Reviews of Miller & Carter Colchester
K. S.
Genuinely the nicest meal I've ever had. We came for the Valentine's Day menu and were not disappointed: the steak was delightful and we ended up falling in love with the Camembert mash. The wait for the cheque was a bit long but I'd chalk that up to the staff being run off their feet, as it was incredibly busy.
Absolutely recommend this place. Only down side is that we were so full afterwards and had to take a nap!
C. G.
First time visit....and it didn't disappoint. We had the January three course set menu, and everything was delicious. Our server Allison was brilliant. The atmosphere was good and wait time between courses was perfect.
a.
Truly excellent. Came here for my partners graduation meal and they managed to accommodate all 7 of us. The steaks were magnificent and our server was absolutely exceptional. On his dessert (he ordered the ice cream) they wrote “Happy Graduation!” In chocolate sauce on the serving plate. Little touches like this made this dinner wonderful - thank you so much!

Myself and my partner have come to M&C Colchester today for my 25th birthday. We were blown away by the amazing customer service from the entry through to our exit out of the premises. The food was exceptional also. We will definitely come here again on all special occasions. Thank you for your outstanding hospitality team Miller and Carter and a special thanks to Pablo and Colin who have made our experience here astonishing.
V. Q.
Fantastic meal. Steaks weren't cooked as requested initially but the waiter ensured this was corrected as quickly as possible and was very apologetic, not his fault. Once corrected the meal was lovely.
M. T.
Amazing place! Very quick service, lovely atmosphere, and such great food. Went here to celebrate my graduation from university and it was well worth the trip. Highly recommend!!
J. W.
Food and service were faultless! They were more than happy to move us as we were originally sat quite close to the kitchen which was a little noisy. Also able to change the Christmas lights above us to static as they were flashing quite fast and I suffer from migraines. Our waiter Ryan was absolutely lovely from start to finish and can't fault his service one bit. My steak, 8oz rare fillet was cooked perfectly, as was my partner's. We will definitely be returning again soon!
Z. S.
I had never been here, wanted to go but just hadn't got round to it and it's always so booked up, popular place. I had read and been told mixed things so was excited but also anxious to try for myself. I can happily say, I loved my experience here. Scott B who took our order etc from the start made it a friendly but professional environment, he was brilliant. Its a busy place, so yes was quite warm in there and a tad noisy but that's to be expected when it's busy. Our wait for food was pretty quick considering and it was worth the wait. The steak was yummy. Cooked perfectly to how I ordered and how I like it. We had puddings too, Eton mess and creme brulee. Both equally good too. Had a lovely evening. Thanks guys. 😊
M. D.
The food here is always amazing.
The service is excellent and the restaurant is very clean and well presented.
The staff are always accommodating and can’t do enough to make your visit special.
One again, my go to is either the Chateaubriand or Cote De Boeuf. The wife had the 50 day aged Ribeye. Both were cooked to perfection and accompanied by their killer onion loaf and mind blowing beef dripping sauce.
Todays visit was our Wedding Anniversary and the Wife’s Birthday and our server didn’t disappoint with celebratory desserts.
Visiting Miller & Carter isn’t just for celebrations but the free bubbly and personalised dishes make such occasions extra special.
Thanks again M&C.
See you again soon.
T. p.
Nice food and nice atmosphere ❤️
Strawberry cocktail was really nice and highly recommend for anyone ❤️
And dessert was really good.
Good customer service ❤️

