The breeze from the bay made the restaurant very comfortable despite the 95+ temps. The seafood was very tasty. Service was apologetically slow, but we weren't in a rush and enjoyed the view.

I have been to the restaurant for the last two years. It's location is unbeatable and atmosphere divine. It once was an award winning restaurant and I can see why but they need to step up their game. For starters, change the menu and introduce new delicacies. The staff are friendly but seem complacent. I told them that my steak... More

I visited the place on a sunday night and found the place to be quite free. The place was quite amazig with wonderfull landcsaping and interior deco. I went to The Wharf by the ocean front. You actually sit on the beach to have dinner here.. The quantity of food was adequate. The starters were good. The main course was... More

We are staying at the hotel and decided to eat in last night. Food was OK but 3 times more expensive than outside with the same level of service. Service improved once we commented on it but save yourself some money and eat at one of the many good restaurants in the town. Hotel food is ALAWYS hotel food!

The Wharf boasts of an excellent location and one can get a view of the magnificient Shore Temple in the distance. It has the usual 5 star service, but on the day that we went for lunch, the menu seemed limited. The food was good, but not extraordinary. We had gone there in December; the weather was beautiful and while... More

Enjoying a leisurely lunch overlooking the Bay of Bengal can be lovely experience at The Wharf, the seafood restaurant at Radisson Blu Temple Bay Resort. Our family has celebrated many birthdays and anniversaries here. The food is always excellent and today was no exception. My daughter's favourite dish is the grilled prawns- the ones we got were almost lobster size!... More

A nice setting right on the beach - reflected in the fact that the furniture is wooden benches and forms. Service was attentive but not overdone and the food was nicely cooked and enjoyable. We ate there 3 times and never had a bad dish. By far and away the best place to eat in the whole Mahabalipurum area.

The ambience and food are fantastic. The Lava Grill dishes are excellent. But you need to tell them to serve the add-ons as listed in the menu or else they may give you Indian.

Great setting by the sea and tasty, well presented food. Poor and hugely overpriced wine list. Kind and helpful staff doing their best under poor management.
