Food was amazing, dishes to delight my belly. Great atmosphere and we couldn't fault any dishes and we got alot of them.

Lovely location & atmosphere. Most of the food was fantastic - especially the lamb tagine, patatas bravas. However, for some dishes, the portion sizes are not value for money & leave a lot to be desired. The steak tapas dish at £10 was tiny, giving about 5 bites worth to share. It looked comically small and was cooked rare. Similarly followed by a tiny basque cheesecake at £6.50 which was no wider than a finger. These items on the menu really let the place down & need desperate feedback, as the majority is fantastic. Wanted to love it but couldn't.

Having frequented Under the Stars for many years now, our most recent visit felt like they’ve reached a new tier of excellence. The food was refined and fresh, service friendly and efficient and the drinks list full of gems. The vihno verde was a banger, in particular. Big thanks to Shona who took care of us and made sure we had everything we needed. Can’t wait for next time, thanks gang!

Walked into the bar and ordered 2 cocktails and an ‘optional’ 10% service charge was added to my order. If I am the one walking to the bar and taking my drink to the table, then what service am I receiving? It’s not like the cocktails don’t already have a surcharge for the longer time it takes to make. I was informed the service charge is mentioned on the menu which is fair, but when I’m looking at drinks, I didn’t expect to read the fine print for ‘optional’ charges that are automatically added.

Service was superb. We had Eliana the lovely young American girl and another lady whose name I sadly missed. Food was delicious , lovely staff and a stunning setting. We will definitely return.

We arrived about 45 mins early for our booking - not a problem, we were seated immediately at the bow end of the boat under the canopy! Quite a bit of attentive service at first which dwindled a little as the evening started to get busier but still not a problem. We ordered local Bristol gin and tonics and four dishes from the tapas menu - aged Manchego cheese with olives and red onion marmalade, spiced chicken thigh with preserved lemon, tabbouleh & feta yoghurt, fried Hake with a cucumber/radicchio salad and a plate of harissa & lime broccoli with red pepper ketchup & almonds. Food arrived promptly and every dish was perfectly balanced with crisp flavours of summer, accompanied by a large glass of velvety red wine - it was a faultless meal! Started to get a bit breezy later on so we moved below deck to the bar area to finish our wine, £80 including service charge - good value. It's a great venue for a Summers evening with cool music and a holiday vibe- we would return! Tip- take a cover-up for when the breeze gets up

We used to look forward to meals here, however during our last two summer visits we've been left feeling unwelcome, servers seem disinterested in providing any service. I don't know if we've just been really unlucky twice now but It's a shame, we remember some really lovely people working here in the past, but from our last 2 visits we have no desire to return again. My niece said she had a similar experience. We were a polite as could be yet service was cold and slow, and seems like they don't like you ordering food as its more effort??

Surely the last place in the world not to offer gluten free pizza. The portion sizes are tiny, my friends 'steak' was a few small slices that you couldn't have made a sandwich with. Spanish tortilla was very bland and a really small few slices for the money. Will not return, all our large party were stunned by the appalling value for money.

Attracted by the good reviews, we tried to have tapas at this beautiful place on two different days. The first day, there was a big group downstairs that claimed the full kitchen, the second day there was no kitchen for lack of staff. When asking whether we could drink something, all we could get was cocktails. No sangria. In a tapas bar. Sorry, very disappointed

Staff are great and super friendly, they really make the restaurant worthwhile. The food isn't great, it's pretty flavour less, we tried a bit of everything, even the pizzas aren't great at all. The food didn't seem freshly made, just heated in a microwave. The atmosphere seems nice in pictures, but honestly the boat is a bit grimy and could use some TLC. Overall not a fantastic culinary experience at all, really disappointing, but at least the staff made for good conversation and company.

Staff were very gracious in letting us move to a cosier spot in the corner. All together a great experience. We chose the orange wine which was lovely and pair well with everything. Food was sublime, notably the hake, pork shoulder and cauliflower stood out. Tender stem was lovely, as was the Camembert. Gambas (prawns) were a real treat as well. Special thanks to Freddie for being a lovley server. Will definitely come back again. Edit: We are now realising we neglected to mention that we were given a free limoncello as our food was delayed (30 mins waiting when they gave us the shots), however we were not thinking about the wait at all as the ambience was so nice (and the wine even better)! Thanks for looking after us on my birthday. Such a lovely dinner spot.

Even though it is clearly stated both on the board outside and on the Website that the kitchen closes at 9 PM, and I presented myself at around 8.32 PM, I have been told that they were not accepting Walk Ins anymore, and I therefore had to leave. I find it quite not allright, I mean the fact that there is a closing time displayed and also present on the Website that does not resemble the way that it actually is. I work in Hospitality since 18 years, if you put 9 PM, 9 PM is actually meant to be the last sit. Otherwise you put 8.30 PM as last sit with kitchen shutting down at 9 PM. I also tried then to book Online, but Bookings were blocked, it wasn't even busy at all. On top of that, when I left, it seemed like that the girls working in there found the whole thing quite amusing, or funny somehow, as they had a good little laugh at it. Too bad, I have been in here in the past, and I have always loved it, genuinely.

And because it’s on Harbourside there are plenty more places to go if you want to have a try other places too. I have been here multiple times and never been disappointed.
