Slice in Swansea

A fantastic dining experience. The food, service and wine was faultless

The food was exceptional. Everything on the menu except one dish was either gluten free or could be made gluten free I could the perfectly cooked pigeon wellington. The fish and meat were cooked perfectly and the staff so friendly. Will definitely stop by again sometime when I’m in Swansea.

Superb food and fantastic service. The apple and rice souffle was outstanding! It was lovely to be greeted by the chef and was made to feel welcome thoughout. What an amazing small business which deserves to do well.

Where is Slice’s Michelin star? My fiancé took us here for our engagement dinner in August. We’ve been to plenty one, two and three Michelin starred places, Slice is definitely competes with some of the best. Dishes were cooked perfectly, delicate tastes and well thought out dishes. The paired wine were great too. Lindsey was warm and friendly which added to the overall amazing experience. Whenever I’m in Swansea, I’ll definitely come again, da iawn!

Slice is simply fantastic! I thoroughly enjoyed my visit the other night. The restaurant is situated upstairs in a quirky building, accessible up a set of stairs. The staff are friendly and very easy to chat to, and service is professional. The food is of another world - every single course of the tasting menu was both delicate and unique. Would highly recommend the wine we chose as well (see picture), though paired wines are also an option! For anyone on the fence about visiting, please go and support this fantastic establishment. They are worth many visits!!

Oh what a night as the song goes! The food was sensational. Steak cooked to perfection. Service was wonderful. Great interaction with the staff and excellent customer service. Expensive but you get what you pay for and it was certainly an amazing experience. Highly recommended 5 stars

My wife and I had the tasting menu. The combination of flavours were outstanding with beautiful presentation. The wine flight was very reasonably priced and perfectly matched the food. We'll be back!

We had been wanting to try Slice for a number of years but given the limited number of tables and popularity it had proved difficult in the past. However, the wait was worth it. There are not many restaurants in the same class as Slice in Swansea. Food-wise, I would personally put Slice in the same class as the Beach House which has one Michelin star. Of course the Beach House has the benefit of location which adds to the experience but then Oxwich is difficult to get to unless you are staying overnight or driving. Slice is very easily accessible given it is located in the centre of Sketty. Slice has a very intimate feel. On entering the main entrance we were welcomed personally by the chef. I think there are only 2 chef's on during dinner service and a single waitress/maitre d'. The maitre d' is extremely hard working and friendly and even though they are only a limited number of covers per evening she was not still for a second. Our table had the tasting menu and it was very well considered and put together and the food was great. If I were to be very picky I would say that more time could have been taken to explain each course (e.g. where some of the ingredients came from) and it would have been helpful to leave a copy of the menu on the table to diners could be reminded what they were eating. But as I said, that would be nit picking. The maitre d' mentioned that the tasting menu changed every 7 weeks so it will be exciting to come back and sample something new. If you want "fine dining" style food, easily accessible by public transport then I don't think there is anywhere better in Swansea than Slice. It is not cheap and can't be to maintain the standard and quality of ingredients but I would highly recommend visiting to experience something special.

We were entertained to dinner at "Slice" on a recent visit to friends living in Mumbles. On previous visits it had not proved possible to secure a table. Now having enjoyed the hospitality on offer at this small friendly neighbourhood restaurant we can see why tables are booked up months ahead. Both service and food are outstanding. Try for a table and if at first you do not succeed ...........!

Such an amazing experience. The food was absolutely stunning, with every tiny element thought through. They were so accommodating with our dietary requirements, not just taking things off the plate but adding individual elements to make sure nobody missed out - including making a whole different dessert! Make sure you bring cash for a tip as they can't accept a tip on card - and trust me, you'll want to tip!

