Shelley's Restaurant in Weymouth and Portland

Amazing roast delivered to the door. Great quality food (Beef was amazing!) and veg and good value for money for sure. Will definitely do this again! Thank you.

I visited Weymouth with my gf for an anniversary getaway, and I can honestly say this restaurant was one of the highlights and will live long in the memory! Not only was the food one of the best I've ever had, the service was fantastic (I can't remember the young lad's name but he was great) and the price was really competitive! Also, the chef came in and asked how the food was which was nice. I hope this place gets busier during the summer months, it really deserves to do well. Thanks again!

We have stayed in the hotel a few times and eaten in the restaurant we came down this weekend for our wedding Ann again we had a fab meal at a reasonable price the set menu has lots of options and the chef aka chunki will accommodate changes well worth a visit if you go once you will be hooked portion sizes are generous price very competitive and the food home made with flavours that are amazing well done for an enjoyable wedding Ann

My partner and I ate here recently as we were staying at the hotel Richmoor. its located on the ground floor of the hotel,and boy am I glad we did , The chef is a guy called Alex but goes under the name of his brand name called Chunki chef. The restaurant is small, intimate and very relaxing . We were welcomed and shown to our table by very pleasant young lady, There is a good selection of wines spirits and beers on offer,but that is to be expected . What was not expected was the food , Described as "posh rustic " all I can say is WOW , My partner had beef and I had lamb and we tried each other's dish, the combination of flavours are mouth-watering delicious and the presentation was wonderful. We had three courses and every one was a delight. All in all this is fine dining at it's best for less than 25 quid each . If it was London you would be paying upwards of 100 quid per head . Weymouth has a very talented chef on there hands .

My husband and I visited here last night and had an absolutely fantastic three course meal. The food was beautifully presented and each course tasted amazing. The staff were very attentive and the restaurant itself has a lovely, intimate ambience. This place deserves to thrive.. We will be back!

Came as a walk in on Thursday evening valentine's evening what a little diamond of a place, situated in the richmoor hotel, beautiful table setting, friendly hosts, menu was a delight, beef was stunning as was my partners pork belly, well seasoned and melted in our mouths, desert of Bakewell with custard, never seen that on a menu so I was intrigued, it was more than stunning absolutely delicious, we didn't sample the started as jumped straight into the mains, very we'll priced, I would pay more for the quality on offer, very nice touch to see the chef greeting his diners, very nice touch and needed more in other establishments. Wish this was in my area this would be a regular haunt of ours. Sublime

Me and my partner ate in shelleys last night and were not dissapointed. The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and we left full! For the quality of the food and service from the staff i would happily pay more. Would definitely recommend. Compliments to the chef!

Quite a good menu though surprisingly little sea food. Tasty offerings but vegetables cold. Service from the young lady very good

Absolutely Blimmin gorgeous! Will definitely be ordering again. Good sized meals with Food that was incredibly tasty and great value for money. All the joys of a home cooked roast with the hassle! Thank you Shellys!!!!! This is one happy mama this eve 😘

I still love eating here the staff are friendly Ricky in particular is a favourite with the children. Timely service and great food, cosy atmosphere.

As a guest of the Richmoor hotel we received a generous discount off of our food order which made it good value, the service was excellent and the drinks very reasonable

We were staying at the sisterly hotel next door so we decided to try it out, also we picked up a 20%of voucher from reception. The food was amazing but the portion sizes were massive, so go hungry. Great waiter who was rushed off his feet but was brilliant with everyone.

Order 2 steaks one vere well don one well don one ok uthere one came rare sent back it came back it was the same stake & trimmings & it was still medium rare & trimmings were all dried up not worth the money that need a new chef wood not rare this as there in no punt as - 10 stars is not an option

you wont be disappointed, very satisfying, good and welcoming place to eat . Lovely staff. Always have great deals too.

We went in for the steak offer. It was beautifully cooked and well presented, as was the restaurant and staff. Sadly the service lets it down. Friendly and helful staff but intermittent in their attendance. Even though the two steaks and a bottle of wine for £29.95 seems to be advertised daily, we were still charged for a bottke if wine and overcharged for both sides that we ordered. It was rectified and apologies made, it took them some considerable time to work out their errors. Some staff training and removing unsavoury guests and smokers from the entrance steps, together with a few flower pots would attract more guests to enjoy the creations if a very good chef.

