Mourne Seafood in Down

Food was amazing. Had the monk fish Thai curry, rice, truffle and parmesan fries. The fish tasted fresh and the curry was full of flavour. Would recommend.

Definitely the place to go for seafood, The Oysters were great as was the fish of the day, the mussels were a little disappointing, good sauce but a little overcooked. As with many restaurants in Northern Ireland rathee intrusive and inappropriate muzak

Had lunch in the Mourne Seafood today, meal was delicious and also the kids are everything on theirs plates! Would highly recommend eating out here!!

Food is sublime. Service is friendly and efficient. Price for the quality of food and service is great. My favourite restaurant by a country mile. Oh and not a bad pint of Guinness either.

Lovely restaurant with a good vibe, all ages welcome. Food was fabulous. Really did have the best fish risotto I’ve ever tasted, so good! Service was good too. Would definitely want to return here when visiting NI.

Great selection of food, staff were attentive and pleasant. One of best meals we’ve ever had we will definitely be back

I travel over to Northern Ireland once or twice a year, and always make a point of dining here. Most wonderful food , service and ambience. This last visit, I travelled 50 miles out of my way,to dine there, and as ever, I was not disappointed.

We had an early midweek booking and were excited to get some oysters, which they had thankfully. My husband and i shared 6 natural and 6 baked - there were fantastic, the freshness of the naturals was evident. For main my husband had the haddock and i had the curried monkfish, neither disappointed.the only minor comment was that they didnt have the wine i had wanted, but the staff were quick to make alternative recommendations and we were happy with what we got in the end. They also make an excellent espresso martini.Service was efficient and friendly and we cannot wait to go back.

The restaurant itself is not pretentious so as a family we felt very comfortable, especially given that we had a two year old with us, we were seated beside the fish tank, which for some may have turned them vegetarian but the two year old was kept amused by the fish. The food was delicious from start to finish. The langoustines were beautifully cooked, the squid was tender and the haddock was flaky yet moist. The scampi was perfect and came with the most intense tartar sauce. The trimmings of fries and salad were fresh and dressed with a delicate oil and vinegar dressing. One of our party had steak, it was declared as the best he had ever eaten. We definitely prefer this restaurant to its sister in Bank Street.

On arrival for our Sunday lunch (which we had struggled m get through in t he phone to boo and had no replies to emails) we were told there were no oysters or mussels. Luckily we weren’t after either bum feel this immediately would be disappointing for many customers coming to a seafood restaurant and this was proved when a later table left as soon as they heard this. We expected a full range of seafood options yet the menu was rather limited I.e scampi and chips, fish and chips though there were extra specials on thankfully which we ordered from. Thankfully we also ordered bread to start which took half an hour to come (bearing in mind we appeared to be the first table of the day) and had to wait a full hour from arrival at least for our mains. The food was tasty enough but not of the calibre the mourne seafood name should be living up to. Worst of all, my partner found a hair in his dish whilst halfway through. Service was poor to begin with, servers lacked friendliness or attention to detail. They also were drinking coffee at the bar every chance they got in sight of patrons which I felt was unprofessional. We ran out of drinks and struggled to catch anyone’s attention to reorder. Only when one server saw my partner checking his watch as we were waiting on the mains were we told our food was coming now. Thankfully the manager mdiscounted drinks and starter to make up for the hair but to be honest I wasn’t that happy to pay for the dish at all. We have never been to the Belfast restaurant so I’m unsure if any better. Won’t be returning. Very glad we didn’t make the trip on one ends earn.

Beautiful seafood food from a great menu served by friendly staff. Reassuring COVID precautions, very enjoyable evening!

the best food i have ever eatten i would tell others to try here again best fresh fish and chips i would come again

people's reading this review I'd rather eat in this place than that Bayside catch across the road that the staff for that rude nasty and food is disgusting this is the best food all my god the best fish and chips you'll get in the world

I took the family to Mourne Sea Food Dundrum as a treat to beat the COVID Blues. We felt comfortable with their spaced tables and Covid safety arrangements. Yet again the food was spectacular. The pot of mussels starter was a hit but beaten by the coconut prawns. The mains were as ever magnificent, the calamari was tender and tasty. Cod with the lightest batter, a range of veggie options but the chilli and garlic infused linguine was awesome My personal favourite was the yellow fin tuna, a really healthy main course. The lemon posset was special, light and citrus, dressed with fresh raspberry. To finish a cheeky expresso martini finished the night. Don’t take my word for it try it your self! The guys here have struggled like the rest of us over the last few months and need some winter trade but boy do they deserve it. Compliments to the waiting staff who were brilliant as ever. See you again soon.

