The best restaurants in Ryde East Isle of Wight South East

We met local friends for a birthday lunch (our trains were cancelled so we ended up driving, and made the ferry with minutes to spare). It was absolutely brilliant. The staff looked after us excellently, the food was amazing, the decor and view were like the pictures. So many interesting things to watch on the beach. We all said we would happily come back again. Thank you so much.

Great prices and superb service

Initially just popped in for a drink but, after seeing the menu, we decided to cancel our dinner reservation somewhere else. We were not disappointed, everything we are was delicious but the balinese whole fish was a dish we will remember for a long time. Highly recommended.

The olive tree is a great place to eat with prices. Very reasonable and quality top notch

Lack of attention, service was poor, we had to remind them we’ve ordered a bottle of wine (they forgot) no attention to anyone at all, customer service lacking which meant there was little atmosphere. If the staff spoke more and asked “was the food ok, or can we get you anything else” might have added to an otherwise average experience. We asked if we could sit next to the window, we were told no that table is booked, yes the couple who came later were asked “where would you like to sit, guess what, they had the table we asked to sit at” it wasn’t reserved then!!. The nibbles were bland. Deserts disappointing. Mains nice but over priced. Will I return (no). Shame. Improve your customer attentiveness, talk and interact, these add to the experience.

The food tasted like, it was cooked by someone who has worked at the restaurant since it opened its doors, and no longer cares! lose the kitchen staff, appreciate the hard working Front of House more, and get rid of the manager who has little man syndrome
