The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in The Vale of Glamorgan South East

Was pretty excited to come here after seeing so many great reviews. Food was nice, the mains were gorgeous. Chef is lovely and asked how we found the food, clearly is very talented. The brownie dessert was heated up but possibly too long as it was quite chewy and tough suggesting it’s been over heated. Let down by the service front of house sadly, didn’t feel very welcomed or very friendly and I felt uncomfortable at times. Not sure if it was just an ‘off’ night.

We just want to say a huge THANK YOU for the delicious food that Mehmet and his team served at our wedding. We were so touched with the level of care and attention that they put into the event, from planning and preparation to the quality of what they achieved on the day itself. We absolutely loved how colourful and celebratory the dishes were and it was all so beautifully presented. It was a real 'wow' moment when we walked into the hall and saw the meze on the tables. The food felt like a really important and memorable part of the day and we were thrilled with how it turned out. Lots of guests said the food was incredible and asked where it was from. We have wholeheartedly recommended visiting the restaurant.

Recently my husband and I met friends who booked a table at The Lighthouse for Sunday lunch. The restaurant is a part of Barry Yacht Club and is located near to Jackson Bay (wonderful quiet beach). We arrived 45 minutes early, so we sat outside in the beer garden and enjoyed some quality time together admiring the seaview. Our table was ready at the allocated time and we moved inside. The restaurant was immaculate with tasteful decor. There was a great family friendly atmosphere and the restaurant was very busy. Our orders were taken by a friendly, professional member of staff. For the mains myself and my husband both ordered the lamb, my friend selected the vegetarian wellington and her husband had beef. The food was nicely presented and was served with a tremendous variety of vegetables including baby carrots, broccoli, mashed vegetables, peas, green beans and leek. The roast potatoes were absolutely delicious and I was cheeky enough to ask for an extra one. The Yorkshire pudding was perfect and the meal was nicely finished with a fantastic homemade gravy. The quality of the meat really stood out, it was beautifully cooked, nicely flavoured, perfectly carved and tasted fantastic. Once we finished the main course washed down with a bottle of wine we browsed the dessert menu. Ample time was left in between courses and I ordered the cheesecake, my husband had ice-cream and our friends both had chocolate fudge cake. The desserts were the perfect size and tasted exquisite. Throughout our meal we received excellent customer service and our meals were very good value for money. We really can't wait to visit again especially as there was a fantastic menu covering all.meals including breakfast, lunch and evening meals. There were also a childrens menu available.

Ordered 2 meals and they were brought to our table within 5 minutes. I asked the manageress if they were freshly cooked. Her reply was yes..... Yeh right. The food was mediocre at best....

Absolutely love this place, classy decor, delicious food and attentive service.. Chicken fillets barbados were delicious .. Had a bottle of rose cava, which was different to the usual house one, not great...pretty tasteless for £37...but will still return, as everything else is gorgeous Restaurant is beautifully decorated, so a great place for a festive meal

We had the pleasure of eating at La Marina for a special occasion, and it was truly wonderful! The location is perfect, with beautiful views and a calm atmosphere that made our stay so relaxing. The service was spectacular from start to finish, with every detail thoughtfully taken care of. A special shout-out to Pedro, who went above and beyond to make our visit even more memorable. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made all the difference. We can’t wait to return, and we highly recommend!

Myself and my partner ate here last night for my birthday. Our waitress was Monica who was attentive and advised us impeccably with our food choices. Her service skills were exemplary. The ambience was on point as usual and the food, consisting of fresh ingredients, was flawless. Benoir runs a very tight ship and is a total professional. We could not give any of the experience less than 5 stars. We will be back.
