Ego in Lichfield

A lovely festive lunch with a friend overlooking the cathedral’s side, by natural light and lovely views, just as we requested. The attention to detail was delightful; fast and friendly service in addition. The food was fresh, delicious and generous in terms of portions. Great value too. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.

Food was outstanding 1st time visiting for christmas meal

I recently attended here with family as a party of 6. For a weekday evening, it was pretty full which is always a good sign. It's very bright and fresh looking inside, which sets a nice scene. The table waiter was very friendly. We ordered hanging kebabs, the duo of pork and pizza for mains. This was followed by sorbet, lemon tart and apple pie and custard for dessert. The food tasted great. I would highly recommend if your looking for somewhere with a nice setting and decent food.

Food was alright going in. It was terrible coming out, that’s partly because it was mixed with my own blood as I threw up all night long. How do I know it was the food from Ego Litchfield? Well my friends and I came for a meal together. I had the duo pork & the garlic mushrooms , my friends had the steak, we all ended up sick as dogs today. Truly was excited to come here but so disappointed in what is probably a cleanliness or food quality issue. I don’t commonly get food poisoning but from a place so well regarded was a shock.

Very busy and felt rushed.Food quality wasn't great but that might just been my choice of food

The staff on the night was superb

Just had a drink but will go again.

The place was large and quite busy but the noise level was acceptable for the size of venue. The food was quite good although the service was a bit slow. We don’t drink alcohol so can’t comment on the beverages

We had a really enjoyable lunch at Ego Lichfield. The service provided by Harriet was excellent. The restaurant was very busy with a nice atmosphere albeit rather noisy due to the low ceilings

Enja, she was pure joy! Had a laugh with us and to be honest would of liked her to join us, a great visit to Ego!

I have had better food here but the service was fantastic and Harriet was excellent

Really nice food. Enja was lovely!

It was an amazing birthday dinner at Ego Lichfield last night and I would like to thank the welcoming and professional staff there for making my evening so special.

Anna was a superb waitress. So pleasant, polite and in control despite a very busy shift.

Our waitress Anna was an absolutely fantastic waitress, great service!

A disappointing experience due to poor service. Took Aunt there for her Birthday which wasn’t acknowledged, even tho it was noted at booking. Waiter was at best indifferent at worst bored and didn’t want to be there. Great location but let down by our service. Sorry

Great service from Hollie who was super friendly and helpful with changes and substitutions.

Anna was very kind and looked after my little girl on her birthday. Fantastic service😀

very attentive waitress Maddie, happy to help with anything we needed! Really great service thank you!

Hollie was super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed even when we had changes to make when ordering

A really enjoyable meal. Very well served by Anna. Many thanks.

Fantastic service and food. Our server, Anna, was absolutely perfect. She couldn't do enough for us.

My birthday today and I had a free meal because I am registered with Ego. Carbonara followed by Tiramisu a perfect birthday meal.

First time tonight at 6:15pm for a table of 6, with my parents and family. A lad called Alex was brilliant, polite and friendly 👏 thanks Alex we will be returning.

Anna was a wonderful server she was very friendly and her service was first class Thank you

Enjoyable family meal, served by the lovely Anna.

had a lovely birthday meal excellent service by the lovely Harriett , food lovely

Harriet looked after us, she was so amazing!

We came herel to celebrate my husband's birthday. The food was perfect. It's always freshly prepared, so it does mean you have to wait a bit longer, but it's worth it in the end. Would recommend.

Excellent food and cocktails. Special thanks to Vika and Tom for their fantastic service.

Expensive for what it was. Service slow. Very noisy

Had an amazing experience, our servers ,hollie ,vika and Harriet were all really amazing made my mom's birthday very special Thank you

Enja was fantastic, she ensured we were comfortably seated, checked in on food and drinks... I had the risotto, which was perfectly cooked. Shame the coffee machine was out of order.

Absolutely stunning meal at Ego last night and our waitress Harriet was so lovely, friendly and made sure we was happy. Lovely experience, thankyou, cant wait to return

My first visit. Definitely will be returning

We were served by Enja and she could not have been more attentive! We felt very looked after, she was a delight!

