This restaurant is incredible! Food is tasty and so fresh! Good selection of wine and beer. The service was excellent, we were looked after by everyone one. Put this on your list to visit. Will definitely be going back.
Lovely family run business that is well presented and heartily welcoming, we had fresh lobster that was presented perfectly and tasted out of this world! The sides were absolutely delicious and the hostess could not do enough. I enjoyed every minute! 5.
What a great place, great staff, chefs welcomed me as being seated, the waiters were the best I’ve had in a long while, very friendly and personable. The food was second to none! I highly recommend, healthy, refreshing and nice selection of drinks. Thank you!

PALOMAR REVIEWS
Dined with friends on a Wednesday evening. Servers were incredibly polite and attentive! The food was delishhhhh. The portion sizes were very substantial. I feel like a main would be sufficient for two grown adults to share! The ambience was lovely. Great wine selection and interesting and varied cocktail list! Also, very affordable. I will definitely attend again!
The seafood platter was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. My partner had the Surf and Turf. Would highly recommend, have had so many likes/loves since I posted my food photos on FB. I cannot wait to go back and try some of the other dishes. I really liked the fish trolley, nice touch.
What can I say. this was probably the nicest meal we've ever had! Such good quality seafood, the service was spot on and we couldn't stop talking about the food, just so good! The place feels special but without being pretentious at all. They've got it just right!

LAZY LOBSTER CHEW MAGNA REVIEWS
Amazing lunch here. Oysters prepared to perfection and dressed with vodka & lime. The red mullet was paired with a punchy salsa. The octopus was crispy on the outside and soft inside. Everything was super fresh and cooked with style. So many other great dishes. We will be back!
We had a lovely evening at Lazy Lobster. We came for my partners birthday and they wrote a cute card for the table. The menu was explained to us very well and we ordered as recommended. We were blown away by the flavours and the quality of the fish. This is by far the best fish we have had in a very long time. The restaurant is beautiful, chilled and welcoming. We just had such a fantastic experience. Well worth the 50min drive and we will be back! Thank you so much.
All the food were very tasty and special. We could feel the chef very passionate with food. Scallop not overcooked it was just right, octopus is crispy outside and soft inside. I really enjoyed the deep fry oyster, it's not easy to find a restaurant make deep fry oyster. The fish taste excellent with the sauce they use!!! Will definitely come back again!!
