Hall's Kitchen in Weymouth and Portland

fantastic food great service great location near Weymouth Harbour great selection lovely food definitely will return again bernie paddy Bayview Hotel weymouth

Sadly very disappointing. The starters were ok, I had steak as my main and the potatoes were burnt. The steak was very mediocre and it came with basically no real veg except a massive shallot. The potatoes were also covered in fried onions. It was an onion overload. Partner had a seafood dish and the salmon was full of bones. He had potatoes with it and they were also burnt. Pudding was creme brulee that was cold, it was nice but should be served warm. Partner had a cheese board with dry cheese, crackers and we had to ask for cutlery and chutney which didn't come as they had none. Our bill wasn't reduced. He waited then just started to eat it as it wasn't coming anytime soon. They ran out of the drink I was having. It's extremely expensive for what you get. We are happy to pay good money for nice food but this was £140 and it wasn't a good experience. We wouldn't return.

This is a small friendy restaurant with amazing food. Few covers so booking is essential. Small menu which is perfect as every dish is carefully thought through with wonderful textures and flavours. We have been before and will go certainly go again.

One of the best restaurants in weymouth. It never disappoints

The Halls Kitchen is a real Gem to be found in Weymouth. Excellent choice of main courses, lovely food efficiently served by the very attentive and helpful waiting staff. Good choice of wines. We just wished we could have stayed longer and would make a point of returning soon just so we can sample the sweets! Well worth a visit

Food was really good but they had no beer only Carling which was not a good start. It was a birthday celebration for 10 people so pretty poor and when asked if we could bring our own beer from the shop they reluctantly popped out to get us some perroni 🙄 serving staff were not interested and actually quite rude & very unprofessional. At the end of the meal they told us they shut at 10 and to basically hurry up, when asked them for coffee the reply was sorry we have cleaned the coffee machine now 🙄 £500 bill and awful staff who did nothing but be negative about the kitchen and the business. Have eaten here before & always recommended but unfortunately we will never eat here again 😕 seems like the owner has lost interest in his customers.

Best restaurant in Weymouth by far. The food and service are unbeatable.

Had a meal here with friends. As I'm vegetarian there was very little choice for me but both the starter and main were absolutely amazing. I definitely will be going back, by far the best local restaurant. Everyone else loved their meals too, great atmosphere and good service. Highly recommend.

Just fabulous. Delicious food, lovely staff. A gem for sure!!! We’ll be back!!! 🥰

We had a wonderful meal at Hall’s Kitchen over the weekend. The team could not have been more warm & welcoming from the second we stepped through the door. Lovely atmosphere. Food was superb! We had a mixture of seafood/meat dishes and it was all delicious and perfectly cooked. Tasted amazing 👌 Would 100% recommend visiting!

We had such a lovely meal last night! It was faultless.

Very nice, friendly restaurant in Weymouth town centre. Warm welcome and fast, efficient service. Attention to detail with the food. Pretty presentation. We dined as a family but our kids are quite used to dining out (it’s not really a kids place). Would have given 5 stars if they had some AF options such as wine or sparkling wine. I was only offered soft drinks such a juice or coke, which was not what I wanted with my meal. Very busy so would suggest booking. A good find.

Excellent food and service at very reasonable prices. Fish was very fresh and not over cooked, with great detail for presentation.

Lovely evening spent at Hall's Kitchen. Food excellent. Staff friendly.

Excellent friendly restaurant and lovely staff. Excellent food! Staff were incredibly friendly and more than happy to help.

Lovely food, service was good and we will return because the wife liked it alot! I felt a bit rushed but would still return

Great Atmosphere. Food was great lots of choice. Staff were very friendly . We would thoroughly recommend this restaurant.

The first time visiting, catch up with the girls!! well impressed with the food so fresh, tasty, well presented, so I have the crab soup so tasty and creamy so much crab in the soup, we all have three different fish for our main course so tasty, well presented and said it’s just what we need finishing up the evening so nice. lovely experience definitely be back again

The young waitress was very charming and helpful

very nice! good atmosphere, good sized starters and sides, and very nice selection of seasonal cocktails!