Fantastic meal and Enja who served us was a delight. Very attentive and such a pleasant manner

Food was delicious and Lyndsey was very attentive and friendly. Thank you for a lovely birthday celebration.

Anna was fantastic! Nothing too much trouble and always friendly and chatty. Many thanks!!

Lovely atmosphere and great food, complimented by Anna’s excellent service. Will be back again.

Great food, lovely atmosphere and Anna was a great host. Highly recommended.

Visited as a large group so food was pre booked. Good variety of food to choose from, something for everyone. Service was excellent. Well spaced courses. Didn’t feel rushed at all. Looking forward to visiting again.

The food is very average. Only dessert are very delicious. If I go back there, it will be for dessert and coffee.

Anna did a fantastic job of looking after us, food was good and well presented. Would go again!

Enja was a lovely waitress. Very attentive and polite all evening. Will definitely be back. Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much to Joe, Natalie, Tom & Anna! Perfect service from Anna, when faced with an issue with my meal resolution straight away and double check back.. thank you for a lovely evening and atmosphere. Nicole xx

Food was bland.no prior on the chicken it was plain chicken.i spoke to waitress who smiled and walked off.tried to explain to manager that my bill was wrong,but he did nothing but try to explain that he didn't understand the logistics of how 2 for one worked and how vat was worked out.he was more interested in seating new customers.so i paid up and left.Been to Egos many times and rated it highly but not anymore

Alex was attentive and calm amidst the busy atmosphere . He was friendly and helpful.

A very well run establishment with a wide variety of excellent Mediterranean food and well trained friendly staff. Worth researching the deals that can be done. Still excellent

Absolutely great food, lovely environment. Only problem was it took a very long time to receive each course and there were a couple of errors that we had to chase up. However, all in all, a very lovely night.

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening spent in ego, the food was delicious (we had mains and desserts). The atmosphere was brilliant with a warm welcome.The service was friendly and efficient, though it was busy, our waitress Abbie was amazing and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be returning in the future, and recommending here to friends and family.

Had a lovely evening at Ego Lichfield, we went with a large group and were served by Anna. We were really well looked after and the food was excellent and Anna’s patience and care with such a large group was brilliant. Look forward to returning!

Good food selection and with a great view over the Cathedral and Minster pool. Been a number of times and the food and service has always been to notch.

Probably the first time in an ego establishment, I've not given a 4-5 star rating. As expected, the food and atmosphere was very 👍 good. However the service and particularly the information relating to the long delay in getting our meals served, was dreadful. There was a number of customers around our table area, experiencing the same delay so something was wrong and needed explaining, sadly this not addresed and the customer experience was below the expected standard for a restaurant of this standard.

Our waitress Anna was lovely. Very helpful with a lovely smile. Nothing too much trouble.

Very very slow service .Food average, starting to go downhill,Not as good as it was on last visit.

Although we had to wait a while for our food to arrive… Anna our waitress was absolutely brilliant! She kept us informed throughout and was very pleasant, accommodating and helpful!

We had a lovely experience eating here yesterday celebrating a birthday. Our waitress was called Enya, I couldn’t fault her enough she was informative, polite and humorous. Nothing was too much trouble! The food was served quickly and also they were good portion sizes! The d cocktails were also lovely.

The place was packed very noisy the food had to go back as one was burnt the other uncooked and soggy. We had waited over an hour for this garbage! It was shocking -we won’t be back and will not recommend

We had a fantastic meal at ego, we were served by the lovely Enya! She was attentive, welcoming and funny! The food was great, I had the chicken supreme and it was supreme. Couldn’t recommend more, thanks enya for making our experience fabulous x

Enja is a great member of staff. Very polite and never felt rushed. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Had a lovely meal at Ego. Steak night. Delicious.

The food was gorgeous. The wait for our food was not very long at all, especially as we had steak, which seems to delay food in other establishments. The staff are hard working and aim to make your visit as enjoyable as possible. The noise of the place can be a little overpowering but expected in an open-plan environment. Will definitely be going back. Cocktails was lovely too. Well done to all the staff at Ego, Lichfield. Your hard work and effort clearly shone through on our visit. Thank you

We ate here as part of a group of 4 adult family unit. The food and service were great. There's quite a small pay & display car park nearby

This was a nice large restaurant, good choice of food, I had spaghetti carbonara but it wasn't as creamy as I like but it was piping hot & good value for money

Great service from Abbie thank you

Lovely food and great service from Anna. Would definitely come again. Thank you Anna!

