Smiths restaurant in Ongar, Essex prides itself on its motto “Famous for Fish”. Since opening it's doors in 1994, they have built a reputation for quality and attention to detail. Mention Smith’s to their wide ranging clientele and the quality of service provided will feature nearly as strongly as the tantalising cuisine. Smith's reputation for fish has grown over the years and they have become recognised as one of the finest sea food restaurants in Essex.

The beautifully layed out restaurant, with cool air conditioning in the summer and log fires in the winter, makes Smith's an ideal setting for dining all year round. Located just off the A414 (4 Wantz roundabout) the restaurant is easy to find and with a large car park located on the side of the restaurant parking is never a problem .With subtle mood lighting, timber beams and soft warm décor walking into Smith's is welcoming and relaxing and the well planned seating arrangement allows for either intimate dining or larger arrangements for groups.

With a well balanced menu, offering an extensive line of sea food as well as dishes like Aberdeenshire Fillet Steak and Glazed Honey and Cinnamon Barbary Duck Breast (for the less nautically inclined customers) the only problem you might have with Smith's is what to choose. The Front of House is run by an enthusiastic and informed staff, whilst the kitchens are managed under the watchful eye of Head Chef, Stephen Li. The Smith’s team try to ensure your visit is a memorable one and one that you will wish to repeat. Dining at Smiths is a pleasure.
