Waitresses were very polite although under staffed. Very disappointed in our meals. Starter was overcooked.. the chicken burger was burnt although the chips were great.. the coleslaw mayonnaise and onion rings were cheap quality. Dessert was delicious.. best part of our meal. Unfortunately we wouldn’t reccomend or come back. The restaurant itself is run down.. windows needed a clean at our sea view.. toilets were disgusting.. I walked in and walked out.. I couldn’t use the toilets.

Under staffed… limited dishes on the menu as they had ran out of so may dishes at only 6.30pm.. meal was over priced for not great quality ingredients. Over cooked food.. the chicken burger was burnt.. also the table next to us had the same problem. The restaurant itself was run down.. sea view was limited.. the windows weren’t even clean. Waitress was super friendly.. kept apologising.. but like we said this wasn’t her fault. Wouldn’t reccomend to anyone or come back.. very disappointing visit

first time eating here and defo will not be going back it was awful.went for my grandsons 16th birthday meal.No atmosphere the place look dirty awful decor.Very small menu but when we went to order they had not got alot of things which was off putting from the start which then i wish we said we have changed our minds and should have walked out there and then.Mine and my daughters chicken burger meals were burnt tasted disgusting we didnt eat it.the couple that sat behind us had chicken burgers too and they complained theres was burnt too.The only good thing about the place was our lovely waitress she was really lovely and she didnt charge us for our burger meals and couldnt apologise enough bless her.And £27 for half a lobster was awful there was hardley any meat inside to pricey for what you get.

I can categorically state that This so called “Restaurant “ is running on borrowed time! First and foremost let me say I am not the first to say what I’m going to say…. I’m just more blunt and to the point than nicer people have ha ha. Good points first… The waitress was utterly lovely and I instantly realised she was well versed in the complaints that came!. Oh and the chips were really good. Bad bad bad points… The restaurant is dirty inside and the seats ( at least upstairs) are atrocious…. Worn to tatters and would be great to use on Nov 5th for better use. The interior decor is more depressing than Kier Starmer. The windows are filthy. Anyway the food…. We both decided on half a lobster each as a treat (£27 with chips and salad each) well it was appalling…. I’ve had whole lobster from Aldi for a tenner which when cut in half had double the meat content of these Prawns!! Weirdly the meat had been removed and put back in the shell… I really think they steal some of the meat from each one ( maybe the chef was hungry) anyway it was tasteless and more than disappointing so much so that I said to my partner that I needed a burger on the side! ( I wouldn’t have bought it at that place though) So we had a word with the waitress and she told us in not so many words that this was an increasing problem that their supplier was sending smaller lobsters….. The issue is my friends the restaurant isn’t sending smaller prices to the punters are they?! Oh and the salad was three lettuce leaves from a bag. She went on to offer us either a dessert or another drink on the house ( bet she does this a few times a night) so I had the cheese board to help fight my malnutrition whilst my partner decided to drown her sorrows with a large glass of Chardonnay… nothing new there I thought ha ha The cheese was good….. We won’t ever be going back.

This is the first time and last I try to go to a good restaurant once a week I had lobster and also my partner it was so small for £27 each the chips were greasy also the white bait was greasy I would advise anyone who is going to Felixstowe to advise anyone to walk past also the couple next to us could not eat their food but said they would not complain as they were English

Been to Felixstowe many many times over the years and have never been to the steak and lobster co here until tonight, well what can I say about it, It was amazing, the rump steak with half lobster was amazing, the rump was cooked to perfection and perfectly complimented with the lobster, the cheesecake was amazing too , all the staff were friendly and polite and happy nothing was too much problem. Would 100% recommend the steak and lobster co

Went here for our first date night since having our son and we couldn’t have picked a more perfect place! As soon as we walked in we were welcomed warmly and ask where we would prefer to sit, the staff were very knowledgeable about everything on the menu. The food itself was absolutely amazing. My partner and I both had steak and it was cooked absolutely perfectly to our preference. I would highly recommend eating here!! We can’t wait to go back, reasonably priced also and the portions are amazing, we left feeling very full and could only eat the main. The food was presented amazingly! We will 100% be back with our family, I’ve found my new favourite restaurant!!

We came here without a pre booked table after being let down by another restaurant! Everyone at this restaurant was amazing to us. Wonderful customer service & attentiveness. The food was excellent. Possibly the best fish & chip I’ve ever eaten! The lobster bon-bons were delicious too! Thanks again for looking after my family and myself at such short notice & having a table available for us. We had a wonderful dinner. See you again.

