"Here is a second review, a year after my wife wrote the first one after our first visit on June 9, 2023 (review by Ellen). We had already promised in 2023 that we would come back again. Now a year later we were on holiday in the UK again. On the way back to NL via Harwich, I tried to make a reservation 5 days in advance, but it turned out that they were full. After our explanation, they managed to accommodate us on June 7, 2024. And once again eating here was a wonderful and fantastic experience. We had already visited several Asian/Thai restaurants in 3 weeks in the UK (and last year in the Netherlands), but nowhere was Thai food this good. So good and freshly prepared and deliciously flavoured. And also top service. This really is a top restaurant that deserves the full 5 stars! We will definitely come again on our next visit to the UK."

"This Sunday Roast is a must-try and should definitely be on your bucket list. It is one of the best we have had in Suffolk, and both adults and children loved it. The food, service, and atmosphere all receive a rating of 5. We highly recommend trying the Sunday Roast when you visit this restaurant."

"Visited the blue naan today with my husband, we received a warm and friendly greeting from Johnny and seated straight away. Restaurant is decorated in a modern and contemporary fashion . Seating is very comfortable with lots of space between tables. We had the Sunday special buffet, there is a good range of starters, main and sides to choose from, we were offered a mixed plate of starters, which saved us having to choose, service was very prompt, good choice of starters, we were offered more starters if we wanted. Good choice of mains, from mild to very hot. I ordered lamb Jalfrezi and chicken korma, both were delicious, hubby had chicken vindaloo, he likes it hot, rice was nicely cooked and naan bread was light and fluffy. We were offered extra dishes if we wanted. Great , friendly service from all the staff, nothing was too much trouble. We will be returning very soon."

"We had a family reunion in Harwich and decided to go to the wine bar as it was always a lovely place to eat. What a disappointment. As soon as we walked in a waitress announced that we couldn’t all have a roast as there weren’t enough and was asking what we wanted before some of us had even sat down. Once meals were ordered we were told lots of other dishes were also unavailable. The meals arrived fairly promptly but were dire-the roast beef was grey. We then wanted to order desserts but couldn’t as the kitchen had closed. Overall, we felt very unwelcome and the staff were verging on hostile after a clearly busy day. It’s such a shame that a long-established Harwich eatery has gone down hill."

"Usually have really good fish and chips here, but.... Closing time stated as 2.30. Arrived about 2.05pm, and was turned away as chef was 'closing '!! Hmm why say you shut at 2.30 when it 's really more like 2.07?! So we went to the other one Fish Dish, open all day, and very good! Turning people away because you 're closing earlier than stated, is unwelcoming and unprofessional! There are othet cafe/restaurants in Felixstowe!"
