The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in Isle of Wight South East

Quality burgers! Best we’ve had on the island!

Well what a fantastic service we went for. Yes it comes with the high price tag, but when you go for a treat date afternoon and make it a special occasion its worth the splurg. We were looked after from the minute we arrived. A cute placement card to our lovely presented table. We enjoyed the prawns bowl and taco starter with the lemon sole main washed down with some fizz and cocktails. Becs and rhys went out of their way to give us top notch hospitality. The dishes had a good wait between the courses and the cocktails james made were fab. Every part of the menu was described perfectly. We will be back, thankyou

Visited the Smoking Lobster with friends for out of season lunch (2 or 3 course). Very friendly and attentive waitress and fast service. Friends had the bream and I had the teriyaki steak burger. Bream was OK but dry, burger was ordinary. In all a bit disappointing for a lunch costing £75 a couple at a prestigious restaurant.

Average at best. £12.50 for 4 prawns on skewers as a sharing plate. The Moroccan chicken skewers with Cous Cous was below par and although presented relatively well it did not lend itself to the so called exciting dishes as advertised! The menu choices are not good and quite frankly sparse. The choice of desserts was disheartening, although reasonably priced. The drinks are expensive £3.50 for a half of Coke and £10 for a glass of wine is quite honestly too much. The Good friendly service from the front of house staff can’t be faulted. Average food at an above average price. Will definitely NOT be going back.

A regular haunt for us now. Food quality versus price is the best in the area, in our opinion. Brilliant fish and chip offering.
