Bistro Verde

Went for lunch to have Shetland Mussels in a wine/cream sauce. Although the mussels were good the sauce didn't hit the spot. For me the mark of good sauce is the joy in soaking it up with chunks of good bread. unfortunately that was not to be...the sauce really needed something else like garlic and parsley.

Nice seafood restaurant, good selection of seasonal seafood. Good wine card and daily specials. At our last visit the service was not very attentive, not dramatic but noticeable. Would absolutely go again. Sticky toffee pudding was great.

By pure chance we stopped in on the first Wednesday-night-tapas-takeover and it was fantastic. The patatas bravas were the star of the show, crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The marinated olives are a great dish to nibble on throughout the meal but each dish we had was brilliant. We had garlic prawns and calamari too and they were great. Three dishes for fifteen quid is good value for money, eat here on Wednesday and you won't be disappointed.

Very nice dinner with friend. We had a nice meal, just the crayfish was overdone. They did take off the loaded chips as a gesture for this. Otherwise, the seafood platter was delicious. I would take the crayfish out of this dish and keep the dish with the fresh seafood. Staff lovely.