My husband and I are just back from the mourne food was fantastic service was brilliant. We had squid to start with my had the cod my husband had the hake both were fab best meal I’ve had and n a while. Definitely worth a visit

We stopped in for a late lunch on a miserably wet day. The ambience as we walked in was welcoming and almost rustic.The food served was extremely good; beautifully prepared and presented and tasty. Portion sizes were good.The wine list wasn't extensive but reasonable.Well worth stopping in if you're in the area.

We ate here with friends, and had delicious food. Our party had the mussels, cod, scampi, squid, langoustines and hake - the fish was perfectly cooked and the mussels were really tasty! We all got stuck in to the langoustines. It was a lovely meal, but no lobster as were just out of season, this means we will need to go back soon - shame, I’m very disappointed lol

I love coming to Mournes. Such good, fresh dishes and in a lovely setting. It has that beach, marina, seaside vibe.Enjoy coming here as they always have a good range of specials on it - recently had Cod with mash in a creamy leek sauce. Excellent. Great way to finish a hard day climbing the nearby Mourne Mountains.

Top quality food here. Rolled up here on a Friday night without any booking, and they happily gave us a table for 30 minutes later. Warm enough to have some pleasant craft beers and wine outside. Wonderful calamari starters. My wife had beautiful langoustine scampi, and I had fresh tasty battered haddock. Paid the bill and going out the door realised they never charged the drinks, so I went back to pay for same and was told my honesty was so appreciated, they were on the house! A great start to a wonderful week in east Ulster.

Our first meal out as a family since lockdown was to this relaxed restaurant while holidaying nearby. Members of the party were talking about what they wanted to eat before we went and were delighted to find almost everything on the menu when we got there.A flexible menu which allowed some to have 2-3 starters instead of a main. The batter they make is delicious and almost tempura style. All seafood and fish was delicious, with great tasty chips. Nice wine at reasonable prices.Although busy, tables were well spaced. Staff were efficient and attentive but not intrusive. If we’d had time we would have tried to go back, but getting booked again was likely to have been a challenge.Highly recommended for lovers of fish and seafood in an unfussy environment. Great ( expensive) art work on the walls.

lovely meal. pleasant staff even though they were very busy. we had a kilo of mussels, salt and chilli squid and battered oysters which were all phenomenal. the coconut prawns were just ok though the sauce was delicious.

Coconut prawns - Nice enough but sauce was a little bland, needed some spice. Smoked haddock risotto - Very good Monkfish with green curry sauce - Excellent. Very enjoyable meal.

Went here for a wee family get together meal. Our waitress(Cliona)was friendly,pleasant and helpful, and the venue itself is lovely... According to my 10yr old "Best chicken nuggets everrrr" (wannabe food critic!)But unfortunately SOME of the other food was sadly disappointing. We had the seafood Chowder which was bland and tasteless my daughter-in-law had to add copious amounts of salt and pepper to make it palatable. In their defence at least they put their hands up and said sorry. .. The kitchen let's this place down today. Mourne seafood - you need to do better!

Food was good though I thought the prawn starter was very expensive for what it was. Prices were higher than shown online. Service slow and non attentive though pleasant enough.

The food was absolutely delicious. We had the chowder and prawns as starters. Both were cooked beautifully. We followed this with the mussels and monkfish. Both were fantastic. Well worth visiting for an evening out!

