The Greedy Seagull in Weymouth and Portland - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fantastic evening food was amazing and waitress eliza was superb a very amusing lady and looked after us so well a must go to restaurant food was delicious 😋

Lovely little restaurant near the harbour. You will definitely need to book a table as they're always full!

Lovely inside, and the service was impeccable! Me and my partner both ordered the mussels and they came in a huge frying pan! Absolutely delicious! And the octopus special for starter was beautiful as well! Very pleased we gave it a go

Service was very slow, waited over an hour for our order! ( we had children with us!!) Why did we wait? Food was ok but over priced for an hour wait. We will not be returning.

Tonight we decided to try something different, and we are so glad we did! Lovely food, great service. Would highly recommend, we will definitely be coming back!

Superb food and service. Very well recommended. I had the tiger prawns and the steak. 🥩 was fabulous. Then opted for the Lemon tart. 😘

Super family meal for my husband’s 70th Food was exquisite, compliments to the chef Paella burgers lamb all home-cooked and delicious and complimentary ice cream for our granddaughter and for my husband with candle! Highly recommended thankyou 🙏👍

The food here is magic ! This is a really wonderful, unique find. A mixture of tasty food with such a nice variety. We had elderly people and kids and this place catered for all. What a place. Owner was kind and really knowledgeable. This is an old fashion, family run, delight !

My wife and I visited here on a Friday evening. It's a bit of a back street just off the harbour but what a find it was. Not particularly busy, just a few other tables but a great atmosphere with walls having a quirky cartoon seagull mural. The "staff" that evening seemed to be just the owner who was front of house and his wife who was the chef. With that in mind - if you're expecting fast slick service you might be disappointed (this is quality, freshly cooked food) but if you want a relaxed evening where the food is the centre of attention you will be glad you found this place. Our starters (pan seared scallops and tiger prawns) were excellent, as were the main courses (lamb Kleftiko and grilled lamb cutlets). I'd ordered a side order of hand cut chips which the manager gave me the chance to cancel when he delivered the main courses to the table as the portions were so generous ! We saw some of the other food going to other tables and it all looked top notch. A couple of other tables had the paella, which I'm not a fan of but it did look nice - loads of seafood sticking out of it - and the recipients were full of praise for it. Chef came out of the kitchen later to ask how we'd found the food - it was wholesome, tasty and delicious. Very intimate setting which is likely to get very busy at peak times so I would suggest booking. There's no draught beer but I wouldn't expect it in such a small restaurant. This will become a foodies destination when word gets around, I hope they've got room for us next time we visit Weymouth.

Fantastic family run restaurant, great paellas, steaks, calamari. Good selection of wines and beers. Friendly owners, can't do enough for you. Dog friendly also

What an absolute gem of a restaurant! We loved it so much we went back again for a second night running and equally as good as each other! T-bone Steak, Paella, Mixed Grill and great choice of wines! Clear to see these guys out their heart and Souls into running this place and can’t wait to go back again!

The poor waitress who was learning English messed up our orders. The owner who was very insulting towards her came over and explained this and expected us to eat the random tasteless dishes they brought over instead of what we asked for! The fish starters were frozen rubber, the lamb kleftiko had no flavour except cinnamon, my partners burger was completely raw which may be fine for a steak but dangerous with mincemeat. Overall, we were charged for dishes we did not order that were horrid. Do not recommend and I hope that waitress escapes to somewhere that treats her better.

We found the Greedy Seagull last year so thought we would try it again and it was as good as we remembered Excellent food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere Highly recommend

Fabulous restaurant run by great husband and wife team. Relaxed atmosphere, very fresh food cooked to order, very warm welcome. Don't miss it!

Fabulous little restaurant, and steaks huge!

Called in on the off chance and managed to get a table even though they were very busy, the lady who served us was lovely and the food was excellent and reasonably priced, will definitely be back.

Stopped in on the off chance of a table for 2 without a booking and was welcomed warmly and accommodated. A nice intimate restaurant where you are made to feel at home and relaxed by the owners. Front of house was impeccable and what came from the kitchen was home made a delicious. A real treat. Thank you so much. We will be back.