The food was excellent, very much a jewel in the crown at the Richmoor Hotel, the service was very good

Amazing food served, though mostly I had desert and starters. Very friendly barmaid/ waitress, having to leave the restaurant to get the meals from the rest of the hotel.

We ate at 7 and were the only people in the restaurant? Lots of people are missing out on a superb dining experience. Set inside the Richmoor hotel, it is open to passing trade and is well worth a visit

B'fast 10/10 Dining 10/10 Tom the chef produced an excellent meal and hid B'fast is a must have, really worth getting out of bed for.

Saw amazing food go by on a cold rainy, windy night. We’d dined earlier, but needed warmth and sustenance. Got much more.

We stayed at the Richmoor Hotel (that is another story!) and decided to just have dinner at Shelley’s on our first night. There was only one girl serving, and she seemed very young. The service was good. And the food was nice. The hotel promotes a 2 steaks and a bottle of wine for £30 deal...this was not available during our whole stay. The food in Shelley’s was better than the breakfast food!

Terrible food staff rude arrogant see staff picking there nose while serving drinks off bad beer absolute never recommend going here

Ate here last night accommodated a group of 9 of us within an hour of calling

After watching the carnival procession a group of 10 of us decided to go for a meal in Shelley restaurant (richmoor hotel) what a mistake that was ....we ordered the food and after a good 40 minutes we were finally served the food .....3 of our party had fish with 2 of the pieces still being frozen inside we sent them back to have more cooked but we waited a further 30 mins for the new pieces to appear even after asking twice for them ...the chef then came up and said they are on there way we told him that we couldn't wait any longer as it.was nearly 10 pm having first gone in just after 8 pm he then muttered something and walked out ....we asked to see the duty manager in which the owner of the hotel came in and the next bit was shocking....she told us that the chef in tonight was a relief chef and therefore thrown in the "deep end" as the regular chef's wife was currently in hospital not long left ...I pointed out to her what did that have to do with the situation concerning our food and I was very sorry for the chef wife ...the owner then said that she would take some money off our bill if we were not to put a review on Tripadvisor as it would ruin her reputation I call that bribery ..... I feel what she said to our party was completely unprofessional and actually quite disturbing to give such person information to complete strangers especially with 2 children sat a there ..... I certainly would not recommend this restaurant at all .

Il locale è molto moderno, rinnovato da poco. Il personale è molto cordiale e disponibile. Il servizio veloce. Ottimo sia...

Llamado con mi esposa y mi suegro como la comida había sido recomendado. La comida estaba bien, pero había perros en el restaurante, que nos desanime

Comí con mi familia en el restaurante una noche y la comida estaba bien, dependiendo de lo que tenía. Mi costillas (en el especial era genial), sopa de mi papá era como agua con sabor sin embargo el personal de la cocina estaban bien como...

Buena comida. Camarero agradable (Jamie). Aceptan Tastecard. No hay muchos clientes, pero fue a mediados de semana. Quizás más animado en los fines de semana.

Lovely clean and relaxing atmosphere to eat in, the decor was very nice too, special mention to Jamie, who let...

La posizione é gradevole sul lungomare, all'interno dell'albergo Richmoor. È piacevole, pulito e la ragazza del servizio molto cortese, affabile e attenta. Il menù offre una buona scelta tra carne e pesce. I piatti buoni nella media così come il rapporto qualità/prezzo

Be warned about going to the Shelley’s on the seafront over the one in the town centre! When we booked we were told that the food would not be to the level of the Dining Room but it was still very good (this was fine for me and my party). Though the food was okay (and I wouldn’t say it was any better than just okay) the experience was completely ruined by the place itself and the staff. We were the only ones in the restaurant and it took over 15 minutes just to get the drinks we ordered! On arrival of the drinks I noticed my wine glass was chipped so asked for a new one, though my glass was replaced I did not receive any sort of apology (I was more annoyed about not receiving an apology rather than the chipped glass). Another member of my party ordered a coke which tasted like funny water, I’m fully aware that coke from a tap tastes slightly different, but this tasted as though the syrup for the machine had run out! Again we asked for another and could hear a very hostile conversation in the background from the staff saying it tasted perfectly fine to them (not that they tried to keep their conversation very private from us). Now on to the food, let me reiterate that we were the only ones in the restaurant at this point, it took over an hour to get our food! At this point the majority of the party weren’t too impressed and I think this ruined our actual experience of the food. One member of the party had asked for chips instead of potatoes and not surprisingly this request was completely ignored. Our waiter asked if he should take the plate back to change it to which my friend responded that he was too hungry to wait any longer so will just eat what was given, the waiter’s response was that he would go and get an extra portion of chips for him right away. Now the bill has come, do you think the extra portion of chips was ever provided? Of course not! So I questioned the waiter about why he said he was going to bring the extra portion and didn’t do it, all I got in response was ‘sorry’ which isn’t actually an answer to my question. I sincerely hope this branch of Shelley’s is not using all the glory from the Dining Room restaurant as it certainly isn’t deserving of this reputation. We were all out for my mother’s birthday and what could have been a lovely dinner on the sea front turned out to be quite a miserable one due to the service and attitude of the staff.