Very Disappointed.We visited here just after Covid 19 Lockdown restrictions had been eased.There was a bottle of hand-sanitizer at the door on way in, otherwise there were no safety precautions taken by the waiting staff, which made me feel very uncomfortable. The room was bright and airy but somehow lacking in atmosphere, after all it is a Fish Restaurant, it needed some nets, buoys or some fishing gear draped on walls. My husband and I had whitebait which was certainly fresh but cold. There was a Chowder Soup which was excellent and the Crab Cakes were “finished” at 1.30pm!! 2 half portions of mussels in a creamy sauce which was delicious but the mussels were tiny and again cold. 1 Risotto which was very spicy and cool in temperature, 1 Sea Bass which looked and was lovely. 1 out of a party of four was satisfied. I was so disappointed as I have wanted to visit this restaurant for a very long time….well that box has been ticked and not to be repeated.

Called for lunch after lockdown and enjoyed a really excellent meal Good processes in place with staff friendly and well briefed. We both had fish dishes, fresh, good quality and well presented. Nice location in village at foot of the Mournes. Glad you are back!

This is always a port of call when visiting this direction!Excellent seafood. Super friendly staff. Really good service. Popped in for lunch. Had delicious chowder, really generous portions, great drinks menu, lots of local beers, ciders etc. Nice wood burning stove.Relaxed, casual atmosphere.Look forward to next visit.

Nice and warm on arrival with the fire going. Good selection of seafood and wines. Staff pleasant and attentive. Thank you, we will be back

Poor service on the night we visited. A promised voucher after a private feedback never arrived or a response to second feedback message. I used to travel approximately 1 hr to eat here a couple of times a year. Doubtful I will ever return and wouldn’t recommend due to poor customer service. A hit and miss eatery needs to change attitude as personally I’ve found equivalent quality food at lower prices in Belfast. I’ve previously recommended this place several times.

Dined with my wife on a Friday evening, it was busy but not packed. Starters were excellent (chowder and cod bites), with good portion size, but most importantly quality ingredients prepared well. Main course was fresh sea bream and scampi, again both were excellent. Service was reasonably quick and pleasant throughout. We skipped dessert, as our meals were very filling.

I've been eating fish and chips from the bayside catch across the road for years, but thought we'd try the mourn sea food restaurant across the street as they'd advertised that they do take away and have such a good reputation. Never again! Honestly, all 4 fish were less than a centimetre thick. Chips were nice though.

This was the second time in for food with family It was busy today a small wait put food was 100% Will be back soon

my husband our friend and myself went to mourne seafood dundrum last night for dinnerwonderful welcome fab cocktails and an amazing menudifficult to decide what to choose but hubby went for his favourites seafood chowder to start followed by fish and chips........THE BIGGEST BATTERED FISH EVER !!!!!!!!!he just loved itmy friend had flat breads with hummus and seeds definetly worth having it was scrummy she followed this with salmon fillet on a bed of mixed mushrooms she said it was excellenti was very undecided but finally settled on whitebait yummy yummy and for main i had mussels with sour dough breadmussels were delicious good wine list we chose Italian Pinot Grigio very very goodcouple of cocktails each finished of a wondeful nightgreat food service second to noneDefinitelya place to rave about and we will return many many timeswell done guys you are BRILLIANT xxx

Have been here many times and had fabulous family evenings - sadly our visit on Friday was not one of them! Have given 3 stars due to previous good experiences, but would have rated this visit 1. This used to be a friendly, relaxed place to go for amazing seafood, it now seems like the owners’ focus is on the Belfast restaurant - which is still excellent - as the service has become stilted, slow and inattentive: indifferent acknowledgement on arrival; despite only being half full and waiter walking past table several times, we had to ask for drink orders to be taken after 10 mins; wine took another 10mins arrive; 30min+ wait between starters and mains; no check to ask if more drinks were required. Starters were excellent, particularly the langoustines and squid, but only 1 of 4 mains lived up to expectations - both cabbage/hake meals had a pool of water in the bottom of the bowls, and salmon/potato dish was so overloaded with butter it was almost inedible. Our views were politely expressed when asked by the waiter how we’d enjoyed our meals however his indifferent attitude led us to decide not to stay for dessert and another drink. All in all a very disappointing night. I hope things improve as this is a favourite haunt for our family.

This restaurant came highly recommended by the locals and did not disappoint. The squid starter was fabulous, the best squid we have ever had outside of Australia. Excellent wine and mains made this a very special supper.

Four of us had dinner, two had hake, one had sea bream and one had salmon - all beautifully cooked, with terrific accompaniments. The wine too was excellent and the bill was very reasonable. Staff terrific too, very attentive.

