Neighborhood gem

Shoals Seafood Restaurant is the brainchild of Sean and Sarah Perkes. Established in 2014, the once storage room for the open air seawater pool has been transformed into a unique fish lovers dream.

A beautiful meal in a breathtaking setting! I had the octopus to start and muscles for main. Both were delicious!! We would definitely recommend and do hope to return. Our table was booked for 8:15. The restaurant was really quite warm and the sun was shining through the windows onto us making things a little uncomfortable. I realise this can be difficult to manage in very hot weather but maybe some blinds or air-conditioning could be beneficial to both customers and staff. Many thanks to the very welcoming and friendly team. We enjoyed our visit!

Service was poor waited 45 minutes for a starter, main course again a 45 minute wait. The staff were very pleasant and apologetic, walk in guests ordering burgers got a better service. We went there for the fish which was excellent .

The food was amazing, we had 3 different starters. The hot crab dip , tempura prawns and Brixham fish goujons all outstanding. 2 of us had the monkfish and scallops in whiskey and bacon cream sauce and 1 had the skate wing. We all said how fantastic our food was. We couldn’t fault anything. The staff were very pleasant. Will definitely be coming back.
