NEO Restaurant in Bournemouth

Food was amazing would highly recommend going here, our waiter Marian was also amazing nothing was too much trouble, perfect evening out.

A stylish restaurant with views towards the pier. The service was excellent as was our meal. Everything about the establishment was first class including the beautiful circular bar downstairs.

We had the most wonderful evening celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary. They remembered it was our special day and gave us a lovely table by the window overlooking the seafront. Even had an anniversary card waiting for us. Service was friendly and attentive. The food was superb, can't fault it at all. Felt very spoilt. Can't wait to find an excuse to go back. Thank you Neo.

The Bramble cocktail was so nice I could drink it all night! Defo my fav!! I liked the mixed olives and the scallops to start. Wasn’t keen on the tiny crayfish starter, didn’t enjoy that at all. (No picture taken) For dessert I had the profiteroles. Was nice enough. Overall the service was good Would rate 4 out of 5

Had a lovely afternoon tea here for my partner's birthday. When we arrived we were taken to our table which was right in front of the window overlooking the sea, park and ferris wheel. There was even a birthday card on the table. The sandwiches were so fresh, the bread was lovely and soft and deep filled with delicious fillings. We had lots of mini cakes including macarons, cheesecake and trifles as well as scones with jam and clotted cream. They also bought out a candle on a mini cake for his birthday which was a lovely touch. The a service was wonderful, the staff were very polite, friendly and attentive and made us feel very welcome. It was an amazing day. Thank you for making his birthday special 💜🌷

Enjoyed another first-class afternoon tea at Neo’s, one of our favourite Bournemouth restaurants. As before, the food was excellent as was the service which was extremely friendly, efficient and nothing too much trouble. It was a special occasion and the welcome could not have been better. The view from the restaurant’s large glass windows is really lovely. We have been here a number of times before and will definitely return in the future.

Great ambience and food spoiled by very poor service. Nearly two hours for only two courses in spite of only a few other diners, with a waiter who was very indifferent. We then had to go downstairs to find someone for the bill and had to wait for her to come out of the kitchen. Seriously thought about deducting the service charge, as suggested by the guests we had brought for their first visit. In all of this discussion we forgot to ask for our car park charges to be deducted before paying the bill by card. Pointed this out and was told it was too late. Goodwill could have been recovered by offering them back, possibly via cash taken that day. All in all, a bit disappointing.

I had the Valentine's vegetarian set menu . The amuse bouche was very odd I could not tell whether it was meant to be sweet or savory. The starter was lovely. The main was pasta floating in a pool of butter. The taste was very cloying and uneventful so much of it was not eaten. Again it seems the vegetarians have been forgotten. My partner had the meat set menu and he was impressed.

4 of went for dinner to celebrate Friends Birthday. Off season (mid March) so restaurant was quiet which took away from atmosphere, but service and food were excellent. Staff attentive without being overpowering and provided “token” birthday cake with notice, which added to occasion! Starters, mains and deserts all had good selection and had great flavours and presentation. Extensive wine and drinks list at reasonable prices, and had amazing sea views !

Had an afternoon tea, was absolutely delicious

First time visiting Neo as we were visiting from out of area. Fixed price menu was exceptional value for money, real attention to detail and flavours of both our courses were amazing. We ordered a couple of cocktails and these were made with flair and a sense of drama! Service was friendly and discrete and we would love to visit again.

Food, service and atmosphere perfect. Marian, our server, was particularly attentive and made it a very memorable evening. Highly recommended.

Both food and service was second to none. A real gem in Bournemouth. Also fantastic for Gluten Free! Highly recommend, and Niki is a perfect host!

Amazing food and service as always. I would highly recommend Neo to everyone who wants to have a superb experience with high quality food.

We enjoyed a very tasty luxury afternoon tea. The staff, service and ambience were excellent. Thoroughly recommended.

Sunday lunch was a great experience from start to finish. The service was excellent the food was too. Could not fault it, the views are gorgeous the restaurant is beautifully laid up,it was a totally faultless visit.

We came to Neo for an afternoon tea as part of a hen do weekend. The location and interior was beautiful. The staff were excellent and attentive as well as the food being exquisite! We had the best time visiting Neo and will recommend to friends and family. Thank you for hosting our group of ladies.

The food, atmosphere and service was phenomenal. Had a really lovely evening here being served by Giuseppe.