We have eaten extensively around the world and I’m of the opinion the wonderful food here is right up there with the 3 star Michelin big boys. Been coming here for about 9 years now and never had a bad meal but last night every plate went back to the kitchen with finger swipes on it. This chef is on the money in terms of putting a menu together using what’s good seasonal with touches of luxury making the diner feel truly spoilt. Course after delicious course arrived. Bread that was as light as baby’s breath butters with a twist a red hot amuse bouche told of treasures to come . A crab dish fresh zingy and delicious . Sea bass with cauliflower…. Despite years of trying to get my husband to eat fish skin with miserable failure he scoffed the lot and had to be stopped from putting his face in the bowl . Fingers went in but so were mine years of rebuke from parents teaching manners out the window not a drop of that sauce was going back to the kitchen . Delights of the pig next words fail me to describe this dish simply wonderful then lamb in pastry I’m a northern girl anything in pastry is a pie this was pie perfection … ok I’m teasing it was lamb wellington so good I’ve plans for a couple of lamb loins back home in the freezer. In for a penny in for the cheese course not included but worth it 3 cheeses 2 superb not keen on the hard one but a chef whose practically perfect in every way has nowhere to go so there’s my less than perfect mouthful lovely cheese not to my taste. On to pud strawberries well it just has to be and followed by a truly decadent choc pud we hoovered up . Suitably full with well priced wines that washed it down a super port and actually inspired red lambrussco to finish . It’s such a small intimate place I don’t want people to know about it as we often struggle to get a table but I can’t keep this to myself . People of Swansea you have a genuine culinary wizard working away in the smallest kitchen / restaurant producing amazing meals at very fair prices. Michelin standard without a doubt and ive had enough to know. Now not to forget the fabulous Lindsay who runs front of house alone with charm efficiency and a beautiful style . As happy to chat about dinosaur parks as the provenance of the veg. She runs and talks at a million miles an hour . She has something you can’t teach a truly wonderful way with all her customers . You honestly feel you have popped into your mates and she’s feeding you. Totally unstuffy totally a people person . Dining out this is as good as it gets for me . Can’t wait to return

Our second visit this year and, once again, an amazing meal! So much to say about the food here but, I wish they would open a bread shop just selling their wonderful breads, and butters! A good 'tight' menu which, I think, is good value for money.

Warm, welcoming, lovely service and fabulous food!

Fine dining at its culinary best, using the best local ingredients! The creative skills in the kitchen produced works of art 🎨 👌 🙌 on our plates, served by the best waitress! It was definitely worth travelling from Oz to enjoy!

We definitely don’t go here enough!! The food is delicious, the staff are amazing and the wine flight is so well thought out!! If you haven’t tried it you must treat yourselves x

Food was terrible, specially for the amount you are paying. The servers are so rude and think they high and mighty. And when looking into the kitchen there were cockroachers. Well definitely not recommend at all!!!

Our favourite restaurant. Food that exceed expectations. Friendly and attentive. Another visit for warm greetings and more exceptional food.

Lovely little restaurant, very friendly staff and excellent food.

This may just be the best dining experience I have had in a long time, offering both great food to the service. This small restaurant is just a hidden gem, tucked away in the back street of Sketty. As soon as we entered the building, we were greeted by the chefs. Which was such a pleasure, which made us feel very welcome and set the evening up nicely. Service was impeccable, with 1 really friendly hostess who knew everything about the dishes and really looked after us throughout the night, and as the restaurant only has 5 to 6 tables, the need for another waitress is redundant and would take away from the experience the 1 hostess brings. It took us about 2.5 hours for the 6 course taster menu and honestly it was nice not to feel rushed for once in a restaurant, as I feel lately most restaurants just want you out as soon as you sit down ... I have seen some reviews saying 2.5 hours is a long time, however I think it is the perfect amount of time for an evening meal, no matter how many courses ... and when the food being served is so technical and not packeted portions like other popular and favoured restaurants around, waiting a little longer is really not something you should be moaning about. On a more merry note, the food was well presented and simply tasted out of this world with so many different textures and flavours. You could see how much passion and effort has been put into each dish and can easily see why this restaurant has achieved a Michelin Star! Lastly, we have to mention the price and ask the question: Is it worth it? ... Oh yes, most definitely, and I know for a fact I will be returning. Thank you Slice for such a lovely evening!

Most delicious food in Swansea.

