I have visited this beautiful restaurant twice in the last two weeks. Both times to try their amazing value three course meal. The mussels and the sauce were divine and the fish and chips to follow were also fresh and full of flavour. I even managed to fit in a couple of scoops of delicious ice cream to follow. The staff are efficient and friendly and the decor is very sophisticated. We will be back.

Staff were very friendly and attentive, they made us feel very welcome. The food was great, especially the bouillabaisse and the lobster, and thoroughly enjoyed the fish and chips too. Didn’t have enough room for dessert so they packed it up for us to take home. Thank you!

Visited for a birthday dinner. Really impressed with the decor / ambience, lovely staff and delish menu. Decided on a small fish & chips which was the perfect midweek size (would go regular on a weekend!!). Couldn’t fault it! Will be back for oysters next time !

Quality. Quality. Quality. From the fabulous warm welcome as we arrived (they were doing a complimentary glass of Prosecco on the night we ate), to the lovely, professional and attentive service - this place is an absolute gem. Best of all though was the quality of the food. That, after all, is the reason you go out to eat... We had a range of dishes - all fantastic - but, the standouts were the Bouillabaisse (perfect level of spicy heat, soft flaky fish and layers of flavour) to start, the Fish Pie (crammed full of the freshest fish, creamy mash and held together with a delicious sauce) and the Sicilian Cheesecake (absolutely delicious). This is a place that deserves to really well - quality ingredients, cooked with absolute care and served by people who want you to enjoy your visit. Thoroughly recommend.
