Marina - Newham
Marina
Description
Nestled by the Thames, this restaurant offers a mixed dining experience where flavors and service vary significantly among patrons. While some commend the excellent dinner deals and delectable dishes like Chicken Biryani and Kofta, others lament small portions, cold food, and inattentive service. Notably, the BYOB policy allows guests to enjoy drinks from nearby shops. A warm atmosphere and a beautiful riverside view add charm, though recent reports of cleanliness and staff responsiveness raise concerns. Overall, it presents a unique opportunity for a meal, especially for those willing to overlook a few shortcomings in hopes of enjoying the culinary delights.

Had a lot of restraunt options tonight but we decided on Marina and *Wow* very friendly service and the food is out of this world. Very accommodating to our group. Loved it! Will visit again.
I was in the area. I fancied a good curry. The resteraunt was quite empty at 6 in the evening. I was offered 2 poppadums with a variety of dips to go with it. Then my main course of chicken tikka masala came. A small bowl of rice and a bowl of curry. There were at most 5 pieces of chicken swimming in too much red sauce. Chicken was cold in the muddle and my plate was cold and the bowl that the curry came in was cold so immediately the food cooled down. I also got a soggy naan bread . I had not started my meal when the waiter came over to ask me if it was OK I told him it was cold.He also cleared away my lime pickle and chopped onions that came with my poppadum without asking and I had to tell him to bring it back. I spoke to the manager when he came in and told him. He swore that everything was hot and fresh cooked. He gave me a discount and I paid £19 including a bottle of still water. although i wasnt bothered to ask him how much the discount was. Very un impressed.
My husband and I came new years day for some quick food. We ordered tikka chicken korma and lamb lababdar. The restaurant was picturesque on the water front, relaxed atmosphere and fast service. The food was great quality the best korma ive ever had (and ive had a few over years! and all at a great price. Highly recommend!
Came on spur of the moment late this evening while on a stroll from the Good Hotel. Amiable, hospitable and very tasty food. Remember to bring your own alcohol,but there is a well stocked Supermarket job st back around the corner
Very very average dinner: frozen samosa, tasteless daal, plain rice heated up in the microwave... they don’t serve wine at all since they don’t have a alcohol license (but they will send you to buy your own bottle of wine at Tesco nearby), smelly glasses... napkins, ice, water for the table arrived on late, when we had already commenced eating... staff don’t speak a good English, which is not a big problem for me since I m not an English native speaker but... as a waiter, it is unacceptable you misunderstand “ice with rice” and viceversa all dinner long... right?! We decided to stay just because we were very hungry and there is no much choice around there. On the top of it: extremely expensive for the quality and quantity of food we had! And no receipt given at the end of the dinner.