Fab food with a variety of 'specials' besides regular menu, all excellently cooked by new chef Stephen. I would highly recommend the rump steaks, 2 for £20.00, excellent value especially when other places nearby are charging £20.00 each!

Stopped for a drink and a bite to eat, and was not dissapointed, good menu, and food was fine. Will return

We had a plated roast beef meal at 6pm which had been obviously left over from sunday lunch, quite tasty but a bit dried up around the edges. Plenty of food. Sam the waiter very helpful, but every time adked for help was told not a problem which was very irritating. Was quite enjoyable until the music was turned on, which was too loud & sound system very screechy. Ptices reasonable though.

Stopped in for a carvery on a very wet bank holiday Sunday.The food was really good, great selection of vegetables, and sides.Restaurant was lovely.Have to say Tony who carved was really cheerful and polite, and John who was waiting the tables couldn't have been more helpful.Great food, wonderful staff, will be back next time we are down, great value for money.

Booked here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Quiet evening (but it is a bit out of season), but we were well looked after by the staff. Lovely food, which was beautifully presented. Will definitely return.

In weymouth on a saturday night , with a young lady of impeccable character ( my wife ) who didn't fancy walking far from our hotel , I scouted this place at the far end of the Promenade, by the church .Bit modern and metallic , but sparkling . We kept life simple with their headline offer - 2 8oz steaks & trimmings plus a bottle of wine for £30 . An excellent meal , and we would happily go again . What really complemented it was the house wine ( we chose the Chilean Merlot ,By Healy & Gray ) , so much so that I have just ordered a crate at around £6 per bottle . Impeccably served at the ideal temperature , this made the evening . Recommended on to the hotel .

I visited Shelly's when we came down to visit friends .They recommended that we go and try it out as they had been several times and said meals were excellent .So we did.And very happy indeed .Meal was to die for .sweet was fab .Staff were very friendly and nothing was a problem .Lovely clean restaurant.I have told my family when they visit to definitely go in .Would like to compliment the chef john for his excellent meal from start to finish was best I have every tasted .Good luck to him and the staff as they do a fantastic job .We will definitely be bk again .I wouldn't go anywhere else for my food as it's the best I have ever eaten .Thanks again John for beautifull meal .see you soon .Well done keep up the excellent work .

I visited Shelley's with my friend for Sunday lunch, what a lovely experience, from the moment we walked in the staff were great and the food was fantastic would highly recommend visiting if you are in Weymouth.

The menu was quite expensive and a bit limited. I ordered steak and did not want chips so I noticed a croquet potato on the menu with the lamb so I requested that instead. It came up tasting of lamb which was horrible. They should have mentioned that it was obviously cooked in the lamb fat. Also the steak was very very touch so left the complete dinner. I told them the steak was tough but they just said they would tell the chef? Will not be back.

The service the food and the atmosphere was lovely. We had breakfast and evening meal for 2 days. Lovely. We would definitely go again.

Group of 23 stayed for 2 nights recently. Lovely restaurant, service excellent. Breakfast couldn't fault, choice and quality for evening meal really good. All the group more than happy with the food. Def worth a visit. Would be happy to go back. .

Had the special two steaks and a bottle of wine for £29.95.This was such good value for money, the food was excellent the service also could not be faulted.thank you so much for a lovely meal

We visited Shelley's one night and to be honest regret it. This was one of the most disappointing meals we have had. We chose from the menu the belly pork with apple. To start with they had no apple sauce to serve with it. When it arrived it was smothered in gravy. It would of been nice to have chosen where the gravy was put not just have it poured all over the meal. Then when we stared eating we discovered one of the pieces of belly pork was 90% fat. The small piece of meat on it was a joke. The way the staff treated us when I complained about the food was appalling and disrespectful. If you want good food while in Weymouth I suggest you cross the road to Al Molo.