Beautiful place to spend hubbies birthday and our anniversary, looking out to the sea front. Carla and Giuseppe were friendly, kind and attentive. The food was amazing looked as good as it tasted ❤️

An amazing Valentine's afternoon tea treat with cocktail, nice views too

Great venue and Marian out server was fantastic.

Delicious food. Our waiter and service excellent. Will definitely visit again soon.

Amazing place with delicious food and great service would definitely come back again and highly recommend

Pretty grim tbh. Over priced and too many loud smug punters

Cocktail Afternoon Tea Always a bit risky booking a Valentine Day meal out but as usual Neo exceeded expectation. Can’t really ask for more than that! Outstanding!

My Girlfriend wanted this as a Valentine's Day treat. So, we did it and she dumped me at the end of the day. Enjoy x

I was looking forward to this afternoon tea, but was disappointed with the quality of the sandwiches and cakes on offer. Bread was stale as left out as prepared earlier and some of the cakes were poorly presented, for the price paid would not recommend to anyone.

My friend and I enjoyed an afternoon tea here. The restaurant was lovely and clean, good atmosphere/music and friendly staff. Marian was very attentive and friendly. Would recommend!

Excellent in all respects. We will be back

Great experience for foodie in Bournemouth

Absolutely outstanding culinary experience with beautiful sea views. Been plenty of times, the NEO staff have never disappointed.

Both staff and food were excellent.

Had an amazing birthday celebration at Neo! The atmosphere was vibrant, the staff was super friendly and professional , the food was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

Great ambiance, good food. Creme brulee was the star, best I've had in a while. Special thanks to our waiter Marian who was very polite and friendly!

Overall great dining experience. We celebrated our anniversary here and it felt classy and elegant as we walked in. Our server Marian was patient and allowed us time to pick from the wide drinks menu. The food was served beautifully and tasted amazing. Would love to come back in the day time as well to check out the view !

Great value meal, tasty and well presented food. Good choice of drinks and I particularly recommend the smoky old fashioned, which was a piece of theatre!! Marian and Niki were very attentive. Thank you 😊

Lovely location, good food and drink choice. Excellent cocktails.

We had a lovely first experience at NEO. Came in to celebrate mine and my girlfriends anniversary - we were given an anniversary card as well as a small pudding to celebrate free of charge which was incredibly nice and made the occasion feel all that more special. Service, food and the view was excellent. Staff were very professional and catered for all our needs. We will certainly be coming back again. Thank you to Neo for all your hospitality and providing us with a great night! Jake

Had the chateaubriant deal for lunch,was excellent,so were the staff.Yummy cocktails.

This is a lovely spot. We dropped by for a coffee but stayed for dinner. Food is really good, and staff very friendly.

Today we celebrated two birthdays at the same time in this restaurant. Excellent food. A special thanks to Marian, for the service and explanations in Romanian.

I've been here on a few dates with the other half. Food has always been outstanding, the servers have been great. The most recent visit was for my birthday for a few cocktails and they were exquisite to look at and delicious to taste. I rate this place highly!

We had an amazing welcome by Giuseppe and the best drinks made by Liuba , food it is so tasty, amazing view from the restaurant as well!!! The best restaurant in Bournemouth!!!

I took my girlfriend out to Neo for her birthday, and it was a truly splendid experience. From the start, the service was professional and attentive, making us feel welcome. I had a passion fruit martini, and she had a lychee bloom—both were exceptional. We started with the cheese soufflé, which was light and flavorful, and then each enjoyed the surf and turf, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. To top it off, my girlfriend was surprised with a beautifully crafted birthday dessert plate. We were both blown away by Neo, from the service to the food and cocktails. It’s a must-visit in Bournemouth!

Super location to celebrate a special graduation

Lovely food and our servers Marian and Niki were exceptional

Absolutely stunning restaurant with some wicked views of hte beach! 🏖️🏖️🏖️ The staff are so kind, helpful, polite, extremely knowledge about what they are serving and willing to accommodate to most needs especially (for me) a gluten free diet. Their cocktails are...well.... Just divine! 🍹🍹🍹 The food is stunning absolutely lovely, gorgeous fillet steak I had 😋😋😋😋 Highly recommend coming here, considering booking for the new year! 🤪🤗🎉🎈🥳

Fantastic food and staff. Lovely decor & furnishings. Great views of the pier and beach. Thoroughly recommend.

