Best Waterfront Restaurants in Dagenham

It was our first visit to Hazev, but it won't be our last. It was one of a very few restaurants in the area open on Christmas Day. The staff was friendly and jolly, as was the atmosphere of the restaurant, with lovely decorations and recorded Christmas songs being played. The Christmas menu was reasonably priced for what was offered, which was a sample of seven starters (humus, tabbouleh, tzatziki, aubergine with tomatoes, filo with spinach & feta, falafel and deep fried prawn) served with freshly baked bread and a choice of one of six main courses. We enjoyed all of the starters. The deep fried king prawn was my husband's favorite and I had a hard time choosing a favorite because I liked them all. We ordered the kofte, which was a generous portion of two skewers of lamb mince and the Hazev special, which was a generous serving of tender, succulent and deliciously seasoned lamb stew on a bed of the most heavenly concoction of aubergine with cheese and bechamel. I savored every bite. For dessert we were served two bite sized pieces of pistachio baklava which made a perfect end to a wonderful meal. Their menu is brimming with other delicacies I look forward to trying. Thank you to the Hazev staff for making us feel welcomed so far from home on Christmas Day.

Absolutely wonderful experience! Wonderful Christmas lunch with a great view. Very relaxing. Thank you.

We had a spontaneous celebratory Sunday dinner and tried out Bonnane for the first time. The staff were very friendly and I would definitely come back. Only thing was the music was sometimes a bit too much of a dance pop vibe for a Sunday evening. The arancini didn’t taste super fresh as they were a bit too crunchy and not creamy. The pizza was very nice! All in all a comfortable place and the staff were so attentive and kind!

Team pre-Christmas drinks went well - the wines, nibbles were very good. The service was very attentive and accommodating, pleasant atmosphere overall.

Delicious food and amazing service, friendly and considerate.
