Excellent and home welcoming
I felt that The Maffias restaurant offered a wide range of excellent, fresh dishes. As a food expert i felt welcomed into a home bar/restaurant with friendly staff and thats hard to find in a restaurant these days. As i dined at lunch it was very busy, however it was still a relaxing environment. Try for yourself

DISGUSTING ATTITUDE
I AM SO DISGUSTED WITH THE FRONT OF HOUSE STAFFS ATTITUDE TO MYSELF AND MY FRIENDS YESTERDAY I FELT I MUST RECORD A REVIEW ABOUT THIS RESTAURANT. I BOOKED A TABLE FOR 4 AS A BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION FOR MY HUSBAND, AND I REQUESTED THE LATEST TIME I COULD BOOK FOR A SATURDAY LUNCH. I WAS TOLD 1.45PM SO ARRANGED TO MEET FRIENDS AT THAT TIME. MY FRIENDS ARRIVED ON TIME AND WERE TOLD BY THE FRONT OF HOUSE WAITRESS THAT AS MYSELF AND MY HUSBAND WERE RUNNING A FEW MINUTES LATE THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCOMODATE US. SHE THEN CONTINUED TO MOAN THAT IF A TABLE IS BOOKED FOR 1.45 THEN WE SHOULD BE THERE AT 1.45 AND IF A BANK SHUTS AT 4 THEN IT SHUTS AT 4????? OUR FRIENDS MET US OUTSIDE AT 1.50PM AND SAID THAT THEY FELT THAT WE SHOULD GO ELSEWHERE AS THE WOMANS ATTITUDE WAS RUDE, AND THEY WERE WORRIED THAT IF WE DID EAT THERE WE WOULD GET BAD SERVICE. WE DEBATED WHETHER TO GO, BUT AS WE HAD NOWHERE ELSE BOOKED WE WENT AHEAD AND WENT IN. THE WOMAN SAID AS WE WERE WALKING THROUGH THE DOOR ' I'M SOOOO SORRY BUT YOU ARE FAR TOO LATE.' I ASKED WHAT TIME THEY CLOSED AND SHE AVOIDED ANSWERING THE QUESTION BY SAYING THE FOOD ORDER SHOULD BE IN BY 1.45PM. SO WE LEFT AND SAID WE WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HER RESTAURANT TO ANYONE. MY FRIENDS TRAVELLED FROM COLCHESTER, AND MY HUSBAND AND I TRAVELLED FROM GREAT BROMLEY, AND WERE ONLY 5 MINUTES LATE. THE WOMAN WAS NOT GOING TO ALLOW FOR ANY TRAVEL HOLD UPS, AND IF SHE WANTED THE FOOD ORDER IN BY 1.45PM SHE SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME THE LATEST I COULD BOOK A TABLE WAS 1.30PM. 24 HOURS LATER, AND I AM STILL ANGRY ABOUT HER ATTITUDE AND THE FACT THAT MY HUSBANDS BIRTHDAY MEAL WAS RUINED. SHE CAN OBVIOUSLY AFFORD TO TURN DOWN BUSINESS, ALTHOUGH THERE WERE ONLY 2 OTHERS DINING IN THE RESTAURANT AT THE TIME. IF SHE HAD BOTHERED TO ASK, WE COULD HAVE NOT ORDERED A STARTER, TO MAKE UP THE TIME FOR BEING 5 MINUTES LATE.
