The best restaurants in South East

Fantastic well prepared seafood but pricey.

Always very busy, excellent food & atmosphere, had to park across the road at Bolton's Bench, car park gets very busy, but a great evening celebrating. Highly recommend.

While we visited Maidstone we stopped at Frederic Bistro for a meal and we had an amazing experience. This place has a great location and excellent service. It should be on your list if you are getting to Maidstone. Excellent food, with lots of wines to choose from and drought French beer makes this place perfect for stopping by. I do recommend having a reservation but if you don't try your luck, the staff was very friendly with us and they offered us a table without reservation. I will definitely drop by next time when I visit Maidstone.

Stopped here yesterday whilst travelling, was very very impressed, quality of salad and meat is very high, delicious chicken and staff were very friendly would definitely recommend and come again

Nice breakfast place Beef lasagna was nice Self service for water, cutlery. Pay first

Ate here today for the second time and just thought I'd leave a review. Both times I have eaten here the meals have been outstanding and the staff were very polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Just came for a birthday celebration during a quick one-night stopover in Eastbourne and I can honestly say this is one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The place was packed full, and yet we did not need to wait for anything. The service from Michaela was incredible and the food was unbelievable! I had the chicken & broccoli risotto and it was so creamy and retained it's heat from the first bite to the last!! Between the two of us for 3 courses, I could not believe how reasonable the price was!! Rest assured if you enjoy authentic Italian cuisine served by a family-run establishment YOU NEED TO COME HERE!!!!!!!

I eat a lot of burgers, but Half Man! Half Burger! is probably my favourite. It can get busy and the seats and tables aren't the comfiest, but it doesn't matter because the burgers are brilliant. I would eat here every day if my GP would let me!

Outstanding fresh fish and chips but good other menu choices also available . Proper home made coleslaw. Desserts looked fantastic but we were too full to eat any. Traditional up market fish and chip shop

Delicious food with a South African twist (if you want) served by friendly polite staff (increasingly rare) - meant we had a great Sunday lunch.

We had the most amazing Sunday roast here today. The service was brilliant and the food was delicious - definitely up there with one of the best on the Island. Can’t wait to return!

First time visiting today. Warmly welcomed and shown directly to outer table for 7. Excellent, friendly service from young staff. Sunday roasts all round. Generous portions and all tasted great. One of the better pub roasts I've had. They do a smaller roast which is still a good size. Highly recommended.

Not great. The lamb curry was not amazing. The mango colada was so sweet. Such a lot of sugar.

Amazing rock bar in Canterbury, great live music and brilliant staff

Amazing food as always but let down by some mismanagement at the beginning. We called ahead about an hour and a half earlier to ask if we could have a table for 3 instead of the original 2 and we were told this was fine. However, when we arrived it was clear they had forgotten to alter our booking and had no room for us. They then left us standing at the front of the very small restaurant for 10 minutes before moving us to what we thought was our table. We then began to order our food and were told ‘your table is this way’ as we were apparently taking up another groups table. There was no clear communication and they could do with being more on top of this as it does ruin the experience somewhat. We were on the verge of leaving we felt it was that bad, glad we stayed as we loved the food but it is clear they sometimes clearly overbook themselves as there were several people waiting in the cramped restaurant. I they need to either restructure the booking system or ensure diners are done for when the next cover arrives, not 25 minutes after.