Went for a rare child free lunch but was quite disappointed with the meal. Ordered ‘heritage tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella’ to start with. Nothing about the tomatoes were heritage, they had less taste than simple salad tomatoes from a supermarket. Steak was ok but over cooked and very salty. Chunky chips were really good and a good sized portion of them. Waitresses were nice but only two on and definitely needed more. The decor is updated and sticky. Think it could be really good but just wasn’t.

Where do I start was ment to be a lovely anniversary meal with friends and it was ruined 😕 sitting upstairs was really hot 1 door open with a fan above it ( not really air conditioning windows didn't open) Took our order and received our drinks hubby had to ask for his pint to be topped up ciders were warm and they had no ice ( machine broken) then suddenly 8 pieces of ice was brought to us. Starters came and was eaten within 5 minutes then we waited and waited and waited nobody came to ask us if we would like more drinks far to busy for the amount of staff after an hour our expectations were shattered and we had had enough so be said we weren't prepared to wait any longer paid for our starters and 1 drink and left very disappointed don't think we would return. Should be 1 waitress for a table saw 3 different ones poor people on opposite table never even got there Starters they brought there main course out after waiting over an hour List our appetite after that and our friends had fish and chips from next door

The inside of restaurant looked a bit dismal .dark wood tables.cheap cutlery. There were not many customers yet it took a while for our mains to come. When they arrived,very disappointing.The steak was overdone.certainly not medium.it was really chewy,a dry texture.Also really over seasoned and salty. The waitress did not come over to ask “ how is your meal”so did not get a chance and after such a wait decided to eat up and leave. There was only 1 waitress working because they only had 8 booked in !! Do they not get walk ins. ? 1 waitress 1 chef not a good combination very disappointing

Sunday lunch excellent as always and the tiramisu was superb. Staff were really stretched as it was a very busy day with customers both inside, upstairs, outside and on the green but, although they needed additional help, they coped admirably ensuring all customers received their undivided attention.

We had a lovely meal, staff very friendly and helpful, would recommend booking but you can just walk up,is in a very nice location and you can sit up or downstairs or even outside. If you want a great steak or lobster then this is the place to go when in Felixstowe and we definitely will when we next visit. 5*****

6 of us for a 50th birthday meal. Venue knew this as had been very helpful with decorating table etc. beforehand. Had to wait 20mins for our 1st drinks (had to go downstairs to remind them), waited ages for more drinks when our final guest arrived, took far too long to take our food order, they ran out of Prosecco then miraculously found some when we complained (you are 8mins walk from Lidl so you never need to run out of most things), ran out of ingredients for Porn Star Martinis so one of us offered to run to a shop to get what they needed (not entirely joking). W sat looking at our dirty plates for too long & when the bill came a bottle of wine & 2 cocktails that had been paid for separately had been added on. Our friend offered to show her receipt to prove this & was told no need. Restaurant was fairly busy but not rammed so no excuse for such poor service. It really spoilt our friend's special evening. Huge compliments to the kitchen team as the food was really good. We were told by our waiter that something would be negotiated at bill time such as free desserts but we weren't offered them. 10% had been taken off the bill but as that would have been an optional service charge figure, no real recompense was given. We will not be going back any time soon.

After hearing mixed reviews of this place we thought we’d give it a go ourselves with him loving steak and me loving seafood seemed like the perfect place…. And we were right! The staff were faultless, the food was divine. We were asked for drinks quickly, our starters came quicker than I expected. Our steaks were cooked to perfection perfectly seasoned and very plentiful plates! Nice side salad and dressing. Sauces were amazing I had the red wine and shallot (highly recommend) Particularly the staff, the service made this place the two lovely ladies we had fuss round us really made our night perfect . The only thing I took a star off for was the lighting. It wasn’t a selling point for the food but, the food and service overtook that anyways . OH AND THE TRUFFLE FRIES!!!!!!

Visited last night with my family for my birthday treat. Greeted nicely and were seated upstairs with the sea view which was lovely and nice that they had been able to accommodate our request of being sat in the window. But, that maybe backfired slightly as was really cold upstairs and 2 of us had to keep coats on all evening. The girls serving were lovely and polite and the starters were delivered quickly and they were really nice. Which leads me into our mains. My partner had a full lobster with chips, but seems the only option was chips. (But, to be fair they were actually delicious and the best part of all our meals) The lobster was really small and tasteless and no crackers or implements were given to crack the claws and legs which meant attempting to break into them with a knife and fork, which for a specialist restaurant, we felt was a bit odd to be honest. In addition I had the surf and turf and my lobster tail at £19 was twice the size of the full lobster at £39. We had also requested a plain side portion of prawns. These turned up in a bowl covered in a sauce. One was eaten and to be honest it was like eating a rubber and they really weren't nice at all. When mentioned to the lady she was polite and apologised and these were removed from the bill.... Which leads me onto the bill. This was handed over and rather than leaving it with us for a few minutes she just stood there with her card machine poised giving us no time to check it over.....we then advised we were paying cash and she further stood there watching me count out the money, which is just rude. All in all, it was an ok meal - would we return now, No. would we recommend to anyone, unfortunately not. It's expensive as it's says it's specialist restaurant but it's really not in my opinion, not worth paying extra for sadly.

