second was a girls night. They goats cheese starter was amazing but the paella was a let down, it lacked flavour and felt very oily. The third was my anniversary. Again I had the goats cheese and my partner had the chorizo so we split both between us. The chorizo seemed very bitty compared to the large slices I got last time I had it. I then had the chicken milenase which was extremely oily and I couldn’t eat it. I was very jealous of my partners hanging kebab which he enjoyed. Whilst we were there on 2 occasions, other diners also had issues so I didn’t feel alone. Maybe the menu should be reviewed or stop using so much oil. The atmosphere is always pleasant when I’ve been and the staff helpful. We will give Ego a break for a while and hopefully return to like it again

I have never had a bad experience here. I booked a table for dinner and on the day I got mixed up with the time. No problem they said, we will fit you in! We were given a good table and the waiting staff were...

Been here a few times and once again the food was fantastic. We had starters of soup and pork belly which were both fresh and very tasty. For mains we had chicken and cod dishes which were both cooked to perfection and were both very...

Very much enjoyed our lunch. good well presented food in attractive surroundings with helpful staff. We shall be returning in November as a group of 12 to celebrate my birthday

Lovely venue, staff very attentive and knowledgeable, making suggestions for us both. Food was excellent, drinks a little pricey but expected at a restraunt and didn't distract from an overall pleasurable experience

Tapas: had a voucher and it was for a tapas for 2. We booked a table -only for me to try and look at the menu the day before, and website stated tapas only available on a Wednesday. Would have been helpful to have this...

Lovely birthday treat. Good food, wine and lovely ambiance. The service was prompt and fabulous and we both had tasty food.

We had a lovely evening, food, and service was excellent, we will definitely be going again. The Monday night offer is value for money

Lovely food, excellent service and a really nice restaurant. We visited as a family of 3 and would highly recommend this place. The hanging kebabs are a real winner!

We when to ego’s to celebrate my 65th birthday and what a disappointment the night was. The starter’s were fine I had soup and my wife had goat cheese. Now to the mains, my wife had pork which was lovely. I thought I would treat...

Service was very pleasant and quick. The Rump Steak was absolutely perfect, couldn't fault anything. Would highly recommend.

Seemed all diners were all crammed into a small area in front of kitchen, not a good atmosphere. Both staff were very busy and waiting times were a little too long. Food quality was good but portion sizes have reduced, especially the desserts. Not the...

We had a large group of 20. The food was delicious and the staff were attentive. They also kindly put up photos and banners for us and brought out the birthday cake. The only comment I have that’s negative is that it was really cold...

We had the two course Sunday lunch and it was delicious. We ordered the trio of meat main and a dessert which is excellent value. The service was great too.

I went here for a nice meal with my fiancée only to be verbally abused and threatened by some Stone Island wearing thugs all because management didn't assist a waitress at all when she was having a hard time with the 6 aggressive individuals. I...

Really nice meal and pleasantly surprised when I had an email for my birthday ‘eat on us’. Really good food fantastic for special occasions.

A very enjoyable lunch in pleasant surroundings. Food was good and prices very fair considering we we had a birthday voucher to use. Very efficient staff, good level of service.

Food & service were both exceptional. I used my birthday voucher which was really good value. The prawn chilli linguine was gorgeous & I love a mini pud & hot drink… the mini pud was definitely enough!

Excellent service great food lovely surroundings very enjoyable evening with friends We go st least once a month for lunch too

Food excellent and friendly staff as always. The service was a little slower than usual. We had a birthday voucher but be careful as some of the items on the menu are not included and the bill was a bit more than we expected on...

A catch up night with friends. Didn’t realise it was kebab night.. what a lovely treat! I had the Piri Piri chicken kebab which was delicious, generous portion. Our waiter was lovely and friendly. Super night.

We like this venue and have always been pleased, two of the staff we interacted with were excellent. The third was very very miserable, not good for a customer facing member of staff. Felt like we had done something wrong.

Fabulous food, lovely staff and great atmosphere. We had a lovely night and would highly recommend.

A lovely roast dinner with excellent roast potatoes - perhaps the hardest thing to get right. The service was excellent and our waiter was most helpful. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

The restaurant was very busy but I feel that this shouldn’t take away the standard of service which sadly on this occasion it did. The drinks were extremely slow to arrive and we had to ask for dessert menus three times. The starters and desserts...

My husband and I go to Egos on a regular basis, it is our local pub/ restaurant. Sometimes just for drinks, but also for meals on many occasions. The foods always excellent and service is always good and staff are really pleasant. Highly recommend a...

Staff are very attentive but the place is so relaxing, and the food is so delicious. Something to suit everyone's taste.

Excellent service and food. The only slight complaint is that the background music is a little loud if you want a conversation.

Nice pub with good grub! They have special discount nights eg steak night. We had a 20% reduction sent by email and Sunday they do a 2 course meal at a good price for the standered of cooking.

I’ve been to ego a few times now and everytime I always leave happy and full. The Monday deal is a great price and for somewhere with good quality food and a great atmosphere you just can’t beat it.