Absyfsbulous , I had the sea bass with truffle mash and seasonal vegetables, it was delicious and the service was amazing x

Outstanding service , excellent food every time 😃 we had the Christmas menu , the Brie starter was amazing, followed by a turkey dinner with all the trimmings and a delicious brownie to finish ,

Fantastic service- such friendly waitresses and I could see how hard the kitchen staff worked all evening also. Christmas dinner menu was lovely, favourite was the battered Brie! Thank you for making my husband feel looked after with his coeliac needs, nice for him to eat out and feel relaxed. Atmosphere also very intimate, cosy and festive. Really recommend and hope to return, next time with our children!

Wonderful cosy restaurant. The starters of prawns and mussels were outstanding, followed by a superb steak, great rack of lamb and delicious duck. The young lady, Tara, who served us was terrific, very professional with a wicked sense of humour. Best meal in the last three years we’ve been lucky enough to live in this area. We will be back soon hopefully.

Booked for my husband’s birthday. The food was fantastic, lovely staff and a great atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely fantastic meal. The service was brilliant. Highly recommend this restaurant. Has to be the best restaurant in Weymouth. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Amazing food & service again, we came 18 months ago whilst on holiday & as soon as we knew we were coming to Weymouth again we booked to come back straight away and were not disappointed, thank you guys. 😊

The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, the staff are attentive and pay close attention to detail. We had a short time scale, one hour to be exact to eat our starter and main as we were watching a show at the Pavillion. The starter was...

Delicious food and fun, quirky service from Tara who helped us with the menu and was exemplary in her help for two old geezers - one deaf and one halt. We will be back when the wind blows us here from our home port Christchurch.

For years walked past the door, and will never walk past again, what a fantastic experience! Took my parents for their anniversary, and so glad I did. The food and customer service was the best.

We wanted an early evening meal and were fortunate to book a table in this lovely restaurant. The service was friendly, and the food was divine. Each dish (we had 3 courses) was beautifully presented and very yummy! If you are in Weymouth, we highly...

Lovely dinner at this little gem of a restaurant. Very friendly and helpful service, excellent seafood skilfully cooked, sensibly priced wine list. The crab bisque was delicious. If you’re ordering the panache of seafood make sure you bring your appetite - it could easily feed two. Very highly recommended.

Compact venue, the menu is very good, and the food looks beautiful, but unfortunately, the flavours aren't always quite as great as they could be for the price. We've only been a couple of times though and would definitely try it again.

Last minute booking but so glad they were able to fit us in. The food was some of the best we have eaten in a while. We both had a starter and a main and everything was cooked to perfection. The service was brilliant as...

Excellent food, very high quality meat and vegetables, all cooked to perfection. Fantastic staff, very friendly and helpful. Lovely intimate atmosphere. Bistro type restaurant, not over pretentious. Vey nice food and atmosphere, what more do you need!

This was the best meal in a restaurant we have had in Weymouth for a long time the food was brilliant and the service was excellent highly recommended

The food is simply amazing. We only had fish dishes, 3 starters and shared a main with vegetables. All were absolutely brilliant as was the service. Certainly not to be missed if you are in Weymouth

This place is a hidden gem ! The chef is a genius the staff are great and the food is fresh and amazing. We will still be telling people about this for years to come . Trust me people if you like fresh seafood you...

Beautiful food well presented with spot on service

Visited for a wedding anniversary meal. It was very much enjoyed by both of us! The duck in particular was absolutely delicious! It's a small restaurant with an intimate feel. Would definitely recommend for couples.

Great food & service Will definitely visit again soon…. Scallops are amazing ….everything was lovely

A lovely small restaurant serving excellent well presented starter, mains and desserts by friendly staff in a nice atmosphere. It's amazing when you see the size of the kitchen. On this occasion we had fish dishes, but look forward to going back to trying the...

I’ve visited Halls on 2 occasions with the current menu. As a vegetarian I expect to have a limited menu but I am a lover of artichokes so should be good - olives and artichoke available as a starter, buffalo cauliflower with artichoke tzatziki as...

