"I recently dined at Maaya and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. I feel compelled to share my feedback to shed light on the issues I encountered during my visit. First and foremost, the behaviour of the staff was highly unprofessional. I was taken aback by their rudeness and arrogance, which left a sour taste in my mouth from the moment I entered the restaurant. The waitstaff seemed disinterested and dismissive, lacking the basic courtesy one would expect in a dining establishment. It is essential for a restaurant to prioritize customer service, and the behaviour I witnessed did not meet even the most minimal standards. Furthermore, there was a severe mistake with our order. We had ordered eight starters and eight main courses in total, but to our dismay, the staff mistook it for four main courses in total, instead of 4 main courses on each table, and started behaving extremely rudely with the ladies. They were trying to intimidate the ladies into ordering more dishes that what was required. Additionally, the service at Maaya was exceedingly slow. From the moment we sat down, it took an excessive amount of time for the waitstaff to approach our table and take our orders. The entire experience was plagued by long waits, which further exacerbated our dissatisfaction. Due to the aforementioned issues, my companions and I were left with no choice but to cut our visit short, which unfortunately disrupted the planned meeting we had scheduled. As a customer, I had high hopes for Maaya, but the overall experience fell short of even the most basic standards of hospitality. The combination of rude and arrogant staff, the mistake with our main courses, and the consistently late services left me deeply unsatisfied. Dining out should be a pleasurable experience, but unfortunately, this was not the case during my visit to Maaya. I sincerely hope that Maaya takes this feedback constructively and addresses the issues I've highlighted. Improving customer service, ensuring order accuracy, and streamlining the service timings are essential steps to regain the trust and satisfaction of diners. I hope to see positive changes in the future because every customer deserves a pleasant and memorable dining experience."

"Very surreal, we had heard the hype, with someone saying it’s the most popular restaurant in Essex right now, so we were eager to give it ago. Booked through the new iPhone app which was very easy. We booked for a Friday night, at what would have been a popular dining time. On arrival, it’s a bit in the middle of no where, but that no a problem, easy parking. The outside looks pretty smart with the big Dusk sign all lit up. We were met at the door by two doormen/bouncers both extremely friendly. We then walked through to the receiving desk and bought up our reservation, before a very over keen waitress dressed in night club attire whisked is to our seat, on walking to the searing area I was shocked that there were only 3 other tables occupied out of maybe 50-60 tables! It looked so strange and the fake atmosphere was so apparent! The place was teaming with staff and they outnumbered dinners 2-1! We sat down and was immediately offered a chip and dips selection. We then looked at the drinks menu.. now before I go on, yes I saw the notice saying ‘bring your own alcohol’, I have been to other places like this and they still have sold some kind of alcohol. Not this place, it a sniff of it bar 0% mock ups. What on earth are they doing. The waitress was almost proud of the fact there was no booze. But believe me this place needs to sort that and fast as before you read on, they are going to need it. So after ordering a couple of cokes we peruses the menu. All seemed fine and the food that was on offer sounded promising. I ordered a lobster starter and my partner ordered some kebab thingy. When my starter arrived it was accompanied by a glass with co2 tablets creating an atmospheric smoke. The waiter then informed me that it wasn’t edible so don’t pour it on my starter. No sh@t Sherlock. The starter had foam added to the top lots of chopped veg and the lobster had quite a few chewy bits mixed in. Taste- bang average. It was a £14 starter. Not a great start."