Excellent food and service. Very good value for money. We had two steaks and a bottle of wine for £30. It was quality resturant food and great wine.Polite friendly service.

Went here for meal last night. Steak for two and a bottle of wine £29.95. We selected a bottle from the list and the young lad came back with aternative saying that they never had what we asked for chilled enough so ok excepted that. Them food well we asked for one steak well done and one medium rare. When they came out looked fantastic. Bit on inspection my steak was undercooked and was far from well done. So was taken back to the kitchen to be cooked more. Mean while I nibbled on the onion rings which where really nice. I did notice that there was 3 members of staff and where all very young and one had only just started work the day before. They stud around discussing my under cooked steak. When it came back I enjoyed alot. The table next to me ordered the same wine as we originally order and they hot a very cold bottle strange?. What upset me the most was even when I complain they where aloud to stay was a man and his dog came into the restaurant and sat and have a beer. Very un hygienic. But the lad said I no its so bad. then told the man that I had made a complaint he was happy but I was not I am a dog lover buy they don't go in a restaurant unless a aided dog. So food eventually served and ok but over all service from all staff discusting.

Went here for an evening meal at the end of June. Two of us had the steak meal offer of two steaks with a bottle of win for £29.95. I had the pasta dish. The presentation of the steak was excellent - it was beautiful! In fact I was sorry that I didn't have a camera to take a picture. It was very tender as well. Only the chips/potatoes which were served separately in a pot, could have done with being smaller in size - they were huge! The service that night wasn't up to standard because they had been let down by staff, so members of the hotel were doubling up to help out, but I'm sure it would be fine when they have their normal compliment of staff. Would I eat here again? Most definitely. Modern ambience on the prom.

Fantastic Carvery best ever but looking forward to eating upstairs in the stunning new restaurant overlooking the sea

What a lovely restaurant. ..So so magnificent! !Unfortunately word has not got a round yet as it wasn't very busy.We went for the blackboard special .."Two Steaks and a Bottle of wine £30"We were very suprised 8oz Rump steak cooked to your liking. .perfect steak cooked to perfection. ..no fat .. not tuff ..Just melted in our mouths!!Supporting the beautiful steaks were hand cut chip potatoes in a posh tray with mushroom and peas.The bootle of wine was a fine Australian dry wine which went down to easily.The manager was a maestro in customer service and the young waiter was extremely helpful.We also had a lovely table with a sea view.

We visited the restaurant this evening and ordered two steaks and a bottle of wine. The food was very tasty, very hot and excellent presentation. We will be coming back on our next visit. The waiter Jamie was extremely attentive and friendly and welcoming and provided excellent service Keep up the good work!!

We booked here while on holiday in Weymouth because we had seen some good reviews and we were not disappointed. Two of us shared their steak offer. Two pieces of steal plus a bottle of wine for £29. The steak was delicious and perfectly cooked. It came with some of the best hand cut chips I have ever eaten, mushroom, tomato and peas. All beautifully presented. One of our group is vegetarian and had the sautéed gnocchi with wild mushrooms. She was so happy. Her first comment was "from now on I am going to start sautéing my gnocchi!". She said they were definitely her best ever gnocchi eating experience and was a very happy diner. Our fourth member had the crispy pork belly. A very generous portion and she too was full of praise for the presentation and flavours. Our puddings were also of a very high standard; a chocolate and pecan brownie so enormous that even though two of us shared it ( it was yummy) we couldn't finish it. The other two had cherry & almond clafoutis. They had to wait 15 minutes as they were cooked to order. The wait was worth it.Our waiter Scott was friendly, helpful and very responsive to all our needs.I cannot imagine how they can produce such quality for the ridiculously small price we paid.I advise people to book quickly before they double the prices.

Food and service was excellent. Good menu choice. Special offer was 2 steaks with a bottle of wine for£30 although I chose the seafood.

Delicious steak, the deal (2 steaks and a bottle of wine for £29 is very good!) however the service was a little average, the place lacked atmosphere and was very empty even on bank holiday weekend.

Lovely meal - food was excellent & very fast - 2 steaks & bottle of wine is a brillaint deal for £29

The food at Shelley's was very good , served by friendly staff. I asked for an omelette, which wasn't on the menu and it didn't cause a problem.

