The Aviary Hornchurch - (Near , london)

5 /5 Georgina Cane: This was our second time at this restaurant and both times my partner and I were blown away with the quality of food and service. A special shoutout to Kacy and Tim, they were so friendly and personable, it really made the experience. Already looking forward to coming back x

5 /5 Sophie Tyndall: Best meal we’ve had in Hornchurch! Incredible food, and amazing service, they even gave my husband a card to wish him a happy birthday, what a lovely touch. Cocktails were delicious, and a really friendly atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

3 /5 Veronika Zaman: Based on the amazing reviews and friends’ recommendations we chose this place for our lunch. We all love mediterranean food and seafood/fish. The squid starter was nice just a bit spicy for our son, we wondered why as there was no chilli or cayenne mentioned on the menu only pepper and paprika so we did not think it will be spicy. Bread and dips starter was OK. The best thing on the plate was garlic and herb oil that was superb but the hummus was a bit grainy and not a lot of flavour and whipped feta was a bit solid not very spreadable or dippable. The worst thing on the plate we all agreed was the bread… toasted baguette but only one side… found that very strange. Would have loved some fresh baked sourdough baguette instead or lightly grilled flat bread. My husband ordered mushroom risotto that came undercooked you could feel the crunch of the rice in the middle they were very kind and cook it more for him but he did not enjoy it. The portion was massive. I had seafood linguine that is one of my favourite dishes but was very disappointed. The seafood was OK but there was just too much pasta on the plate barely covered in sauce that had zero taste and no seasoning. The chef also put chillies which were not mentioned on the menu… my son could not eat that pasta either as was too spicy. That dish is £22 and was the worst and most expensive seafood linguine I have ever eaten. The service was good, the young man was very kind and helpful and apologetic and thank you to the European waitress she was great too. I think chef needs to know his menu better and get some training in Mediterranean food as clearly he is not from that part of world… we will not be visiting again.

5 /5 Lloyd Stevens: Another fabulous visit to The Aviary last night and once again the food and service was excellent. You are always guaranteed a friendly welcome from Coli and the team which is just what’s required when you visit a local restaurant. The food I would have to say since the two years we’ve been coming is probably the best to date so congratulations to chef Tinashe and his team. To start we enjoyed the Mussels and the King Prawn Saganaki. We followed these with the Prawn and Chorizo Linguine and the heavenly Rigatoni Lamb Ragu. I enjoyed a fabulous Pistachio Cheesecake to finish. Thank You Coli and all your team for a great evening and look forward to seeing you all again very soon.
