    Not a great experience, ordered drinks a couple of times and had to re-ask when they didn’t arrive. Food had wedding catering vibes, mass produced and not fresh. Wasn’t worth the money paid.

    Had an amazing experience with my partner as a sneaky little date night. Midweek was perfect, personal seating and a beautifully decorated space. We both highly enjoyed every dish we ordered nothing to pick at or even refer to in order of complaints. The staff were very accommodating and prompt with their service. Would highly recommend trying Saint Malo for your self. We will be back. Thanks to all involved in a lovely meal and pleasant affordable night.

    This was my 2nd visit and I’m sorry to say wasn’t as good as the first. Food was amazing, did feel as a vegetarian there wasn’t as many choices but I could still enjoy a few dishes. What let the experience down this time was the service. It wasn’t mentioned that entrees and tapas all came out together until they all came out together and we couldn’t move for food on the table. Then we were left for quite a while. 40 minutes after we’d finished the entrees and tapas someone came up and asked if we were done, we asked where our mains were, the response to which was ‘have you not had them yet?’ We then asked to cancel them about 3 times before the message was received. The food is amazing and I love the ambience, the service last night felt really lacklustre and like the staff just didn’t care - it was a shame because up until last night, I would’ve been telling everyone I know to go here.

    Family lunch. Ordered the set ‘feed me ‘ menu. Food and service was excellent . We particularly enjoyed the octopus , Slow cooked lamb a d spatchcock ( not dry and boney at all). Wines were good. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Definitely recommend. as too cold to sit outside, but would be lovely in the summertime. Recommended.

    Enjoyed a birthday lunch with family. Were able to catch up as the background noise level was very low. Food and drinks was spot on. Perfect.

    Beautiful restaurant and lovely staff but sadly the paella was a let down. Tastless, salty and very oily. Cured meats were delicious
    Saint MaloResponded on 16 April 2024
    Hi Nightout! Thank you for the review, we appreciate your time. Our talented Executive Chef and his team take our guests feedback reference their creations very seriously. I can assure you this will be followed up; I certainly hope you raised your concerns with our service staff on the evening as we are more than happy to swap out or replace for you. It is our pleasure always to deliver a supreme cuisine experience. We hope to welcome you back again. Director/ Saint Malo