The sort of place you want to tell everyone about, but don’t want anyone to know, so that you can still get a table. Superb restaurant that isn’t in any way pretentious. From the chefs’ welcome on arrival to the final mouthful, you can’t fault the service or the food. The ingredients are top quality, seasonal and the dishes imaginative. Wine pairing is an excellent option and then available from the local wine merchant. Can’t recommend enough. But don’t tell anyone. ;)

Amazing dining experience in South Wales! Been meaning to come here for years but after seeing this specific menu knew it was the time to go! Scallops, venison, pork, monkfish and chocolate what more could you want! Also did the wine pairing and lots of knowledge included Perfectly filling and lovely will definitely go again Lovely staff too!

Great food great service. Keeping its standard high.

Very welcoming with a superb tasting menu where every plate was sent back empty and great service with a smile

For me, Slice is the best restaurant in this part of Wales This was my third time at Slice and it was amazing as always. The tasting menu was incredible - the highlights were the cod with langoustines, barbequed beef and the chocolate marquise! The wine pairing and the service were excellent too - thank you so much! A small note: the dining room tends to get quite loud and it would really benefit from some acoustic panels.

The food was superb, excellent - so was the service. However the restaurant itself is so small and full of hard surfaces (no carpet or wall coverings or tablecloths ) that when you are unfortunate enought to be seated next to a party of 6 disrespectful, raucous 30+ somethings with 3 non stop cackling females, your whole evening is ruined and you leave early with a headache. Eventually the restaurant manager had a word with them, but by then too late, the magic was spoiled. We left pleased with the food, but unhappy with the experience. Not the restaurant's fault you say, but the restaurant owns the space.

Small restaurant. Big flavour. Tasting menu is a must!

6 course tasting menu was a proper meal. Plenty to eat but full of class. Brilliant flavours. Star dishes were beef main and rice pudding souffle.

Amazing evening at Slice. Wonderful greeting by all. Food was delicious with the crab panna cotta being genius!! Husband had duck starter also great. Lamb and pork for main courses. Strawberry dessert. Great team at Slice. Precision cooking. Wish we lived nearer. Thanks to all

Amazing food and service. A must visit for everyone

We came for our anniversary, food was amazing 10/10! The service was beautiful, and it’s really worth every penny.

Wow. Outstanding meal with excellent service. We had the tasting menu and accompanying wines and thoroughly enjoyed every sublime mouthful. Beautifully paced service where you are left in no doubt that you are in good, experienced hands.

Slice is like a proper bistro - nothing pretentious with all the emphasis on the (amazing) food. Adam was great at front of house - as he’s also responsible for the food he was enthusiastic and gave great explanations about the food. It was a memorable night and we’ll be back soon. Price for the tasting menu was exceptional value - on a par with Michelin places we have eaten at for half the price. For the first time in ages I didn’t take pictures as I was too. Busy enjoying the meal - highly recommended 🤩

This is properly good dining. Each component is delicious and has been thought about seriously. Friendly and unstuffy service. Good value bearing in mind the quality. Room is small and we found it a little noisy when full, just needs a tweak with sound sound adsorbing wall covering.

Amazing little restaurant. Great food, super friendly environment and just a wonderful experience

Our favourite restaurant. Adam, Chris and Lyndsey treat us like friends. Oh ... and the food is quite wonderful which is a bonus!

The food NEVER disappoints and the staff are so hard working and friendly. I chose veal as my main dish that was perfectly cooked and the jus was amazing.

Our evening was magical. The service was so warm and friendly. The food was delicious and something we will never forget. The chefs went above and beyond with the one weird food request I had. A wonderful place.

A great night out with exceptional food. the waitress was charming and very fit running up and down stairs from the kitchen to the dining room. The two chefs greeted us on arrival and popped out to say goodbye. Thoroughly recommend for a special occasion

Visited for the first time this week, oh my gosh, the best food we have eaten in years. Service impeccable and so friendly. The flavours were wonderful. Food was outstanding. Can’t wait to return.

