I have been several times and have never been disappointed. We recently were lucky enough to have the Indian menu which was superb, especially the Indian style fish and chips! Would definitely recommend the Dining Club to anyone who enjoys high quality food and a friendly atmosphere. Thanks Suzanne and Scotty for a guaranteed good night out every time!
The Dining Club is a minor miracle created in a compact town house in the heart of Deal. We took over the whole place and filled it with friends and family for a celebration event. Suzanne helped us chose a menu that had all of our favourite fishy things. The chef even managed to whip up a no-dairy menu for one. Being able to bring your own wine is a huge bonus. The food is excellent value and really delicious. Particularly outstanding was the bouillabaise and main dish of whiting. All in all a wonderfully civilised evening. The joy of the Dining Club is that the menu is different every time. So if you read carefully you'll know what you're getting. You may not love everything but there are always inventive vegetarian options too. Portions are not huge, but that's a good thing. There's plenty to eat and it's all delicious. Take a chance and I'm sure you'll be back for more. I know we will. Brian
We live locally and have been quite a few times.
Obviously food is the main thing and it's fantastic. Really interesting too.
But I think the point to note is it's such a different experience from a standard restaurant. Like having a chef's taster menu, lots of small courses and you choose to go on a night where the menu is up your street.
Really though, the fun is having dishes cooked and brought to you that you might not have chosen. It's so interesting trying new combinations . You feel exceptionally well looked after throughout. A bit like going to a really good chef's house for a dinner party I suppose.
Very reasonable for what it is and the hard work that's gone in to every menu.
Do yourself a favour, get a list of menus, choose a night that suits you, and have a wonderful treat of an evening.
Fabulous fishy Sunday lunch. Every time we go, we enjoy it more and more. Always different and interesting flavours. Thank you everyone for another wonderful meal
This place is amazing! Wasn't sure what to expect, but the staff were very attentive, and the food was delicious. Even though it's being your own booze, the service that is offered to accommodate your needs is excellent. Would definitely recommend becoming a member.
This is the second time we have eaten here and the food was superb - every dish was delicious and cooked to perfection. Staff are lovely, too.
Had a lovely Saturday night dinner here at end of January - imaginative dishes (first mouthfuls were duck and cherry sausage..delicious) brilliantly executed. Vegetarian and dietary needs catered for with care. Lovely balanced menu, personal, attentive, efficient service.... it's another winner dinner!
Wow, just wow!
I absolutely loved my experience at Dining Club.
Such a warm, welcoming restaurant with food that I have been thinking about since my visit (Scottie’s dishes have even inspired me to try making his dinners myself)
If you’re looking for a dining experience to remember, with a fresh, delicious menu that changes with the seasons then I highly recommend 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Christmas celebration with friends from a local micro pub so occupied all tables over 3 floors of the restaurant. Delicious food (preselected) impeccably presented and served, rooms tastefully decorated for Christmas. No alcohol licence, so reasonable corkage charged. Overall, excellent evening, and would love to join as a member for 2023. Hope to visit again soon!
Just a fantastic evening.
Everything was thought of and done professionally. Excellent menu ours was nose to tail. Such good value. Left glowing, which is very rare in uk these days.
What a brilliant thing. The staff and venue top quality and the food delicious.
Amazing place. I'll return again to try new menù