Not as good as it used to be. Service very slow, portions sizes have gone small. The tiramisu however gets my points.

Lovely meal as always at Ego. Always lovely to get a window seat overlooking the water. Lovely busy atmosphere (but not overly busy). Anna, our waitress was very friendly and attentive and did a great job. Food was nice and with the fixed price menu option and 2 for 1 cocktail offer it was good value for money as well.

Overall, it was a nice meal with the family. But it was just nice. It was a tad expensive for what you get, but overall, it was nice and nothing to complain about.

Friendly efficient service from Anna nothing was too much trouble for her Enjoyable evening

Food average service very slow.

Great lunch, served by the lovely Enja.

We have visited Ego in Lichfield several times and always thoroughly enjoy the food and the atmosphere. The staff have the perfect balance of being friendly without being intrusive. The last couple of visits we have been served by Anna who is informative, friendly and efficient. Yesterday we were ten minutes past our reservation time and the majority of the staff couldn't have been more helpful or empathetic re our satnav malfunction. Looking forward to more visits as we travel up and down the country.

Very nice place with a good atmosphere. We initially got a table in the middle, but when we asked to move to one overlooking the river, there was no problem at all, which was great. However, the service was very poor. We waited 20 minutes before anyone approached us. I was with friends and ordered the starter CHORIZO & HALLOUMI Skewers, and for the main, the MIXED Kebab. My wife ordered GARLIC MUSHROOMS as a starter and KING PRAWN & CHILLI Linguine for her main. After finishing our meal, we again waited 20 minutes before anyone cleared the plates or asked if we wanted anything else to drink, and there weren’t even many people around. It was a clear sign of poor organization. When we got home, my wife started complaining about Abdominal pain and unfortunately, spent most of the night in the toilet . I tried several times to call the restaurant to find out if anyone else had experienced similar issues, but unfortunately, no one answered.🙁😢 The place itself is modern, but the service was poor. My food was okay, but my wife’s experience was definitely not.

First time visiting. Lovely food would definitely be returning. Xx

We had a lovely time on Friday night. Every course was delicious. We all had a steak for main which was so nice. I had peppercorn sauce with mine. Delicious. The waitress was excellent. We hadn't been in a while and had forgotten how good it is there. We'll definitely be returning.

Had a great evening for my daughters 13th. Looked after from beginning to end. Thanks Guys.

Booked a table for a special occasion...booked for 8 people . Pre ordered the food and we still had to wait over an hour for our main courses. Food was ok .

Piri piri hanging kebab no taste and undercooked all food was barely warm when informing waitress all she said was I’ll let chef know wasn’t offer any reduction or even a drink defo not recommend

Very attractive interior overlooking Minster Pool. Spacious with seating for one or two, four and for larger parties. Comprehensive menu and special deals depending on time of day. Staff friendly and attentive. Food I had was good but maybe a bit pricey for what you get. The Pork Duo was very enjoyable. Decent wine list with glass size or bottles at reasonable prices. My only complaint would still be the un-necessary awful background music. It always seems so very noisy inside. You don't need loud music when trying to hold a conversation, and certainly not when you have hearing difficulties! When eating I want something calming, relaxing and quietly in the background so you don't have to shout to be heard. My second visit and I would certainly go again and but take ear plugs if necessary!

Nine of us came for the Celebration Meal. Staff were friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The only downside was we had to wait a bit too long between courses as they were very busy.

Egos Lichfield is one of our favourite restaurants, so that is why l chose for my birthday. My brother and wife came too, I’d been telling him how nice this restaurant was. He was very impressed with the restaurant itself and the beautiful views but the food was something else. We’ve never had a problem with the food before but this time l was embarrassed when l saw my brother’s meal. He had ordered steak and chips from the al la carte. That’s all that came no salad or greenery, he said the steak was very tough and it looked it, the chips were dry. My sister in law had the fish cake and potatoes. She’d requested no tartar for health reasons but we did expect something like a little salad, as fish cakes can be very dry. My paella was so dense, l found it difficult to eat, so left the majority of it. My husband had the hanging chicken, that looked nice and he enjoyed it. I apologised to my brother saying that we had never had a problem and the food was always great. On paying the bill we learnt from the waitress that it was now owned by M&B, then l realised why the food was as it was. Pub food at restaurant prices. Very disappointing as this is the first place my husband and l think of when celebrating anything but it will be a while before we come back. We noticed too that there wasn’t so many people dining there, maybe that's the reason.