This restaurant is quite something for all the right reasons. It combines, excellent food and reasonable prices, served in a friendly way with a great atmosphere. This is worth the trip even if you are not staying in Weymouth. One of the best overall dining experiences that I have had in over 40 years of travel, It is a must if your like Mediterranean food

Had a lovely evening meal for my wife and myself, we both had the Paella dish which was lovely but a bit more variety with the seafood would have been perfect. Overall a lovely evening with great atmosphere.

Small venue but very good food definition no microwave pub meal food served here! Only a handful of tables and it gets busy so probably worth booking.

Great evening out on Friday for our anniversary. Very generous portions and meals cooked to perfection. Lovely cosy space and very much looking forward to going back

What a lovely tucked away special place. Fabulous seafood paella. Very friendly staff and great service. I will always make time to eat here when in Weymouth

Lovely meal, starter of calamari was a little chewy but the main course made up for that. Special board chicken and chorizo paella was delicious. The Lamb Kleftico was so tender and huge portion. All in all a good experience, so nice to go somewhere with such a range on the menu.

Lovely paella and excellent service. Lovely owners

We came for a group dinner and I loved the place. The walls have great drawings on them, the staff were really lovely and the food/wine was great.

Completely taken aback by the sheer quality of the steak, the best I have had in years. I could order another right now. Calimari was well cooked and lightly spiced, and everything on the menu seemed to be realistically priced. Not cheap, but you're not getting this quality for cheap, and not expensive, either. Good portion sizes, unobtrusive music, lovely staff, make this a must for anyone looking for an independent restaurant serving good freshly cooked food. If I had to find a negative, the salad was a bit unimaginative, but it's sat there beside a big juicy steak, so... :)

Great customer service and lovely staff. Great food

As a large group of 15 people we had pre-ordered our main courses for dinner. However, having arrived at 8pm, we were served our main courses at 9:45pm. We also asked if we could order some starters on the day and they advised this would cause a delay- we said we didn't mind but asked for the food to come out as it was ready. We only received 3 starter courses (despite having ordered quite a few more) which also arrived late more than an hour and a half after ordering. The chef came to speak to us at 9pm to say that some of our party had gone to ask the waitresses when our food would be arriving (we had been waiting more than an hour and a half at this point) to which the chef bluntly told us she would not tolerate 'rude behaviour'. She later told us this had been a mistake and someone had confused us for another table. At the end, the bill was not calculated properly as they had no idea which starters they had delivered, and they had not correctly removed the deposit we had already paid. The food was good, and the waitress that served us was great, but we were appointed with the overall 2 hour delay for food despite pre ordering and the bad experience from the chef.

Lovely meal at the Greedy Seagull. We had the mixed platter and tagine (vegan), both lovely and good size portions. Some other vegan items on the menu. Attentive and prompt service. Will come again

Great place! Service was excellent as was the food. Definitely coming back!

Excellent food and service with a smile

Very calm atmosphere, good food but very expensive

We ate here for the first after hearing mixed reviews and we were very pleasantly surprised! We shared a few tapas dishes to start and the olives were delicious and the calamari was delicious. They had a BOGOF offer on a 16oz steak which we opted for with myself ordering a medium and my partner requesting his well done. Both were cooked to perfection!! We will be back!

A lovely meal in a friendly and welcoming restaurant. Two of us had the paella which was really good and the other had Moules which were spectacular. As before the portions are large but excellent value for money. One f the top restaurants in Weymouth, up there with Rockfish down on the Esplanade.

What a delightful place to spend an evening. Exquisitely cooked food in a relaxing atmosphere and charming staff. I can't recommend this establishment highly enough.

Friendly, efficient service, excellent service, freshly cooked, tasty, reasonably priced lunch. Will definitely return. Thoroughly recommended.

Had a fantastic evening the food and service excellent. They put together a birthday cake for my son Tom which was lovely. It's also dog friendly and Chloe loved it

I had a amazing Starter calamari cooked to perfection loved every mouthful and the garlic mayo really complimented it. For the main I have the rump steak medium rare and it was cooked to perfection and bravas style chips I loved them great service lovely atmosphere highly recommended

just had the 2 for 1 rump steak dinner and it was fantastic! We also had starters of scallops and calamari, both were cooked to perfection. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommend!

