• British • Braintree

Booked 6 times today

We've been serving the people of Braintree and beyond since 2015 and in that time have humbly become ‘one of Essex’s best restaurants.’ We have received recognition from the AA, having been awarded an AA Rosette for ‘culinary excellence’ for five consecutive years, and then in 2023 we received our second rosette, putting the restaurant amongst the top 10 restaurants in Essex. Our food is of course one of our main focuses, but we don’t just stop there. Attentive, relaxed and friendly service is as important as the food and our objective is to make your visit an enjoyably memorable one. Our exceptional wine supplier, Peter Watts Wines (based up the road in Coggeshall) allows us to offer you delicious wines of an exceptional quality. Then add some cocktails, jazz, personality, creativity, a few hidden quirks and we like to think this all culminates to create a truly wonderful experience. Life is about memories; we want to be part of your best ones.

Perfection as always. No surprise that the place is always fully booked days if not weeks ahead. Warm professional staff, great team in the kitchen! The dishes always look glamorous and tempting, and live up to expectations. My teeniest criticism is that the portions are so large it's one of the few restaurants I don't have a starter. Had the grilled skate with burnt butter and capers, delicious. And my guest had the scallops, prawns and monkfish I think it was in a white sauce with Parmesan crust, the gratin. Fabulous. The good news was we managed dessert, something I rarely eat. Coconut and jam sponge was light as a feather. And cane with vanilla ice cream. Overall,

We visited the Starr with some hyper-fussy friends and they could find nothing to complain about. I can't give a better review than that!
