"We didn’t like the alternative version of the coke as it did not taste like coke."
"The side dishes could have been better, the potatoes and greens were a bit bland."
"The food here was lovely ....sadly we felt the service let the experience down."
"The mussels could have been a bit saucier, especially as they made a point of selling us more bread to dip into it."
"Slightly disappointed evening spent here with friends. Over priced for what was provided."
"Nothing special - mediocre seafood restaurant. Mediocre presentation, size, service and ambience."
"So overrated! £90 for 2 for a starter and main that was definitely not worth the price."
"Nice starters and main dishes. I had hake with shellfish sauce and tomatoes - fresh fish but I think the sauce could have been better."

"Amazingly friendly staff that are also very knowledgable about what food is on offer."

"The chef knows how to cook fish, hands down. Food was delicious, delicate, fresh, unpretentious and varied enough. Atmosphere was great and service was good."
"Really good restaurant and extremely friendly staffs."
"Staff were friendly and knowledgable."
Cons:
"Service was a bit slow as we were alone at the back and the waiters would only come to us when our food was ready."
"Service was very slow which I didn't understand as it is a small restaurant."
"The lack of communication and understanding on the part of the staff was deeply disappointing."
"Slightly disappointed evening spent here with friends."
"The food here was lovely ....sadly we felt the service let the experience down."
"We eat out once a week and are happy to pay the £115 for two for lunch that it cost here.... what will make us go back and tell our friends is the whole experience, not just the food!"
"Booked for special occasion. Arrived a little early so was asked to come back a little later did as was requested. We were meant to be seated upstairs as we were led to believe but was taken downstairs to be seated in a room that can only be described as looking like an old repurposed lavatory."
"The food is tasty, cooked well, nicely presented and of a decent portion size. However, the staff were unkind, impatient and dismissive which unfortunately detracted from the experience."
Atmosphere
Pros:
"A lovely little restaurant right in the sea front."
"Great little restaurant with fish focused menu and great wine list."
"Unpretentious, stylish, anything is just a call away and accommodating."
"Lovely, intimate little restaurant serving fresh and creative seafood dishes."
"This place never fails to wow us. Such wonderful service and such delicious, perfectly cooked food."
"Everything a restaurant should be. Food was incredible, wonderfully indulgent yet light and fresh."
"A perfect weekend getaway. Exceptional and wonderfully prepared seasonal seafood with interesting wine list... Check! Served by attentive and knowledgeable staff in a casual atmosphere... Check!"
"Beautiful cosy restaurant in the heart of Margate."
Cons:
"We were also sat at the back so the atmosphere didn’t feel good and it’s quite run down with it being a bit dingy at the back."
"We were a little bit disappointed to be in the back room alone, it meant we didnt have any vibes and we couldn't really take in Margate or see anything."
"The menu didn't entirely match what's shown online, but I guess depending on the availability of fresh fish this is a given."
"Oh yes one more thing, the toilet is outside like a sort an attached toilet shed."
"It is on the expensive side, and we definitely did not need the sides that we were upsold, but otherwise it was marvellous, high quality food and the waitress we had was amazing."
"The table next to us was so loud they overpowered my conversation. It wasn't the best dining experience but the food was nice."
"The restaurant had a very nice chilled vibe, perfect for casual lunches and cosy dinners."
"This restaurant is not a fancy place, but if you really want to have one of the best seafood meals in Kent, don't miss this opportunity."