Went here Sunday evening after spending the day at the beach hut excellent friendly staff who went through the menu you explaining everything on it which we could have and couldn't have and the food was exceptional would not hesitate to come here again and highly recommend
S. C.
-Food was Amazing
-Steak cooked perfectly
-Great Service
Came for dinner on a Wednesday as didn't want to cook. Restraunt had great atmosphere even for midweek. Sat immediately and service was quick. Fabio was very attentive but not invasive. Had a lovely evening and will definitely be back!
L. 1.
Food and service good. I enjoyed my meal but other people at the table had onion loaf with their meals and were disappointed. Compared to previous times when they've had them they were a bit dry and over crisp. My scallops were absolutely gorgeous and my salad was fresh. Could have done with a bit more avocado though. Our server was so helpful. Young blonde lad: really polite and friendly but not pushy.
N. B.
Great service from Ellie our waitress. Refreshing to have someone like her serving. More should be like her.
The food was spot on! So kudos to the kitchen staff too who rarely get credit being hidden out the back.
We don't go here often due to the costs but it's nice to treat yourself every now and then and when you do it's nice to get what you pay for.
L. J.
Our host Ayu was brilliant. She was really friendly and we really appreciated how she made sure the food was suitable for my gluten-free husband. Our smallest child is just learning how to order in restaurants and she was super friendly and encouraging. Thank you!
The service was quick, the food was lovely and we all really enjoyed our meal. We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we went in. Everything was very clean and tidy.
D. B.
We went to the restaurant as a party of 4. It was my Husband's Birthday..From being greeted at the door and then shown promptly to our seats, the meet and greet was really nice and inviting..The young lady on reception very polite and happy.
The atmosphere of the resturant was so relaxed but at same time felt special.
Our waitress Amy was so friendly and attentive at all stages, a credit to the restaurant..
As for food each course arrived quickly but we were not rushed at any time. Food lovely ..
K. B.
10/10 experience had the waiter Pavil ( I think I spelt his name wrong) really nice guy looked after us and made us feel really welcome! Will happily be coming back the water be served and the meal itself was gorgeous will definitely be back really nice service and food
M. L.
Our family had a brilliant evening with Miller & Carter. The staff were so helpful, the food was as usual of a very high standard and James our waiter for the evening was amazing. We laughed from the moment he arrived at the table, everything went smoothly and efficiently. It was our sons wedding the following day and he was the tonic we needed for total relaxation.
S. L.
When for our anniversary lovely greeting wishing us a happy anniversary and Ellie was lovely. So helpful with choosing drinks. Received drinks and starter nice and quick. Was sitting watching the kitchen and staff. Chief took meat from grill put on plate and a young man not our waiter took the plate even though there were others that had been there longer and bought them over. We still had not received our lettuce wedge he said I get cutlery and left 5 mins later still waiting so I went to him and said waiting on steak knives and lettuce. Still nothing our waitress appeared and bought knives no lettuce. Our steak were medium and as M&C state pink picture is of mine along with a plate of blood. We asked for the bill and reported the service and steak along with cold fries. Ellie apologised and bought a slate with happy anniversary but sadly it was a little tainted.
D. H.
Very polite staff. Managed to book us in last minute for my wife's birthday even though they didn't really have the space. They did everything they could to make it happen. Our waiter was spot on. Didn't hang over you and didn't ignore you either. Just perfect 👌 food was fantastic as well, cooked exactly how I asked, served promptly even though it was a busy evening. Overall a brilliant experience and the fillet mignon was amazing.
S. C.
Scott served me and my son's today we can not fault him he was polite, helpful, friendly and was clear on allergy issues, we would like to thank him,
The food was faultless, steak cooked to the way you asked for the sauces to accompany the steaks were delicious, the portion size are right.
The menu is helpful it has information letting you know what will be accompanying your choice of meal.
The sweets are very tempting and making a choice is difficult you want to try them all but if you like a light sweet to finish with I can recommend the cheesecake,
We can not fault Miller & Carter Colchester for service, atmosphere and an enjoyable meal
G. P.
Extremely busy for a Monday evening, was only expecting a few tables occupied. Service by Fabio was excellent. Steaks were lovely and cooked perfect. The only thing we would have done different would have been to order just 1 portion of chips between us and also cut of the wedge dish as not sure what the idea of that really was.
s. v.
Staff was great and accommodating. There was a wide variety of choices on the menu. The ambience was lovely but considering there's a dress code I think the place wasn't very strict on implementing it. We were very pleased that the flooring was carpeted as it made the environment less noisy, compared to a wooden floor. It added to the "wow" factor of the place.
j. h.
The food is great and I loved the service. I’ve only been here twice and this is easily one of my favourite restaurants I’ve been to. Will definitely recommend to anyone. If you don’t plan on eating here then you are making a stupid decision and you need to rethink. 10/10 I loved it. 😁
c. i.
As always, one of my fave go to places the staff are so helpful and accommodating to my dietary needs. Nothing was to much, from helping me to slightly change the menu to making sure the chef could make it for me.
My only complaint is I can never have a dessert as I'm gluten and dairy free.
But I can live with that.
The steak was cooked to perfection.
A definite must for couples and even families.
J. N.
My favourite restaurant ever. Been there like 4 times. The steak is immense. The drinks are divine. Great service, all the wait staff are really nice and lovely. Served by Sineade the last time I went - she was a stellar server.
B. P.
Colin, our server, was absolutely fantastic. I've never been to Miller and Carter before but have worked in hospitality on and off for most of my career and I can't speak more highly of Colin. He was polite, funny, personable and helpful throughout - a real boon to your team.
With regards to improvements, I'd just recommend being careful of the toughness of the fat on some of your larger steaks just to really hit a perfect experience.
G. S.
I’ve visited M&C, Colchester a few times and they never disappoint. The last couple of visits have included my handicapped sister. They have gone out of their way to be helpful and attentive. Nothing is too much trouble. Very wheelchair friendly. Excellent food with excellent service. Thank you
I. K.
Food fantastic as ever, nice relaxing atmosphere tonight. Staff very attentive, nice touch from the waitress who arranged, a happy birthday signed plate for our grandson with a candle lit placed in his dessert, for his birthday with out us asking for it. Truly a lovely touch from the staff. Will be back again soon.
A. S.
We had an amazing time at Miller & Carter. Food was amazing, steaks 🥩 best ever, kids love their meals too. Staff very helpful, we had one child with allergy, all meals explained and carefully picked in attention to that. Courtney was amazing and made our day and time there even more special. Thank you so much 😘
S.
The service and staff are always a credit to the company name and nothing is too much effort. I have said before that the starters are fast becoming less value for money. There used to be about 4 starters I chose between but slowly they have been replaced by dishes which I don’t consider value for money. There is now only one I still like and if that goes I’ll probably stop having a starter.
L. W.
Beautiful food and wonderful service, been to a few Miller and Carter's and this one is up there with the best!
J. T.
Visited the Colchester branch yesterday for a late family birthday meal for my husband and I have to say it was brilliant! The table provided allowed us to have enough room to comftable enjoy our dinner alongside keeping my little child safe and content while we enjoyed a nice selection of food!
Very accommodating and friendly, accessible for all!
C. R.
Honestly was such an amazing night, it was mine and my partner’s first ever time visiting and honestly the food and even the staff was so amazing! we are definitely planning on coming back as our 8years anniversary is coming up. Thank you so much for the lovely food and drinks and we will hopefully see you all in October!.. X
S. M.
Great service, really looked after my partner, me and our newborn. Sat us in a nice quiet area so I could nurse and a few members offered to turn off the fan. Fabulous food and wine as always!
J. W.
Ate here for husband's birthday again, can't really beat it lovely food and staff GREAT!! Steak was the best he's had for a long time, duck was delicious and the sauce just finished it off , chef's recommation for sweet, meringue once again surpassed all expectations, a truly great meal.
V. O.
Our server Scott was superb. He was attentive without being annoying and preempted our needs without being pushy. Food was great (apart from one overcooked steak but that wasn't a big issue) and the drinks were well made. We've been to M & C a number of times and will continue to keep coming back
B. P.
Service was a little slow to start but the food was amazing. Highly recommend the beed dripping sauce. Children's menu was great too.
A. H.
Fantastic service and fantastic food, our server Nico was so friendly and funny. 100% will revisit the next time I go to Colchester!!
R. C.
James and his colleagues were fantastic. Very friendly and totally professional. They made us so welcome. Food absolutely lovely and the lunch menu is such superb value. Highly recommended.
K. G.
The service is very good and staff attentive. I did ask that the lettuce wedge come before the main course. It did but we were only half way through the wedge when the main course arrived, more time should be given in between the courses to allow people to enjoy their meal rather than try to rush it.
S. B.
Although we arrived today without booking, we were greeted by Kris who immediately found a suitable table for my disabled wife without any hesitation. All the way through our meal, Kris was extremely helpful and polite and had an excellent knowledge of the menu and was able to recommend items which were definitely to our liking.
C. G.
I have been coming to Miller & Carter in Colchester for many years along with my friends & family. It has been my go to for a guaranteed good meal every time. This evening was the first time we were unsatisfied with the food. The sirloin (which was ordered medium rare) was more well done & dry. The onion loaf & chips were cold. HOWEVER, after we complained about this the staff were fabulous. Our waitress sorted replacements straight away & the manager came over & spoke with us personally, asking if there was anything he could offer to make it right. We were also refunded the said meal we were not happy with. Such a shame the food wasn’t up to standard as it has been the 10 plus times we’ve been before but the service made up for it mostly. Hoping it was a blip as we love coming here.
J. M.
Came for my husband’s 50th Birthday. Fantastic service and restaurant etiquette. Kris looked after us incredibly well. Lovely atmosphere. Thank you so much. Will definitely be returning xx
J. “. L. C.
We went as a group of four. It was busy but they still had fast service. One member was not completely happy with their food and they replaced with a fresh plate cooked exactly how they wanted. Definitely good service
a. w.
Food is amazing an the service is brilliant. Even though they were busy we had hardly any wait for our food. We get the Butchers Block to share and each steak was cooked to perfection. Easily our favourite restaurant around here.
E. S.
Just had our 5th wedding anniversary and celebrated with a lovely meal here at M&C Colchester. Wonderful service by Kris all evening. The team went beyond themselves making sure we had a truly memorable night. Thanks to you all. Can't imagine spending any other anniversary anywhere else
H. W.
Lovely time at Miller and Carter's in Colchester. Sunday after at one so it wasn't busy (I do find it very loud when it is full due to it being a large area and all open planned).
Sunday lunch menu had a nice variety of different dishes. Waiter was nice and friendly
D. F.
Apart from the extremely well cooked food the staff were excellent. One of our party wanted to know where his beer was made. The server did not now but went off to find out and returned within a few minutes an told him. Much appreciated!
B. H.
Lunchtime menu wonderful, staff very friendly & easy going. Wish other places treated customers with as much respect. Well done & thanks to chef(s) for amazing food
M. J.
We came for a meal for my Mums birthday. The meal was delicious as always!
The doorman wished my Mum Happy Birthday on arrival, and without me asking, pointed out the toilets on my way there.
Ayu, in particular, was fabulous. Very polite and helpful.
Mum Mum has never been to Miller & Carter before, but we will all definitely be retuning!
s. m.
Food (steak) was perfect, atmosphere was pleasant but the service was great . Our server was lynda and its been a long time anywhere since we've received such a pleasant and competent service. She knew what she was doing and engaged , proper pro .
M. G.
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 steaks worth every penny👏🏻👏🏻Very good 👍🏻

James was a fantastic waiter and very helpful and friendly, he was very professional and a true credit to Miller and Carter.
The food was excellent as always and my partner and love going to the Colchester M&C.
All staff are friendly and welcoming.
D. P.
Beautiful place to eat. Great food and great company. Amber, our waitress for the evening was very professional and courteous. Would definitely eat there again. Thank you Miller & Carter Colchester
H. P.
James was a fantastic waiter. He was efficient, professional and couldn't do enough to ensure our visit was as enjoyable as it could be. The food was cooked to perfection.
H. C.
Had fillet steak which was perfect. Quite rare even though I asked for medium rare but the flavour was fantastic. My estimation of Miller and carter's had gone down recently but this one was excellent. Very good service, polite and helpful. Not rushed at all and even gave us more time between courses. We went on a Sunday and they had a deal 3 courses for £30. For four of us the whole cost on the bill was around £135 (we did have a 20% discount card). However still a very reasonable price. I had a peroni and a malbec for drinks which went down perfectly with a steak. Had a side of truffle mac and cheese and sticky toffee pudding for desert. Recommend them both. Overall really nice restaurent and look forward to going back.
G. P.
The restaurant had a nice atmosphere the staff were very welcoming and friendly.
The food was excellent I had the 8oz steak done beautifully. We will be back.
F. R.
I came in with my friend and our waitress was called Ayu. The service and friendliness she gave us was outstanding. She made us feel welcome and comfortable as this was our first time in your restaurant. We had a chat and I showed her my baby pics and some older ones. We all laughed and had another chat.
My friend and I felt sorry for her as she was the only staff member to carry on working when the others where having there lunch. Customers were coming in and she was the only one who was serving them. All that time she's still smiling and putting them first.
Nothing was to much trouble for her in which she's a credit to your restaurant and company, not like the others were.
Please thank her. Faz and Graham
A. F.
Service was excellent. Our drinks were kept topped up throughout the meal and the waiter was friendly, attentive without being pushy and the food was extremely good.
A. B.
We were warmly welcomed at the front door and led to our table. Our server was Maisie who advised this was her first shift in the restaurant so to bare with her as she may have to check anything she was unsure of. However Maisie did a very good job from taking our drinks order to answering questions about the menu and apologising when there was no 12oz ribeye steaks available. When our starters arrived we mentioned to Maisie we were getting a draft from the air conditioning. She quickly closed the two vents pointed in our direction which made an instant difference to the temperature, meaning we were able to sit and enjoy our meal. Maisie checked on us occasionally but was not intrusive and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would return again.