Do go food very good, reasonably priced, beautifully cooked presented, good size portions and tasty.We would definitely eat here again.

We were staying at a guest house nearby and came in for the special offer, steak was great and a lovely cheese board to follow . Worth a visit

We were staying at a B&B nearby and ate here for all three nights of our stay as it was so nice. The food was delicious and well presented and cannot fault the service we received from the Scottish waiter (sorry didn't catch your name) who served us on all three nights. Well worth a visit.

Shelleys is thee place I go to now for steak. In a town with lots of competition this one still takes the cake. The waiter Jack never fails to impress, can't say more really. Try the Fillet Steak here, thank me later.

2 steaks and a bottle of wine for £29.95. Really good food. Steak cooked just how we like it. Restaurant staff very friendly and engaging. Well worth a visit.

We chose this restaurant as it was in our hotel. What a treat! It is a little pricey but well worth splashing out on whilst on your holiday!

Been to Shelleys a few times, always get really good service, the waiter Jaymie is always really attentive and friendly. The food is second to none and you won't get better anywhere else.It's changed recently and the decor is fab! I strongly urge anyone looking for a nice meal to come to this place... Not only do they do fine dining meals but they offered a lunch menu which has more simple foods which I loved. If you're going to eat here you have got to try the Shelleys Burger. Will be back soon.

An Easter weekend away in Weymouth to visit family included a sunday lunch at Shelleys Restaurant in The Richmoor Hotel.Having lived, worked and visited many times to Weymouth, I am aware that it is not a culinary hot bed, and have endured many, at best, average dining experiences, I had hoped for better here. Sadly not.Our table was booked downstairs in the carvery area, but due to a busy service, we were moved to the upstairs dining room. This was a real blessing, as downstairs was like a furnace, and in desperate need of air conditioning. while upstairs is a calm, clean, modern area, with a pleasant sea view.The food was not poor, just lacking real flavour and seasoning.The starters included a black pudding dish, which sounded good on the menu, but when it arrived it was with a bit of over cooked roast pork, some bland mash and a tasteless powder mix gravy- ruining a very good black pudding ! The soup was fine and seemed homemade.Our main courses were from the carvery, and again a bit bland and not well seasoned. the veg selection was ok and generally not to over cooked, but no greens, and again not seasoned. One big downer- the gravy- awful . No excuse if your cooking all those joints in house, which the chef assured me they did.Limited desserts, but we had the homemade apple crumble which was ok.Drinks selection was fine and not over priced, and a simple wine list, again not over priced.The service here needs some work. The staff were all polite and pleasant but there was a lack of any real food service skills and knowledge here. one point in particular, and a real bug bear of mine, Dont clear plates until all guests have finished eating. I pointed this out to the young man clearing us, but he still carried on !!Prices here were not over the top, although the 8.95 carvery main course price was bumped up to 12.95 when I used the tastecard to pay. Naughty, and against the principal of the taste card offer.This review may seem a bit harsh on a restaurant that is generally no worse than any of the 30 or so restaurants I have tried throughout the town which I have not reviewed. But with some staff training, and some effort with some cooking, flavouring and seasoning techniques, you have the chance to move away from the very mediocre standard of Weymouth restaurants.

A Restaurant integral within The Richmoor HotelA Dog Friendly Hotel, located at the end of Weymouth’s Esplanade.The hotel was found to be in a clean and generally well maintained state.The staff were all found to be very friendly and attentive to us and our two dogs. The Hotel’s inclusive breakfast in “Shelleys” was of a hot buffet style and was of an excellent standard and well presented. Having two dogs we were given the option of having our breakfast in “Shelleys” where the dogs are allowed at this time of day.We did sample the evening meal at the integral restaurant “Shelleys” This again was of excellent quality even if the pricing was a little on the high side, the menu was varied, and the general ambience was very good.

We popped in on the advice of another restaurant that was fully booked, and we were more than happy with the food and service. Excellent food and wonderful service.

