"Wow! After attending a wildlife talk in the nearby hall, my group decided to treat ourselves with another talk scheduled for the afternoon. We were pleasantly surprised by the hidden gem that is this restaurant. The menu offered a wide variety of options, and we both decided to try the fish bake, which was absolutely delicious. The dish featured cod, salmon, and smoked haddock in a flavorful cheese sauce, accompanied by perfectly cooked fresh vegetables. I enjoyed a decaf latte, while my friend opted for a pint of pale ale. The prices were very reasonable, and we were so impressed that we have already recommended this place to our friends. We plan to return and spend a day exploring Holland, as we are not local to the area."

The food at this restaurant is excellent, however, as noted by a previous reviewer, the menu on their website needs to be updated. The prices in the restaurant are actually higher than what is listed on their website menus. View menu

The restaurant is lovely, the staff are very friendly, and the food is impeccable. We did check the menu online before coming and noticed some discrepancies in prices. There was a £9 difference in the cost of a main course compared to what we ended up paying. The menu prices should be updated on the website. Despite this issue, we had a pleasant evening overall.

Have always had a great time and food at Maffias. Chris and the team are great. Last Saturday night my Dad came over from Ireland and all my sisters from around Europe to celebrate his 90th birthday. He was made feel so Special. The food was wonderful. The staff were brilliant. George is just incredible. She welcomed everyone and was so pleasant and such fun. They’re all looking forward to coming back to Maffias again. Just a brilliant place. View menu

We were strangers to the area looking for something to eat for lunch on a Sunday. Stopped on the off chance and made to feel very welcome. Food was fresh and delicious starters were smoked salmon and crab, both tasty and nicely served. For mains we had one skate wing and one roast pork. All served hot and tasted wonderful, served with plenty of salad for the fish and fresh veggies for the roast. Happy to recommend and if we are in the area again will definitely be back. Thank you and all the friendly staff.

A smallish restaurant in Holland-On-Sea but considering the limited opening hours it offers a tremendously varied menu. We were certainly not disappointed with our choices and thoroughly enjoyed everything on our plates. Granted, we went with relatives who are regulars at Maffias and who the staff knew well but we have no reason to believe the service would have been any less excellent in any other circumstance. Not cheap eats but very good value for money nonetheless. Good choice of beers, too. Recommended.

"We came as a group of 10 for my Mother in Laws 60th birthday, and I must say it was a shambles. Please let me say, that we have been many times prior to this and have had excellent food and fantastic service, so not sure what has happened. Firstly, my Father in Law had to pay a deposit for 12 of us, which was absolutely fine, however, one of those was for a baby who would not have been eating. Unfortunately the mother and baby were unable to attend due to illness, so we lost £10 of the deposit. I would like to Firstly ask, why was we charged for a baby, who was never going to be eating? Secondly, we asked for a pitcher of beer, and when this was served, we were given 3 (out of 4) of the most dirtiest glasses. The beer from previous drinkers was still in the bottom, hence the staining of brown at the bottom of the glass. This is totally unacceptable, and this could actually cause serious health issues to people drinking from them. The waitress brought the first two starters out, prawn cocktails, and dumped it infront of a parson who didn 't even order it, and even after we told her who they were for, just left it there.....would you not have picked this up and actually served it to the correct person? The prawn cocktails came out on a slate and as much as this was very nicely presented, knowing that someone with only the use of one arm had ordered this, it would have been a better option to put this on a plate, so food could be scraped to the edge of the plate and picked up. Rather than a husband having to put his fork up against his wife 's and juggle getting the food on. That 's just a food for thought, incase you have anyone else in this position in the future. We then had the mains served. Out of the 10 orders, were four full racks of ribs. One of these came out as a half. We asked the waitress if this was correct and she said, sorry, she would get the other half out. This came out AFTER the person had finsihed their dinner, which meant they had to take this away in a take away box. Seemed like there was no urgency to correct the error immediately. The burgers, I am sorry to say, are an actual joke. The burgers themselves looked like the small ones you get from Iceland. But yet, are being charged at nearly £14. That was shocking. The chips, were edible, but burnt. And again, please think about putting it on a plate (or atleast asking the person eating it what they would prefer) and not a wooden chopping board. A chopping board is for chopping after all...... We then asked for our cake to come out, so we could sing happy birthday and blow the candles out. We got told yes no problem, but you will be charged £2 per person for eating there at no point had we mentioned we wanted to eat it there and had actually already mentioned this prior to handing over the cake. We opted not to have a dessert as we felt quite deflated to be honest. When the bill came out, I asked if the 3 for 2 drinks had been deducted and she said no, thats only Friday 's . I think you need to make that clearer on your menu, as it just states Monday... Tuesday...etc and the Friday 's. But your drinks deal just says Evenings you need to amend that to specifically say Friday evenings as it is in fact false advertisement on your part. The bill came up, minus the £50 deposit (still baffled why you charged £5 for a baby) and to my surprise a £27 service charge. I asked for this to be removed, as I find this quite shocking to put on any bill. A service charge is not a given, it is a discretion by those who are paying. You cannot expect anyone to pay a service charge if they feel the service has not been up to scratch. As I previously said above, we have been here multiple times before and always had great service and exceptional food. Last night, just was not the same. It is a shame, as we come here for birthdays and we will be thinking twice now, due to the above."
