As always - really good. Top quality. Consistent with our last 10 visits for eat in and take-away. The best burgers I've ever had, but also, best messy fries too.

Been a couple of times now as part of trips with the kids to the coast. Both times the food and service has been top notch. Excuse my child in the picture as he couldn't hold back from eating his food!

We regularly have delivery and these guys are great. They have best tasting burgers around and chips so hot they burn your tongue.

Messy chef is an amazing local restaurant. It has a nice cosy atmosphere, attentive staff and delicious food. There is street parking available. All the food is halal. We got the messy hot dog, loaded beef nachos, and classic wings. The portion sizes are extremely good. As well as the messy burger and milkshakes. The messy burger was my favourite. The smashed patties are cooked to perfection and it is well seasoned. Juicy burger. Their shakes are really good too, good flavour and they don’t dilute the chocolate. The staff were very good, food came out very fast. Food was delicious. Price was okay too. They off NHS discount 10%. They also have kombucha as a drink option. Overall a great restaurant and I’ll definitely be back!

A Smash Hit of Flavor at Messy Chef! I recently had the pleasure of dining at Messy Chef, and I must say, it was a burger experience like no other. Located in the heart of Portsmouth, this place has mastered the art of the smash burger, and I left with taste buds dancing. The star of the show was undoubtedly their smash burger. The perfectly seasoned patty was pressed to perfection, resulting in a mouthwatering crispy exterior and juicy interior. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, with the cheese melting into the meat, and the toppings adding just the right amount of crunch and freshness. The menu offers a variety of burger options to cater to different preferences. The Messy Chef signature sauce is a must-try – it added a delightful tangy kick to my burger. The atmosphere in the restaurant was cozy and inviting, with friendly staff who were passionate about their craft. It's clear that they take their burgers seriously, and it shows in every bite. If you're a burger enthusiast like me, do yourself a favor and make your way to Messy Chef. It's a burger haven that delivers on both taste and quality. I can't wait to go back and explore more of their delicious offerings. Messy Chef gets a solid 5 stars in my book!

We were craving burgers and this was the first place we came across. My chicken burger was the best I have ever had, and my partner throughly enjoyed his beef one. We also had the beef topped nachos which were delicious. Lovely quirky establishment, and the owner was very friendly and chatty. Will definitely visit again the next time we are in Portsmouth.

What an absolute gem of a place. Booked in yesterday after reading the reviews and honestly it very much lived up to the hype. The two owners were the most loveliest of guys, humble, knowledgable and just so much passion for the food and the industry they are in! The wings are outrageously crispy and juicy and the burger was a proper get your hands messy type of dish. Just incredibly yummy. 100% worth the visit, will be returning as soon as we can!