We ate here whilst staying in the Richmoor hotel on a short break. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere, with well placed lighting and great decor. The staff were welcoming and quickly shown us to our table by the window with a gorgeous view of Weymouth sea front. The menu is a simple menu but with a good combination of different dishes to choose from. I choose a main of dish of trout, which arrived on a bed of mash potato and broccoli. It was beautifully cooked and I throughly enjoyed it.When leaving we was told about the Sunday carvery which we will defiantly be returning for on our next visit to Weymouth. Most defiantly the best find of our holiday

Needed to find a new place for a Sunday carvery as our usual place had changed hands and was not good, after looking at lots of reviews decided to give Shelley's a try. 3 courses for £12.95 was very good value, home made soup, carvery with 4 meats and fresh veg ,cooked beautifully then fruit crumble for pudding. Couldn't fault the food and the staff were very friendly, will come again.

The food was excellent, the lamb was superb and the chicken just right. Excellent meal and nice surrounding. The waiter was very good

Absolutely a first class experience! Amazing food with excellent service! Good prices too! Loved it can't wait go back!

Went there the other night for the first time and was really impressed! Great service by very friendly, professional staff. The restaurant itself was was tastefully decorated and as well as been very tasty, the food was also great value for money - our party enjoyed the steak deal. A bonus was the nice views over the seafront. Definitely recommend!

This restaurant, situated in the basement of the Richmoor Hotel, is right on the Esplanade opposite the Pier Bandstand. There are loads of good quality restaurants in Weymouth and this ranks up with the best. We (5 adults) visited for the Sunday carvery and were a bit wary of being in a basement but the owners have done a lovely job in creating a bright, modern room with about 10 tables, 3 of which were set out for 6 people. Moving onto the food - we were presented with a choice of 4 joints of meat, not just the usual beef and pork. All the usual vegetables were available. Starters and desserts (priced extra) and a nice selection of wines complemented the meal which was a real treat.The restaurant wasn't busy which is a shame as it deserves to succeed.

My wife and I dined last Saturday evening and had the steak offer. Good value and tender steaks. The waiter, Jack, was really attentive even when two quite large groups of people came in for drinks. Thank you. Will be back when next in the area.

Visited here for a valentines day treat for my wife, service was friendly and professional , ,food was 1st class would defiantly recommend and use again a hidden jewel in Weymouth's many restaurant's

Our meal at shelleys was great, my daughter had previously dined at shelley's and recommended we visit, and we're glad we did. The food was faultless and our server Jack was very attentive and ensured we had a lovely evening. We're eagerly awaiting our next visit.

I have been here twice recently - in December for a Christmas party and again in January with a large group of friends. The food on both occasions was excellent. Food is arranged beautifully on the plate; they were ample, tasty portions served piping hot by attentive staff. What more could one ask.

Incredible food, and extremely polite and welcoming staff! Service was speedy, and had a delicious 3 course meal. Would definitely recommend for an enjoyably night out:)

Stumbled across Shelley's Restaurant through the Gourmet Society card. Staying on the other side of town, it was quite a bit out of our way, but was well worth the trip. Menu was small, but varied and food was beautiful. The service was spot on throughout the night, very attentive, on the ball and polite. Special thanks in particular to Jack who provided us with truly excellent service. This place really is a hidden gem, and we will certainly be returning!

The health department has placed it on a final warning. everything is from a local cash n carry, in a packet. NO FRESH PRODUCE. they use peanut and vegetable oil, have no info on allergens. I was asked to work here, had ALL of my tips taken by the owner.

We visited on a Sunday after winning a voucher at a raffle, the food was delicious and plentiful and the service was good. The prices were lower than most carveries in town (we took more people than were covered by the voucher) and the quality of the food was very good.

The food here is amazing and very reasonable. The restaurant is basic but clean and the waiting staff very courteous and helpful, polite etc.

The food was very tasty... My lamb steak was so tender.. The service was good and not rushed.. The restaurant had a nice relaxed feel to it.

Brilliant - good menu, food and service, can highly recommend the resturant. Pleasant surroundings will definetly re-visit as soon as possible.

The food and service was excellent we found the staff to be very helpful nothing was to much trouble for them

Loved the steak. Staff were lovely. Definately recommend to everyone.House wine was good too as was pudding

The food was lovely and the staff were friendly. There was lots to choose from. The restaurant was clean and tidy.

