First visit with friends but not the last. Staff could not have been more friendly or helpful, the menu and dishes were explained to us clearly and recommendations made. The food was superb and plenty of it. The place is so authentic I could have been in Portugal. Highly recommended.

First time eating here, and booked on the basis of other good reviews, I was not disappointed!Mum had prawn cocktail to start, which was beautifully presented, and according to her, the best shed ever eaten - High praise indeed! I had pate which was equally well presented and delicious. We both had roast beef for main course which came with all the trimmings and perfectly cooked. The roasties particularly crispy, beef nice and pink, great big Yorkshire pud.The service was exceptional, all the staff so friendly and attentive.I can highly recommend this restaurant and will be pleased to return.

Alebro

Modern European restaurant

Reviewed By davebryant

Dined at Alebro for dinner on Saturday evening. Have been there several times now and always receive great service, nicely chilled white wines and excellent food. Saturday was no exception. Friendly and welcoming management and staff, superb food, nice surroundings and a good choice of background music make for a great meal out. If you are reading these reviews trying to decide whether to book to go to Alebro, go ahead and do it, you will not be disappointed.

The unassuming exterior hides a real foodie heaven for lovers of Southern European food and wine. The nearby free car park just off the A13 helps. We sampled Swordfish steaks cooked simply with green beans and potatoes or saute, Seafood linguine with almost as much seafood as pasta, washed down with a very nice Spanish rose. The portions were so big we had no room for dessert, a great pity. All watched over by the nicest Senora and served nicely by her girls. We want to come again - soon.

Aspera Restaurant

Reviewed By lauraw1967

We have been to Aspera before and will definitely be returning again. 6 of us visited Aspera for my husbands birthday. From the moment we walked in the door, we were greeted and taken straight to our table. The food is excellent and good size portions. The staff are attentive, polite and comical at times (in a good way), making you feel like you are not just another number. Our daughters have bought us a voucher as a present and cannot wait to return.......Dear Customer, thank you for taking your time to write a lovely review of our restaurant, the food and staff. We pride ourselves in making every customer feel special from the moment you walk through the door and that is lovely look forward to seeing you again soon.Kind regards Taz

Birthday dinner with friends. 6 of us, all enjoyed different dishes! Service very good, and made a fuss of when it’s your birthday, lots of singing by the staff! The strawberry daiquiri is delicious! Love their pan fried prawns too! Hubby loves their kleftico dish! Definitely best restaurant in Rayleigh.

Marco's Spanish Tapas Restaurant & Wine Bar

Reviewed By tw0070121

I would like to think that we went there on a bad day for them.Allow I doubt it.Beer was bad.I’m no chef but I could easily beat the food.Not at all authentic.We left most of it.BAD..... that’s a great michael jackson song but not a reflection on a Marcos visit surely. Looking at your reviews you slate everyone and everything so no point wasting time writing a response but remember 1 persons opinion isn’t going to ruin our reputation especially as your a man of few words.