Our second ( and last ever ) visit to this restaurant. Just like the first visit, things were pretty dire from the beginning. We ordered two Negroni cocktails, the waitress, who was very willing and friendly, came back to the table to say we couldn’t...

The restaurant has a small capacity (24 covers) so book in advance as it is an absolute treat. We were a family group of 4; mother (89), two adult children and a wife. The food was superb, the service was prompt and SO friendly, our...

We had a wonderful meal at Halls Kitchen. I had booked a table, however we turned up a day early (sorry!) They were so accommodating and got us a table. The food and service was spot on. Would definitely recommend the Panache of fish…very tasty....

This is a lovely place for a family of 4, and I would definitely recommend👌

Superb food. The sea bass was exquisite and my partners steak was delicious. The service was prompt and the setting was fantastic

Was a totally unexpected treat last week to discover Hall's. The food was excellent, and the wait staff attentive and engaging. The place itself is cute and feels intimate. Overall, just a lovely evening. Total gem.

Still the best restaurant in Weymouth. Fantastic good. Never fails to impress. Not a single person had a single issue with a single dish!

We visited after reading the reviews and were not disappointed. Crab soup and scallop lollipops for starters, both delicious. Mains were hake and veggie cauliflower dish which were both great. Nicely presented and generous portions. Drinks are very reasonably priced. Very sweet waitress and Maitre...

A lovely family run restaurant which has a relaxed atmosphere and serves great food. The scallop lollipop starter featured three large scallops that were cooked to perfection with a pancetta wrapper. The crab soup was very tasty and a generous portion served with a cheese...

What an amazing little restaraunt. The food was so good; presentation and taste. Best meal I have had in a very long time. The service was great and atmosphere really lovely. Definetly a must if you are in Weymouth.

It was a really delicious meal- best crab soup I’ve ever eaten. Although clearly busy we were fitted in as a walk in. Food was super fresh and reasonably priced. Out fellow diners provided amusement as it was hard not to earwig…. that’s you Steve...

We went to halls kitchen last night, it took us a couple of weeks to get in , I can understand why. The meal was outstanding, as was the staff , service & atmosphere. The food was beautifully cooked & tasted amazing. Definitely the best...

Great seafood selection on the menu which was cooked and presented very well. One little frustration is with booking - the phone didn't seem to have an answer phone facility and when you go online the opening times don't seem to be in sync with...

Excellent service and food. Could not fault anything. Highly recommended.

Amazing food and service! Thank you so much

This is a hidden gem, we had a fabulous meal in a very nice restaurant. The food was delicious ( scallops, Hake and crème brûlée) we would recommend all of them. Plus a decent choice of wines. The waiter was really helpful and answered all...

The best meal ever in Weymouth. The only thing I would do to in prove it would be to have a little side order of veg. Would 100%recomend, and will be back when in Weymouth in September.

Great food , friendly service and ambience chicken and fish dishes cooked to highest standards , the sweet French bread and butter pudding best thing I ever tasted . Was here 2019 was great then also!

We came to Halls Kitchen for my birthday which was whilst we was on holiday. The food was excellent as always, and as it happened the night we went there was two other people celebrating there birthdays too so we was all made to feel...

The best food in town : nothing compares to this beautiful little restaurant 😋 just such amazing food great vibes waiting staff fabulous : thanks Jason xxx

Good menu, well cooked and presented food. Server a bit rushed off his feet but coped well. Small place but well fitted out and comfortable.

Little gem in Weymouth. Booked beforehand so we’d definitely have a table as it’s only a small place. Well decorated, and intimate seating. Staff are kind and knowledgeable about the food. Had fish for main and bread and butter pudding. We were absolutely stuffed; good portion sizes and flavours, and reasonably priced

A friendly and efficiently run restaurant with a cosy atmosphere. There is an emphasis on sea food and the locally sourced fine ingredients were cooked to perfection. Booking in advance is strongly recommended

Enjoyed a wonderful evening with delicious food and drink. Had the scallops and crab soup for starters, seabass and duck mains, bread and butter pudding and creme brulee for dessert. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant is small and intimate, family owned. Was...

Small, personal restaurant. Excellent friendly service. Visited with my husband and two friends. We all had fish starters and main courses. Fish was very fresh and perfectly cooked.