So often the description of the fish and chips exceeds the actuality of what is delivered but not here. FISH FRESH -YES ,CHIPS ON THE BUTTON YES ,you can toy with salads and ice creams but concentrate on the real reason to visit ;excellent fish and chips delivered in generous portions!

Went here for lunch the other week with my mother in law after the traditional walk down Murlough. I was so early I had to wait for it to open but dammit it was worth it. The place looks as it should, classy and with a sea theme cos it's near the sea see. The staff were great, attentive and helpful. But the food was extraordinary, I had a whole sole in lemon and butter and it was sensational. I also had a surprisingly great sticky toffee pudding, so I left extraordinarily happy. I always try and go when I'm in the area and will definitely be back.

Meal was great and service was very good. Excelent bread and variety of dishes. Great place to eat and relax.

Excellent and speedy service. The staff were fantastic. Great alcohol selection. The fish and chips were excellent! Very tasty! The chips and mushy peas were great! Lovely presentation. The sticky toffee pudding however did contain cinnamon which we did not like. Will return and recommend to everyone.

Paramos cuando íbamos de ruta y al pasar decidimos ver que tal se comía aquí, el local esta bien situado en la carretera y nos resulto muy bueno todo, el trato la comida la relación calidad precio y el servicio.

This used to be a lovely place to go for some tasty food but unfortunately has went downhill over the years, unlike the Belfast branch which has still kept the quality.

Was here on a Thursday night, lovely atmosphere. Good selection on the menu (mostly fish obviously) our starters and mains were all great, one of party had a steak and said it was the best he ever had. Very surprising for a fish restaurant.

Visited the MSB tonight as a party of four and all of us loved our food. I had the lobster thermidor with chips and every bite was delicious. Good, generous portions too. Friendly and attentive service. Highly recommended.

Had been invited by friends to join them for dinner, what a delightful restaurant. It was a Wednesday evening which is Lobster night. If you like lobster this is definitely not to be missed. Scores highly on everything , food excellent,service excellent, atmosphere excellent. Of course I had to have the lobster which was so good followed by the most delicious panna cotta I think I’ve ever had.

Mourne seafood what can i say great decor great staff great ambience wine cocktails yes great menu amazing lobster special on wednesday is GREAT sorry to repeat myself but everything was just GREAT loved it so much we are going again tomorrow

Visited with friends on recommendation. Had not been there for several years as the restaurant had declined somewhat. However last week was a wnderful surprise. The restaurant was full with a wonderful atmosphere. Staff were excellent and the food was amazing. I had the sea bass which was outstanding. The smoked haddock fish ales would also be recommended. It is now back to beyond its previous best. Highly recommended.

Service slow, hour wait and still no main . Fishcakes had no fish🤔not a patch on the Belfast restaurant which is outstanding.

We booked a early slot of 5.30 on Friday which was great. We had mussels to start fabulous then monkfish chickpea curry which was great only had a mild kick to it.

Booked table for ,6:30 pm. Was not impressed as on walking in was ignored by 2 members of staff for 3 to 4 minutes. Eventually shown to table for 2. May as well been table for 4. Not asked if would like to order drink. Another couple were set beside us , drinks order and food taken. 45 mins for starter to arrive. Other couple already had starter and main arrived same time as our starter. Said I was not impressed by service on way out, only to be told were short staffed. Another table nearby had 2 different couples served mains!!

It’s all about location and accessibility. We are so lucky to live in Dundrum and only have a few minutes walk to Murlough Bay and the best seafood restaurant right on our doorstep. We have been frequent eaters at this place for the last couple of years and it really deserves its reputation. Great quality fresh produce locally sourced. Chris,Aidan and their team provide a service with a smile, imparting their knowledge on the ever changing seasonal menu and choice of yummy wines. The boys know our favourite! We love mixing up the menus and creating small plates to share like tapas. No request, however bizarre is ever refused. No snobbery whatsoever, anything goes! We have seen how successful and popular Mourne Seafood has become and the boys thoroughly deserve it. Despite often being fully booked, the team always fit us. So thank you Chris and Aidan, you run a super place!