D. M.
Excellent food and excellent service from our waiter Chris who was attentive, polite, helpful and professional. Steak was beautifully cooked and all food and drink were the right temperature, prompt without being rushed and delicious
r. w.
Never been to miller and carter before, we had the set lunch menu at £15 ish a head - and what a bargain it was! good service good quality food well cooked and realistically for the price of a drivethru but of course worlds apart . Will be sure to go back and try the evening menu - which although pricey I'm sure will be worth it !
S. H.
My boyfriend and I come here for our anniversary and couldn’t have had a better evening. Our waiter Kris was so polite and attentive and the food was amazing too! Definitely coming back!
C. R.
The food was warm, not hot. You could see that is was standing a short while before serving. During this very busy time maybe this could improve
v. w.
Kris was our server for the evening, very friendly and helpful. 1st visit to this restaurant. Had a lovely dinner and dessert as a birthday treat for my boyfriend.
r.
First time visiting last night, dont think I will go back. Firstly service was incredible, meal not so much. For a steak with a £7 supplement it was undercooked to the request of medium and was only warm. The butter on top didnt even melt! the chucky chips tasted like cafeteria chips as if they were left on the hot plate too long, same with the peppercorn sauce which came with a skin on I.e left a while, as well as the onion slab. Generally disappointed as I was looking forward all week. And my glass was dirty to top it off. Plus wasn't really sure what to do with quarter of a lettuce. Very build your own meal.
R. I.
I really really liked Miller & Carter. I'm no steak expert but have eaten enough to know what I like and I was very pleased with this restaurant. The accompanied sides that came with the steaks were a pleasant surprise. The salad wedge was actually quite refreshing.
Have the Châteaubriand
S. R.
We visited for my daughter's 18th and were made to feel very special
Our waitress Sineade was fantastic, as were managers Alan and Fabio.
My daughter even got to make cocktails at the bar!
A. H.
Great social distancing in place. Menu great as always, it is expensive but sometimes worth it for a great steak. Dessert was disappointing, had no dark chocolate shards and only 2 crushed raspberries and strawberries with stalks - not as described in menu.
M. c.
Great lunch, clean restaurant, great server on James. Disappointed in the prawn and crab starter, hardly any prawns and no crab. Very poor. Everything else was great though.
J. H.
Lovely food, been to a few miller's around Kent & Essex this is one of our favs. Tables are set out with plenty of space between them which we prefer, we visited another m&c in Essex last year and I was pretty much on someone else's lap lol.
Could not fault our food atall or the service.
F. L.
The area of Stanley and copford are now increasingly becoming very popular areas for food retailers established the businesses up by the beautiful garden centre in stanway. Entering your building it was quite noisy in the sense of that it was bustling you did a good thing there was lots of people there with lots of service going on and the waitress and were just amazingly friendly and were able to tell us all about the menu also it was a nice dining experience and the the menu was easy to read and easy to to pick out what you wanted well done, the only query I have is the sides which is the letters and which is comes in a quarter of a iceberg lettuce which dressing on it It's a lot to eat and one go but also I think it would be recommended if they could char grill it on both ends both sides it would give it much more definite flavour to it that's just my advice
S. M.
Quite easily the best steak I've had on this side of the Atlantic.
Miller & Carter is a cut above the rest, where British steakhouses are concerned. The atmosphere is warm, friendly, and welcoming. Service is excellent and attentive without being intrusive.
Prices are on the high side, but the quality of what's on offer is simply superb.
Highly recommended...
P. H.
Food was very good as was the service would certainly go again dessert decoration was because it mentioned to our server it was my birthday.
J. T.
To be honest other than getting drinks order within first 5-10 minutes we can’t really fault you guys we always go to you guys we love our steak and have dined at really great steak oriented restaurants and my honest opinion the steak you guys cooked for me last night was top notch fast friendly staff and we always enjoy our experience!
E. G.
Colin the server was amazing. Our kids were playing up and he took it all in his stride and even came running out after me when I left the change back. Thanks colin.
The only thing we would have changed (other than two tired kids) would have been the size of the table
E. D.
Always enjoy our visit to the restaurant. Food was really good.Pavo & Nico Always make our visit special.Absolutely offer great customer service. Always check if all is good with your food.If they can help with anything.
D. L.
We decided to order from the festive menu as it was the 23rd of December. I'm very pleased we did as not only was it pleasing to look at, but tasted delicious too. The turkey was tender and didn't taste dry at all. The waiter, who was from Italy, was fantastico! One of the best times I've had visiting a Miller and Carter.
E. R.
Nice fillet steak. Joe did a great job in serving our table. The place was roasting thanks to the weather.
T.
One of the best restaurants in Colchester. Wonderful atmosphere, attentive staff, and fantastic steak. Surprisingly not that expensive, either.
T. G.
Love going to miller and Carter Everything we have is always lovely and cooked to how we like it but was really upset to find we had been there 4 times in all since Xmas and they had wiped my rewards off or didn’t put them on properly was most upset as would of had 4 rewards so may think twice about going again as not cheap for a family of 5 adults as kids don’t eat kids meals
J.
Our visit was amazing. Kris was an amazing waiter to have serving us. Extremely pleasant and helpful. A credit to the buisness
C. B.
Went there today for lunch, and had truly outstanding service by the waiter James, he is a true asset to the company, I hope they realise how good he is at his. You should go for his service if nothing else
A. H.
The lady who served us was so lovely and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The food was also delicious.

Great food great service will go again

Wasn't expecting much from this place, but I was wrong.
The decor is modern and elegant with a hint of a traditional vibe. Leather seating and low slung lighting in places, exposed brickwork and the fittings are to a high standard.
The staff are welcoming and helpful and I really have no complaints at all when it comes to this place.
The food was much better than I had expected, literally everything was amazing. We had a lovely sharing platter to start consisting of duck legs with hoi sin and seasame seeds, spinach and feta samosas, handmade nachos, sticky chicken wings and calamari rings! All the meat almost fell off the bone, except the duck legs. For a main I had the oak smoked brisket with beef dripping sauce, mash and an onion thing I've forgotten the name of, same thing here though, delicious! And a little cheese cake to finish it off oh and an espresso martini! Try one and you will love it.
In short it's a new build with beautifully elegant decor and amazing food!! We will be back without a doubt.
Well done to all the staff that made our visit very pleasant.
I. T.
Dependable service and food. Staff are well-trained although some things were slow or missed during our visit. Decent value too.
m. w.
Kris was great. Extremely professional, knew his menu and was extremely helpful. Lunch was amazing
D. C.
Really nice dinner out, staff were great, decor was clean well planned out, seating was a mix of deep set comfy chairs and booths, whole place had a lively atmosphere which was comfortable and great for chilling and people watching. Meal itself was really good paid a bit extra for the rib eye and wasn't disappointed, the onion loaf was a delightful surprise which I very much enjoyed, pudding was nice opted for the sticky toffee pudding more of a tray bake with sauce on top but still good and would definitely go again.
A. C.
I have been to this Miller and Carter a few times over past couple of years and never had a bad experience. Its clean, tidy and well presented. Parking is available, which can on odd occasions, get busy.
If you go at lunch mid week then you can have the fixed price lunch which is very reasonable... ordering off main menu can start to get expensive, especially if you have your heart set on a special cut of steak! With that said... everymeal I have had has been very tasty - and I have come to realise that I am a tad addicted to the beef dripping sauce...! (I order it as an extra when I go and am not having steak...!)
Well worth a visit, just wish I could afford to go more often!

Service was excellent and the food was too. Served by Kris who was superb and I would highly recommend.

Superb steak ! Fantastic attitude towards allergies and a wonderful atmosphere.

