"There are lots of seafood restaurants in Margate, but Angela’s is the best. It overlooks a bustling square, but inside there's a sense of calm. Plates of buttery lobster and turbot, and hearty lentils topped with goats’ cheese are ferried between tables. They go back to the kitchen empty, every last drop of sauce swept up by crispy Jersey potatoes and hunks of bread. Glasses of white wine are sipped as chatter and attention turns to sweet strawberries draped with light, creamy sabayon. Angela’s is all about excellent fish dishes, long lunches, and even longer dinners." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

"There are lots of seafood restaurants in Margate, but Angela’s is one of the best. It overlooks a bustling square where coffee shops spill out onto the street, but inside there's a sense of calm. Grey-blue tables have swirling divots that look like they could’ve been carved by waves, and simple, sea-green panelling is the only thing to distract your eye from the daily changing blackboard menu.

"Set just off the esplanade is this understated little bistro with a fiercely local, eco-friendly ethos – even the tables are made of compressed recycled plastic. With no meat on the menu, dishes are centred around sustainably caught seafood, be it Dover sole with green sauce or lobster with garlic butter. Simplicity is the key to the cooking, with the quality central ingredients allowed to shine thanks to just a few, well-judged accompaniments. The friendly service creates a pleasantly relaxed atmosphere." - Michelin Inspector
"Like Hantverk & Found, Angela’s is right up there with Margate’s finest modern seafood restaurants. It is marginally more spacious, a touch lighter and brighter, than H&F, but still cosy and homely, with the atmosphere of a front room. And like all good seafood restaurants, things change here all the time: “We have a daily changing menu depending on what is fresh from the boats that morning,” they say. That menu might include diver scallops, with almond and brown butter; gurnard with celeriac, wild garlic and shellfish sauce; or turbot served on the bone with hollandaise. A Margate must-visit." - Adam Coghlan
