Myca's seafood and Grill in East Devon

It looks more like a 'caff' than a seafood restaurant but don't let that fool you - the menu is packed with fish and seafood and it's excellent.

Managed to squeeze in on a Saturday evening at short notice when visiting family. And what a treat! Absolutely loved it there. The cuttlefish was delicious. Well cooked and lots of flavour with lovely dressed salad and home made chips. My family had the Misto which was a selection of fish and they ate it all with big smiles. We will return next time we're there to try some more things off the menu! Lovely friendly atmosphere!

Once again we visited Myca’s seafood restaurant which just happens to be my favourite restaurant in my favourite seaside town of Sidmouth. Luckily for us we got to sample their new summer menu, as if the winter menu didn’t offer up amazing choices, which has some new additions including a grilled Cuttlefish which is smothered in garlic butter and a plaice dish that featured on the specials menu along with Cod, Hake and Gurnard. Dimitri, the Chef Patron was running a very busy service while front of house we had Natalie, who is a wonderful host, and young Roxana as our servers. These wonderful ladies even brought a bowl of water and a couple of biscuits for our little pooch Ralf. As always the food was delicious and so fresh. The wine menu has a really good choice as has the dessert menu. The Eaton Mess was literally to die for and Natalie makes a mean Irish coffee, it’s not on the menu but just ask her for one. 10 out of 10 again and I’m counting down the days until I visit again.

Outstanding fresh fish lunch. Delicious food and attentive staff. Highly recommend visiting, though make sure to book if you are looking to dine in the evening.

On a cold Friday night we’ve found this little cosy restaurant on the main fore street. Such a beautiful and fresh fish we’ve got, misto ( selection of 3 fish) and swordfish with a homemade chips.Spot on

Beautiful seafood in a fresh and modern restaurant. Very accommodating to us and our baby, so much so we visited for lunch two days in a row. Just what Sidmouth needed. Will definitely be returning!

Lovely, fresh food and good service. We are local and this is one of our favourite places to visit. Seafood is wonderful and we always enjoy our visits here

Very fair. Excellent service, but food very indifferent and not much atmosphere. Used to be so lovely as the blues bar. What else can I say?

Really good chowder and mixed grill Chips not great not needed don’t bother serving them! Just like McDonald’s there’s plenty enough food without them

Outstanding restaurant. We didn’t book and went on a Tuesday night for our wedding anniversary. We are so glad we didn’t eat in the hotel but here instead. Lovely fresh food/ingredients. . Best meal I ve had in a very long time, the restaurant also had a very relaxing and welcoming vibe. Waitress was friendly and attentive. To see others enjoying the food midweek as much as us is a testament to how good this place is (we had the fish options / delicious)

Recommended by a friend but very disappointed. The battered fish was very soggy and the portions of chips pretty stingy, although I was given more when requested. And why is there gluten in the seafood chowder?! We shall not return

We really enjoyed eating at Myca’s. The service is welcoming, efficient and good humoured. Expect beautifully presented and tasty fish, with an extensive selection. Highly recommended.

I savoured the mid-day delights of Myca's during my last visit to Sidmouth last November, when I tried their grilled Halibut which was delicious! This time, (Thursday 11th January) we decided to try the Misto which consisted of 3 different fish, Tuna, Salmon and Sardine and which was served with sauté potatoes and a beautifully prepared salad plus some sauce Tartare. We are both gluten and dairy free and Myca's just took it in their stride....no fuss! The Misto is really to be recommended with its delicate use of garlic, chilli and herbs and its beautiful presentation......ten out of ten !! The lady who served us was very welcoming and attentive and was particularly helpful regarding our allergies. Also the latin jazz background music was just right for the atmosphere without being intrusive or irritating like pop music so often is..... A lunch to really remember.......we'll be back!!

Visited with family for catch up. We had starters to share between 4 and they were lovely, seabream was lush and salmon. Mains were good and catered for allergies without any fuss what so ever. Not rushed. Doh friendly. We will be returning. Nice to see a new place to eat in Sidmoutj.

After reading the glowing reviews I found the food to be very disappointing. In the Seafood Misto (£22, so not cheap) the frozen catering chips were bland; the salad soggy and under-dressed; the monkfish dry, overcooked (or reheated) and tasteless; the swordfish ditto; the seabreem (sic) was OK. The Eton Mess seemed to have been made by someone who had lost the recipe and, despite assurances otherwise, the 2-3 small pieces of crunchy meringue were more likely commercial than homemade. I ate it all because I had paid for it but it wasn't very good. I never complain in a restaurant: either they have done their best but it's just not good enough or they have deliberately served sub-standard food. Either way complaining doesn't do me any good...I just don't go back. I've gone with a generous 3 stars because the staff were nice.

Being a head chef for over 30 years I often find it hard to find places to eat. I live in Sidmouth and work at one of the Hotels. Mycas has been my go to place on days off to eat. The mixed grill was amazing and all the meat was cooked to perfection!. The fish and chips is of good quality and also worth trying. The menu is good and has something for everyone.

Really nice and friendly service but the food doesn't match the price tag. Had a fish platter for £27, really average, looked and tasted like a M&S meal deal, wouldn't recommend this as place to eat.

Simple food, done really well! For years Sidmouth has needed a good restaurant in the heart of town , and finally there is one. Great attentive service, super quantity and quality of the fish and a great price ! All round really good, this was my second visit and every time I visit Sidmouth I will come back ! Keep it up, just great!

Fantastic dinner at Mycas. There were 5 of us and we all had different things, Misto, monkfish curry, carbonara, lamb… all plentiful and delicious. Puddings were fab too. Waitresses kind and friendly. Music ambient and it was nicely busy for a Wednesday. Look forward to returning soon!

A really lovely restaurant with a Mediterranean feel! The service was excellent and the food was sublime! We cannot wait to eat here again to experience more of the same - thank you!

Recently opened but already popular I suggest you book in advance. Very informal with friendly chatty waitresses. We enjoyed Prawn Cocktail and Scallops with Prawns for starters. This was followed by Chicken Burger and Carbonara. Be warned helpings are huge. Slightly dissapointing I had the added chicken version of the Carbonara but the chicken was just overlaid on the dish and was therefore slightly dry rather than being cooked in the creamy sauce. I would however return to this restaurant.

Lovely seafood restaurant we found yesterday to celebrate our anniversary meal! Very pleasant decor and ambience, would definitely recommend and visit again when in Sidmouth

The food was good, but there seems to be something of an emphasis on garlic. Most of the fish is cooked or served with garlic butter, you can choose to have it without the garlic, which two of our party did. They also chose to...

A really good sea food restaurant, we both enjoyed our food, good value and nice atmosphere, and nice decor

A super find in Sidmouth! Would thoroughly recommend eating here.The bistro is clean and the ambiance is soothing and pleasant. The staff are friendly, courteous and helpful. Food is delicious and there is an excellent range of seafood to choose from. Prices are very reasonable...

First class experience at this relatively new addition to Sidmouth dining. Chowder as starter or main is highly recommended, as is the Scallop and Prawn combo starter. The table service was pleasant, speedy and made for a very pleasant evening at a reasonable price.

We had a lovely lunch, the food was amazing and the staff efficient and very friendly. We took our dog and he was welcomed with treats and water. The atmosphere was lovely, everyone dining there seemed happy and chatty. Would definitely recommend.