My first visit to M&C and in general it didn't disapoint. The welcome was warm and friendly, the decor and ambience was classy without being ostentatious. The serving staff were suoer helpful and attentive without being intrusive.
The baked brie sharing starter was heavenly, my partners main fish course was fabulous. The only slight minus mark was that I ordered a 16oz 30-day aged ribeye steak and it was okay, but for a ribeye it didn't have much in the way of flavour tbh. At £32.95 it was a bit of a disappointment tbh.
In comparison the ribeye i had at a Beafeater the previous week looked awful but tasted amazing...
Overall, a lovely night out, great venue and atmosphere but just fell short of awesome.

Never visited this chain previously will certainly be returning. Great location and ample parking - the building appears to have been purpose built for the restaurant. Had the T-Bone (First time in around 15 years) and it was absolutely lovely the fries were divine the onion loaf was perfectly crisp as was the lettuce. Couldn't fault the food and the other guests were in agreement. What pushed this review to a genuine 5 🌟 was the quality of staff. The restaurant was at full capacity our waiter was attentive and helpful whilst unobtrusive charming gentleman that served the espresso gave us a free Italian lesson ! See you soon and thank you

Our waitress Jodie was the most attentive and friendly waitress I have ever had at a restaurant, she made our experience a very positive one and we will definitely be returning. I hope she receives the recognition that she deserves as we were a tricky table of 9 and she dealt with us very professionally and made my friends birthday special

We turned up without booking at 6:30pm one Saturday and it was busy, but Fabio bless him
managed to squeeze us in so long as we left by 8:15-30pm. This suited us, so a glass of house red, one fillet and one rump steak meals later and oh my god the food was delicious. Compliments to the chefs and the service they provided! Definitely using again. Dan & Cristina

Food was spot on! Both steaks were cooked to perfection 👌 Restaurant had a relaxing mood with the lighting and decor. A few niggling negatives that I'd like to mention but it doesn't affect our opinion about the restaurant in general. Number 1, my partner was asked of she wanted fries or sweet potato fries? She opted for the sweet potato fries and a charge of £1 was added without any mention from the server about this. Number 2, the hand dryer in the gents toilets wasn't working. And thirdly our server was a little to attentive towards my partner which did make her feel a little awakard. Those few negatives are minor issues which did not affect our otherwise enjoyable experience. We will certainly come back at some point.

Had a fantastic experience on Sunday 3rd April celebrating a 40th birthday. Our waitress Lisa was very attentive and has a lovely personality. We couldn’t fault the food, it was all cooked to perfection, and came out in reasonable time.
B. D.
Went here for a birthday meal and it was divine! All 3 courses were lovely. As a special treat we had the Chateaubriand Steak and I did not begrudge a penny of spending £50 (on just the meat alone!!....) The sides, sauces and extra's were beautiful. It is expensive but you get what you pay for... quality! The restaurant itself is nice and the staff are very attentive. Will return for special occasions!
C. B.
Really impressed on our first visit, staff very welcoming and friendly. Couldn't fault a thing, the meal was prompt hot and most enjoyable. Will definitely be returning. 🙂
E. H.
We had a lovely meal in the evening of March 6th. Lisa was our waitress, she was absolutely lovely. I told Lisa how we all said she was the best waitress we had ever had anywhere. As well as being super attentive and friendly, Lisa took her time with my Grandad who is hard of hearing and gave him a good experience too. All our food was delicious, hot and cooked to perfection. Even my little girl enjoyed her food and wants to come back, she is a notorious fussy eater! We had no issues during our visit and can't wait to return!
e. h.
We have been a few times recently because it's that good. The waiting staff are attentive and very friendly which can border on intrusive but we were fine with it. I love my steaks, the main thing being the thickness and they do the size I like. I seem to need the meal for two option to myself! Always it's cooked perfectly and the fact it comes with 2 lettuce wedges and two chip portions means that I can share that with my wife. All this beautiful beef is washed down with draught Peroni. Love it.
T. C.
Lovely restaurant - Alison was a great waitress! Visited for our wedding anniversary. Thoroughly recommend the Butchers Block - and the cocktails are delish. We were so impressed as first timers to Miller & Carter.
M. M.
Excellent place food delicious best steak I have had. very polite and helpful staff worth every penny. Will definitely visit again
R. B.
Really nice food and cooked better than our local restaurant! Our local one always tend to be undercooked for some reason but the Colchester restaurant was lovely! The waitress was very friendly and attentive. She was a slightly older lady with a blonde bob (I can't remember her name). All-round good experience
J. M.
The greeting was good we were seated straight away give a few minutes to choose drinks Our server was Ryan S he was great attentive but not over bearing, cheerful and very helpful
He rang the bell for us because the meal was great
We were out for dinner for a birthday
The whole evening was fantastic the food was well prepared as we asked for
The whole experience was Totally a great
We will be back again soon

Visited here with my wife end of March for an evening meal, beautiful modern building and ambience, busy place however attentive staff who all seem to work as a team and enjoy their role.
Waitress was faultless (Lisa) , such a lovely polite lady who clearly goes out her way to ensure customers enjoy their meal, Starters Mains and Dessert were outstanding..simply delicious, well presented and copious amount
Highly Highly Recommend the Chatuea to share steak and the banoffee pie is unreal!.
Well done to you all, we had a lovely time and it's rare to see a larger chain of restaurant groups to have deliver such service
Thank you
C. C.
Where do I start, absolutely brilliant restaurant!! First time we have been here today and the service we received was second to non, our waiter PAV, could not of asked for more from you and very happy with your service, he checked up to make sure all was ok and recommended the steak 🥩 I chose, he new his stuff and very knowledgeable regarding the menu.
5**** service and food
Well done guys, we will definitely be back.
Best service we have ever had and that was thanks to you PAV.
Thanks again
J. W.
First time visiting and was recommended the steak but there was some really amazing other choices. I opted for the Chefs reccomendation which was pork fillet wrapped in bacon, With apple three ways, dauphinoise potato, green beans and roasted Mediterranean-style vegetables.
It was amazing. Others had steak on the table witch looked amazing too! I can reccomend the main I had, the Yorkshire pudding starter is amazing and the banoffee pie was divine (I pinched a mouthful of my partners!)
Service was great, very friendly. Very pricey but when we eat out it's usually with our little ones so we have to go to a more 'child friendly environment' this was a bit too fancy for my two little legs so it was nice for me and my partner to have a nice evening with decent food and company. You basically pay for what you get and what we got was lovely.
P. C.
I enjoy coming here. We often go out as a family here for meals, or celebrations.
My only criticism, is although the steak is cooked to order, as I like, everytime and more often than not HOT.
They do seam to struggle serving any of the sides, or accompainments hot.
I have sat very close to the pass, and they attempt to hot hold chips, and tomatoes, the onion etc her under a hot light, that doesn't do the trick.
I wouldn't have thought cooking chips to order, or sides to order was that difficult.
M. H.
Had a lovely meal. As always delish! Not the cheapest place but you pay for what you get plus they made the hubby's 40th special
C. s.
Staff were super friendly and made sure our 11 year old daughter was included in the meal decisions. Food came out just as we ordered and was very tasty
E. G.
Great drinks, great food and great service from Josh I believe! Koko Kolada was delicious and lighter than the traditional piña colada, steaks were perfectly cooked and were very tender, my only criticism was the portion of the kids mac and cheese which was the same as an adult side, however the kids calamari starter was very big. Overall great night out and what dinning out should be like 👍🏼
V. O.
We've been to M&C in Colchester a few times now and usually have a great time. Superb service from Nico. Made the evening for us and we'll definitely be requesting him every time we go
D. B.
Absolutely Fantastic food …did not disappoint !! our lovely server, Amber, assisted with meal choices, had a beautiful smile and made our night enjoyable. Definitely will be returning!!!!!
J. S.
Great food, beef jus was just the best with my rib eye!
Attentive waitress, cucumber instead of celery with the wings starter or would have been 5 stars.
O. N.
Fantastic place. Wished they still did the fillet Wellington though.
Update: just visited today and had fantastic service. Food was fantastic as always, however our server was professional, timely and very considerate towards our child (offering to bring out his meal whilst the adults were still bring cooked). Little things like that go a long way, so thank you. Atmosphere was great as always, and though the food is more on the pricey side, when going out for a special treat this will certainly be in my top 5 for high class service and experience
L. N.
Fantastic celebratory family meal, no complaints. Service was good, food spectacular and price very reasonable

From the gentlemen on the front desk and the waitress we were made welcome even though they were busy and we had not booked, for a first time experiance the food was great as well as the service and help with the menu , Sineade was our waitress for the evening she made sure we felt special no question was to much and helped with our choice as so much to choose from .

