Henry What makes a good restaurant? Clearly food will feature somewhere on your list and in the case of The Waterside this takes the form of classic French cooking. Nothing is “deconstructed” or designed to surprise. You know exactly what you’re getting from the menu and if you’ve visited previously you probably even know what you’re going to order before you arrive. Nothing is intended to shock. Far too many restaurants at all levels feature a talented kitchen team let down by their front of house. From the moment you arrive here everyone knows what they are doing and wants to make your visit as enjoyable as they possibly can. They’re not trying to trip you up, you don’t have to be fluent in gastronomy or know anything about malolactic fermentation. The sommelier is there to help, not to test. No one is judging you although I’d be lying if said we didn’t people watch our fellow diners a little. You are family when dining at The Waterside, it’s not in any way stuffy or starched. That’s not to suggest service is casual, seamless would be my best description with teams assembling when required to reveal your next course before melting away again to leave you to your conversation. The Waterside is a happy place. My memory of the venue is that it’s a bit dated, the phrase “Chinese restaurant” was used as we drove there but things have quietly evolved. It’s actually quite smart these days. The bathrooms are modern and fresh, the soft furnishings crisp and comforting with a nod to the history of the venue. Let us not forget this is an institution woven into the fabric of British restaurant history.

M Alam Khan Parking nearby can be a little tricky to find, but it’s absolutely worth the effort once you arrive. This is a fantastic place to enjoy truly authentic Chinese food. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. The seating area is comfortable and well laid out, adding to the overall pleasant experience. The service is excellent, attentive, friendly, and efficient throughout. Most importantly, the food is delicious, full of authentic flavours, and clearly prepared with care. A great choice for anyone looking for genuine Chinese cuisine in a lovely setting.

Zoe Hidle Absolutely great food here my favourite spot in hove! I asked for chicken in peppercorn yesterday which isn’t on the menu they did it with absolutely not issues and it was stunning, portions are spot on for me, the people are lovely can’t knock anything about it.

Masab Hameed I can’t even put the taste into words – it was absolutely delicious! The tawa boti and tawa chicken were cooked perfectly, just the way I asked. With every bite, I felt like I was back in Lahore enjoying authentic food. This place is truly a hidden gem and a must-try for anyone who loves real Lahori flavors.

Steven Stagles A brilliant station pub so an excellent location. 3 large screens showing various sports and the staff are always open to request (I often get the NFL put on of a Sunday night), 2 pool tables and 3 dart boards and a poker night on Wednesdays. One of the cheaper places to drink in Dorking which in todays climate is always a big positive! I live in Dorking so have never stayed so cant rate the rooms.
