Having been several times before, I was again not disappointed. Having something different each time. The Tapas starters were lovely and we shared around the table all loving the selections - all cooked to perfection and very tasty. Coconut prawns, Squid and butterfly prawns. All delicious. My main of Sea trout was lovely and I would definitely have it again. Too full for puddings, so enjoyed expresso martinis instead. We will be back - soon. Sorry no photo's - I like to enjoy my food while it's hot!

Had family down for a visit. Everyone's food was 10/10. So we were delighted. There was 5 of us and sometimes its hard to please everyone. But everyone loved it.

Friendly, relaxed atmosphere and good service. My friend and I were impressed with the quality of food and an interesting wine menu. We had the Prix Fixe, but I have eaten the Bus Pass Menu previously which, whilst the portions were modest, is amazing value for money. I hope to return to try the A La Carte.

We were a group of 6 friends looking for a new place to enjoy the seafood we all love. Sobo:fish is a real gem, serving only the freshest seafood in a lovely small family restaurant. The service was impeccable, the food matched and everything was just lovely. And best of all, it’s about half price of what one would expect to pay in Rich Steins or the Noisy Lobster. Well done Sobo:Fish

Last Saturday , this was a last minute booking for myself and my daughter, who was visiting overnight from Surrey. I have been to this restaurant a few times but it was her first time. The food was excellent, as usual, with us choosing oysters to start, the best I have had for a very long time. The main courses were very tasty, fresh and hot. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Any requests were accommodated without question. Having booked for 7.30 we didn’t leave until after 10 o’clock allowing us to sit and chat without being hassled.

Very good time here on Saturday. Everything was good. Service is always good. Meals are well prepared and the nice thing is there’s always a £15 menu along with the more expensive choices.

We travelled from Southampton in the train specifically to try this restaurant and tha adjoining wine bar. Both were well worth the trip! Starting with a warm and friendly welcome in the wine bar I tried the recommended Japanese White ale and my wife a chardonnay, absolutely great recommendations. Moving to the restaurant we sat in one of the outdoor booths and again had lovely and friendly service. Food was fresh, well presented and tasty absolutely delicious. So much so we even went to our local fishmonger the next day to try cooking the same fish ourselves. Great ambiance and great food. I would highly recommend this restaurant, I wish it was closer to us so I go again.

On holiday in the area, was looking for a fish restaurant and found SoBo on line so didn’t know what to expect. We were not disappointed, in fact we were very impressed, wide menu, hard to choose and very well cooked, super staff, great ambience, reasonably priced. Shame we live so far away or we would be regulars

My girlfriend and I went to SoBo Fish on Sat 9th for our evening meal. At first the service was great and the restaurant was very clean, modern, etc. When our drinks came out my beer was luke-warm & my girlfriend’s ‘Seabreeze’ cocktail was heavily watered down displaying no taste of alcohol. Unfortunately our food wasn’t much better either. Mediocre warm and no flavour… Sobo overall has a great reputation around Southbourne but unfortunately we won’t be visiting the restaurant again.

We had a wonderful Sunday meal at sobo fish restaurant, we both chose Sunday roast, Duck, it came with a lovely selection of vegetables, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal, would highly recommend it, we found although it’s a fish restaurant, they do have a non fish menu, which it great, the food was fantastic, definately be back. Also the service was very good.

Sunday lunch at a fish restaurant?! I thought why not - I love this restaurant but honestly wasn’t sure about a Sunday roast at a fish restaurant because….. well you’d normally go to a pub, wouldn’t you? I was sooo pleasantly surprised I had the fish Wellington and my wife had the duck, it was simply perfect along with the gravlax and prawns to start and ended with ice cream and a lemon dessert. A couple of Chenin Blancs all meant that we had a full (filling) three courses and drinks for less than a hundred quid!!!!! There is no better value in town!

