"So I gave this review 3 stars because I really do want to try and be fair with this review. Read on if you want an honest and fair review when dining as a couple at Sheesh Chigwell. To begin, we arrived dead on the time of our table reservation and was told the table wasn 't ready and to take a seat and have a drink. That was fine as the outdoor seating area is heated, however I don 't know how pleasant this would be during the winter months. The member of security staff at the front door was very polite and greeted us in a professional manner referring to us both as Sir Madame nice. Our table finally became available around 20 minutes past our reservation time. We ventured inside and were taken to the back where it was slightly more quiet, as many of the guests that evening being as though it was a Saturday night) were quite rowdy. We sat down and ordered a bottle of wine which was £50 £12.75 at Morrisons we used Google) and then ordered our food. The lobster spaghetti starter was delicious and my wife 's halloumi was cooked to perfection. No complaints on the starter front. The main course ... well let 's just say the monkfish ain 't worth another £50 considering it was served still swimming in water and what I would describe as 1 skewers worth ' of fish. The rest of the plate was made up of salad... loads and loads of salad. I also ordered. side of truffle cheesy chips which had a sprinkling of cheese on it and were not great for £34. My wife did not enjoy her chicken shish and when I tasted it, I had to agree it wasn 't great. Dessert was on the house thanks to our anniversary which was a nice touch. Service was alright, the waiting staff were pleasant enough but I didn 't feel the need to tip as they didn 't really heighten our experience so to speak or do anything that you wouldn 't expect... plus, let 's have it right they are charging £50 for a bottle of wine which you can get for just over a tenner, so it 's not like they 're not already earning a few quid. The atmosphere was also alright, bit dark in there but the ambience was nice. Overall, it was all a bit meh considering the hype on social media, but I suppose that 's just it .. the hype is what keeps people coming. Not the food or the service. The longer the likes of Joey Essex keeps rocking up and telling everyone on Instagram about it, the longer they will charge you £34 for a side of chips. We won 't be returning simply because it 's massively overpriced for what it is and there are other restaurants of a similar calibre elsewhere in Essex which are more fairly priced and offer a wider range of selection on the menu and better food in general."

Came here after wanting to for a while . I been to a lot of restaurants so I am aware of what’s good or not . Food is mid nothing worth the hype . Local Turkish restaurants have better quality at half the price . The decor is nice and staff are somewhat nice . However for 40 plus pound for a basic dish I wont be back .

I recently visited Sheesh, and I was thoroughly impressed. The management was incredibly welcoming, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere from the moment I arrived. The staff was exceptional, with one particular member, Brooklyn, providing service that was truly 10/10. The overall experience was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and outstanding service. View menu

I highly recommend Sheesh Chigwell, I recently visited for a midweek lunch with friends , the food was amazing , it did not disappoint! I ordered the chicken sheesh which was absolutely delicious, I’m not into desserts but their donuts are absolutely divine. The service was fantastic, staff were extremely helpful and understanding with our dietary requirements and special requests. The ambience is superb and the decor has to be seen to be believed!

I visited Shessh Chigwell for the first time with friends I had heard so much about the restaurant and was excited for my first visit From the minute we arrived The car park valet was so lovely , the beautiful gardens and entrance was breath taking We were greeted at the door by a lovely lady who directed us to the upstairs bar for a drink before we sat as we had arrived early for our table. The first floor bar is just gorgeous so many wonderful things to look at. Once Sat at the table our waiter was really attentive. We explained it was our first visit and he advised us on the menu with our being pushy. Drinks were served promptly, the cocktails are delicious ! Our starters arrived quickly....
