So I came across Mangetout on instagram a few months ago and was impressed with how the food looked. After reading the reviews and hearing... read more about it some more, We decided to make a day trip if it from London to Southend-on-Sea and see if the food lived up to the hype. Oh boy, the pictures don't do the food justice. Firstly, this is one of the very few places where the food actually looks like the picture!! So my hubby ordered the rib tips for a starter, daughter had the shrimp starter and I had the brisket end starter. We were bowled over by how delicious the starters were. The shrimp was crispy and just plain gorgeous, we've never tasted better, honestly. Just he shrimp alone made the trip worth it. The rib tips and brisket ends were also amazing. So yummy. For our mains, were we glad we'd starved before coming! Hubby had the manwich, massive sandwiches, never seen bigger honestly and he said they were sooo good. Sandwiches came with chips and coleslaw and he demolished the lot to the shock of the waiter lol. My daughter had hickory smoked ribs and that came with corn on the cob, salad, coleslaw and chips. The meat off the rib just literally fell off the bone. It was so delicious and so full of flavour that even she managed to eat most of it. I had the Almighty burger...there are just no words to describe the awesomeness of this beast. It also came with chips and slaw and it was fantastic I ate it all. The portions here are HUGE and we didn't need to eat anything else all day... Apart from dessert coz honestly we'd come all the way, why not have dessert hey? The dessert was amazing, everything was amazing. We were so full at the end, thank God the restaurant is right by the sea and pier so we had a long walk site seeing to get the food down before going back home. We are certainly returning to taste all the other stuff on the menu! YUMMY!!!!!! Service was really good and the music and drinks were excellent read less

We went last night for my sons 18th and really enjoyed it. Our waitress was called Carly. She asked if we were out for a... read more special occasion and we told her it was our sons birthday. She offered my son a free birthday drink which he accepted then she said if we needed any help choosing our meal then to call her over as she can explain anything on the menu. The meal came within about 15 minutes after ordering and was excellent. Then my son chose a dessert and when they bought it out they were singing happy birthday and it had a candle in which was a lovely touch even though my son went a bit red faced. My younger son asked to come here on his birthday so we will definitely be back. X read less
