Priding ourselves on our motto ‘Famous for fish’ Smiths Restaurants is a name that has become synonymous with fine dining and quality, attentive service. Our restaurants are located in Ongar Essex (just off the A414) and Wapping in central London (near Tower Bridge). Both restaurants boast an extensive menu of fresh fish that we offer to cook in a variety of ways to suit every palette. We also offer locally sourced meat dishes to accommodate those who prefer their food terra firma. To compliment the quality of our food we have worked closely with well renowned independent wine merchants to ensure we have a selection of wines that are the perfect accompaniment to every meal. The only problem you may have a Smith’s is being spoilt for choice.

    Just an overall lovely experience, staff were friendly and efficient, food was delicious with generous portions, it was clean and we didn’t wait long at all to be seated or served. Its a good idea to book as its a bustling restaurant and noise can be a little moderate (like a lively afternoon pub) but still very relaxing and chill atmosphere. Will be returning very soon. Highly recommend.

    First time to visit and it was great. The food and family service was great. The seabass and fillet steak were brilliant and the kids loved theirs especially the spaghetti. Would definitely visit again, and reasonably priced.

    We had an enjoyable lunch at the 'spirits tasting ' event, the starter was particularly good. We were given a voucher as a gift and had not previously dined at Haywards. We enjoyed the fixed lunch menu and the presentation from Adam representing Essex Spirits. However, we would have preferred a wine tasting experience as we rarely drink spirits.