Our family had an lovely afternoon tea at this beautiful place. The food was deliscious, service was very good and the view was great

Neo stands out in Bournemouth as a more upscale dining option, offering an elevated experience from the moment you step inside. The atmosphere exudes a sophisticated charm, setting the tone for an evening of quality dining. The staff’s attentiveness was a highlight, making it clear that service here is taken seriously. The menu reflects a thoughtful approach, with each dish crafted with care. The seafood linguine, in particular, was a standout, not only for its flavours but also for the attention to presentation—clearly, the kitchen takes pride in its plating. Though it comes at a higher price point than many places in town, the quality throughout every step of the dining experience makes it well worth the investment. Neo is a refined and well-curated spot that has earned its reputation by consistently delivering a top-notch experience.

Fantastic location, great food and amazing staff. The staff who looked after us during our eCommerce lunch & learn event were amazing and super helpful.

Lovely lunchtime meal, excellent service received from Marian - attentive whilst really respectful of our privacy

The waiter was very rude And didn't give time to settle in and order We were super annoyed by that

Marian our waiter was so professional. Food is excellent and cocktails are outstanding. 5 stars Neo thank you .

Lovely place for lunch, great views, cocktails and a la carte menu.

the evening was amazing! amazing food and drinks and the most amazing waiter Marian, he was absolutely lovely. Very helpful and friendly! all staff were so lovely! i really would recommend here! the cocktails are amazing!! x

Service was very attentive, Marian and Giusppe were lovely servers :) The starters were good, although the pear and beetroot carpacio was a lil stingy on the beetroot. The risotto needed more seasoning, but overall our experience was very nice and the atmosphere was lovely for a celebration. They were very sweet and gave us a lil birthday cake.

I came here for my birthday and loved the experience from start to finish. Georgia was an absolute delight and made me feel very special. Wonderful night. Would highly recommend

Excellent service from Georgia- friendly, professional and went the extra mile

Our waiter Marian was great. He took very good care of us and even overheard us talking about our friend’s birthday and brought him a complimentary dessert at the end of the meal. The only issue with the food was that I asked for my steak ‘medium’ and it came out definitely much more ‘medium rare’ - and more on the rare side than medium. Marian did ask how our food was halfway through; I didn’t say anything because I hadn’t started eating my steak at that point (I’m weird and like to leave it until the end). Still, he took 20% of the cost of the steak off our bill which was a nice gesture and we took the other half home for the dogs who were very grateful. Other than that, we asked for lime twists in our vodka martinis and got lemon twists (sounds minor, but not if you can’t stand lemon - it really changes the taste). Everything considered, Neo didn’t seem quite as stand out as the few times I’ve been before really, but it was okay.

Georgia was great! Perfect service - thank you

Thanks so much, had a lovely meal! Marian was exceptional. Would come back again because of great food and service 🤓

Great food, even better service from the lovely Georgia.

Amazing food. Great location. Great views. Great service.

Marian was a lovely server! Streak was excellent

Pre- Theatre meal. We had the Sunday pre set meal which I would recommend if going to a show. My only disappointment was the cheese soufflé which was like an over cooked omlette but other than that the food was good. All helped by the excellent customer service delivered by Marian who made our visit by their friendliness 🥰

Fantastic birthday dinner for 10 people. Very well organised from table booking and pre-order, to arrival, being seated and served. Incredibly attentive staff, fabulous food and great atmosphere. Highly recommend this place for a special occasion. Thank you to all the lovely folks involved in the evening :-)

Had a lovely birthday meal!! Great food and service by Marian. Thank you!!

Always amazing food. Such a lovely mix of flavors. Marian was our server and he was so kind and always with a smile. Made the whole experience better. Will always come back.

Came here to eat tonight with my partner. The food was amazing. Georgia made our experience a lot better than what it was! Exceptional service and very accommodating. She was very bubbly and friendly throughout the whole experience as well as very knowledgeable of the menu. Thank you so much Georgia. A special thank you to Carla who greeted us at the door with a positive welcoming and the bartender for making the best drinks. Lovely team tonight!! :)

Beautiful food, so flavoursome, decoratively served and nothing was too much trouble. We were made very welcome and our waitress Georgia was polite, engaging and helpful. We will definitely book again soon.