A. W.
If you're looking for cheap and cheerful, don't go here. However, if you are after the finest steak you've ever had and an ambience to match then you won't be disappointed. Just be prepared for a meat induced coma afterwards.
My second outing was equally amazing. The burgers are also sublime. So moist, cheesey and delicious that it had to be finished off with a knife and fork - and that's a compliment. Keep up the good work!
H. H.
we had a very pleasant experience, Colin, our waiter, was amazing and could not have done more for us.
S. D.
A supreme burger eatery.
Good choice menu if you like steak.
Various steak dishes for you to choose from.
The burgers are excellent, not cheap but easily one of the best we have ever had.
Plenty of seating and a bar area.
Level access and large car park.
The staff are all very friendly and attentive.
Personally we could do without the music playing, especially as it is not we would listen to.
At least the volume was low, so it didn't spoil our visit.
A. B.
We went for a anniversary meal and was not disappointed at all, from start to finish Joe our waiter was attentive, very polite and not at all pushy. The food was amazing, the steak was cooked to perfection. We could not fault anything. We will definitely be going back and recommending. Thank you Colchester Miller and Carter for a wonderful evening
K.
I have somehow managed to visit three times in two weeks (two family events and a dinner with friends) and I have to say every single time the food was amazing! Additionally, every single member of staff has been wonderful, very helpful, friendly and accommodating. Thank you for the wonderful memories.
j. m.
Amazing food as always. Staff so friendly
K.
*Note:* My own, and the reviews made a few weeks after mine, are made literally just as the store opens, so they're yet to fully work out what they're doing. My own review was made before the restaurant was open to the actual *public*, so take that as a disclaimer.
Miller and Carter has a bell. Whenever anyone tells their waiter that the food is the best they've ever had, or that it's the best steak they've had in their lives, or something to that effect, the bell is rang.
When I heard about that, I didn't imagine it would happen all that much. But then I went there. Quite simply, the bell was rung a lot that night. Miller and Carter has the best steak I've ever had. No questions asked. It's a bit expensive (8oz sirloin being a good £18), but by god was it good.

Dannielle the waitress was superb, really made the meal. Very courteous and kind.
R. G.
A great meal and night out. Tonight we had a fantastic waitress to boot. Only critical comment is pricing has increased over recent years and the food has not improved in proportion to the increase, infact some menu items are significantly smaller than previous years. Miller & Carter has been my go to steak place but like many other customers, price is key in these times. Although all very good service etc, please don't get too greedy Miller & Carter it will spoil your brand. 👍
D. H.
Everything was great except we did find it rather noisy in there, Although we were seated near the kitchen......

Last time we came to Miller and Carters for my birthday, we were put in the far left corner, it was hard to get served, the food was poor and all the atmosphere was in the main restaurant area. I was not going to go back there but my wife was given a gift card for her birthday. This time we asked to be seated in the main restaurant area, ( I had pre booked a table) service was slow to start but did get better. However, my ribeye steak was the best I have ever had, the Chef cooking, really got it just right, so tender and tasty. I will happily go there again and try my luck and hope I get another great steak.
A. M.

The service as usual was excellent. Miller and Carter train their staff to the highest standard.
W. B.
Sadly our visit yesterday was the 1st out of many visits that we were disappointed.
Normally such a treat to visit but service was slow and food was at best just ok .
Onion loaf with steak was so burnt and crisp it shot across the floor when my partner tried to cut it ! Steak small and undercooked .
I had the hake which was overcooked and had a tough layer on top .
All of which could have been rectified if our waitress had of paid us the all so important mid meal check to see if all OK.
K. H.
Celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary and we were made to feel special. Thank you to our waitress Danielle.

Myself and my family went to the Colchester M&C for my 62nd birthday, as always the food was excellent. I must say that Danielle the young lady serving us without a doubt the best ever server we have had. She was polite, efficient and very thoughtful, I would be more than happy for her to be serving us again and again, she made the day which was already enjoyable that little bit better. Thanks Danielle x

Love this place, been to 3 around the country and all have been great. Would highly recommend

First visit to this Miller&Carter today on my birthday. Attentive, polite staff, good menu, although not a meat eater enjoyed the fish&chips. Always enjoy the non alcoholic cocktails at this chain, so much nicer than an orange juice or lemonade!
D. A.
very lovely service from Kris, food was perfect
D. S.
Visited on the 16th February. The food was incredible and the service was one of the best I've experienced from a waiter when eating out, James went above and beyond and made our experience a enjoyable one. Will definitely be visiting again 😀

Very pleasant and attentive staff, despite being fairly full they could accommodate us as walk ins.

If you like me and find it hard to eat out due to food allergies. We went out for our 40th wedding anniversary, the gluten free menu was very good, and our sever Scott was so polite and attentive, from been annexation to having a great night.

Not been here for a while, came tonight with the wife and the place was buzzing, very busy so was expecting delays, couldn’t have been more wrong, our waitress Jodie was so attentive but certainly not overbearing was awesome, Fabio the manager really cared for his customers and staff and that came across in spades.
Our new top steak restaurant and we are soooo fussy so we’ll done miller and carter Colchester!
A. B.
We had an awesome stakes, Charlotte (the waitress) was amazing and provides above an beyond level of service:)

Warm welcome and excellent service. Food and drink are fresh. Well presented and very tasty. The Alcohol free mojito was amazing. Perfect for a sunny day when your the designated driver.
Saturday afternoon. A busy service but food and drink came out in good time.
The manager Fabio was attentive and wanted everything to be just right for guests. A perfect afternoon. Unfortunately I over indulged on the starter. Main and sides. so no room for puddings. Always busy so tables need to be booked in plenty of time to avoid disappointment. Thank you to Miller and Carter and their great staff.

Went tonight with my 11 year old,she was very excited,specially as Xmas decorations were up!!! Very friendly and attentive staff,my daughter demolished her 8oz fillet steak as I did to my 20z new York strip and I finished off with binoffee pie ,lovely!! Great evening as was the food ,will be going again five stars👍😁
I. B.
I really enjoyed our evening here. Service was excellent, and a nice selection of wines. The filet mignon wasn't the best I've had, and was missing the melt-in-your-mouth texture that this cut of meat usually provides. It was cooked nicely though and food presentation was good. Overall a good experience and the restaurant is a nice place to be.
W. H.
Food, service and ambience were all good and staff were super friendly

Really great place. Not the cheapest, but the food is really good, service is amazing and portions are decent, so actually value for money is good. Obviously had a steak which was huge and very nice, but desserts were also very impressive.

Lovely birthday evening last week. The food was amazing - great quality steaks as advertised! Special shout out to our waiter Pavel who helped make the experience - should probably promote him to manager :)

Fantastic meal on Sunday, everyone was very attentive from management to servers. Nico was our server, he was absolutely brilliant, always on the go, polite and friendly throughout the whole meal.

Very nice meal..fillet steak,rare was spot on with great service..attentive but not over the top.
Good vibe from the whole place, buzzing I'd call it.
Only complaint was there triple cook chips are not that great.They are not crispy and fluffy as you'd expect..fat and soft is what you get..nah!! Not good but apart from that 9/10
J. T.
It's great to go somewhere where you can count on getting a decent steak that is cooked beautifully - and good service. 💛

Our meals and the service was great, but the air conditioning was on full blast and we got very cold even though we asked for it to be turned down...
G. B.
I have been eating at Miller and Carter since I worked as a grill chef at the first ever restaurant opened (camelot) , I have over the years visited many Miller and Carter resterants and considering the price of the steaks I expect them to be of high quality, seasoned and cooked as ordered, unfortunately on this occasion I found the t bone steak to be very dry, it was cooked as asked but both the fillet and sirloin was just dry and gray looking, my partner had the sirloin and it was also dry and gray blue looking in colour which didn't look right, it had no flavour, the sweet potato fries were really soft and soggy too. The service was very good on this occasion and the reception was great. I probably should have sent the steaks back but was in a rush on this visit so decided not to, so overall the experience was fine but the meat quality was poor at best. I will be eating at Miller and Carter again I hope this was a one off experience I could speculate as to why the meat could be like this but as I do not know for sure I'll leave it off this review
A.
Perfectly cooked and presented food, perfectly seasoned. Wonderful staff. A delightful evening. Highly recommended.
S. D.
We visited as a couple for Sunday lunch. We were greeted as we entered the restaurant & shown to our table. Our server, Lisa, was very friendly with a great sense of humour. Our part of the restaurant was cold, Lisa noticed I was cold & a colleague quickly sorted it. Our food was delicious. We had lamb with ratatouille & dauphinoise potatoes and burger with fries & for desert creme brulee & tirimasu. We would definitely recommend this restaurant if you like great food and amazing service.
E. B.
Lovely family meal, childrens mac and cheese had a beautiful crispy top and creamy pasta.
Bistro steak cooked medium rear, plenty of juice 😋.
Onion loaf good size and triple cooked chips.
Mini chocolate brownie and a tea was a great finish
P. M.
Had lunch with my friend here today who had never been to the restaurant before. It was a birthday treat to her from me ...and what a treat it was..cannot fault anything at all. We were made very welcome and very friendly service throughout the meal..The meal itself was perfection..a well deserved 5 stars