We had a superb meal, really delicious with authentic flavours. The ladies were lovely and very attentive, nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back.

OMG!! Mixed grill is awesome. Kids loved it, we loved it. House wine was good and food was magnificent. We'll worth it!

After deciding to try and get dinner a little late in the evening and being turned away by other restaurants we came across 'the Greedy Seagull' whom welcomed us in and were happy to serve us. The menu was a mix of popular Mediterranean cuisine and some British dishes. We opted for the Lamb Kleftiko and Seafood Paella. The lamb was very generous in size and slow cooked perfectly so it fell of the bone and served with a delicious selection of vegetables. The paella was cooked superbly with the rice being just right not too hard or too soft with fresh seafood and was better than some of the paella we have had previously in Spain. The staff and chef made us feel very welcome and unrushed despite it being so late and the service was second to none. The prices are very reasonable for the quality. The restaurant itself is comfortable, cozy and clean with some very vibrant decor. We look forward to our next visit which we hope will be sooner rather than later and would definitely recommend to our friends and family.

Absolutely fantastic service and food. Staff went above and beyond and the food is simply fantastic (and we are big foodies). Great menu, executed to perfection. If we lived in Weymouth we would be going here on a regular basis !!!

We went the The Greedy Seagull in Weymouth for dinner befor a show at the pavilion The restaurant was warm and welcoming We had warm bread and loves starters followed by lamb chops and Lamb kleftico with rice. The food was generous, well prepared and served by great staff. The prices were reasonable I can recommend The Greedy Seagull - booking advised as it was busy

Loved this restaurant when 1st opened, the staff and chef was amazing and food was excellent, especially as so reasonable price wise. Returned for a meal last night and so disapointing, waited over an hour to be served, the food was not great quality ingredients and the way it was cooked was aweful. The chef and staff have all changed and sorry to say this has not been for the better. I used to recommend to everyone but sadly I won't be retuning.

Had a great meal ,service was spot on. Chose the t bone steak MR also the mixed grill. Ordered the pear layer pudding and apple crumble ,Really enjoyed our evening .Food was all cooked well. would go again.

Delicious food and lovely ambience and very attentive service. Would definitely recommend and go again

Distinctly underwhelming. Service great , starter tasteless,lamb chops with over fried potatoes & 3 salad leaf garnish with 1 slice of pepper!!! Paella okay taste wise but very oily- don’t know if it’s Changed hands but gone downhill. Won’t bother again

Can’t understand this place, reviews online good so called in, but food was just dreadful, dry and overcooked. The starter was tasteless and mains I couldn’t eat. Maybe the real chef was off sick but I think this is the first time I have paid my bill and left without eating. Just awful, staff were friendly and decorations fun but food was a real shame. Can never understand why chefs get a plate of food back and don’t ask why!

3 of us arrived we hadn't booked, but they managed to fit us in. Great food great service. Would definitely go again

Avoid this place - ordered olives which were so salty- couldn’t eat them - husband had scallops - 3 came and were quite clearly frozen ! Mains - burger not cooked brioche bun so over cooked couldn’t cut it - husband had seafood pasta - fish over cooked and whole dish dry - Complained got 10% off bill which is a joke - can’t possibly be a professional chef - can’t recall us both ever leaving a meal - thanks for ruining a birthday meal - we could have made a better effort ourselves - don’t waste your money - bet you won’t be here in a years time

Gorgeous homely tasting food! Worth every penny.

Great food, lovely atmosphere Made 6 people very happy and very full

One of my top 3 places in Weymouth and Portland. A small independent restaurant that is delectable in every way. Not only is the food superb, but the ambience makes you want to stay hour after hour. We visited tonight, which is a Sunday night out of season. Neither the service or the food quality has diminished in quality. That is why it remains a firm favourite.

