Booked ahead and got a table by the window. The view of the harbour was lovely, really made the evening. Service was friendly and attentive, which I always appreciate. The seat was comfortable too, no rushing you out. A very pleasant spot for a relaxed meal.

Been coming here for weekend lunches lately. The crispy squid (Ike Age) is spot on every time - super fresh, perfectly crisp. It&#39;s a nice, relaxed spot to unwind. Staff are always friendly.

Service was quick and friendly even when they were packed. The staff made us feel really welcome, like we were regulars even though it was our first time. A nice touch.

Been coming here for years, and it&#39;s the welcome that keeps me coming back. The owner always remembers my name, and the staff make you feel like you&#39;re just popping into a friend&#39;s place. It&#39;s that consistency that matters.

Decent portion sizes, and the curry sauce was spot on. I paired it with a crisp lager, which worked surprisingly well. Prices are fair. A good, no-fuss lunch.

The sushi school class was solid. Brandon knows his stuff, no doubt. We made maki and nigiri, and the fish quality was decent. Came away with a full platter to take home. The hands-on part is what you&#39;re paying for, really.

Been ordering their vegan pizza for years, always loaded with extra veggies. Still hits the spot.

The portions are massive! The food&#39;s fresh and tasty, definitely lives up to the hype.

The Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki with the extra noodle layer was spot on. Really took me back to those little street stalls. A bit pricey for what it is, but the flavour was just right.

Just a short stroll from the harbour. It was pretty quiet when we dropped by. The dirty fries are the real star here &ndash; loaded with all the good stuff, you&#39;ve gotta try them to see what the fuss is about. So good!

Great halal food with a proper spicy kick. The staff even gave us some sightseeing tips. The wine list was a pleasant surprise, had a nice glass with the lamb.

Always spotless when I visit. The tables are cleared quickly, floors look clean. It just feels comfortable to sit down for a meal here, you know? Makes a difference.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s that family-run feel that keeps me coming back. You can taste the care in every dish, like they&#39;re cooking for their own. Always fresh, always consistent.

Great space, amazing food and wonderful service. Really appreciate the birthday surprise for my daughter . Thanks for making it such a lovely night for her.

Stumbled upon this spot during a busy lunch hour. The tomato soup was incredible, really hit the spot. Lasagna was top-notch too. Perfect for a quick, satisfying bite.

This pub is a great local spot with friendly staff and a nice selection of beers. I enjoyed my meal and will definitely be returning with friends soon.

Great spot by the water, staff were lovely. The fish and chips were solid, crispy batter and fresh fish. A bit pricey, but you&#39;re paying for the location. Makes for a decent pit stop if you&#39;re catching the ferry.

The staff here are just lovely. They remembered my name after ordering, which was a really nice touch. Felt like I&#39;d been coming here for ages, not just a first visit. Made catching up with my mates feel extra relaxed.

The food here is a nice change - clean and not oily at all. Flavours are well-balanced and lovely. My grilled fish was perfectly cooked, not a hint of greasiness. Portion was decent for the price.

Came for a birthday dinner. The grilled salmon was the highlight &ndash; so fresh and flaky, with a lovely herb crust. The seasonal greens on the side were crisp and vibrant. Really appreciated the care with ingredients.

The family-run vibe here is so nice. We got the grilled sardines and the charcoal flavour really came through. It&#39;s a cosy spot, felt like a proper neighbourhood find.

Great for families after a game. The kids loved the food, and the staff were really nice. Their house red was a pleasant surprise with the pasta.

The coffee refills are free, which is nice. But honestly, the food tastes like it&#39;s cheap. It&#39;s just... fine. Not much else to say about it.

The prawn cocktail was lovely, really fresh and crisp. Generous portion too. I always look for that quality in the seafood. The full English was cooked nicely, but the eggs could have been a touch less oily for my taste. Still, a solid choice for a weekend brunch.

A proper local spot, buzzing on a Saturday night. The old-school jazz in the background was just right for our group catch-up. We ended up staying way longer than planned!