The food was excellent and the service was really friendly. We are a family of 5 and keeping 3 teenagers happy is always a challenge. The table of empty plates at the end of the meal was the sign that we made the right choice for our Sunday lunch! I would highly recommend a visit.

I've been to this restaurant 4 times in the last 12 months and it's just special (I last reviewed in April 2023) . We meet once a month for fish & chips at a local restaurant or pub, and members keep asking me when are we going back to SOBO. I'm going again at the end of February with my golfing mates and their wives. There are a few indomitable diners who perhaps don't appreciate the effort that is put into providing good food and hospitality, and who sneak out without saying anything then moan on TA. If it's constructive nobody minds but...........on Friday & Saturday lunchtimes 2 courses for £15 or 3 for £20 is just the BEST value I know. I have no connection whatsoever with the restaurant and am just a satisfied customer. Keep up the good work.

We often go to Sobo Fish but when they started advertising Sunday Roast we were a little sceptical as to how it would work with Fish. We tried it today and it was AMAZING. We both had the Fish Wellington and it was so so good. The food is always so good here and the staff so friendly. Very reasonably priced too. We love this place and totally recommend

Booked a lunch out with friends. Have to say that the food and service was great however due to covid one friend couldn't make it last minute. On paying the bill, his £5 deposit was not refunded. This left a bad taste in our mouths. The restaurant was not busy and it does not state on their website that if your table shows up but there is one less than booked that you forfeit that persons deposit! We spent a lot of money and enjoyed our meals so felt this was totally unnecessary as they had plenty of spare tables for walkins.

The £20 set lunch menu is good value and we were all happy with the food. I had reserved a table of 4 for my sons but bday paying £20 deposit online. My husband had been unwell and taken himself to hospital that morning but because of the deposit we decided the 3 of us would still go to lunch as it was not suitable to rebook for another time which is the only option within 48 hours. When it came to paying the bill only £15 was refunded from my deposit not £20 which I had prepaid. I questioned this and was told that is what the waitress had been told to do, this policy is not on the website terms and conditions! There were empty tables so it wasn’t like we were taking a place they could have sold. I thought this was extremely unfair due to the circumstances and because of this we will not be returning. Plenty of other places to eat who don’t take your money for no reason.

The food was pleasant but on balance it was expensive with not a lot to eat. It was a Seafood Special evening and I think they could have done better. The half a lobster was dry and chewy and had no doubt been kept hot for quite a long time.

Food was poor, chips (fries) oil needed changing and left a bad taste. My main issue was the very rude woman serving at the grill and her attitude when I asked if there were toilets. She was so rude and said public toilets only. I didn't have a problem with that but asked where they were and she again rudely said 15 meters that way or that way. As no facilities are provided by the Beach House, I dont think its too much to expect to be told where the nearest toilets are - and if it is too much bother then put up a sign. Will not return. High prices and poor food.

First visit and in short would never go back and definitely would not recommend. Incredibly slow service and poorly managed with not enough staff. Food ok although Sushi was all covered in sauce which spoilt it Detail: After 40 minute wait we chased up our drinks and the fact we still hadn’t been asked for a food order. Appeared to be 1 person on the bar in the restaurant but couldn’t make any drinks instead transferring the order to the 1812 bar next door with long delays. Around 20 mins wait second order of drinks when there were zero other customers in the restaurant and not many in the main bar and first round had been dry for a while. Didn’t bother with anymore. Came across as same bar guy making up the sushi whilst 1 chef doing hot food. That was another 40-60 min wait for food after the drinks wait. Very poorly organised and not fair on the skeleton shift of staff that were there. No expectations set on wait time. Menu looked good with loads of things I’d have liked to eat and tapas options like the bao buns were nice, calamari and Korean chicken also good but very salty. Sushi we went for the platter which was £30 a head and smothered in sauce which actually borderline ruined it - every single sushi piece on the platter has sauce and made it heavy. Should have been maybe one row max. Optional extra sauce on side. So bad would have to say on service to avoid altogether.
