The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in South East

Lovely set up , looks inviting and warm cosy , seemed a bit soulless though , anyways we had roast beef I’ve been a few times in the past and enjoyed the roasts every time so I thought hey good spot great food let’s do it ! Stops there great spot food was rubbish tbh , the roast beef had little and no taste the gravy no taste the veg well you can’t get that wrong so it was a pass , the Yorkshires were spot on but the roast potatoes were probably the worst I’ve ever eaten, awful , tbh I can make them better using my air fryer really dissatisfied with them to the point I told the waiter politely how bad they were , they looked dried out the outside was hard as hell with no colour and the inside was like a husk ! So disappointing ! I will try it again in a few months to see if there a change if there’s not I will take my business elsewhere , oh staff were polite and friendly just a shame about the roast ! I feel hard done by and had better from a Toby carvery not what I expected at all !

Absolutely disgusting, nothing was edible, would put zero if possible. Kebab was pale, uncooked and soggy and for a weird reason covered in a slimy coleslaw which wasn’t stated in the menu. Salad was weird tasting, bland and dry along with being covered in that ghastly and sickly coleslaw. The chips were soggy, soft and DRENCHED in mayo. I also got peri chicken that was again, foul and unpalatable, tasted rubbish and couldn’t trust it after they messed up everything else. Only “good” things was the can of Fanta and the fact I ordered on Uber eats so didn’t have to leave my house.

The kebab it self was good. Nice-looking meat and so forth. But it arrived absolutely stone cold.

Its CLOSED - GONE Disappointing because we'd only gone to Gravesend to have a meal in Riva☹️☹️

I’ve been multiple times. I love the bolognese pizza. Me and mum went with family after our confirmation. I have had it twice once I realised that it was there and I loved it every time! Robert is really nice. I came in today out of the blue to ask a few questions for my assignment and he went above and beyond! I showed him the assignment and he asked for my email address and took the ball and rolled with it.

It was Fathers' Day and we were 7 people booked later in the afternoon. The table was ready on time, the choice on the menu was great, the service was impeccable and the food was tasty. Brilliantly done.

Poor service, hubby tables, overcooked food…. Cannot believe how much this place has changed, used to be amazing. Had pizza and coffee, really not great, did complain but staff were not interested in our feedback……

Very cute and cozy place. Plenty of food choices on their menu. Service was also great and the drinks were tasty. Every time I visit Cobham I go to Coppa as it has always been a great experience.

After a challenging weekend in the New Forest, (not the Forest’s fault) we decided to try and salvage something by having a posh afternoon tea at Burley Manor before returning home. We rang and booked the day before as wifey is both vegetarian and GF, and we wanted to give them a fighting chance. I wish we hadn’t bothered. Let’s start with the parking - there isn’t any if your vehicle is bigger than a small family gadabout. We were in our motorhome, and ended up parking in a field that was open for a separate event. Burley Manor assured us this was fine, and that neither gate (big or small) would be locked. You guessed it - wrong , but we squeezed out thanks to wifey’s skilful driving and steely nerve. Then let’s talk about the perfectly coiffed member of staff who seated us, took our drinks order, sent somebody else over with them, then ignored us for nigh on 45 mins. Finally our afternoon tea arrived and was placed by a disdainful waiter, who when he was confused about who’s was who’s and I pointed out the ramifications of getting it wrong snapped, ‘well I didn’t take the order, did I?’ The food itself was fine, just fine, not excellent or amazing, and certainly not worth £61! When we challenged our disdainful waiter on the horrific wait, he was more than happy to throw his colleagues under the bus, saying that his previous establishment had been much more professional! His excuse was that they had had been overbooked for lunch and had several afternoon tea bookings. They had our phone number, if they couldn’t handle the number of guests, they shouldn’t have taken the booking, or they should have cancelled us. To be honest, the nice man who had accidentally locked us in the field, on his Penny farthing and talked about deer and pigs, but reassured us we would easily get Buzzy the motorhome out was the highlight of the whole debacle, and he didn’t work for Burley Manor!

I can honestly say this was the worst experience I have ever had in terms of food and customer service. I attended on a Thursday evening in December with work colleagues for our Christmas party. We paid £40 a head so although I recognise the food limitations of large parties, I expected a certain standard for this price. Firstly the food. Starters were luke warm. You could stand a spoon up in my oily soup. Turkey was full of gristle. Cheesecake was a strange texture and inedible. Worse than that though, a vegetarian in our group was told then had run out of her pre ordered option. As an alternative she was given a plate of potatoes and carrots. They had no vegetarian gravy. Someone else in the group was a vegan and despite asking for options in advance, was not given a reply. What she was given on the night was really poor. We faked to speak to the manager. He declined initially. Eventually he agreed to talk to us but wouldn’t come to the table to see the problem. He names his event manager and blamed it on her. She wasn’t there to defend herself. He then blamed an agency chef. When my colleague said the experience did not make us want to stay and spend even more money to which he replied ‘bye then. You lot just want free drinks’. So rude. We stayed as there was nowhere else nearby to go. About 20 minutes from the end the waiting staff appeared with a few bottles of cheap wine. The waiting staff I have to say were polite and apologetic. I felt really sorry for them as their manager did nothing to support them. I will never set foot in that place again. It was so poor I was almost speechless. Worst food and customer service I have e we had. It was like fawlty towers.

This restaurant is amazing! Visited with friends this evening and we were delighted with our dinners , desserts and drinks. The quality of food and portion sizes were generous. The ambience is beautiful and relaxing. The staff were fantastic, professional, genuine, kind and efficient. A big thank you to the staff.

This was a birthday present from a family member . We had a safari tour and Sunday lunch experience booked . The restaurant was very nice as was the meal. Great staff seeing to all your needs and the service was first class .

Tan triste de ver la calle New Inn Hall cerrada, pero está bien en la calle Broad, pero sin fuego. El personal sigue siendo amable y acogedor.

Superb experience - both food and service. The ambience of the place was great too - warm, bright and spacious. We were brilliantly looked after by Erin and her colleagues who recommended dishes and made sure we weren’t kept waiting. The food was great. We had two nibbles to start things off - padron peppers and pigs in blankets. I had a Flash steak and salad for my main and Taz had a plant burger. The potions are healthy which was great. I somehow managed a bread and butter pudding with spiced custard for dessert that topped off an excellent culinary experience. We will definitely return.

Impromptu mid week lunch and so glad we went to The Fox. Excellent food and service with the added bonus of view out to sea. We chose Tapas, squid, chilli garlic prawns, cheese and ham croquettes and Serrano ham, fig and walnut bruschetta. Ordered mozzarella and garlic bread that was yummy too. Pudding, lemon posset with fruit. Can’t fault the food at all. Service with a smile. Really unexpected quality for the cost. Can’t recommend enough. 🦊 ❤️
