Always came here for a burger over the years and changing of hands.
Had one this week (Monday 10th March) the burger was tasty but overcooked, so dry. Chips were nice but tasted like just ordinary salt, no hint of rosemary!
Wow... in my experience..the positive reviews here are so, so wrong.
Could have been a 'bad night' but suspect this place is a case of 'Emporer's New Clothes' in a town with little in the way of fine dining (and I have sampled such across the world).
Very disappointing as the latter is was what I expected... and all being well, was prepared to pay handsomely for.
In summary however, the food was not expertly cooked and in parts, unpleasantly over flavoured (arrived a bit on the quick side) ...all from a rather limited menu and accompanied by an excessive wine list that attempts to compensate for a poor quality product... all vastly overpriced (for what you end up getting).
In addition, while service adequate, downgraded as older waitress rather 'brusque'... with space / tables so compacted you are constantly reached across. No where for coats or bag storage you just have to sling them over your chairs or dump them on the floor around the table, adding to the 'cluttered' feel.
Probably wouldn't be as bad if they didn't try to ram as many tables as possible into what is a pretty boutique space.
I am not averse to complaining, but we just wanted to finish up what we could and leave. Basically, our bad for going there and all in all.. being reasonable people, while what we got, we considered substandard ... we did get 'something'.
'Suck it up' as they say (given opinions re the food, no double entendre intended).
The restaurant provided an excellent dining experience; the early 6:30 PM seating resulted in a tranquil ambience, contributing to the four-star rating. Our server, the restaurant manager, was exceptionally helpful, courteous, and attentive. The food was superb and served promptly.

A drink each, shared starter, 2 mains and a fairly large side of dirty fries, so a little more costly than average but worth it..
We came here for food and boy was it a good decision. Out of the three meals we ordered all of them were delicious from the pizza to the carbonara to the prawns. I couldn’t fault a single thing. And the puddings were amazing, we had tiramisu and pancotta. Delicious! The service was incredibly fast and efficient. We will be coming back!
Poor in every department. We waited almost 30 minutes for our nachos starter and it was cold when it eventually arrived. We had pork belly, pasta, chicken and smash burgers for main. Every main course was poor. Cold spots through the mash potato, pasta like mush and greasy burgers. In fairness, the staff were very apologetic and tried to make amends by allowing one of our party to mix their own cocktail. We were offered free desserts, but based on the previous offerings, no one wanted to risk it.
Wonderful experience. Staff so accommodating and helpful. Food excellent and served hot. Lots to choose from . Great veggie options. Will visit again when holidaying in bluestone
We had a really disappointing experience at the restaurant following the change in ownership.
For a number of years we have visited this restaurant and have spent a number of New Year Eves with them.
Unfortunately, our visit last night was a shock to the system. The restaurant has gone from being a buzzing environment with great food and great wine, to a building that was less than half empty with covers - 6 tables in fact with poor food and an even worse wine choice.
The waitresses were attentive, but apart from that unfortunately we cannot advocate much else.
The restaurant is a staple of Tenby and we were extremely sad to see and experience it in its current decline. Hopefully it can be arrested and returned to its former standard.
The food was below average and despite 5 courses, containing different ingredients it very much all tasted the same.
The wine menu now has an extremely limited choice of four red and four whites - not want you would expect for this type of restaurant.
Other half really rated this place and it ain't cheap! Portions were large, but the "salad"was dreadful, and the rest of the food bland and unexciting. The lefthand side of the restaurant is dull, dull, dull - guess where we were seated - and you're lucky if you get to see much of the inattentive waiting staff. Basically, not much cooking goes on here, it's just stuff from the grill, freezer or the big bowl of chopped up "salad". Not in a hurry to go back, as it's very expensive for what it is.
Lovely welcome on arrival, attentive service. Although we only had cake, the food that was being served to others looked amazing. Will definitely return for a meal
I had a 4 bean chilli with nachos which was very tasty. The sweet potato fries were crispy and well cooked. The special for the day, salmon cajun was also nicely done. Certainly recommend a visit if you are in the area.