A flawless diamond in the rough! Slice is so affordable with such imaginative and DELICIOUS dishes, with a cosy dining area, and the waitress so friendly and knowledgeable. I sometimes wish they could relocate to a larger premises, making the most of the beautiful views of Swansea, but I guess they would risk impacting on the quality of the food and service and of course the price. Every single morsel of food for my Mum and I's lunch yesterday was perfectly executed. 2 tasting menu's, a bottle of wine, coffee and petit fours came to just £166. A huge difference to being absolutely rinsed of nearly £400 at The Hand and flowers a few months back for way less food and way less quality. (Grrrrr. That still gripes me) Keep up the incredible work, Slice!! We.will.be.back!!

Visited for the first time today for lunch. Absolutely fantastic. The food was amazing and so full of flavour. All four of us in awe of the flavours and textures in the food. We will be back very soon!!

Wonderful meal fantastic service

It's a very small restaurant with 5 or 6 tables. Very, very slow service: 2.5 hours for 3 courses menu. It takes not less than 30 min between dishes. They offer fixed menu or tasting menu. There isn't any a la carte. The food is good mostly for the" UK standards ", however for the paid price portions are small. The jerusalem artichokes are OK but the egg is a fail; no flavour, no running egg. The white of the egg was clogged. Hake was the best part. Rum baba also good.

This really is fun fine dining in informal setting. Great flavours, imaginative cuisine, friendly helpful staff in cosy surroundings. Need to plan ahead as always seem to be fully booked at short notice.

Great food and service we may have been a bigger group than the normal. If you want intimate check the other reservations xx

Third visit and just gets better! Tasting menu with wine pairing. From arrival to leaving you can’t fault anything. Food is a level above anything! Bread is like nothing I have ever had. If the bread is that good you can imagine how good everything else is. We had two dairy intolerant with us and their meals were a triumph. Their desserts amazing. Recommend the wine pairings. Really worked with every course. Clearly well thought of and tested. The lady looking after the front of house has the perfect service. So friendly and proud of the food. Recommend she does more frequent wine tasting 😉 Planning our next return asap!

Amazing food! Well worth a visit

The food and service here are never less than perfect! From the friendly greeting on arival to the chefs checking we enjoyed as we were leaving. We had the taster menu as we couldn't resist tasting all the available options. Every course was amazing, the combinations of textures and flavours in each dish were a revelation, and I can't wait to return!

Only been here once previously (last year) but chose to come for my birthday with my wife and mother having remembered it was a bit special then. We all had the taster menu which was just superb - the care with which the food was prepared, cooked and presented really stood out and the flavours in each dish just worked perfectly together - we all agreed in a dinner of highlights that the guinea fowl was the star. Great service and wine too - cannot recommend a Pugh and so glad to have somewhere so special within walking distance of our house.

First visit for a birthday celebration. Opted for the taster menu and so glad we did. Every course was excellent, too difficult to choose a favourite. We also chose the "wine flight", again a wise choice. The waitress was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. At...

Best food in Swansea, try the taster menu

Thank you for a wonderful evening for my son's 16th birthday. A warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Food was incredible. Highly recommended. We will be back very soon :)

Such an amazing little restaurant. Can't fault anything! Amazing food and incredible service. Can't wait for my next visit 😃

We’ve visited many times and have always been impressed by the friendly service and top notch skills of the chefs. If you like expertly cooked food - we throughly recommend it

Absolutely stunning! Hands down the best food we have had across the whole of the UK. Lovely intimate but non-fussy setting made the atmosphere comfortable and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. We cannot wait to come back!

The food was stunning, the staff were very friendly. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere and the waitress explained what we were eating perfectly. Would high recommend the tasting menu.

I didn't take any photos of my food but I went for a 3 course meal at lunch to celebrate my anniversary with my partner and Slice did not disappoint. It's a small restaurant but I assume this is what allows them to deliver such a high standard, the food and service was impeccable. It was the perfect experience from start to finish and the best food I've had at a restaurant in a very long time. If you're reading this umming and arring if to go. Please call up and book a table, you don't need to take my word for it but this place is a solid 10/10 🌟 You will feel like royalty!