Food was great. Georgia was lovely too. Very nice lunch thanks

A glass of champage and the Lamb was an excellent choice . Georgia looked after us well and suggested that we should have a bottle of wine instead of three glasses excellent advice . Will go again and again

Georgia was incredibly attentive and friendly. Always smiling and checked on us regularly. The food was perfect as always. Thank you

I went to this restaurant on the 7th of September with 7 friends we had such a fantastic experience & evening food was amazing staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble special mention for Georgia & Marian made our night special thank you

Good food, drink and atmosphere but Georgia, our server, made dining at Neo great. She went out of her way to resolve minor issues, give us excellent personal service and was friendly, efficient and professional throughout. Give that girl a rise!

Marian really helped us choose our dishes and we were really pleased.

Georgia was a brilliant waitress! Very attentive, great service. Delicious food as always.

Georgia our service person was great, food was wonderful and had a fantastic night. Will return when back in UK from Aus🐨

Loved Neo restaurant and would absolutely visit again💯 Our server Georgia was amazing and actually made sure we were enjoying our meal and drinks.

LJ and Georgia were wonderful all night. Made sure we had everything and more that we needed!

Beautiful restaurant with views of the ocean. Loads of lovely cocktails and the food is of a very high standard. My only reason for four stars is that there were only two main course vegetarian options on the menu and one of them was unavailable. However, the chef made up a different plate that was delicious. We were served by Georgia, who was very professional, efficient and friendly. Georgia was so helpful and welcoming; she made our visit that much more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend NEO - this was our second visit and we will definitely return next time we're in Bournemouth. Hopefully we will see Georgia again!

It was mine and my boyfriend’s 3 year anniversary, and our first time as Neo, we had an amazing time and were treated wonderful by the lovely waitress Georgia. We will definitely be coming here again 🩷

The staff who looked after us this evening were excellent. From the minute we walked through the door and were greeted at reception by Maria who was incredibly professional and super friendly, our evening kicked off to a superb start. The cocktails were amazing from our cocktail mixologist Luda and Georgia who served us in the restaurant was brilliant. All in all, every single member of staff were tremendous and made us feel special. Thanks to all of you. 🙏🏼

Georgia was very polite and friendly and catered very well for our dining needs.

Amazing food, vibes, cocktails and staff! Georgina went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Thank you x

Some loud music, everything else was great

Georgia’s service was exceptional! Food delicious as always & very accommodating for fussy children. Will definitely be back!

I think this restaurant is located at the best part of Bournemouth and has absolutely the best view. The service is great the gentleman serving us was very welcoming and helped us to choose the best meals of this restaurant. The food was also very delicious and filling. We tried cheese soufflé which was beyond perfect. Risotto and roasted chicken for main course which were very tasty and the portions were very big so we couldn’t finish the whole meal. Highly recommended 10/10

Okay place for a meal with my partner. The staff did seem very abrupt at times.

Had a really nice meal here and everyone seemed to enjoy the food. Staff were friendly and really attentive. The vegetarian selection was limited, with one of the two starters listed as vegetarian using a non-vegetarian cheese. This made me weary about whether the other dishes that were listed as vegetarian, truly were. I opted for a vegan main, which was genuinely nice, as were their triple cooked chips. Dessert was tasty as well, but the opera cake was described as having cherries and almonds as key ingredients, but I was unable to taste either. The drinks list was only the alcoholic options, so we had to ask for the soft drinks option and then wait for the server to list off the options. The virgin mojito that we decided on was very nice.

Levi was fantastic, brilliant food brilliant service

Wonderful service from the bartender taking over as hostess, to the two wait staff who were attentive and accommodating. Wonderful experience with a great view of the moon over the Ferris wheel. A must for a chilled vibe with great food, drinks, service and views. Thanks to Marian and staff making it a great evening.

Neo was delightful. The staff, our waiter Levi in particular was very attentive. I was also impressed with how quickly we received all courses of our meal. The Spring Vegetable Risotto with added prawns was delightful.

Brilliant service Fantastic drinks nice atmosphere Would recommend to visit this place

Great food and top service. Marian was really friendly and would highly recommend.

Wonderful experience dining at Neo. Marian and Carla provided exceptional service, can’t think of a single suggestion for improvement. We had a wonderful table to enjoy the Bournemouth views and the food was stunning. All in all a fantastic time for my husband’s 50th, we will definitely visit again!

Lovely place with good view, lovely servers Mariaty and Carla

We've had some drinks here this evening and would like to thank Maria for welcoming us and for the service. She's made our niece's vacation in Bournemouth memorable! Xx

Delicious food and excellent and friendly service, thank you!