Lovely tapas meal £20 as part of Food Fest deal highly recommend. , The Greedy Seagull tucked away but so worth looking for , been a few times now and it just gets better & better . Excellent wine , good value & tasty food , friendly efficient service & nice ambiance & decor , just love the seagull muriel. Thank you, hope to be back soon to sample the Christmas menu (photo).

Visited during Weymouth Feast and had the Feast menu which was 5 tapas for £20. It was amazing. The octopus was so tender. Presentation was beautiful, staff ever so friendly. Can't recommend highly enough.

This must be one of if not the best restaurants in Weymouth the food was fantastic and the service was perfect. This is a very cosy well laid out restaurant with a great friendly atmosphere. We had the most enjoyable food cooked to perfection it...

the food was not cooked to how I requested it and when they took it back they just put it on a fresh plate to hide the fact they had not fixed the problem when I requested to speak with the manager she was very...

3 of us turned up late and without a booking on Saturday night. Although they were busy they still managed to fit us in. Paella was excellent along with the service

An absolutely amazing dinner, steak cooked to perfection and atmosphere was wonderful. Staff were friendly and very helpful. As a local I highly recommend this restaurant.

we went there for my husband's birthday 25/09/23, we had such a wonderful time that we went back the next day. the food was amazing, the chef and waitress were so friendly and welcoming, and we loved the murals. this is our favourite restaurant in Weymouth. can't wait to come back here on our next holiday. i would highly recommend this restaurant.

What a fantastic meal we had at The Greedy Seagull, we had a couple of awkward guests who requested no onions or garlic in there sauce, no problem it was made fresh by the chef and was delicious. Nothing was too much trouble and the...

Wonderful food. Wonderful staff. Superb!

Really wanted this place to be good but I've tried the paella twice, and although the seafood is fresh, it's really tasteless. Some of the other dishes are good. I think that it's a Thai owner cooking Spanish food. The paella gets chaper the more...

Amazing food and service. The best mussels I’ve ever had. Such a friendly place. Staff are amazing. Every course delicious

Stumbled across this lovely little restaurant and so glad we did! The staff could not have been more helpful. With two small kids, you know how fussy they can be and these guys pulled out all stops. Chef even came out of the kitchen to...

Lovely little restaurant Menu small which is good I hate to have too much to pick from Staff very attentive & informative Advise booking as they do get busy

Absolutely lovely, four of us dined and everyone’s meal was first class. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Not expensive.

Excellent food, service and atmosphere! Mixed Grill was lovely!

I had another great meal there last night the service and the food was fantastic the fact that it was busy on a Tuesday night shows just how popular they are we will be back in the very near future. Please keep up the great...

Small independent restaurant tucked away in centre of Weymouth close to the Harbour. The food was excellent, packed with flavour. Mixed grill was an innovative spin on the usual, steak, chorizo, pork belly, really superb. Great range of tapas. Attentive service, the venue is small...

The service was excellent, the food was excellent and tasted good but the portions were tiny even the main meal was on a tiny plate and looking at others plates were twice size of mine, one sausage , tiny piece of steak, the desert two mouthfuls if that of Apple crumble, starter the same minuscule .The wine was excellent, overall all good but because of portions not worth the value £48 pounds I paid . Third time here as only live 20 yards Away.

Very good food and service. Nothing to much trouble. Despite being off the main drag this place desrves to go from strength to strength. I have eaten at many well known restaurants with top acolades, i'd rather eat here.

Nice selection of mains. Lamb kleftico was melt in the mouth. Steak was cooked to perfection. Excellent service.

Just a perfect place for a nice meal, good price and not overbearing with too many people. Great service too.

Absolutely disgusting service a disgraceful excuse for a restaurant!! Waited 40mins food food only for 3 out of 6 meals to be bought out before waiting 10 mins for chef to come out and say she’d run out of other 3 meals!! I mean why Serve half a table before saying anything this should have been mentioned when ordering!! Will never use again and suggest you stay well clear!

My husband had booked us table at the Greedy Seagull and needless to say, the staff, the food and the service were deeply below average. The meal I had ordered to my table was served raw and the second dish was cooked but awful. I’ve had better dinners out of a can. I do not recommend and will not be returning.