Visited on Saturday 27th Jan 2024 as a pre show get together. Was promptly welcome. Made an initial drinks order only to find the staff wandered off and not return. Was then seated and the advised we'd have to wait for menus as there wasn't enough for all tables (At this stage the venue was half empty) Ended up having to find menu online as no one returned). Took another 40 minutes for drinks to arrive and food order to arrive. Food order arrived promptly and with exception to the everything else the quality of the food was outstanding (Allparties having various steaks). Have been offered and requested condiments 3 times never to turn up so gave up with that request. There was a common theme throughout the duration of our visit that every table on the upper floor were complaining about terrible/lack of service. Staff were completely disorganised and lacked any waiting type skills. A number of tables left due to the terrible level of service. Prices are reasonable and I can highly recommend the food but you have to accept that your visit will be lacking on the customer service side. Top tip...Download their menu prior to your visit.

I've not put a review before as I thought we would give it one more chance but unfortunately, we won't be returning, this is now the 3rd time something is wrong. We visited on friday, for daughters birthday her choice as she loves lobster. Lobster reduced to just tail for more money than before. Steak over cooked under cooked. Burgers were way over cooked, struggled to cut with a steak knife didn't eat them. The whole experience was a let down. I would probably focus on what the restaurant is called instead of trying to add different things in but can't get a steak correct. Unfortunately we weren't the only ones complaining. 4 other tables were also. The waitress we had was lovely and friendly wasn't her fault but she kept apologising. Just disappointing when your really looking forward to something to be such a let down. We won't be returning again. One to many times now

Both ordered lobster. The Thermidor sauce was watery and pretty tasteless. The lobsters were super undersized and the meat weirdly had been taken out of the lobster, chopped up and returned. We were told our drinks would be on the house as a group booking was coming in so we had to vacate our tables within 2 hours. The bill, when it did come after being asked twice about what we had consumed, came with the drinks included. It was rather like a faulty towers experience although the waitresses were polite. The tables were then removed upstairs for the party whilst we were finishing much to our amusement (as we decided to see the funny side). Won’t be returning, ever!

Just been for a special meal with my partner to celebrate her birthday absolutely ruined , we had steak and lobster both worse than cheap off road pub . No taste to quality , left us with ruined evening in regard of food taste . Starters were brilliant but probably frozen so all they had to do is defrost and put on plate . Staff didn’t know how to handle situation so had to speak to manager over phone . Stood there for 40 minutes while they were figuring out what do to . We ended up paying the bill with removed just steak which I insist to pay . We didn’t wanted money back we wanted a good quality food . Consider this is restaurant that is called Steak and Lobster they should have those two dishes outstanding as they don’t have any other regardless …

The place was almost empty and cold. The waitress was cheery and helpful. The menu was a platitudinous profusion of pretentiousness. Every item was hyped to the max. If you over-praise you also have to over-deliver. Unfortunately this was not the case. Even the food presentation was pretentious. The steaks were average and not exceptional. Even though the bill was fair the over-hyping inevitably meant disappointment. Definitely not as good as it was the last time we visited over a year ago.

Should be called Steak and NO Lobster!!! We have been to the restaurant many times before and travel over 30mins to get there, however for the 2nd time in a row there was no Lobster! We called and booked earlier in the day and no one mentioned that there would be no Lobster and we had no call to say otherwise. We ordered garlic bread for my son as a starter and there was zero garlic on the buttered, slightly toasted bread. I went for fish and chips and looked like I was given a child's portion due to the size of the fish. My wife went for roast Turkey and there was no potatoes!!! How can they call it a "traditional" roast without potatoes? Service wasn't great either. As you can probably expect from my review, we will not be returning to the restaurant again. Not sure what has happened but they need to have a hard look at their service and offerings.