The fish was delicious, as we have come to expect, but a lovely vegetarian meal was also cooked to order, from a good selection of options - not all appear on the menu, but it's worth ringing ahead to see what they can do.

A family birthday with such a variety of starters from fish cakes, whitebait and mussels in a beautiful sauce. Had haddock and chips. So good and big. Risotto was tasty

I have awkward known of Mourne Seafood and it has taken some time to make my way from Limerick

1st visit & cant wait to go back! Food was excellent quality highly recommend the fish cakes for starter & the scampi as well as the steaks which for a fish restaurant were also super. Staff throughout were very helpful & there’s just a lovely atmosphere in the place. Definitely a place to visit & the best in the Newcastle area. Great selection of wines too.

on our second night with friends we decided to eat at Mourns seafood bar in dundrum

Had lunch there today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Gorgeous seafood beautifully cooked and presented with amazing flavours. Friendly helpful staff and relaxed atmosphere. A real find and can’t wait to visit again.

Just visited Mourne Seafood Bar in Dundrum on their lobster night, had the best fish meal ever, langoustines with samphire, whole lobster, chips with salad....don’t go for the half lobster you’ll regret it, it’s too good to only have a half. Cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough, service is brilliant, friendly atmosphere and the food is totally amazing. Will be back for sure.

Our past experiences have been grand here but on Sunday night the staff was so rude and everyone could here the chefs in the kitchen shouting and mucking around like children. The staff are usually so professional and friendly. The guy at the till was lazily sprawled across the counter playing with his pH and when anyone came in etc he sighed and made it obvious that he had a bad attitude. Sounded like the chefs where playing football in the kitchen it was that bad. Shame.

Where do I start? The mussels, the langoustines, the oysters, the fishcakes and fresh wheaten bread were to die for! I love fresh fish and seafood and hate anything deep fried! So, if you’re like me, check this place out. I will definitely return on my next visit home to Northern Ireland ☺️

We have been regulars to Dundrum over the years but this was our first visit for 3 or 4 years. "Let's revisit Mourne Seafood" we thought. Well we were SO impressed. Used to be good .. now really top class and with an interesting wine list added. Big plate of prawns to start .. thrn sublime black sole .. pan fried in brown butter. Staff are very attentive and enthusiastic. Do make that detour .. you won't regret it.

I had a meal on a Friday night during a recent visit to Dundrum to see family, and was very impressed.

From starters of oysters, fish cakes & squid, to mains of prawn linguini, salmon, lobster & hake, followed by chocolate ganache & sticky toffee pudding - I could find nothing but praise from start to finish. It was all absolutely perfect. The service was every bit as good as the quality of the meal. 10 out of 10.

This restaurant is first rate. The quality of everything we were served with, was exceptional. The guy who served us, Aidan, has a very pleasant friendly nature with a sense of humour. A lovely atmosphere is evident. We WILL return.

Visited with my wife,son & his partner. The restaurant is lovely and the waiters were friendly and service was excellentl. I chose seafood chowder to start followed by Hake on a cassoulet of chickpea and chorizo. The food was beautifully presented and so good. You need to book as the restaurant is very popular as is the branch in Belfast. The establishment is Michelin listed along with severel other awards, all well deserved. Worth a trip and can be combined with a lovely walk along the beach at the nearbyNational Trust nature reserve.

If you haven’t been here already you need to pay it a visit. The seafood menu is exceptional but there is also chicken & steak on the menu to suit everyone, I had the mussels which were delicious followed by the scampi which was mouth watering. Nice relaxed atmosphere with friendly helpful staff

Great service. Excellent seafood! Don’t miss the seafood chowder and the peel and eat langoustine. Marine decor and warm fireplace.

Had the salt and chilli squid to start was beautiful. Then had the best steak I have ever had, I have had a lot of steak! The service and atmosphere was excellent as well very friendly staff that know what they're doing.

My wife and I visited for lunch while we were over visiting family we ordered a bunch of starters what a lovely meal. The oysters, mussels, calamari, langostines were absaloutely fantastic the fries were great, all in all a fantastic hour or two spent and my wife ate oysters for the first time in her life will definitely be back

Beautiful tasting fresh fish .cant fault it.calamaries delicious. Mussels amazing. We also had their take away fish and chips a few days later. such a high standard. Staff are friendly and helpful. Of course we will return .