Amazing food and great service every time I go here. Would 100% recommend a visit. Especially the Sunday roast and stick toffee pudding

Great service. We had the vegan menu as my husband has a dairy allergy. Sadly the food was tasteless and average. Great there is a separate menu but not great quality.

Had a lovely time with friends at Ego . Food , service and ambience all perfect 👌 will definitely be back soon

We visited as a family of 5, staff provided exceptional friendly, efficient, professional service, food was delicious

Excellent food, great service, price was reasonable, we also did go outside for a drink, great set up for outdoor and they do have an undercover part too, will be returning with our daughter this week to sample the Tapas night

Went for my daughters birthday with the family and the food was fine, the menu is still the same and something for everyone. The food was fine however the service was below what we would expect, the waiters were not attentive, I had to request...

Lovely family get together. Great cocktails, attentive staff, great food. We will be back. Thank you x

Went for lunch with friends and we ordered from the lunch menu; our food was delicious, hot and well presented. The staff were attentive and polite as usual we had a great experience.

We visited tonight for a friends birthday meal. The food and cocktails were great as always and our server Chloe went above and beyond! Always a great atmosphere.

Fantastic meal and wonderful service by our waitress Chloe. She even sang a happy birthday to my lovely friend for her birthday. Will definitely revisit and highly reccomend

Great evening out celebrating my birthday! Lovely surprise on my dessert too! Food and service was fab!!

Excellent meal, food was really nice, service very welcoming , polite and friendly staff. We had 3 courses . Soup okay, pan fried chicken supreme excellent and dessert also excellent too !

Very disappointed Yorkshire puddings were burnt and beef fatty.. Need to step up as they have a lot of competition in the area

Service was brilliant. Kept my daughter surprise birthday meal a secret when she came in was just brilliant.

We had a lovely evening at The Ego excellent food and amazing service could not fault it Our waiter Yannis was exceptional checking everybody’s order before leaving the table and so pleasant too

A really nice meal, well prepared dishes with genuine fresh tasting ingredients, the salads served with the meals really standing out. Efficient friendly service and importantly for us a dedicated and extensive Gluten free menu that doesn’t make the poor Celiac feel like a 2nd...

An excellent meal, I would highly recommend this place to everyone. The food was of high quality and the service is excellent.

Lovely evening with my grandson home from uni, steak night.Excellent Great atmosphere ,pleasant staff.

We had a table of 14 for my son's 18th birthday. The service was second to none, the food was fantastic and served hot. Clean and lovely surroundings. Great cocktails too. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Always fantastic food comfortable atmosphere so welcoming. Suits all occasions and ages. Lovely relaxing conservatory or outdoor seating for coffee after your meal

Great evening out with a friend visiting Stoke. Great Steak Frites and dessert. Good value, good ambience and lovely table service.

Good food although the garlic Mushrooms were more creamy than garlic. The main course of Chilli Prawns Linguine was good. The only downside was as a table of 2 in the main dining area we were surrounded by 3 very noisy group tables. On a...

Great menu. Very very very fast service and felt a bit rushed to begin with, but waitress was amazing and think once she realised we weren't in a rush for courses she slowed down. For mains my husband had hanging mixed kebab which he loved...

Steak night. Table service good. Food Service rapid. Food and drinks lovely. Steak cooked perfectly to our choice. Very busy. A little dark where we were sat. But the candlelight gave us some atmosphere. X

Food was poor on the evening, chicken supreme dry not enough sauce and chicken and chorizo paella had no chicken in it and was sent back, on hindsight should have sent chicken supreme back as well.

We have signed up to Ego Club and wanted to use our 20% voucher, because why not, it's there for us to use! We followed the steps and informed the lady who greeted us, to which she said this offer won't apply to the steak...

Lunch booked for 2pm. Service slow. Food before drinks. Food nothing special. Left at 5-15. As staff setting up for dinner.

Great service by all especially yannis who did everything to make our experience as amazing as possible. The food was delicious and every meal was gorgeous and a decent size

Great service and brilliant choice and price for early diners. Fully recommend we will make this a regular booking. Lovely decor adding to the overall ambience. Joe our waiter was very attentive.

The Monday night special was what originally enticed me to book. However, the staff were exceptional and the food was superb. What’s not to love?

We often visit this restaurant, mainly to celebrate occasions like birthdays, etc. Recently, we went for lunch with my daughter, her husband and out two grandchildren aged 5 and and 15 months. We were seated in an alcove in the main restaurant, which worked well....

Our visit to Ego didn’t disappoint; we went for Sunday lunch and the food was delicious and service was good too. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming and relaxing.

Great to see that you could combine the anniversary drinks and 20% off voucher. Felt like a real treat. Lamb was a bit tough in the morrocan lamb but other wise great food, great service and lovely cocktails. Happy to return

Food was amazing, service was excellent. Would be better if birthday vouchers could be used at lunchtime, to give the customer more options on when to visit
