"We hosted my dads 80th family meal (27 people) at Malaya and we wasn’t disappointed. Leading up to the evening the manager could not of been more helpful in helping to organise and this continued as soon as we arrived. The food was fantastic with the added comfort of being asked how mild or spicy you would like your meal prepared. The beef rendang is not to me missed."

"Have had takeaway from here both and it’s been pretty good, so decided to try the all you can eat buffet on a Sunday. There are 2 hour time slots, we went for the 2pm-4pm time slot. We were one of the last tables to arrive in that time slot meaning our orders were on of the last. Drinks took a long time and we had to ask for them twice. Starters were served fairly quickly but we ordered our mains after our starters were finished, we probably didn’t get our mains until 3:30pm at which some dishes were missing and they had to cook those. It got to just before 4pm and we were being rushed out as the next timeslot were arriving. No time to order anymore even though it’s as much as you like. The timeslots don’t work, it’s no good having everyone turn up at the same time, it needs to be spread over time. There were equally other frustrated faces in the restaurant at how long the food was taking, the food quality was not great either. Will not be returning based on that."

"My first visit to this restaurant was on a Saturday night. I had heard many good reviews about the food, and the fact that we had to book in advance was a good sign. I can say that I was not disappointed. We were welcomed at the entrance by a beautiful woman named Caroline, and our first impression was positive. Our waiter was also very helpful and attentive. The food was amazing. The menu wasn't very large, but there were plenty of choices. I decided on the chili squid starter, which was delicious. They also gave us free flatbread, which was a nice touch. For my main course, I ordered the mixed shish, which was cooked perfectly. The lamb was incredibly tender. Even though I couldn't finish my meal, I had to try the peanut butter cheesecake. Everything was great, no complaints at all. And the best part was the pornstar martini. If you enjoy The Fat Turk in Brentwood, you will love this place even more. I plan to go back for lunch on Friday."

"Tonight was particularly special as it was Amanda's and my first dining experience with our grandson Reggie, along with Ronnie and Ellie. Although Reggie is only 3 weeks old and may not understand where he was tonight, it reminded me of when my father took me out for my first family restaurant experience over 50 years ago. It's a precious thing to pass on those cherished memories so that one day, Reggie can write about his experiences taking his own family out to eat. God bless us all."

Howard's Fish And Grill

"Howard’s are simply the best fish and chips in the area by far. Even though there are two others on the same road, it’s Howard’s that always has the queues and it’s easy to see why. Their chips, especially, are outstanding cooked in an oil that leaves the chips slightly crispy and clean rather than greasy and oily. The taste is phenomenal. Their fish is similarly generously sized and tastes amazing. I tried the grilled chicken on this occasion and it really was half a chicken, cooked beautifully. Howard’s isn’t the cheapest (a medium cod will cost you £9) but it’s a rare treat and worth waiting for."