Had a lovely visit here on a Sunday afternoon. We shared the calamari which is outstanding- the batter is light and close to the squid. My girlfriend had the prawn linguine which looked great and tasted good too. However, it was maybe ever so slightly on the oily side. I had the fish and chips which is as good as you will find. Service was very friendly and quick.

We both like fish, so very ready to call here for a meal.

After a terrible visit some years ago, we decided to try this place again following some recommendations and we were not disappointed. Our group was 5 adults and 2 children and all were very pleased. Great food served in a friendly atmosphere by very personable staff. Recommended.

The takeaway fish and chips were excellent. Restaurant quality food to go. Great value. We will be back.

I've been a fan of this restaurant since it opened and used to make it a regular stop off following a mountain climb, especially for the Thai mussels. Unfortunately in recent years the food quality has dipped a little which is a pity because I really want this restaurant to work. The Thai mussels have long been absent from the menu so I went for the white wine and garlic version - EXCELLENT, and reminiscent of my early dining experiences here. Langastine scampi for mains was well cooked but covered in so much batter I couldn't actually taste it! To accompany, a girth of big fat (?frozen) chips that were so dry they required more tartare than was supplied. My wife's cod risotto was tasty but over seasoned and the cod overcooked. Also, her parmesan and truffle fries (an old favourite) were a far cry from how they used to be - now covered with mayo and pre-grated packet cheese, not the oily freshly grated originals. Please let's get back to focusing on the seafood with lighter sides. Hadkis (in Belfast) do great chips and copying theirs could be an easy initial improvement. Great service as always and a pleasant dining experience.

This used to be such a lovely restaurant with great food and a nice atmosphere and we had many great meals in here over the years. However on my last two visits the food and service has gone massively downhill. On our last two visits the staff have either been very cold and unattentive or on one occasion just plain rude.

Was looking forward to dinner here on a Saturday night as I knew it had a great reputation. The decor was lovely, no issues with the staff, the placed lacked atmosphere but may have been due to a quiet Jan. I was left underwhelmed by the flavour of the food for the price. Paella with prawns and chorizo was £17 it was served to me in a small blue shallow bowl, I counted 2 prawns and it tasted just ok. It just didn’t compare to other restaurants for example in Belfast where it is served in a cast iron pan with whole prawns etc for less. There was no wow factor. The other courses again were just ok but there was no punch with flavour. The food is pub grub at best and should be priced accordingly.

Fabulous Lunch with great food and friendly service. Happy days. We popped in an had the Chowder and the haddock. It was beautifully flaky white and huge into the bargain. We will return.

I came with my family for a birthday dinner and we were made so welcome as soon as we arrived. There was a good selection on the menu and I can highly recommend the squid starter and the scampi mains was beautiful. My husband had the totally amazing chowder as a starter and the cod risotto as mains. The food is just beautiful, the atmosphere warm and welcoming and we will be back.

Five of us had a wonderful dinner here. The service was excellent without being intrusive and the food was really superb. There is a very good wine list with reasonably priced options.

We ate here last night Thursday 30th Nov. The place has a lovely atmosphere, xmas lights everywhere with the fire blazing. Was very cosy. The food was very nice, we had 4 starters and mains, all of the party enjoyed everything also the waiter was very knowledgeable & a good laugh. This was my first visit but will definitely be back.

A friend and I visited this place for the first (and last) time not so long ago. A waiter escorted us to a very small table situated in a corner, which felt awkward and cramped, and on the outskirts of the main seating area. I politely asked a waitress if it would be possible to be seated at a different table. We were shown to a better table, but it had plates and remains of food on it, and she brusquely told us to go and sit at an adjacent table while she cleared the designated table.

Visited Mourne Seafood Sunday 11 November.Arrived around 6.00pm without a booking.

