    Great prawns and good service as always, but music from other restaurants can be available bit loud and lighting in the market switched to darkness with tiny lights after 7ish! Not the restaurants fault though

    The menu features a variety of seafood dishes, including fresh Maldon Rock Oysters, Tuna Tartare with guacamole and pomegranate, crispy Salt & Pepper Squid with aioli, marinated Grilled King Prawns with salsa verde, Warm Octopus Salad with chargrilled peppers, crab-filled buns with peri-peri sauce, a hearty Seafood Bowl with lobster and soft shell crab, and BBQ Sweetcorn Lollipops with creamy sauce.

    **A Truly Exceptional Seafood Experience** From the moment we stepped into this charming establishment, we were enveloped in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The service was nothing short of impeccable, with the delightful Carleen providing some of the best hospitality I have ever encountered. She was unfailingly attentive, radiating kindness and professionalism, ensuring that every aspect of our dining experience was flawless. Her patience, warmth, and ever-present smile truly elevated the evening. What sets this restaurant apart, however, is not only its exemplary service but also its extraordinary commitment to customer satisfaction. Upon realising that the octopus I had seen on the online menu was not available that day, the incredible Chef Ali personally left the kitchen to source it for me. This level of dedication is simply unparalleled, and the result was nothing short of sublime – the finest octopus salad I have ever had the pleasure of tasting. Every bite was a revelation, pe

    Grilled shrimp marinated in a rich, spicy sauce, garnished with fresh herbs, served with lemon wedges and a side of seaweed.

    Great food but service was awful. The wrong food and drinks were brought out, it took ages for everything to come out as well and it was like the staff kept forgetting the items we ordered

    We have been to the Sea Garden and Grill before and had a really good experience but unfortunately this time was disappointing - the food was fine (though not nearly as good as before) but the cocktails were bad (very watered down) and the service was patchy (the table next to us was piled high with dirty dishes and wasn’t cleared for ages).

    Gorgeous yummy food, as always! Have been here a few times now - often bringing a friend who has come to visit- and it’s always a hit. My only request would be to the chef - to PLEASE bring the veggies out first… not last… !! I wasn’t so keen to end my meal with broccoli ! But the food is good, so all is forgiven !

    Baked seafood mixture in a scallop shell, topped with a crispy golden crust and garnished with fresh herbs.

    Fresh, hot seafood! It came quickly. Tapas style of eating. We had salt and pepper squid, chips fried in dripping, battered fish and a soft shell crab in a bun. We also had a bottle of wine. The only plate I wouldn’t have again is the crab as the pickled veg overpowered the delicate flavour of the crab. All of the other plates were delicious. Would definitely visit again.

    Food was pretty good but not outstanding. Service was friendly but they didn’t have my booking as they thought we’d cancelled and we were given our side plates very late so we had to put any shells on tissue paper, leaving quite a mess on our table. It is also very loud on a Thursday and you can’t necessarily converse without needing to speak more loudly than you’d like.

    Young couple celebrating a birthday and 3 friends enjoying a night out - we all ended singing and dancing great night. The device was not as good as it has been, it was very slow,this could be because they were new and not used to the job. Food as usual was great.

    fantastic place to eat, service was brilliant. ended up going for the bottomless in the end and as soon as we finished our food a next tray of prawns was on our table and drinks were being topped up regularly, service was absolutely great. the prawns were tasty and succulent so good. I gave 4 stars as I think it would of been good to have a variety of fishes rather than just prawns but food was delicious, well worth the price.

    Excellent food as usual, chips are a bit expensive at £5.50 for the size of the portion but they taste amazing. The Lobster tail was to die for and the sauce was tasty. My husband had the surf and turf and said the steak was cooked to perfection! The staff are friendly and helpful and very attentive. This was our second visit and we can't wait to go back. I can't express enough how good this place or the staff is. Ten out of ten doesn't come close!

    This restaurant was recommend to me by a work colleague, I am so glad that I listened to him! This place is amazing, it may be small but it makes up for this with a great atmosphere, friendly staff and the food is great. We had the bottomless prawns which were amazing- cooked to perfection and we never had to ask for more as the staff were very attentive and as soon as they noticed that we had finished more were brought to us. The staff were very friendly and were always on hand with more drinks and food. Will definitely be going back there. Can't praise this place , the food and the happy staff enough.

    Fun vibe and excitement service. Turf and surf amazing. Dessert was moreish and well presented. The seating area is well decorated, there is a choice to have a table outside the restaurant just as nice ideal for the summer.

    Staff as always excellent! I particularly have high respect for the lady who served us this evening knowing the music across at a sushi place was having a night club with their shaking booming music and we could barely hear each other, she bravely went over to ask them to turn it a bit down, they did slightly initially. I thanked her, but the young lady at the sushi place bumped the volume back up, like a school bully. But nonetheless sea garden never fails to please us, we always leave so happy! Thank you!

    We chose Sea Garden for a friend's dinner and I'm so happy we did! The food quality was incredible, the best quality prawns I've had in London, the steak was tender, the mussels were delicious, the flavours were flavouring! We had the sticky toffee pudding for dessert and it was amazing as well. We paid roughly £30 per person and it was so worth it, I'm coming back soon for sure. The surfboard platter is nice for 2 people to share along with some other tapas.

    Loved this place and the vibe We had this on the list for a long time d wished we came sooner. Seafood may have been the freshest and most beautifully cooked I've had in a long time . Concept is sharing plates we had a surf and turf for two , had mussels , cod bites(wow so fresh!), large prawns( with the most tasty Portuguese style sauce), steak( also phenomenal) and chips. , oh and the tartare sauce. We started with anchovies and tuna tartare also great! G and t was amazing.as was the service. Highly recommend this place., owners were very welcoming. Oh if you're South African there's some little nods to our heritage which really went down well!
