The 21 Best Restaurants In Margate - London - The Infatuation

"Margate’s Harbour Arm is the place to be on a glorious day. It’s a little bit secluded, still a ripe suntrap and, most importantly, has the best tacos in town. Dive, a tiny weekend-only Mexican spot, is refreshingly straightforward in what it does: margaritas, a single fresh fish taco, and a gooey quesadilla. And all of it is done expertly. The sole taco is fresh white fish—grilled with a char—plus a layer of pickled red onion and radishes. The subtle hit of paprika combines with a squeeze of lime and a swig of cadillac margarita to make the juiciest bite of all time." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

Great food! Definitely worth trying. The smash/fried potatoes and the prawns were amazing.

Food was lovely and I could tell that the ingredients used were of high quality as well as a lot of thought and skill went into creating this small menu and into preparation. However, it was overpriced for the size of portions and what you get for your money, which goes for both food and drinks. The interior was really nice, but like some other reviewers mentioned, there is very little room behind the tables. Would like to visit again, but sadly don't think we can afford it.

Bold flavours, creative cooking all round good time. We really enjoyed the restaurant decoration, the service provided and most of all the delicious food and cocktails. We’ll definitely be returning.

Beautifully designed restaurant in the centre of Margate. Mexican inspired menu with some interesting but slightly unusual combinations. We had the cheeseburger taco - admittedly it was tasty. Came for the fish taco but unfortunately it wasn't on the menu. The tortilla chips were freshly made and the guacamole was well seasoned. The bigger plates (lamb neck and chicken wings) were banging. Everything we ate had big punchy flavours. Margaritas were great too!

Have visited two times now and feel there are pros and cons. Pros: -Absolutely delicious, fresh tortilla chips and guacamole. YUM! -Great cocktails -Cool atmosphere and happy to have such a cool place on the high street Cons: -Very pricey for what you get. Wish they would give 2 tacos per order and have more large plate options -Pretty adventurous, saw beef taco and ordered without reading description (my fault) thought it tasted funny and turns out it’s Ox heart! Confirmed it’s not my favorite dish… -Wish it was more spacious, they really cram you in! I’ll keep trying it out as the menu changes and I think they’ll keep improving!

Thoroughly lovely spot, had the best chilled out Sunday lunch here everything was outstanding. Service extremely friendly, flavours were incredible and I thought very good portions and pricing. Couldn't fault it, so glad this is a short stroll up the high street, can't wait to come back for dinner.
