We have recently returned from a short break in Cornwall and can highly recommend this wonderful restaurant. Not a place for anybody who doesn't like seafood but, if you do, then this is a must try place. Set in the beautiful harbour town of Padstow, this restaurant is the choice of many of the countries top chefs. The previous evening Gordon and Tania Ramsey dined there and Heston Bloominthingy eats there at least 4 times a year!
It isn't surrounded by the trappings of Michelin stars so don't be worried about any particular dress code. The staff are helpful, very knowledgeable and very enthusiastic with regard to the food on offer. The menu changes everyday, depending on the fresh wares available on the harbourside.
If you want to dine at a table then you have to book well in advance but you can also wander in off the street and dine at the bar. We were booked in advance and enjoyed a wonderful meal without being rushed. The waitress explained all the seafood on the menu, how it was caught, how it is cooked and how the different sauces compliment the individual fish etc.
The price isn't bad either. 2 starters, 2 mains and 1 dessert came to £98.00. So, if you ever find yourself in Cornwall, consider giving this place a try, you won't be disappointed.
