    The food was plentiful and very tasty. There was a noisy party in at the same time so we couldn't talk quietly, if we were in a large party, I think it would have been good. Overall, good food and good for largish parties.

    So please we booked this, probably the best steak I have ever eaten, getting to cook it on the hot stone meant you could always have a hot piece and when you want it, and cooked how you specifically like it, it was quite pricey but worth it, the atmosphere is lively and romantic at the same time, it does get hot down there and this might be our new favourite place to go for steak on special occasions. No complaints with staff just didn't have anything pop out as being extra special. so that's why I don't mark it a 10. Highly recommend and just be careful not to burn your tongue on the garlic butter!!

    We eat out very little. The service, ambiance and cleanliness were great. I didn't use the toilets BTW. Friendly helpful staff and the food was great. Second time and again fab. Beautifully presented too. We should've taken pictures. Well done chef 👩‍🍳👏 My rib eye steak, medium/rare was beautiful. No gristle at all. The presentation was amazing 👏 Thank you for a great meal and great service, made my birthday.

    To celebrate an anniversary,my husband may no longer be with us but together as a family we celebrated our anniversary, the staff are quietly understand and seated us at our usual table with a happy anniversary sign, it's those little touches that make all the difference as an individual customer. The food as always is top quality, every dish we had was amazingly tasty, onion rings, halloumi, prawns, mac n cheese to start then salmon on the stone, chicken burger & beef burger & kid, nuggets all devine, thank you to all staff for a great tasty night out!

    We visited this restaurant on Saturday and was blown away! The food and staff are amazing! I was so full but didn't want to leave the steak I had left as I was enjoying it so much. Would definitely return and would recommend Black Rock to anyone who is by Clacton-On-Sea pier to book.

    Staff was a bit slow as I had to ask for water from 3 different waiters Woo woo cocktail was far to sweet and to much cranberry juice Three of us had the grill salmon with it was cooked to long so was dry and the potion size was to big it was dish up with carrots where as it should have been with something green ie broccoli, French beans etc ...xxx

    Online menu isn't correct, went in for ribs and they aren't available anymore, so went for a steak skillet. Food was fantastic despite being something I didn't originally fancy.

    Kieran and the team are so attentive and welcoming. The food is cooked fresh to order with locally sourced ingredients. My Mum is disabled and she is really cared for getting in and out of the Restaurant.
