Ss8 - Castle Point

Had a fantastic night at Estuary views with my fiance. Service was quick and food was fresh and delicious. Amount of food for money was great. Plus had a Michael Bublé tribute singer on who was pleasantly good and an added bonus. Plus the wine is the best by far. Will be coming back again. Great date night.

I visited this restaurant for a meal with friends in December 2017 and was really looking forward to it after reading all the good reviews. However I actually can't believe I dined at the same place. The food was at best bland and average, and at worst completely inedible. The garlic mushroom starter was straight from a freezer and rock hard. The prawn linguine was tasteless. My friend had the vegetable soup which was akin to liquid grass, and the roast beef which was completely inedible the Yorkshire was rock solid, the beef was as tough as a boot, and the potatoes appeared to be covered in a thick layer of salt. Dessert was probably the highlight of the meal but to be honest no better than what you could pick up in a supermarket. To make matters worse the service was absolutely shocking. We sat down at 8, starters arrived at 9.10. Nobody came to ask if everything was satisfactory (maybe they knew what our answer would be). Things were thrown down in front of us as if the waiting staff were fed up. Not once were we approached to ask if we wanted any more drinks other than the one served on arrival. One member of our party didn't receive her main until we had all finished, and then her dessert went missing too. There was no approach from management, and nothing by way of a proper apology or an explanation. I definitely cannot recommend this place I seriously struggle to understand how anyone could.

The owner of this restaurant makes a point to personally speak with you during your visit, and the rest of the staff are just as welcoming. The food here is top-notch, possibly the best I've had since moving to Canvey. I highly recommend a visit to this place, and I will definitely be returning.

Always go on Thursday evening in a group of ladies, a few cocktails,lovely steak meal at a brilliant value price I.e. 2xsteak bottle wine for £25. Very nice staff. In process of being updated, so , will be even better soon. Love this place

The food at this restaurant was okay, but unfortunately I received a parking ticket. I had my badge, which would have allowed me to park for free across the road. I was unaware that the small concrete space next to the pub was a paid parking area. Despite forums advising me to ignore it, I now have court costs of £175 for a disappointing night in a mediocre place that I traveled 30 miles to get to. I won't be returning. The parking situation feels like a scam.
