    This is the third time we have eaten here in 6 weeks. Return because it has been consistently good. Great seafood and staff are very good despite being very busy.

    Food was excellent, I especially enjoyed the sides, roasted veg and tenderstem broccoli which were cooked to perfection. Service was also excellent, team were very observant and the wait time was minimal. The restaurant is nice and cozy especially on a cold windy winters day, my only issue with the space is that as a hearing aid wearer the acoustics in the restaurant are really loud and difficult ( sounds like being underwater in a metal bath🤣 ) I guess that's because it's a converted shipping container and there's not a lot of soft furnishings to soak up the sound, however, the quality of the food and overall experience makes it bearable.

    This restaurant stood out as one of the best we've visited due to its outstanding overall experience. The food was v. Good; we shared the seafood paella, which was not only very tasty but also quite filling especially after the yummy mushroom starter and popcorn mussels. The staff were friendly and attentive. Additionally, the atmosphere was nice, and the location by the beach was lovely.

    Food was delicious and the most fancy fish and chips we have eaten, the fish soup was delish. we were stuck behind a pillar so didn't see any views, we had good conversation so it didn't really matter. Food and wine was expensive, which I didn't mind however I did mind the 10% service charge sneakily put on the bill. Asked them to remove which they did as it wasn't compulsory .. did leave a bad taste in my mouth considering the food was so nice.

    Got vouchers for here for my birthday as had been wanting to visit for a while. Planned a Sunday lunch for a nice treat. The food was absolutely amazing! A real little gem right on the seafront, so beautiful views. Our waitress was very attentive. We had a really lovely time.