Great food. Excellent service. The establishment is of a perfect size so everyone is well looked after. A great evening.

Superb food .....ambiance the same...only around 20 covers. Staff very amenable to my attempt at comedy... whole experience well worth the cost at around £40 per head for plus a bottle of wine. If I sail that way again my wife and I will go...

Good food but nothing memorable, everything was pretty much bang average, so nothing to complian or praise about.

A lovely intimate atmosphere at this great restaurant. We were well looked after by William and the rest of the staff, who were great. We started with scallops on sticks and very large pan-fried prawns, with aniseed and chilli velouté (complements to the chef!) both...

Wonderful experience, far better than expected. Loved the soup and good value. Well done.

Very friendly staff and the food was excellent. I came here as a customer as part of Dorset abilities members working in catering industry.

Another great visit to Halls for my husbands birthday. He’s a big seafood fan so it’s an ideal choice as it also provides great options for meat lovers and vegetarians. Husband thoroughly enjoyed the scallop lollipop starter followed by the panache of fish - all...

The restaurant is fairly small and intimate but not dark or dingy. Staff are friendly and helpful. The menu is short but has plenty of variety, which is good. We had two crab soups to start, then four main courses - chicken, lamb, duck and...

The food was exceptional and all freshly prepared. The wine list is extensive but not over priced. A friendly family run business with an eye for quality and service. Not cheap but not expensive either. We felt it was good value for the quality of...

Fabulous, cosy restaurant serving excellent standard of food. Staff were very friendly and professional. This was perfect for my birthday celebration with family and friends.

We booked a Birthday meal at this restaurant to celebrate a friends birthday along with 10 others. Lovely ambience - lovely staff - Fabulous food. Lollipop Scallops an absolute must 10/10 Most of us had rack of lamb - all commented how tasty. Pan seared...

Arriving without a booking, we were welcomed in. The Crab soup was amazing, we also had mussels, hake and rack of lamb. All were outstanding and served in a pleasant friendly environment. They kept apologising for the wait, but the pace was perfect for us....

What a fantastic place All round everything was Great Delicious food all well presented A Lovely atmosphere. Service was very friendly and helpful Would definitely recommend.

I am allergic to dairy and didn’t know if the menu would be ok for me as most of the dishes have cream or milk in the potatoes. However, everything is so freshly cooked that the chef made exactly what I wanted but dairy free....

This was our first visit, the restaurant having been recommended to us. On a horrible rainy night in Weymouth it was full which was a good sign. We had scallops, crab soup and mushroom rarebit to start which were extremely good, followed by duck, cod...

Superb meal. Staff were excellent..would definitely go again.

Fantastic restaurant. Can not fault the place whatsoever. Food is AMAZING. Wish I could visit again but I live in Scotland. Best food we tried in Weymouth.

Absolutely fantastic food with great service best restaurant we went to in Weymouth easily !! The prawn starter was the best I have ever tasted , rack of lamb had great flavour and the bead and butter pudding was awesome !!

Delicious food and great atmosphere in small cosy place. Fantastic customer service. Highly recommended.

Excellent food which was of a high quality. My partner had the fillet steak which was cooked to perfection. The chocolate brownie was lovely. The staff were friendly and polite . Could not fault anything.

Fabulous food in a fantastic family run restaurant. Great friendly staff, service with a smile. Amazing creations of the tastiest food around. Always good portions, never go home hungry!!

Service was a little disjointed by the time it came to dessert but the food was fantastic.

Walk through the fairly anonymous entrance and you’ll enter a land of culinary delight! We had a great evening, experiencing exceptional cooking and excellent service in a relaxed atmosphere. The menu isn’t the largest but it’s all the better for that, with good choices available...

The food was amazing. Highly recommended.

I've noticed others mention the booking system. I'd like to say that I had no problems whatsoever and was impressed. It was easy to use and I immediately received a text and email confirmation. We arrived and were greeted by lovely, friendly and efficient staff....

Long story short, spectacular food and the staff are great. We didn’t make a booking but we just happened to be passing by and were desperate for some decent seafood dinner. And we were NOT disappointed!
