Reviews in Norfolk

Where do I begin.Away on holiday & was recommended this place by locals as I was looking for somewhere special to celebrate a really special birthday & the menu was what I was looking for.Greated by a lovely girl,seated us,all ok.A young man took our order,one which was a sharing platter and asked for it to come out with the mains along with a starter to do the same also.Drinks arrived,but cocktails took longer as made in another part of the restaurant.15 minutes later the sharing platter arrived,the blooming onion was completely inedible.Swimming in oil & tasted of burnt oil,as where the chicken strips. Waited a few minutes thinking the rest of the meals would be coming out, nothing came.Waited patiently,still nothing,then eventually we asked what was happening with our food. Apologies,it's been ordered to be served asap.We sat and watch people come and go food served almost immediately,still nothing.This went on for almost 2 hours.We was almost at the point of leaving when another waitress came and explained what had happened.Although it wasn't directly her fault,the staff knew we still hadn't received our food but was left. 20.50 our food was finally being cooked (we arrived at 7 with a young child) The waitress was very kind and managed to get us a round of drinks and our food arrived. By this point we had filled up on beverages we were past being hungry so had to ask to take it away. The ribs where nice but the rest wasn't really edible,very greasy & left smelling of cooking oil & really disappointed Which is such a shame,as would of been the perfect place. I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon or recommending to anyone visiting the beautiful caister-on-sea,but wish i had got the young ladies name as she was a star

I wish I could rate this restaurant 6/5. The food is delicious, the staff so friendly and professional, and the atmosphere is just right for a romantic dinner as well as dinner with friends. This was my third time coming to Jorges and I will continue to book this restaurant in the future.

A really enjoyable evening, lovely food and very good service from the staff. Keep up the good work

Excellent food & service To many chips ! Could do with something to put all the bones in etc, staff very helpful, soon brought a dish. Things get a little messy, so larger & better quality serviettes would be useful.

Absolutely fantastic food,friendly helpful staff .if you havnt been before trust me go you will not be disappointed,

A really nice palate of meals for a family gathering .. A little pricey but the steaks were out of this world and the mixed grills resulted in empty clean plates. Service was polite and attentive and the meal prep time was good

Over in Norfolk on a holiday and booked in at the Smokehouse! What a night, amazing drinks and food with impeccable service though out the evening! If we were local it would be a regular! Definitely recommend to anyone planning a trip or more local (lucky!!) thank you to all the team great evening!!

Lovely meal at Jorges My favourite restaurant in Norwich glad to be able to seat inside and enjoy the atmosphere

We were looking for somewhere to eat at short notice, they were very accommodating and we were able to inside with our dog which is always a bonus Would like to return for a live music night next time we are in the area

It was our first visit to Jorge having cancelled our 2020 booking due to COVID. We were a party of 4. The young waiters were helpful but had little knowledge of the tapas menu it would seem. We were a little disappointed with the food in general. The first Tapas arrived made up of five dishes. The olives were excellent and so was the bread. The mussels were also excellent. The potatoes and prawns were uninspiring . We weren’t quite sure if more dishes were arriving so I ordered more bread to fill up. The second dishes then arrived. A piece of braised stewing beef without much flavour. Chicken breast with a piri piri sauce very much resembling Nando’s. The Chips were tasty and nicely presented. The house red wine was delicious as was the white wine. The almond tart with lavender ice cream was divine. As was the crepe brûlée and custard tarts. So in a nutshell some lovely food flavours but generally not sure we will return. Sorry Jorge.

Ordered 6 meals which 5 were lovely, the 6th was inedible. The sliders buns were completely Rick solid and the chicken slider tasted of so much oil it was sickening. Possibly as someone dropped the food on the way out of the kitchen and the replacement order was rushed. Reported to staff who said sorry but offered no replacements or refund. Poor service.

If you like BBQ food, you’ll love this place.!!

Great meals for all of us and great service. Definitely coming back soon

Had a lovely meal sitting in the courtyard on Tuesday evening finishing the occasion with a Portuguese tart! Very pleasant & helpful staff.
