I had dinner at this restaurant 2 days in a row, and totally enjoyed both visits. The food was nicely presented and very well cooked. The service was very friendly and attentive. Out of all the dishes that I have tried there I can recommend ordering their market fish that is served whole on the bone. This was probably the only restaurant that cooked and served John Dory and Dover Sole whole on the bone, and they were unbelievably good. I highly recommend this restaurant.
I went there around 1 p.m. on a Sunday in July, I was seated on the terrace, an open terrace which gives a panoramic view of the market, the atmosphere was pleasant because it was not too warm.
I ordered "Whole Market fish on the bone, Roated fish Bone sauce, Market Vegetables, proper Chips."
The vegetables were cooked al dente zucchini, broccoli, peas...
The sole was roasted in a pan and lightly buttered, a bowl of fries accompanied the whole.
The whole dish was perfectly balanced, there was crunch, tenderness, softness... take the lemon and put a few drops on the fish, you will see this little tangy side will make everything divine.
I did not put 5 stars because even if I am very satisfied and I know how to recognize the efforts, it was too expensive I paid 35 pounds for this plate.
Reasonably 25 would have been more correct and appropriate.
Airy restaurant above the weekend market with fresh seafood.
Crubeens are excellent. The pig trots are tender and delightfully savory, wrapped in crispy shell. No need for the sauce :>
Prawn & Brown Crab Orzo tastes great. Bouncy shrimps and pasta, crunchy breadcrumbs and veggie. The crab is invisible though.
Market fish is Dover sole today. Tender and fresh. Love the grilled lemon.
Casserole comes with tender hake/cod and meaty monk fish, delicate mussels, and plump langoustines. Crab claws are missing again. Maybe the restaurant has run out of crabs today… (though we saw crabs for sale downstairs at the market earlier in the morning). The mayo is quite heavy for the sourdough. Perhaps it’s better to have it on the side.
Service is friendly and food comes fast. Glad that we made it before our Friday ferry.
Veal ravioli also sounds appetizing, and no time for desert today. Next time :)