We went for dinner on a Friday evening. The restaurant was busy but not packed. The room we were in was a bit shabby. More like a sit-in fish and chip shop than a nice restaurant. The chairs were heavy kitchen chairs and not particularly comfortable. As the room we were in was in the far end of the restaurant it was difficult to attract the attention of the staff. We had asked for a delay between starters and mains. The staff were able to meet this request perfectly. However when our food arrived it was again a bit too much like a chip shop and not enough like a restaurant. One of our meals was fantastic, proper restaurant quality beautifully presented and perfectly cooked (whole Sole). The other 2 mains were very disappointing. Scampi and smoked haddock risotto.It was all a bit of a mish-mash. And while not ridiculously expensive it was not cheap either. Two starters and three mains totalling approximately £65. Then the crowning insult was being charged for sparkling water which we had not had. I pointed it out to the waiter, who immediately removed it, but did not apologise.

This is a brilliant restaurant, always buzzing but there are times you just want something simple to take away. Their takeaway fish and chips are as excellent as the food you might enjoy sitting in. The criteria is very simple...hot substantial chips, a crisp golden batter around a succulent fish. On that criteria they score big time so this place gets a massive tick in the box if you are passing and want something quick to take away. All good.

Been here several times before and food is always great. Lovely meal this evening. I had the paella and my wife enjoyed the hake. Just a little disappointed with the portion sizes which seem to have shrunk. I’m not a big eater but he paella was bearly bigger than a starter portion size.

This is my favorite restaurant with seafood. I'm never disappointed. always everything is fresh, well-seasoned and beautifully served. I also like to decorate the restaurant and its style. Even when I come back from trekking in the nearby mountains and I am not elegant dressed, I will gladly go there for lunch and feel good. everyone is very friendly and the food is delicious. I also love how a hot fire is lit up on cold days and evenings. I recommend visiting this place, for example, on the way to Newcastle.

Lovely meal & good service. Last minute choice to go as we were staying locally, got very warm welcome.

Lovely atmosphere, fantastic staff, out of this world food. Just the right level of attention from staff, no pushy pressure to get you to order, plenty of time given to choose, staff were friendly, happy and polite. The food was the best we've had in a long time. Usually when we eat out we always say "Could have done that as well or better at home." At Mourne Seafood it was "Worth every penny, fresh, bursting with flavour, hot and just the right amount." Extremely good value for money and we'll definitely be back.

We went for dinner. the place consists of several rooms all of which are decorated in modern colours. The tables are far enough apart to ensure privacy.

I ate dinner and lunch at this restaurant with a group of friends over the last few days. It’s a long time since I was in as good a seafood restaurant. Service friendly and fairly efficient and great value for money.

Recommended to us by our Cherryhill Lodge host, Mourne Seafood Bar was perfection. Some of the freshest seafood I've ever had. We had some natural oysters and two whole fish (sole and seabream). Staff were really friendly and attentive. A great night out

Five of us had dinner on a wet Saturday evening in August. Friendly efficient staff however it took an hour and 20 mins from arrival until we had main courses, though some of our party did have soup to start but still very slow. The food was good and very tasty but it arrived all piled onto the plate so it was difficult to negotiate a whole fish amidst a sea of veg and potatoes. Veg should have been brought in separate dishes - poor presentation.

Hmmm, not the best visit to this restaurant. Staff & Service were good but food was inconsistent. The Steaks were great. The Chowder was excellent. The Paella was indifferent, too salty and children’s portions, unfit for mature voracious adult men. The Calamari was anaemic and cold. The Chunky Chips were uncooked and inedible. The Guinness was excellent; it’s a good job there is the equivalent of a sandwich in every pint. The Desserts were good. The Price was not! Generally the meal was overpriced at almost £40 per head. Can’t select Ratings shown below because they don’t work on an iPad.

Locale carino, luminoso, con pavimento in legno e camino centrale.

Excellent experience from start to finish,I have a shellfish allergy and was put at ease by the server upon arrival. Amazing presentation.

The Mourne seafood Bar delivers consistently good food. I tried the sea bass and it was very flavourful. The service was friendly and efficient. I go to eat here every time I visit Ireland and am never disappointed. Give it a try.

We really enjoyed this restaurant the food was delightful. We had the mussels for starters, beer battered haddock, scampi and sea bream all extremely tasty and cooked to perfection. The staff where really great, friendly and helpful. My children and I were really impressed with the kids menu too all fish apart from sausage on the menu.

Visited the restaurant with a group of friends (eight in the party)