We visited on Christmas Day and had a fantastic experience all round. The menu was varied and sufficiently naughty for a Christmas treat. The food was amazing, cheese souffles, sea bass, steak and the most indulgent dessert I've ever had. Our waiter was wonderful and looked after us very well. See you next year 😘
J.
I've been to a few branches of Miller & Carter now and I have to say that sadly this wasn't one of the best. I had the ribeye steak and I just didn't really enjoy it for the money I paid, I found it to be quite fatty, which seems to be a common theme throughout Miller & Carter restaurants. I think in future I'll be sticking to fillet or sirloin steaks only, also the waitress seemed quite blunt and a tad impatient, for the money we paid I would expect a higher standard of service really. Overall, it's nice but it's definitely not the best M&C I've visited.
M. D.
First visit to this food restaurant. Had to wait a long time for food. Steak, sauce, onion loaf, chips were barely warm. Plates were cold. Not something I would expect from this restaurant, considering my food was in the higher bracket. I would not rush back I'm afraid!
B. T.
Great food, enjoyed an amazing t bone steak perfectly cooked.
The wegde is a great idea and really quite refreshing as a side.
Followed by a delicious banoffee pie pudding.
Overall an awesome meal out.
D. S.
Great night out, very busy but worth it because of the food. Can't wait to go again!
M. B.
Always top class service and food whenever I visit. Perfect evening and well worth the money and can see why its busy all of the time, so book in advance to avoid disappointment!

We were a party of six and our meal was booked for 17 October. The service was outstanding and the young lady could not do more to help. They mixed the lager up a few times (served cider with a similar name) but exchanged it without any issue. Five of us had great main meals and the steaks/salmon were superb. Personally my Ribeye was not to the same standard and I had to leave some as it was chewey. This was fedback. Otherwise all ok.

Havent been for a few years, on the two previous occasions we had fab meals, well it didnt disappoint! The place was packed which might make you a little wary of how good it would be, but the food was lovely aswell as the service, Alison our waitress was a star, thank you for a great evening!

Great food good value for money on the set lunch menu. Childrens meatball as a main was the only let down with very little food on the plate, tiny amount of pasta and what looked like 1 meatball cut into 8 pieces. My Son was very disappointed as he loves meatballs.
T. N.
Good food but not as great as I remember it used to be.

The food was amazing but what made our night was our server James who had us laughing all evening
S. M.
Excellent food and service. A couple of minuses, music a bit intrusive and entirely the wrong type. Also, when it states "a glazed beef tomato 🍅", I expect to get one, not a small bit of one. It's very pleasant though and well laid out. Hint: try the peppercorn sauce, it's impressive!

Service was really good, food was lovely as always

My latest trip to Miller & Carter was with my Girlfriend for a celebratory meal - We had recently found out that she was pregnant, and that any meat she eats needs to be cooked through thoroughly.
Because we are both still getting use to the idea of her being pregnant, she had completely forgotten to ask for her Steak Burger to be cooked through. When the food arrived, the burger was slightly pink in the middle, however, the waitress and Chef were fantastic! Even though the mistake was on us, they insisted on cooking her a fresh meal which came through quite quickly and was cooked perfectly.
We were really happy with the way the situation was handled and will continue to be a regular customer to Miller & Carter!

Been here a few times, always good food and good service. We were assisted (don't like served) tonight by Kris and he was exceptionally good at his job. Chatty, friendly, observant while being absolutely professional, as someone that has worked in customer service in one form or another for 30yrs plus, not easy to do, especially while all your tables are full.
To the bosses or M&C, hold on to this young man, if I was an employer looking for staff, I would most certainly employ him and I suspect he will get offers, whether asked for or not.
Thank you Kris, I hope you see this. We had a great evening and you made it thus.
E. S.
Awesome steak and hospitality. Thank you Ryan you made my husband has a very happy birthday xx.

We ended up here as Toby carvery was packed on a Sunday but had a really good meal. They don't do a Sunday roast, but the burgers and fish and chips we had instead more than compensated 😋 love the minty mushy peas!
J. S.
I know it's a chain but the quality is as good any steak I've had anywhere and the service was excellent
R. F. S. L.
My family and I have visited here twice now and each time the place blows us away. The food is amazing and the staff are so friendly and helpful. I can personally recommend highly the Ribeye Steak. Not only do they do steak but excellent meals for all palates. If you want excellence, you will not be disappointed here! 5 Stars

My husband, daughter sister in law and myself had lunch on Sunday 25th July. We were served by Nico, who did a fabulous job of looking after us; nothing was too much trouble and he made our lunch an even more enjoyable experience due to his delightful personality! We all really enjoyed our steaks, each cooked to exactly the way we wanted. We didn’t have room for the knickerbocker glory that we saw someone else having - next time perhaps!
J. W.
The food was delicious! I would definitely recommend the sharer platter! Service was quite slow but I do appreciate it was very busy when we were in there. Definitely would come again!
M. K.
Food was lovely, service was quick. Highly recommend!
J. F.
Great friendly service & lovely food.
J. W.
Lovely steak (fantastic) and very pleasant staff. The kids pasta dish was a little bland so she didn't enjoy it but other than that it was excellent.
N. H.
Tonight was our first visit to the restaurant. My fiancée booked if for my birthday and we had a really great evening. The lady that looked after us (wish I’d asked for her name) was absolutely lovely and nothing was too much, even with how blantany busy she was. Would really like her employers to be informed of her excellent service so our booking was at 19:15 under the name Lee Jamieson. We will definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to our return visit.
B. R.
Highly recommend this place to anyone who is a lover of steak. I have been to a few steak houses before but I can say without a doubt that this is the best.
The steak I ordered was cooked to perfection and the sides and starter were delicious.l as well as the desert. It's pricey but you get what you pay for without a doubt. The staff are lovely and knowledgeable about the place they work at and the place itself was warm and welcoming. Will definitely be coming back again in the future
H. S.
Great service and lovely food, the beef dripping butter was divine. It was very loud though as it was very busy.

Had my birthday meal here tonight. Couldn't wait to leave a review. Nico was an amazing server, food was amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better meal. Thank you miller and carter!

Fantastic service as always would reccomend highly. Served by Jordon.

Fabulous service,wonderful food.
Exceeded all expectations.
Long awaited Miller and carter experience.
Hopefully won't be so long before we can go again!
Thank you for such a lovely evening xx

I made a mistake with booking online and instead of 4 people I had put 2, we also arrived 35 mins early and they still accommodated us.
Only four people are to enter the doorway and you wait to be greeted by a member of staff. Hand sanitiser is available.
Unfortunately, I did not get the persons name who greeted us, but he was so polite and helpful. The drinks were brought to the table on a tray and left for us to take ourselves, all serving was carried out either on trays or the waiter/waitress used a serviette to hold things to bring to the table. All staff had masks at all times.
The restaurant appears to be doing everything possible to safeguard the staff and visitors - I felt very comfortable in the restaurant.
I was very impressed with how everything were managed and would definitely recommend.
Food was lovely as well 😁
B. N.
Food was well presented and as always lovely. My steak was cooked perfectly.
Staff was very friendly. Really enjoyed the night

Absolutely fabulous food!!!! Try the lobster tail with your steak!!! Top marks

First time in this restaurant and it's a really nice setting. From the minute we walked in the staff were really nice, friendly and professional. We had sharing platters to start and they were absolutely delicious, especially the fish one. We had a really nice bottle of red wine which was very reasonably priced. Three of us ordered the beef rib but when it came it was very dry and a bit tough. When we mentioned this, we were immediately offered an alternative and when our steaks then arrived they were cooked to perfection and delicious. Linda attended our table and was really great😀.
Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

