"This restaurant is an expensive hobby, the best part of £300 for two with wine and service. I do sometimes wonder if we are paying to be there to please the chef or the chef is there to please us judging from the rules we should observe on the website. Luckily gone are the days of only taking cash, which sometimes necessitated a visit to the cash point at the end of the evening. However I digress, cards are obviously accepted now. The room is stark and soulless, more canteen than high end restaurant. On leaving, the feeling is more endurance rather than warmth, joy and money well spent. There is one menu, no choice, start time 7.00 p.m., arrive 6.45 p.m. be there or be square! Every one served the same course at the same time. To be honest I am not a massive fan of just warm food, which happens if your table is not first out of the kitchen. For me the big sin, no bread …….. Surely a restaurant like this should be able to present some sort of warm interesting bread. To be honest even just normal French bread would have been nice. Two amuse bouche were good and nicely presented as were the hake, and gilt edged bream dishes. The monkfish, a meaty fish, was rather tough with a green ravioli and green sauce which wasn’t for me. Perhaps a cerviche or grilled langustine as one of the courses would be a suggestion and also a change of texture. There were three puddings all very nice but perhaps a cheese course and two puddings may be preferable. To b honest, not a very relaxing experience!"

Absolutely stunning menu paired with complimentary wines. Each course was delivered by knowledgeable staff and was divine. The breadth of flavours, textures and presentation was inspired.

Actually the individual courses were lovely, but there is absolutely zero ambiance, in fact someone thought it was a coffee shop just before we went in. Came away feeling quite underwhelmed.

This chef owned, family operated restaurant provides a warm and friendly dinner experience. It is a set tasting menu and you should taker note of the name and you must really like fish. Duncan Ray, chef/owner, serves the first course personally and happily engages in conversation after the meal. A thoroughly enjoyable experience. View menu

We have wanted to go to this restaurant for years and finally made it there this weekend. We were not disappointed! It's a small place (20 covers I believe) and the owner/chef is the only one cooking. This does mean the evening is drawn out a little but who wants to be rushed through such a tasty experience? If you love fish then you will love TLFM. The whole team were fantastic, as was the food and ambience. Can't wait for the next visit! Thank you.

On arrival we felt the restaurant was cold so a few of us had to keep our coats on until it warmed up! The lighting was also very bright with bare wood tables, no candles so our initial feeling was that it was more of a cafe feel than a restaurant. Service was very friendly but we didn't feel it matched the £95/head price tag (asking for water, passing plates/cutlery around the table and having to ask for water). We had a wine flight which we would expect the bottle to be brought to the table and corked, introducing the wine rather than a tray of ready-made glasses. Most food dishes were good (one very good). Nice canapés but no bread which I feel should be served with every meal. Nice food...