Second visit and a lovely spot food great again. Octopus and Squid Ink paella and Butternut squash wellington. Both delicious and good portion size. Defo be back

Nice place, friendly service and food was enjoyed by all. Good options for the kids as well.

We are here 2 weeks ago absolutely fantastic food but the service is very slow doing Uber eats it’s a shame as the ambiance is good food excellent as was the serving staff…❤️👍

Managed to squeeze our party in without booking on a Saturday night. Good food, fantastic staff and service.

Well worth visiting this lovely restaurant. Food, wine and service was 5*. We arrived late evening by boat and rang to see if they'd stay open for us. Kanya and her team were amazing. We ordered the lamb, chicken skewers and the chickpea tagine and shared our dishes. They were all delicious. I can't wait to visit Weymouth again and pay another visit. Thank you Kanya. :)

Delicious Very authentic Felt like I was in the Mediterranean

Amazing taste buds party portions very grande... Enjoyable felt like I was in the Mediterranean whilst being Costa Del Weymouth

I had the seafood paella and my wife had the mixed grill. We were greeted with a warm welcome the waitress was very friendly and helpful throughout our meal. Both of our meals were lovely couldn't fault them, we were both stuffed afterwards. We both...

Amazing food, great service. Dealt with a situation very well. Highly recommend going here

We have been past a few times, but on our last night we decided to make a reservation. I wish we made it sooner!! The service was impeccable and the menu was impressive, we could have ordered everything but unfortunately we couldn’t!!

Staff are really nice and the venue itself is OK...however they need to find a chef who can cook a burger properly. The one who is cooking clearly has no idea what he or she is doing. We arrived at 18:30 and didn't get our food until 20:30 which is ridiculous and to top it off they served what can only be described as a chunk of unseasoned, dry and dull clump of mince meat stuck in a brioche bun with half cooked potatoes next to it. Both me and my partner ordered the same thing. After telling them, they did replace my burger with another one (after another 20 minute wait) which still just tasted like a dull piece of meat that even your dog would turn their nose at. Wouldn't recommend at all if you want to eat a burger you're better off going to McDonald's or making your own considering its nearly £20 for the chef to efficiently ruin a bit of meat and stick it in a bun. I'm usually the last person to complain but if this review stops other people having their evenings ruined then this isn't a waste of time.

Amazing restaurant, friendly staff, great food. Has a hidden upstairs eating area. It’s a special place. Owner/cook served a fantastic seafood paella. The starters were tasty, fresh and hot. Certainly worth a visit.

We were most impressed with this resturant. We were welcomed by courteous and helpful staff. We enjoyed an excellent meal with both starters and main clearly freshly cooked. The owner and chef made the effort to deliver our superb Paella main course to us personally...

A small and a little off the ‘beaten track’ Mediterranean restaurant with excellent meals and excellent service. Our third meal here and it is becoming a favourite.

Fantastic find near the harbour. The food was amazing we had the pulpo frito ( octopus ), scallops, padron peppers, olive bread, kleftiko, steaks, paella. We were served by Claire and Kara who were very professional and very knowledgeable about the food/wines. Kanya the Head...

We found the restaurant by chance really glad we did food was great and the service

We were initially drawn to this restaurant by its menu as it showed gluten free and vegan symbols. My husband is gluten intolerant so this immediately put our minds at ease that the restaurant understands dietary requirements. We booked for the following evening. It’s a...

Delicious food,friendly service! Booked a table for 10 for my daughter's 21st birthday and couldn't have been happier! Would definitely recommend the chargrilled steaks...and hope to go back again soon!!!

My second time visiting this restaurant, and I will definitely go again. Nice atmosphere and the food is superb.

Lovely impromptu lunch. Amazing freshly cooked food and very friendly service.

Outstanding food and great service even when really busy, definitely going back .

We went for a special occasion and were excited by the Mediterranean menu: Kleftiko, Paella, fresh fish of the day. Shame it was all unavailable. The steak was very good. The chickpea tagine was bland though the tomato rice with it was nice. Olive bread...
