Although the menu predominantly caters for seafood tastes we decided to give it a go as there were some things on the menu that my seafood-hating wife could eat. We have eaten here a few times over the years but this was the first in a long time. This restaurant has a cosy atmosphere and is ideal for couples and... More

We spend a week in Falmouth once or twice a year, and always have dinner, at least once, at Bistro de la Mer.Our most recent visit on Tuesday of last week was as delightful as always! We had booked a few days in advance, and requested a window table, to which we were shown on arrival. Falmouth has a busy... More

2nd visit and as good as first time in September. Fab food. Good portion size. Great set menus. Service is always good, both upstairs and downstairs. Clean loos too.

We walked in off the street yesterday evening, our first time in Cornwall, and really appreciated the welcome. I had the tiger prawns which were spicy and delicious. The sea bass was tasty. My husband had the crab soup which went down a treat and the linguine was very good. I love the street level ambience and would thoroughly recommend... More

This place is a must if you like seafood, all the usual sea food dishes available. Service great, a little expensive but food also fantastic.

This tiny little bistro restored my belief in eating out this spring! My partner and I spent a week driving around Cornwall in March this year basing ourselves at 'The Headland' hotel in Newquay (which is excellent b.t.w.) and also in Falmouth for a couple of days. I wanted to try lots of restaurants since food is one of my... More

My husband had the white bait and I had huge tiger prawns with garlic butter. Main courses were steak and a Maderia sauce with new potatoes and sea bass with... More

After reading good reviews and seeing the Michelin stickers outside, my partner and I were very excited to try this restaurant on a rare night out. But we were unfortunately disappointed. My scallop starter was completely devoid of flavour and my partner's prawns were so-so. Overpriced at £8.50 and £9.50. Our sea bream special was likewise dull; the chilli marinade... More

We ate here twice during a five night stay in Falmouth. The set evening menu is very reasonable and both nights we really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. I loved the steak with a madiera and red wine jus - totally yummy. Thankyou for two lovely evenings.
