Have been here previously when on holiday. Well worth a visit. You must book or be disappointed. Wonderful fresh ingredients, carefully blended flavours. Great service and atmosphere. Truly something very different. Loved the scollops and deep fried bread and butter pudding.

The food and service are excellent. But - the menu is totally confusing. While the dishes clearly fall into appetisers, starters and mains they are presented as 'tapas' with no indication of size. Guidance by staff is equally poor. Unfortuately this spoils an otherwise excellent experience.

We’ve been here a number of times now and the food never disappoints. The menu changes quite often but each time it’s full of great options. The staff are very friendly and the vibe is great too.

We had a delicious meal at Land + Sea to celebrate my partner's birthday. The staff were so welcoming, providing a highchair and making space for our son's buggy. The atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly. All the dishes were wonderful but the lamb and the orrechiette with mussels were our highlights, my son kept asking for more lamb! Thanks so much for a really special meal.

Wonderful little restaurant. We got to sit by the window which was a treat and the atmosphere nicer than we expected from photos. Enjoyed the food more than I have anywhere in a long long time. It was fun and different and inventive. Some of the flavours were exceptional. Outstanding dishes were the scallops, prawns, asparagus and fried bread and butter pudding. We also enjoyed the sourdough and feta with butter beans. The only loser was a crab pasta which I think must have been a little overcooked. Would recommend to anyone to try for a nice evening out
