"Probably the best so called traditional fish and chips I’ve had in very long time. The chips they were prepared and cooked beautifully the potatoes used were nice quality and not one bad chip on the generously sized plate. The potatoes were peeled yes removed no skin anywhere to be found and not one chip had a blemish ! The fish was nice size not to small not to large and was white fresh not flaky or dry and the batter was nice crispy golden brown a very good batter in todays world The mushy peas ! These are always contentious I come from where mushy peas were invented and used to be served alone with mint sauce ! But to be slightly critical they were too thick and not sweet enough, a little more runny and a little sweeter they would have been perfect. Bread and butter came with my order, nice and fresh bread though cut corner to corner, in a traditional fish and chip eatery it would be in half horizontally and served on a separate plate and not under the chips as was in this case. Minor point offer more than one slice good way to upsell The service in the restaurant, was brilliant the waitress was helpful and very friendly cheerful and reminded of a cockney welcome, everyone called “darling” she was great and certainly made a solo traveller welcome. The shop itself is a little confusing and door to the restaurant is on the corner of the building but like many other not knowing went into the takeaway side, when asked if eat in option available she looked at me like an alien and said yes just go through and someone will come to you ! Great information but didn’t say where to go so I almost ended in the back kitchen. A little more friendly like the waitress she would have been great and maybe a bit more welcoming, customer service nationally in Uk isn’t great compared to lots of other countries so be nice to prove it can be done! And definitely clearer instructions how to access the restaurant be very helpful If I can note some personal minor observations 1. Bread and butter served on separate plate 2. Give option or not for lemon wedge or tartare sauce save waste most don’t use or want it 3. Use mugs for tea or offer them 4. Mushy peas thin out the consistency and make very slightly sweeter can even sell on own with mint sauce ! Overall a very happy experience and would definitely recommend anyone to visit ! I noted lots of of prepared food in the warmers which means is a busy fish and chip shop and they fry appropriately unlike some on the island that make you wait outside for 10 minutes or more whilst they cook them ! My greatest note is that they clearly know how to prepare and cook fish and chips ! And I note as a takeaway they don’t put it in a box ! I think that’s as near traditional assigning today’s world. Thankyou for making my day by finding good food and as a single traveller Fish chips mushy peas bread and butter and generous freshly made tea for around £15 is good value on my book"

"Love this place and the staff. Great menu with lots of choice. Had a takeaway carvery for 2 as, why would I spend all Sunday afternoon in the kitchen for just me and him indoors??! Staff couldn't of been more helpful and accommodating with me and my fussy food choices. Chef is a happy chap. Nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend having a takeaway carvery. To be fair it's just as good sat in there but you'll need to book as it gets busy."

"the personal was very friendly, they had no tagbooks for coffee and made a delicious pumpkin seasoned ice-cold latte (in juli vegan food options include; vegan sausage and cheese panini, vegan cheese and wobbles chutney panini, vegan a waffel (toms, avo, sausage, cheese, balsamico drizzle), hummus we had the cheese and tweeper panini and the vegan a waffel. both were beautiful, the waffel reminded me a bit like a Yorkshire pid, only on the bottom is that the waffel could have done with a little saucy to go with it."

"Good pub type food served there. They were very welcoming and friendly; and also very accommodating in our food requests, as we adapted our menu choices slightly. The thing they excel in here though are the desserts. These are restaurant quality desserts and worth every penny in my opinion. Lavasa Coffees (including ones such as latte and cappachino) are also available here. They have made the decor look lovely in the section we sat in. It had a purple, white and silver theme with a slightly modern twist to it, which is unusual for a pub; but it was a very welcome change from the usual tired old grotty looks of other pub interiors I've seen elsewhere! I do hope they will consider to decorate at least the other end section in a similar way in the near future. Will definitely be back here before our holiday ends!"

With music and art to feed the heart and soul, friendly , smiley , slightly bonkers staff make for a practically magic atmosphere. Then of course there's the tap dancing dogs ....."

