Salamander

My wife and I ate here last night and thoroughly enjoyed the food and a lovely bottle of wine. We had three dishes each (including 5 different ones) and each was as delicious as the last. We weren't sure how full we'd feel after three dishes but it's amazing how quickly they fill you up. We still had room for a plate of cheese and a shared dessert though! Well done to the new owners, a completely different dining experience in the village and we're sure it's going to be a big hit! The service was excellent too! Good luck!

Absolutely fantastic. I'm a vegetarian and wasn't sure what to expect but the staff were so helpful and every dish that was bought out was delicious. My partner had meat dishes and said they were incredible. Would definitely recommend.

After a week in Somerset Devon and Cornwall this was hands down the best meal we had. Recommended to us by a local. Superb local produce, carefully prepared and expertly presented. Fresh flavours, slightly complex but not overly complicated. Simply combined but creative enough to be interesting. Hot crab starter was wonderful. Fresh off the boat hake, chunky and flavoursome and very glad I managed to squeeze in a dessert. Also the English white wine treated a little light to start but quickly grew on me. It feels like this place should have an accolade or two , although maybe the couple running it may not want that. Lovely service too.

Very hospitable, didn't wait too long for food. Catered to my chilli allergy by changing the crumb on the lamb. So tender, perfectly portioned plate of food. Fresh potatoes and vegetables. Everything complimented each other. It was delicous. Dessert was amazing too. Had a edible salamander on both our desserts. The chocolate and fruit shot matched my dessert tart which was a lovely surprise. The local raspberry cider was good as well and I've managed to find some at home. A real hidden gem! We would come again.

Excellent food, beautifully presented. Initially we were not sure about the small plate concept but it was just perfect. Four plates each with a very nice bottle of wine made for a thoroughly enjoyable meal. Although we are not vegetarian the Korean cauliflower was a particular favorite. The staff were friendly, engaging and knowledgeable and the table service perfectly timed. The new owners have set a very high standard and dining here is thoroughly recommended.

Newly taken over. A selection of small plates which are cooked and brought out one at a time, each creative, well presented and delicious. We shared 6 plates. A really fabulous restaurant.

Nicest food we have ever had. Great cosy little restaurant with brilliant friendly service. Portions were perfect. This is our second time in mevagissey, and first time here. I would call this a must visit, at least once.

Lovely little restaurant tucked away. Quite small and plain but the food for me was excellent. My wife had the steak which she ordered as rare ( she normally orders medium ) because she had read previous reviews saying the chef tends to overcook steaks. It arrived as she likes it medium to medium rare so that paid off. I had the crab pot starter and pork fillet for main both very nice indeed. Pudding was a syrup sponge with clotted cream and a sticky toffee pudding both very good too. Definitely recommend and will return soon. Excellent value for money and a great choice

Salamander was a great choice of restaurant after The Eden Project earlier in the day. Quiet and unassuming, the food served was delicious, the staff friendly, helpful and attentive, and the atmosphere relaxing. We all very much enjoyed our food. I especially liked my smoked salmon appetiser. Two courses were £19 and three courses were £24.