Came on Xmas Eve for a meal with family. Arrived for our booking a few minutes early, but our table was ready and decorated lovely. The server was fantastic, the food was incredible and would definitely be back. Seeing how well the team worked together and how great the service was was great.
S. W.
A selection of steaks cooked to your likeness. Compared to other chain restaurants above par of good quality, reasonably seasoned and presented. It was not however great and beaten by independents for preparation and flavour. You recieve half a lettuce pre steak which was new. The staff were attentive and operated good safety measures which is important at this time. Overall a good experience.
M. S.
This was our first ever visit here this lunchtime and it certainly won't be the last. The staff were very friendly and our server Nico was exceptional. He was fantastic and made sure everything was OK for us. The food was hot and very tasty and presentation was brilliant. We did not feel rushed in any way and the timing between courses was spot on. This was for my mother in laws birthday and they even piped 'happy birthday' on her dessert. Overall a very pleasurable experience and will definitely be coming back soon. Thank you to you all
p. w.
We had an amazing evening. Starting off with being greated by Fabio with a smile making us both feel very welcome. He escorted us to our table introducing us to our waitress Emily who introduced herself to us, got our drinks straight away. Our order was taken smoothly she explained the difference between the steaks.
She was very knowledgeable, nothing was too mush much trouble.
The food was fresh very tasty..the whole experience was one we will be repeating soon.
Thank you to all the staff
A. B.
Just had our first order to order and collect. I can only say amazing. Missed eating there. Amazing food and was all cooked to perfection and warm. Can’t wait till you open

Loved the lunch menu deal, great food and a nice clean restaurant, highly recommended.
D. W.
Visiting on the Saturday of a Bank Holiday is, perhaps, not the best time to go out for a meal but if that's when a birthday falls sobeit. Really busy, with people turning up without reservations politely turned away. Despite this the level of service did not suffer with each course arriving without any long delays. Food excellent as ever with fillet steak my chosen main course. Excellent! Will happily eat there again
X. H.
Although the food tasted very nice, they served me the wrong steak and tried to hide it hoping I wouldn’t notice. I didn’t want to wait any longer for the food so didn’t say anything. Waiter was also very pushy, maybe because it was busy.
C. B.
This was a treat 4 my birthday with my best friend, she booked it.
Oh yummy!! Staff friendly, helpful, efficient. Restaurant well laid out 4 social distancing. Loved the fixed lunch menu. Food was hot, delicious, tasty, gd portions 4 a lunch menu, well presented. Will defo go again. Thank u.
N. B.
Food was excellent, atmosphere great, service superb, my only criticism is they hadn't swept under our table, there was food debry on the floor.
L. D.
Very nice restaurant. The staff were very helpful & courteous. Lovely setting, very modern & well looked after. Food was spot on & the set menu was great value. Good provisions for those with mobility issues. I'd definitely recommend this place & look forward to going back again soon.
D. P.
Fabulous meal, not one thing to complain about, starters lovely, steaks perfect & the staff were great too, very attentive. The night was made even better with my favourite dessert too... Custard!!! Thank you Miller & Carter we had a great meal, highly recommended, we WILL be back. 👌👍
D. G.
I love going here, the menu could have been written just for me! I have been here quite a few times now and I have never had a bad meal. The level of cooking is excellent on a range of beautiful ingredients that really makes for a truly great meal out. Very good value for money for what feels like a real treat night out.
C. S.
Brilliant meal for a birthday celebration. Waiting staff were fab. They even took a main meal off of the bill for one member of our party who felt unwell and sadly had to leave early.
Great evening as always! We will definitely be back again... as usual!
T. S.
Great food, and the best waiter ever named James!
D. D.
The staff were friendly and very nice. Good food, will go again.

Was my daughters first choice of place to eat after extended long down and the safety measures were great, we felt safe as she’s higher risk, our waiter was very helpful. Food was great. Would recommend
L. S.
Fantastic service adequate portion nice atmosphere
M. D.
The service was great and the food was delicious
S. K.
Loved our meal here! We went on a Thursday evening and enjoyed a three course meal from the date night menu. Steak was cooked to perfection and was delicious. The atmosphere is romantic and cosy despite it being a busy popular place. Will be back again for steak I'm sure.
J. H.
Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the food was excellent as always as I would expect from Miller & Carter
R. H.
Perfectly cooked steak (I went for medium rare), among an array of other dishes.
I went in a group of seven people from work, arriving around 6:30. We received prompt device to an excellent standard. Our waitress in particular was very friendly and welcoming, even when the restaurant got busier later on.
Excellent overall experience, and I will definitely be returning!
(PS, get the mini eton mess and coffee deal for dessert. It was to die for!)
L. W.
Very nice, busy but the waiters were very fast and food was out in good time.
The candles were a nice touch as it set the mood when the lights dimmed.
Only negative feedback I have is my partner had a 16 oz ribeye and there was so much gristle and it was under cooked. She asked for a medium but it was bleeding more than mine which was a medium rare. Being too polite and not wanting to come across as rude we didn't finish but asked for the bill instead.
C. S.
I've been here several times food was good up until the last two visits, considering this is a steak restaurant my last two visits were very disappointing the steaks being tough and fatty with very little actual meat worth eating
R. A.
Amazing food. My steak wasn't done the way I like it and it was taken back quickly and easily. Amazing service.
D. J.
We like the food here generally but it can vary in quality. E.g. today the 'toast' that came with my mushroom starter consisted of dried bread that had been warned up. No colour from grilling was apparent. The rest of the meal was good. Sometimes it also takes longer to get the bill that it takes to eat the food. We will go back as, especially the lunch menu, is good value and the staff are very friendly.
k. w.
Really great service and good quality food trying to keep 2m distances when possible. our waitress was really polite and friendly
C. S.
A brilliant date night - fantastic steak and great fun service.
Joe recommended the 50 day aged rib eye, and he wasn’t wrong. It was absolutely beautiful - really nicely cooked and a real depth of flavour.
If you like good service and great steak, this is the place to eat!
c. L.
Lovely food and staff very perlite
R. W.
Very good with covid awareness. Bin was overflowing which was a little off putting, but if we had been seated elsewhere we wouldn't have seen this. My steak was a little chewing, which you dont expect with fillet, but my husband steak was cooked just right, and absolutely lovely. The app they have to book a table, pay your bill and earn rewards is a really good idea.
C. R.
Great food and service as always. Just popped to Tollgate for a bit of shopping and the lure of the steak House won us over for a late lunch early dinner..
S. A.
Booked a table online easily, great service and atmosphere. Food was outstanding and we will definitely be back. Xxx
E. B.
Food is good, gluten free menu is extensive. Staff are polite but not very attentive. General ambience says business causal, but I wouldn't say it's that at all, it's say it's pretty casual. Good bar options but not exceptionally made. good for an average night out and decent food but nothing to write home about
G. C.
Food was delicious and the staff was beyond helpful and polite. 100% recommend!
G. B.
The low key ambience, clean surroundings and the consistent high level of service does set Miller & Carter apart from most of the venues in Colchester. This is at a price; dining experiences don't come cheap there. In today's discount culture is unlikely you'll be finding them on your savings app of choice, which (in theory) means you're paying for what you get - good quality steak, aged and of a premium cut.
Our four sirloins had a minimum of wastage, with only one of them featuring a couple of small pieces of gristle, the meat was very tender and succulent, although a little salty. The accompaniments were tasty, although both the onion and the chips did cool quite quickly.
As a starter the calamari was delicious, with a generous portion. The same for dessert, a good sized brownie. The cookies and ice cream wasn't as we expected (not ice cream on a large cookie) although it was tasty enough.
Overall it was a very pleasant dining experience and we would return again, when there is the need for a more premium venue and food option.
P. W.
Great place, all of our steaks were cooked perfectly, service excellent, if I were to be critical the sides and one of the starters could have been hotter. Great nachos, well done and thank you
B. H.
Excellent meal. Shiny modern dark wood, chromium and glass decor. Spotlessly clean. Warm welcome from enthusiastic staff. Best fillet steak I have had, possibly ever. Not cheap, but reasonable considering the quality.
M. B.
Me and my wife came here tonight and it was a wonderful meal. We both had the 12oz rib eye, the sauces and accompaniments were delicious (especially the onion slab) and deserts also didn't disappoint. Service was excellent and prices were also fine for this standard. Will definitely be back.
H. W.
We visited miller and Carter colchester for our sons 21st, we had an amazing evening from start to finish, the food was lovely. Our steaks perfectly cooked. Atmosphere was great. Cocktails a must. The staff were very friendly. Thank you for perfect evening. Highly recommended ❤️ the singing of happy birthday from the staff was fun!!! Value for money will definitely go back.
J. R.
Lovely meal last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The staff were amazing and the food was superb thank you !!
K. D.
Menu was not usual full due to seasonal menu but still had a banging sirloin. Also loving the new non alcoholic drinks (Sidlip)
S. G.
Absolutely stunning food & Scott who served us was 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Will be back soon
S. W.
Even though it wasn't busy service was slow they also didn't give us any water we asked for and I didn't get the garlic mushrooms I ordered with my steak . I asked for medium but got medium rare. Also in one of the starters we had we found a shard of porcelain - luckily no harm done . Having said that ambience was good and everything was very clean. Don't know if I'll return
S. P.
Lovely restaurant, good ambience. Friendly helpful staff. Service seems to have sped up a bit since our last visit a few months ago. The food is excellent, reasonably priced for that type of establishment. Booking recommended although not always necessary in quieter times.
J. A.
We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at the Miller and Carter at Colchester today, we both had 10oz Sirloin steaks which were succulent, tender and very well cooked. The service was excellent and we were made to feel very welcome. Will definitely go back again.
L. O.
Very nice waiter very attentive butchers block was very nice
R. C.
After bad experience at Chiquito Colchester we go to this restaurant. Just can say perfect. Nice place and good food. Server was very polite and look after us. We have no book table but gentleman at front door he sort table for us. Definitely recommend.
D. R.
Undoubtedly a nice restaurant, and as long as one likes steak, you are well catered for. Its a bit pricey in my honest opinion but still enjoyable. What I find astonishing, is the lunchtime clientele that allow their kids to run amok throughout the restaurant. This is a pricey eatery and I expect a great dining experience for the price, and whilst i have no objection to children being taken along, it would be much more respectful to everyone if they at least behaved. Not sure I would return until the evening sitting in future.
h. p.
Excellent service, lovely atmosphere, great food. Can't say anything else!