"Wow! After years of badly cooked vegetarian lasagne, the ubiquitous goats cheese tartlet and the dreadful mushroom risotto we struck so lucky with this amazing restaurant. I'm still reeling from the shock of such a superb meal with really original flavour combos. First course, a butternut squash veloute with truffle oil, feta crumbled into it and crispy thyme leaves on top. This tasted lovely, though I cook something similar at home and it wasn't outstanding. The second course was mushroom and chestnut risotto , but not as you know it! The risotto was cooked perfectly with a lovely deep flavour. But it came topped with toasted nuts and seeds, crispy parmesan crumb and crispy tiny pieces of dried,fried onion. ..absolutely delicious with layers of flavour and real depth. I'm afraid I ate it before I remembered the camera! Hu Third course was a fat cut of roasted celeriac flavoured with Ras el hanout, on top of a delicious mix of little green lentils and bulgar flavoured with lemon. Strips of perfectly al dente courgettes surrounded by smoked chilli sauce , a few chickpeas and blobs of pea puree lifted it to superb. The fourth course was a rissole of toasted polenta. I'm not a polenta fan, not liking the grittiness, but this was smooth and had a thin layer of Cheddar melted on top along with a big portion of black olive tapenade, all sitting on wilted spinach . It was all set off with an excellent pesto dressing and decorative blobs of carrot and pea purees and tiny picante peppers. The tapenade might have tasted sharper with Kalamata olives, but that is picking hairs. Pudding was superb and I couldn't finish it all. A long strip of dark and white chocolate delice lay next to a generous blob of salted toffee ice-cream and trails of caramel sauce. Blackberries contrasted with the sweetness along with delectable blobs of sour blood orange gel. How on earth can the duo who run this lovely place afford to produce such a superb meal for just £45? It is absolutely amazing value. I can't recommend it highly enough...do go!"

"We've been visiting for many years at different times for different meals. Breakfast, Brunch, Dinner's Ice Cream's, Cream Teas etc. This July we once again sampled some wonderful fare. Salt Beef baguettes, Breakfast baguettes, Seafood Platter, Bockwurst, Milkshakes. Muzza's has an EXTENSIVE menu, so extensive that it's quite a challenge to make a speedy decision, that said, it's virtually impossible to make a wrong decision. The fact that Muzza's is open all year round at a seaside resort is testimony to the quality of food, the friendliness of the staff and all round loveliness' of Muzza's. After writing this review it has suddenly dawned, that I've failed to mention something important to many people, pricing. At worst, Muzza's prices are competitive, generally the pricing is incredibly fair and of excellent value. Already looking forward to next years holiday and more visits to Muzza's!! P.S. Tried the Ice Cream Tapas. 8 scoops of Ice Cream, flavours of your choice. Apparently it's for 2 people. Excellent value!! We had a Tapas each!!"

"It can't be that complicated to serve up a decent portion of chips. They're more likely to be cooked fresh when they're busy at weekends, but it's a good sign of a chippys standards what they're happy to sell people on a Monday when its quiet. God knows how long these chios had been sitting there. As soon as I opened the paper up I could tell they were inedible. And the tasting confirmed that. Just rotten. A real shame because I like supporting cash only businesses. We need to keep cash alive. But I won't be going back in there."

"Went in to treat myself after a tough day of work. Spent over £12 just in food for myself so it’s not exactly cheap and it’s definitely not worth the money. They forgot to put half my order in the bag, they put vinegar on the chips when I specified not to (which isn’t a huge deal to me, I just find vinegar quite repulsive so it ruined the chips for me but would’ve been a different story if somebody had an allergy) and not only that but the food was disgusting. How somewhere can mess up chicken nuggets and chips I do not know."

"We visited for the Sunday carvery. It was really good, probably one of the best roasts we've had outside of the house. Food was hot, there was plenty of it and service was good even though it was extremely busy. Only thing that was a negative for us, was we were only allowed our table for an hour and a half. I think if you book a table you shouldn't be pressured to leave after an hour and a half and that wasn't explained when I phoned to book. It was a shame as we would of liked to stay for more drinks/coffee etc."

The Waterfront Bar Restaurant

"Gorgeous location but relying on it and attitude of staff particularly the chefs and food standards are poor in comparison to the view. We were told to order our food as soon as we sat down because the chefs wanted to finish early. Food wasn't great fish overcooked and had clearly been sat under the heater, pasta soggy and burger very bog standard. The food had obviously been precooked and left so the chefs could get away! Quite a feat to cook fish that is both soggy yet dry at the same time! Dessert was delicious but overall the whole meal was average and overpriced £170 for 2 adults and 2 children. New restaurant opening on the pier so the chefs will have to up their game as the current standard of food won't be enough to stand up to any competition! Waiting staff were lovely! I felt sorry for them with the arrogant poor quality chefs in the background making demands whilst producing mediocre food!"

"Highly recommended.! The service was excellent, professional, helpful and polite. The food was cooked and presented to a very high standard. Everything we ate was full flavoured, not over spicy, and very tasty. Fresh hot naans fresh poppadoms and melt in the mouth meat. Very clean and very well set out tables, staff were great.! This has to be your choice for Indian meals in Sandown, one visit will not be enough. !!!"

"We Parked up at Island Harbour and walked our dog along the river to the Folly. It's an easy walk and just long enough for Shelby our Labrador to burn off some energy so that we can sit and enjoy a coffee or as on this occasion a meal on the terrace. The meals are good and Shelby had a sausage and a few chips. I had a burger and Lee had the salmon fish cakes both excellent, served by attentive staff Food: 5"