Just got back from a fantastic Sunday Carvery at Shelley's within the Richmoor Hotel. We have lived in Weymouth for many years and have had many Sunday carvery meals at various heating houses but this has been by far the best in terms of friendliness, cleanliness and food. The food was absolutely amazing. Our compliments to the Chef - who was also hands on - serving out the carvery. I know people say well, it's just a carvery but this was amazing (and I have to say especially the carrots). Also the service - second to none - Irish Em who iShelley's Restaurant but we certainly intend to visit again to sample more of their choices. Very kind Regards to all at Shelley's from Pat and Gren.

we ate in the restaurant after not being able to find anywhere near the centre that was free. nice 2 steaks and wine for £25 - very good value and surprisingly very nice! good service, however the actual room was very warm - could probably do with some fans or something! nice service for youngsters waiting on us! nice meal and good value.

Had the steak deal and they were really good with my daughter and offered her things not on menu. Great steaks. Great puddings. Thoroughly recommend

Not very impressed deal for two steaks good but very tough. Waitress very nice pity she had to be setting up for breakfast at 8oclock chairs and tables abit canteeny

The food at Shelley's was outstanding. Had the fillet steak which was cooked to perfection and melted in the mouth! Absolutely delicious!

We visited Shelley's at 6pm on a Sunday. Initial greeting was pleasant enough, it was not busy. There were about 4 tables occupied, not much of an atmosphere and the music was too loud, one customer complained about this. We chose to have the carvery and stood waiting for service, we were told they'd be along in a while, we waited several minutes more and were then told I'll go and get the chef to cut the meat ', we waited longer, he then said he'd go and get a knife. After about 10 minutes standing in front of the food, we decided to leave. It didn't look very appetising either, and the only vegetable was carrot.

Went on the Saturday evening best to book in advance, excellent price for 2 steaks and a bottle of wine Service was excellent nothing was to much trouble Food was very tasty and the steaks melted in your mouth. Only downfall was that you have to use the toilets upstairs in the hotel above and the staircase up to these facilities was well worn

Staff were lovely food was amazing only reason for the 4 rating is i found the chips were too chunky for my liking,

Easy access, from Esplanade. Clean and airy dining area. Excellent choice of food from home cooking to something a little more adventurous. GGood chef, knows what he is doing.

Was drawn to the special outside the restaurant 2 steaks and a bottle of wine £25. AMAZING! The best! HIGHLY recommend :)

Originally we weren't going to visit this restaurant having been put off by a few negative comments, but we popped our heads in to see what it was like, where we were greeted by lovely Emily, and instantly decided we would like to try it and make our own minds up. And we are SO glad we did! Jack was our waiter, he was helpful, kind and had a sense of humour. The food was excellent, I would strongly recommend the goats cheese salad starter and the Rump Steak with Horseradish mash also the chocolate fondant was insatiable! If I HAD to find fault I would suggest the music could be perhaps be something different to classical and a little louder as we could all hear each other talking on different tables, and perhaps a wine cooler would be nice.But honestly ignore any bad comments about food and service- they were lovely! I recommend you try it.

Emily and Becca gave superb attentive service and the portion size is large and beautifully presented. Recommend this restaurant

We were looking for somewhere to eat that wasn't the typical "British Seaside Food" and came across Shelley's Restaurant. We were a bit apprehensive at first as its in the basement of a guesthouse. We were greeted by a very friendly waitress who said we could sit where-ever we wanted. The menu looked to be quite limited but there is something for everyone, even fussy eaters like my Father. If you ask for a slight variation on a dish, its not a problem and your meal will arrive exactly how you wanted it.The food is absolutely delicious and there is a lot of it. I can not compliment the chef enough. None of us could find any fault with any of our courses. If you want a good tasty meal that's value for money then you need to eat here, you will not be disappointed. The staff are very attentive and are always smiling. My Mum wanted to cuddle our waitress as she thought she was so sweet!We had 3 starters, 3 mains, 3 desserts, 2 pints of beer, 1 bottle of Pinot Grigio, which all came to £101. Very reasonable. Well done Shelley's, you were the talk of our little trip to Weymouth!

the food was nice and the chef is very good, the staff are helpful but we didn't quite get the Fine Dining vibe from the restaurant.

We found the food at Shelley's acceptable, our starters were nice, the main meal again nice however the chips served were far too well cooked verging on burnt. Its clear alot of heart has gone into this place however the decor is cheap, tacky silk flowers, wall canvases that can be brought from Argos/ebay, the tables and chairs are like ones you'd see in a school/factory canteen (10 yrs ago). The staff are very friendly but the service is a little lapsidaisy. For these reasons I feel the food is over priced, it would be better aimed at the pub food market where the place belongs.
