The Fish House - Fistral

Peter Crosbie

We visited The Fish House this past week for my partner's birthday. We really enjoyed ourselves and the food was absolutely delicious. Fish restaurants are never usually our 'go-to' eatery of choice but given the already impressive reviews of this establishment, I thought they would suit the occasion and boy did they live up to expectation. Our waitress was very attentive and having emailed in ahead of time, they gave my partner a welcoming birthday greet as though they already knew which was a nice surprise and a little dessert board with candles on at the end. We took our 5 yr old girls and even their pasta dish was lovely and we were welcomed with children. The restaurant is relaxed with a nice atmosphere, you'll find a mixed bag of people (and pooches), although there aren't many tables here. If I had one criticism, I'd say the service was a little too prompt. We basically did a three course meal in an hour and 15, that said, the restaurant wasn't full at the time we ate (5pm table), but a little extra time between courses would have been nice. I'd definitely visit again, without a question.

After reading the good reviews, I decided to book a table while visiting from London. We had the seafood sharing platter for starters and the crab & prawn linguine and Hake for the main. All the dishes were nice, but found there were too much herbs in the linguine. The service could have been better. We had to wave down the staff quite a few times, as they were busy chatting away by the bar. Overall, it was a nice experience but thought it quite expensive for that we got.

Mind blowing deliciousness. We ordered the lobster which comes with chips & salad and that was the best £50 we have spent. Lobster is so succulent and sweet, it was packed with flavours … I was holding back on drinking liquid as I wanted the taste to stay in my mouth for longer! We also ordered monk fish in Korean style which is spicy and sweet, that was also superb with the right balance. These are the only 2 dishes we ordered and that was plenty to fill us up. Dessert was strawberry sundae and it was creamy but light and refreshing. 10 out of 10 and think I found my favorite restaurant in the uk.