Lively atmosphere. Pleasant friendly service. Food good depending on choices. Vegetables paella bit stodgy. Lovely garlic prawns.

Restaurant was extremely busy. We waited 45 minutes for a garlic bread starter. My husband's main course of rump steak was an extremely thin slice of overcooked beef - definitely not medium cooked steak and not worth £21.95 and would not recommend.

Friday lunch in Lichfield, lovely food, atmosphere and friendly staff, highly recommend a visit.

Terrific lunch with wonderful food.

Very badly run restaurant in my opinion with extremely unhelpful staff. We used to frequent here on a regular basis but will not be returning in the future. They do not understand the concept of looking after regular customers.

The food & staff were faultless. Our only slight criticism is the that when sitting in the centre of the restaurant the noise level made conversation more difficult.

Food was great as always. Staff very friendly and attentive

Great place by the river near the Cathedral. Superb menu. Good selection of dishes. All seems fresh and tastes great. Relaxed and plesant atmosphere.

Amazingly friendly staff, good food, excellent service, can't praise highly enough, thanks for looking after us

It's a lovely venue, well decorated, very clean and definitely has a higher market feel to it. A good variety of food choices that caters to most. It is higher priced but the quality of food and portion sizes are worth it. The whole table thoroughly enjoyed both starters and mains, and all plates were empty. Some of the tables are very close together and that did mean that we heard every conversation going on at the next table, and at quite a volume, which meant we then struggled to hear each other on our own table. The only let down was our server, who was a shift supervisor, not sure if she was just having a bad day but she was clearly not happy to be at work (not that any of us ever are but when you work in hospitality you can't really afford to have that attitude at the forefront), she spoke the absolute bear minimum but her tone and attitude came across like she just didn't want to be there and actually that impacts the experience for the customers. We saw other staff around the restaurant who appeared, from a distance, to have a happier demeanor, including the person who served us our drinks.

Decent enough place but rarely do they get the service element spot on . Also I’d recommend you book in advance even if you’re going at a quiet time - we pitched up two weeks ago and they said they weren’t taking walk ins that day !! Bizarrely this was at 3.30 pm with only a handful of tables in use !!

What a lovely elybrestaurant. It was our first time there, parking was easy to find, mind you it was on a Sunday :) We loved the ambiance, the restaurant was very clean and very well arranged, with inviting music welcoming guests in to relax. The food was exceptional, very good choices, very tasty and arrived hot and within a good time. The 2 for 1 cocktail offer was a hit. The dessert menu was so decadent, I wished I could order one of everything :). I wonder if EGO would consider adding a mini selection option to their dessert menu. Overall, wonderful service and experience and we will certainly go back again.

Enjoyed the fish meal that I had and would go back again, others in the group felt that the menu was limited

Slick and delicious is the two words to apply here. The restaurant is run incredibly efficiently, the staff are on the ball and food is out and on your table without you feeling rushed. The food is utterly delicious - the eton mess was orgasmic!! The young lady serving us was friendly, professional, engaging and delightful. We will be going back WITHOUT A DOUBT.

Wonderful restaurant service first class. Atmosphere was very relaxing everyone in that day was having gentle conversation s .The food was delicious and served in a very gentle way . I can't wait to go again soon .

One of our favourite restaurants in our home town. Food was delicious & service was quick. The Moroccan lamb was lovely & my partner thoroughly enjoyed his pan roasted cod supreme.

The food was lovely and the view over Minster Pool equally lovely, service was fast and attentive and good variety on the menu. The only two downsides were that the music was too loud so I felt it clashed with the atmosphere and the garlic bread was a sort of thin crispy pizza base, that was dry and crisp - I’d rather a baguette type style that is actually bread. Despite those two, I would happily go again.
