Overpriced and average food (which also gave us both dodgy stomachs). Service wasn't that friendly either.

Called in for a spontaneous lunch. We ate the steak sandwich and the special of skate wing. Both were delicious. Staff are friendly but professional. We will be back. We've been here many times for a coffee on the outdoor balcony.

Unbelievable food from start to finish, do not leave St Ives without dining out at the Porthminster Kitchen. We’ll be back, definitely.

I came here with my family and the service was below expectations.We thought it would be a welcoming experience however the waiters were passive aggressive and my family had to endure dirty looks throughout our lunch meal. Then when we wanted to order more food, the replies and attitude from the waiters were rushed and it seemed as if they wanted us out of the shop despite it not being very busy. It was quite uncomfortable as we had older family members with us as well. We were the only family there who received this treatment. It was really disappointing.The food was alright. Made and served quickly but it was hard to enjoy with waiters who seemed like they didn't us around.Hopefully other customers who come here to lunch or anything do not catch the waiters on a bad day!

Great seafood and service to match, never had a bad meal here.

Food was not only flavourless but actively disgusting. Service was really nice though. Can’t believe this place had so many good reviews, the fish isn’t event fresh although it’s ON the sea front. Bit of a joke. Do not recommend.

Not much of an atmosphere and hardly any tables booked. Plenty of space for walk ins which was surprising having been there a few years ago and remember it being packed out. Food was ok but nothing spectacular. What really let it down was how pretentious some of the waiting staff were. Really unfriendly considering how it’s not exactly cheap! Wouldn’t recommend for families at all.

Me and my friends had lunch in this amazing place in front of the beach. From the lovely welcoming until the dessert, we enjoyed every single detail. The food was amazing, very tasty. The place it's warm, simple and nice decoration with a fire place which make you feel cozy. I recommend it 10/10. Thank
We arrived with our dog for a birthday lunch after using open table to book in. The staff were arrogant and dismissive from the start. They said they didn’t realise we had a dog. I explained there wasn’t a facility to add a dog to our booking on open table, so I’d checked online beforehand where it stated the restaurant was ‘dog friendly’. It clearly wasn’t! Despite the restaurant being empty, they said we could only sit at one table by the door due to our canine companion. We were made to feel completely uncomfortable and unwanted. Because of the terrible, unfriendly, arrogant front of house staff, we chose to forego the overpriced food and just had a drink and left, NEVER to return. Such a shame as we were really looking forward to a lovely birthday lunch. As I see from reviews, the arrogant service continues and we were not alone in receiving it!

What a lovely restaurant with a fab view, great food, and looked after our little girl so well. It’s just about the only restaurant we have ever been to that serves plain pasta on the kids menu….something she loves!! We will definitely be back.

Pretty location. Food exceptional. Staff welcoming. Think improves each time we visit. We had steak, duck, monkfish curry ; mackerel Pate was so good.