Michelin quality meal in the village of Sketty! Slice was a very pleasant surprise for my wife and I celebrating her birthday tonight. An interesting and tasty menu full of flavorful surprises. Their three course meal had some innovative and delicious choices. The haddock was moist and flavorful. My chocolate mousse was to die for. Great wine pairings and service. Thanks for a memorable evening.

Best food in Swansea. The current tasting menu is excellent. Pinot gris was a brilliant wine and the tempranillo was also superb. Great service with good explanation of the various courses. Also amuse bouche and fresh bread starter included.

We were lucky enough to get a table for four of us for lunch on the first Sunday after their Christmas break. This was our first visit and it had been recommended to us by the owners of our Air BnB place. We are all...

Absolutely the best meal I've had for twenty years. Fantastic service, imaginative menu... Absolutely stunning. 👌

I’ve been to slice a few times over the last few years and every time it blows me away. I have never been disappointed and neither have the people I’ve been with. The food is simply spectacular, the service is warm, helpful and kind and I love the cosy vibes of the restaurant. 1000/10 recommend.

This was our first time visiting Slice since it was taken over by the new owners. The service and food was impeccable. Could not fault a single thing. We will be back for the tasting menu!

OMG! What can I say about this AMAZING little place. Nothing that will go anywhere close to doing it justice. You just HAVE to go and try it for yourself

We have wanted to try Sice for a while and as we live out of the area and only visit when seeing our daughter at Uni we had to coordibate well in advance. It was well worth the planning is all I can say and...

Absolutely fabulous meal best food we've eaten for years. Arrived for our meal and greated warmly by the chef and owner downstairs, waitress very friendly, engaging and informative about the menu. Food was spectacular, from presentation to taste definitely one of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at. Book in advance as Slice gets booked up fully, we've been looking to visit for sometime and definitely it lived up to our expectations. Well done Slice and thank you for a really nice evening 😀

Without a doubt the best meal we’ve had in years! Every course was perfect and complimented the previous one and sets you up for the next one. We had the tasting menu and we weren’t disappointed. Cannot recommend the restaurant enough. Intimate, amazing service and the best quality ingredients and menu. Surely a star is deserved!

We enjoyed the Taster Menu. Superb food sound advice on wine. A great atmosphere what more could you ask. Great people thank you for a lovely time.

What a great experience! When you walk in you're warmly greeted by the two chefs who are also the owners. I went for the 3 course meal with 5 people. The staff are very friendly. So for the food. When you arrive there are two types of butter presented to you. And when you've ordered they will bring you freshly baked bread which smells amazing! It's a nice appetiser. For the amuse-bouche we were given Rabbit pasty with a cauliflower dish. They paired very well together. The cauliflower thing helped to fight the gamey taste of the rabbit. For starters I had the Scallops with chicken wings and texture of salsify. Scallops were Cooked beautifully, they weren't rubbery and tasted great. The chicken wing they gave helped to balance the seafood taste and was very soft. To complete the dish the salsify is needed to bring the different textures form the soft parts to the crunchy roasted ones. Amazing The main I had was the poussin and my goodness it was moist, juicy, tender and full of flavour! The barley and sauce were great with it. This was definitely the highlight For dessert the soufle was nicely risen, it was soft and sweet and just enough to satisfy. My only complaint is that I wish I had more ice cream. Overall a great dining experience that I would love to come visit for different menus. Other food that I got to try was the braised cheek and filet steak which were all nice and tender.

Honestly I couldn't take any photos to show you cause it was just one of those things where you just have to witness it in person. A solid 10/10, super friendly guys running the place, the food is something out of a film, extraordinary in every way. They somehow manage to blend flavours together that you would never think of trying and they do it to perfection! My starter for example was crab/avacado and watermelon. Absolutely crazy but probably the best fine dining experience I've had so far. Couldn't rate this place high enough so if you manage to stumble across this place, don't even think twice and get stuck in. Beautiful.

