Messy Chef Southsea - (Near Isle of Wight, South East)

5 /5 TheReviewDude: Found this place online which had great reviews so thought Id give it ago. It was a quiet Wednesday evening and the place was quiet. The guy serving was also cooking the food so he was back and forth but really friendly and happy to see me. I ordered the classic messy burger and it was honestly one of the best smashed burgers Ive had, and Ive had a few. The bun was toasted perfectly and the 2 smashed patties were cooked just right and melted in the mouth. The chips were so good, lots of Cajun session but not overpowering with the right flavour to match the burger. Service was amazing and the guy behind the counter did a great job. I paid £16 which is pretty expensive but I guess thats to do with the location. Its worth it for good quality halal food.

5 /5 Chris Shafe: What a super establishment!! The welcome, food, service were all top notch. They seemed to genuinely care about our experience which is a rare thing nowadays. Good portion size. We had a vegetarian mess and the BBQ mess burger meals which were very good value. Im ashamed to say my BBQ mess was so good... I had another!!! Highly recommended.

5 /5 Sumaya Rasul: First time going to messy chef and trying their food. The food was really good, burger was fresh and full of flavour, lots of different variety things to order. Our server Rayan stood out, he was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed without us needing to ask him. You can tell he cares about the customers, which makes the whole place feel welcoming.

5 /5 nasir ahmed: Great burgers, excellent service and nice interior. Probably the best burger joint in Southsea. The desserts are lovely too. It is ever so slightly more expensive than the other halal places for burgers etc in Portsmouth but you get what you pay for and that is an amazing burger and a great selection of sides (which I will try more of next time. Only had the wings this time and they were sublime.).

5 /5 BLIBIB x Beast: Messy chef is an amazing local restaurant. It has a nice cosy atmosphere, attentive staff and delicious food. There is street parking available. All the food is halal. We got the messy hot dog, loaded beef nachos, and classic wings. The portion sizes are extremely good. As well as the messy burger and milkshakes. The messy burger was my favourite. The smashed patties are cooked to perfection and it is well seasoned. Juicy burger. Their shakes are really good too, good flavour and they don’t dilute the chocolate. The staff were very good, food came out very fast. Food was delicious. Price was okay too. They off NHS discount 10%. They also have kombucha as a drink option. Overall a great restaurant and I’ll definitely be back!