This is the first time we have been to this restaurant and we were not disappointed the food was perfect and the service was impeccable... definitely go back there again...5star xxxx

This review is so good you'll think I'm lying.
Girlfriend and I arrived about half an hour early for our reservation but we were given the option of a drink at the bar or being seated immediately. We were both quite hungry so opted for food.
Upon being seated and having genial conversation with one of the managers a drinks order was taken. I chose a Virgin cocktail (driving) and my girlfriend went all out for the long Island iced tea.
Our waiter was friendly and joked with us which really settled us into the vibe of the place.
Cocktails arrived really quickly and they were followed with a sharing platter and our mains.
I had the fillet, my girlfriend the slow roast beef rib. Honestly, my fillet was the thing of fantasy, rare, so perfectly rare just a teasing of heat on the outside and perfectly juicy on the inside. I could've kissed the chef.
Girlfriend really enjoyed her rib commenting that it was full of flavour.
Decided against dessert as we were absolutely stuffed. Bill came to £70 which I felt was reasonable so I added another £10 for the staff member.
It's been so long since I've had such good food and brilliant service I even raised the point as I left.
The only thing I could possibly find fault with was the timing between starter and main was quite quick but otherwise I'm well impressed. Will definitely be back again and again.

Came for lunch today with family and the service from start to finish was excellent. The food was lovely and the staff gave brilliant customer service especially to my elderly parents, one of whom has Alzheimer's and they were very kind to him. Will definitely be coming back .
R. “. C.
Great place for steak 🥩and a great menu for families too. Children are welcome and even have their own menu to keep them happy. The are helpful and seem to be able to satisfy everyone. I always eat my steak rare but I have to say that it's not easy getting it right for everyone. When my son queried the condition of his medium steak they didn't do what most restaurants do and just reheat it, they cooked it again and met all of our expectations with a completely new plate of food. It's small details and the attention to detail that make all the difference between just using a place once and returning again or referring to others.
S. G.
Went on Easter Sunday for lunch. Excellent quality of service, with the staff being friendly but not in your face all the time. The food quality was also very high, the steak I had was great, and my wife was happy with her salmon. I would also recommend the Miller Chocolate Orange to finish off the meal, very rich but the orange sorbet balances it nicely.
S. T.
Absolutely amazing!! This is fast becoming my favourite restaurant. (I would go for a treat more often if it was cheaper) the service is always very good with polite, friendly and very helpful staff. Nothing is ever too much trouble.
C. P.
Fab place. Had a brilliant evening, lovely ambience, fantastic food, fantastic service. Very well looked after by the ever patient Emily! Thank you!!
S. H.
Lovely restaurant, I had a bad experience at another restaurant before, however this restaurant soon changed my opinion. Our server was lovely, efficient, knew the menu well, guided those who had never been before well. The food was superb, cooked exactly to request & one of the nicest steaks I've had in Essex. Spotlessly clean, prompt service, lovely atmosphere & overall a fabulous restaurant.
S. O.
Absolutely amazing. Every mouthful was pure bliss. Staff was welcoming and attentive. The place itself was lovely and clean. Cannot wait to go back as it was the best meal out I've ever had! Highly recommended. 😍
D. W.
Service was excellent with pleasant staff calmly and politely getting it just right. Restaurant clean and tidy and toilets the same. Food up to the standard I expect from this chain (unlike the Chelmsford outlet) and no long waits for either starter or main course. Used the lunch menu which is really good value. Will happily go here again
J. H.
Absolutely loved it beautiful in side clean fantastic service food was excellent I will 100% call again.

First time at this restaurant, had a great meal ,good service, very polite and pleasant waitress called Ellie,
A. B.
Staff are fine. Food ok. Unfortunately their rules stating casual smart are not adhered to as jeans and jogging bottoms blatantly on view. We made an effort to look smart casual so we're a little perplexed. Tables for two are close together and the noise was a bit to much. Not disgruntled but not what we thought.
P. B.
First experience and thoroughly enjoyed. Fast efficient and friendly service. Good venue. Good food and drink although I'm not sure the 50 day aged steak was as a knockout. Have tasted better, but it was still good
J. M.
Good food and friendly staff.
A. T.
Very friendly staff. Lovely food. Well worth a visit but a bit pricey. Take your AA card for a 20% discount. The tandoori lamb was very tasty but avoid the cheese. The fruit isn't fresh and the biscuits like cardboard. Give that a miss.
M.
Great food, great service
T. H.
Great staff and better food! 🥩
E. C.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Ok prices. Served a group of ten efficiently, and humoured a few tipsy jokes on the drinks. Limited veggie choices - the two veggies in our group had a choice of 1, roasted aubergine which neither finished as it was dry and needed something to accompany it.

11 of us came on a saturday evening (6pm) for a family birthday meal. Having never been before I was a little nervous -wanted everyone to have a brilliant meal- and I must say we were NOT disappointed. The atmosphere was good , comfortable ,fun but also cosy we weren't all on top of each other, service was prompt we don't wait long for our meals despite it being really busy . The food wen it came was delicious everyone said it was the best steak they'd had I personally had thw sea bass it was delicious, we had cake after and they all sang happy birthday so all in all absolutely brilliant . Thankyou all for a fabulous night we'll definitely be back
L. C.

This place was absolutely amazing. The service is so welcoming and the place was spotless, and the view outside was just as good as it was inside. The steak was so flavourful and the presentation was spot on. I would highly recommend going there.

Great food, great staff and lovely atmosphere, expensive but woth it
D. C.
Lovely steak, lovely ribs. Nice atmosphere. In a large party of 10 or so might get your order muddled up and end up with the wrong thing but it was Christmas and stressful busy time of the year so will give them benefit of the doubt on this one.
P. B.
Great service, happy staff, great food, even made me a drink that wasn't on the menu
P. A.
Emily is absolutely fantastic, a perfect people person. We have just sat down in the restaurant and she remembers us from 3 months ago. Amazing, friendly service from an absolute superstar.. Well done Miller & Carter for employing such a brilliant person..
N. G.
Eaten here on several occasions and never had a bad meal . The service has always been first class . I always have the fillet steak and it's always cooked to perfection . Good selection of drinks and according to my wife good wine . I would definitely recommend .
D. R.
Spur of the moment dinner didn't get here until 10.15pm and they still served us! Was absolutely shocked... amazing service gorgeous food we both had fillet and it was the best i had tasted in a very long time, everyone was really happy and the restaurant looked awesome really good atmosphere. Think our waitress was Emily really polite bubbly girl 😊
