"Finally got to experience this absolute gem of a place. We went with friends and had to book in advance and put a deposit down. This place is popular and I now understand why. The inside is basic with a few tables no frills, but the staff are lovely and there is a lovely atmosphere. I now understand why this place is so busy, people from all over flock to this place for the amazing food. We started with oysters, I wasn't keen but tried them and now a convert they were incredible. I wish I could remember the toppings but can't. The flavours exploded in your mouth and lasted for a long time after they were incredible. The starters were faultless I had the pork belly and scallops and again the flavours were incredible. For my main I had the Moroccan spiced monkfish omg wow and souffle for desert. All the dishes we had were breathtaking and we can't wait to return. If you want amazing food, coupled with excellent service then you have to come here. This food is made with passion and that shines through. You will not regret booking this excellent value for money. Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £50–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Rock Oysters, Blue Cheese Ice Cream, Pan Fried Crab Cake, Lobster Lasagna"

Delicious oystersThat's all I ate - the native oysters - so that's all I can say for sure, but they were genuinely fantastic oysters.
Ellie
Poor service having said that the starter was not to our taste, scallops overpowered by balsamic and peppery salad, following the first course.

Have both today a large tray of fish pie. Presented really nice but after taking it out of the oven felt really disappointed. Fish pie cost £11 . It was hard to find a piece of fish! Few pieces of garden peas That’s all! Would not go for it again. As I said very disappointing experience!!!

This is a winner. Fresh fish . Tasting menu of 8 courses including the bread but not the cheese so no agonising over choice. Great inventive and delicious cooking. From a spectacular start of light potato buns with crispy chicken skin butter to finishing with plums via scallops a stand out and lobster and Dover Sole this was a culinary triumph. It is BYOB so no wine list angst either. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
