The views are incredible! We ere able to see a seal while we are eating! The food is good. We have ordered fish and chips, hot seafood, whole (the best dish) and the starters squid, oysters and salmon. The desserts are good too. It’s so expensive but all its good.

Highly recommend.
The food and service was fantastic. And the view 'over' the water is simply beautiful.
We loved it!
Note: suggest reservation. We had walked in. And appreciated getting a table. As the restaurant filled up very quickly.

This is a fabulous restaurant which benefits from a panoramic view of the harbour and the bay and enjoys beautiful sunsets.  The service is great and the staff are welcoming and friendly.  As for the food - the Chowder was all I hoped for and the fish pie superb.  You can tell a good restaurant, when the diners are not eating, they are smiling.  Would definitely recommend.

Great view. The staff is very nice and accommodated us without a reservation. A little disappointed with the amount of food but we only ordered two starters, so I guess it was ok. Felt like a fancy restaurant, with good quality but maybe little amount for the price you pay, compared to others we tried.

Our food was quite good for the most part. Unfortunate that the lovely waiter was having what appeared to be a horrible day and decided to have a consistent bad attitude with us for absolutely no reason. His negativity ruined the whole vibe of the meal and we will not be back. It is FREE to be kind, or even give the slightest bit of respect to your customers.