Stunning food every time we go. Slice is a must when in Swansea Definitely will be back

Where to start! The service was fantastic. The food was phenomenal! I can't wait to go back. An absolute gem of a place.

We had a fantastic meal, every course was delicious. Service was excellent. We will definitely be back.

From the moment we were greeted at the door by the chef to our departure 3 hours and 7 courses later, we had the most fabulous experience. The food was beautiful, clever and delicious, paired perfectly with often surprising wine choices, presented by such welcoming and friendly staff. Book early and visit often!

Absolutely wonderful food with a great host who didn't stop throughout and who was very welcoming. A must visit for anyone in Swansea and beyond.

Unfortunately I felt unwell the day we visited and had gone anyway, hoping that it would be ok as it was a birthday treat for my partner. The food and service was amazing, and when I had a funny turn during the main course they...

From start to finish food was outstanding. We have had many Michelin/fine dining experiences and this is up there with the best of them!! The room was not all that warm so hopefully is heated in winter but this is a minor grumble. Service was...

Not a lot really so I would simply say it was an extremely enjoyable experience. Excellent food and very friendly staff. And our usual measure of our enjoyment…would we return? Most definitely!

Second visit to this restaurant. We have had the tasting menu on both occasions. We literally cannot fault anything. Food is amazing. Service is amazing. They even went to the trouble of getting us a taxi at the end of our meal (which was not...

Just lovely. Well worth a visit on a special evening. The taster menu with paired wines is a must!!

Best restaurant food in Swansea, my favourite restIrant

Visited with friends on a busy Saturday evening. The food was just first class as was the service! This restaurant is as good as any other fine dining restaurant that we have visited, either in the Swansea or Pembrokeshire area or in Cardiff. That says...

Outstanding as always!! Gets better every time we visit! Amazing food,amazing atmosphere Amazing trio (Adam, Chris and Lyndsey)

Amazing food and great service. Worth the wait for a table.

Absolutely perfect, to an amazing waitress and courteous chef’s!! What a perfect date night xx thank you for making it an amazing experience again!! Taster menu with wine pairing xx was perfect

Excellent service, food and drinks. Lovely friendly staff, never fails to impress. Menu changed regularly.

Had trouble booking in for a Thursday night 3 weeks in advance which is always a good sign. We arrived early but were well received and greeted. Service was friendly attentive but not to pushy. The taster menu was brilliant. Only slight point for the...

Really great food and wine pairing

We came for the taster menu on the 26th of February. Absolutely amazing, there are no words to describe the flavours we experienced. Each plate of food was delicious, piping hot and extremely well presented. We were welcomed with smiles from the Chefs and waitress. Lovely time Angela and Hel

We have been wanting to visit this restaurant for a while now and finally made it today. Service was excellent very friendly and chatty. The food was sublime with every course totally delicious. We will definitely be returning soon.

Food was outstanding as usual our 4th visit here.Everything was perfect and the hostess as usual amazing, friendly and helpful. Everything was perfect.

We had a fantastic welcome from all of the staff at slice. The two of us had the tasting menu which was absolutely superb. Each course was as delightful as the last. Thank you all for a fantastic time.

Went for the tasting menu, absolutely superb. High quality produce, sublimely cooked and excellently presented.

Booked for 13th Feb for Valentine’s for my wife and I. Although we live locally this is the first time we’ve actually managed to get a table so we had high expectations. I’m glad to say they were exceeded. We ate from the thoughtfully assembled...

Was taken as a belated birthday treat, and what a treat. Absolutely fantastic. Will definitely be returning, but I might smuggle a tea-spoon in so I don't miss any of the sauces!

A firm and regular favourite treat but tonight was a smorgasbord of culinary wizardry! I genuinely had the best starter ever which comprised of textures of Jerusalem Artichoke; roasted, pureèd, crisped and pickled and coupled with scrumptious, perfectly cooked quails eggs garnished with truffle. Totally...

Dinner this evening to celebrate 3 couples 40th wedding anniversary. Fabulous time. Food exceptional. Service good. Great atmosphere.
