Oreya Southampton

I went for dinner with my wife, to celebrate our 6th anniversary. Firstly we were told about this place by a friend of ours, and she said it isn't a romantic place, its meant for partying. We thought we would go there anyways seeing as we like a little party. We got there at 9.00 pm and our friend was right, the DJ was playing loud music, the bar was full of attractive people harassing the two bar tenders for more drinks. Our booking was for 9.00 but, the table wasn't ready yet, manager Max sat us down at a bar table and offered us a glass of champagne to celebrate. (it was in their notes that it was our anniversary). Roughly 10 minutes later we were told that the table is ready, Max came to get us and sat us at a beautifully decorated table with roses on it. The second we sat down, Max refilled our champagne glasses, these french know how to party. The menu is perfect size, not overwhelming but enough to choose from. There is also a good balance of meat, fish and vegetarian options. My wife and I shared few starters (tuna cigars, hummus and crispy octopus), they are all delicious and I was impressed by the speed at which they came out. As a main I had the salmon and it was good but nothing out of this world. For dessert they sent us a small cake to share with a happy anniversary note written on it. Great Touch. After dinner we moved to the outdoor lounge and enjoyed the rest of the evening with dancing and drinking. Would definitely recommend this place to people looking for a good crowd and party. I hear they also do day parties by the pool, something to check out this summer.

Great Food, it was packed when we arrived, so we had to wait a little bit. But very soon service started and it all worked out well. The atmosphere was very loose and therefore a good place for friends and famiily