I went here with a group of 7 of us for my birthday and we were seated in the VIP area, which was a lovely touch, felt very private and perfect for the occasion. We were greeted with the most welcoming service, which carried on throughout the whole time there. We were gutted to know there was unfortunately no lobster that day as there had been floods, which we all understood. Despite this, and my 7 year old cousin being more upset than me about the lobster situation, the food was absolutely incredible. I had the lobster bon bons to start, they were not what I expected, but still amazing. Then for mains I got a steak cooked medium rare, and it was cooked to perfection, with some of maybe the nicest garlic prawns I have ever had. We do plan on going back to try the lobster next time as I'm sure it will be as good as the food was first time.

I visited this restaurant last year and had a lovely experience. Therefore I decided to re book for a family meal in November 2023. Sadly it was extremely disappointing. We had a sharing starter and were given no plates. The vodka and coke was watery. We then went on to have a roast dinner, the pigs in blankets were burnt, the Carrots were inedible and the roast potatoes were rock hard. Really, really disappointing. We raised this to staff and were given 25% off however this didn't make up for such a poor experience

We sat outside, we waited 10 minutes, my wife went back in to ask for some menus, after another 10 minutes a girl came out with the bill for the table next to ours apologizing for the delay then went back in. I can't comment on the food because we decided to run at that point, but it better be the best lobsters ever at those prices as that clearly didn't include catering.

Surprisingly good food, we almost didn't stay to eat because the restaurant was quite stuffy and a bit dark. Service was extremely attentive and the food was outstanding. Really needed a window opened or air conditioning because the stuffiness was the only negative on what was an almost perfect experience. We ate as a family of three, half lobster thermidor, salmon pasta and hallumi burger. All of which were sensational, in particular the burger which could of easily been average, they had taken the time to toast the bun slightly and add some delicious sauces in perfect amounts to the burger. We will go again if in the area

Looking for somewhere to enjoy a good Sunday Lunch and, following recomendations from friends, we tried Steak Lobster & Co on Felixstowe's seafront. We were not disappointed. Amazingly the restaurant was not as busy as we expected which is sad because, as we found, the service is friendly, the food is excellent and the price is reasonable for the quality you get. My pal ordered Fish & Chips which looked really good and, he said, tasted good too. I had the Sunday Roast Beef option which was just right, decent slices of nicely cooked beef over a selection of slightly al dente vegitables and good roasted potatoes. The gravy was excellent and there was an option to order more gravy if you needed it. Thank you to the Steak Lobster Co team for a super Sunday lunch.

We felt the restaurant, although a little dark, had a nice, comfy atmosphere. We decided to treat ourselves and have the half lobster with garlic butter , which came with a salad and the best chips we’ve had in ages – just the right amount...

We went here for a meal after our wedding ceremony of 11 people. The staff were amazing that allowed us to decorate etc. They really made it a special meal for us and went the extra mile by being very accommodating. The food was also amazing and very reasonably priced. We will definitely be returning. Thank you.

Sunday lunch meat was tough...well presented but lacked quality. Perhaps should have stuck to the steak which I'm told is good.

Food was OK - Nothing special and certainly did not live up to expectations based on previous reviews.

Took some friends last night for a meal, they’d not been before. The food was lovely but unfortunately the service left a lot to be desired. Not sure if we’ll be going back which is a shame as we’ve been so many times in the past, it was always one of our favourites, and been completely satisfied.

WORST EVER. We have been to some lovely restaurants in our time, but this one was bad. Placed looked very inviting and that's it. Service was bad. Ordered the Half Lobster it was terrible. Went to pay the bill and tried to over charge us,...

Bit disappointing tbh. Seabass was lovely, as was the fillet steak. Rump steak should've been medium, but was well done and some parts were chewy. Asked for lamb to be more pink than standard, but it wasn't, tasted good, but just not cooked as requested. Children's chicken nuggets were hard on the outside, there was salt on the chips, and black pepper on the peas. Anyone with children would know they shouldn't have salt and pepper added to anything. Waitresses were friendly but very busy, so we did have to wait quite a bit. Maybe it was just a one off/bad night, but imo was overpriced and not great. Doubt we will go again

The food was great, staff were attentive but didn't hover (so had a good balance of being there when needed but not hovering over you) I and i thought it was good value for money

Food was fantastic, service was good, a tad slow, but two new staff on their own did well. Didn't see a manager on duty. We had Rump, Sirloin & the stuffed chicken, all cooked to perfection - compliments to the chef on a lovely meal.

The Steak was the best I have ever tasted. It was beautifully cooked and seasoned, well done. The Peppercorn sauce was delicious. I had the Passionfruit Mousse for dessert and it was beautiful and light, which was perfect after a Steak. We were downstairs, and I would definitely recommend you sit upstairs. Upstairs is less chaotic, and you'll get a great view of the sea. I would recommend to eat here, the next time I fancy a steak will definitely come back.
