Lovely little restaurant, with excellent food. They catered well to my slightly complicated dietary requirements, and everyone in our group of 5 had a delicious meal. The fish was cooked perfectly (which I suppose you'd hope would be a bare minimum for a seafood restaurant but you can never be sure!). The desserts we had were also very good, as was the wine. The kitchen is open so you can see your food being prepared, and it looks reassuringly clean and tidy! Ian the chef seems like a nice bloke too, and made me feel like my dietary needs were no problem at all. The building itself is quirky, tucked away in a courtyard and built into the side of the cliff, so it almost reminds me of the places built into the caves in Granada, Spain!

First time here this evening and will defo be going back. went for a date night for something special and this little place didn't disappoint. The lady front of house was lovely and so was the chef who came out and chatted with us and made sure that our food was to our liking. Nice to see the chef cooking our food too. The cave set of the environment and atmosphere and nothing was too much for the guys who work there. we had surf and turf which was beautiful and then for dessert I had blueberry Eton mess and my partner had the special cheesecake which both was lovely. keep up the good work we will definitely be returning.

I wanted to eat at a seafood restaurant. I found this via Google. I had the seafood platter to start. Very large portion. Plenty of delicious seafood, nice sauces... (Maybe needs another slice of bread to mop them). My wife had the calamari special and enjoyed them too. I then had the fish mixed grill. Lovely food again. Several fish, served with gambas and pan fried carrots and parsnips. My wife had the fish and chips which she enjoyed. We had great desserts to finish with. I had a carrot cake and my wife a cheesecake. They are both handmade. We don't visit the area often but if we do, we will pay this restaurant another visit. It's worth it.

The wife and I decided to call here during a visit to Matlock Bath. The venue is tucked away from the main road and is lovely and clean. I love an open kitchen where the chefs are proud to show off their skills to guests. Staff were friendly and attentive. And the food!!! Wow!!! Simply awesome and delicious. The wife had the Seafood Platter and I had the Surf and Turf,consisting of Derbyshire Pork Belly with four different fish fillets! Absolutely delicious. We have already decided we will be back. Highly recommend this place.

So for the last time before the venue closes next month I returned to the Seafood Cave & Grill. The only place I'd never sat was the chefs table and last night we were seated there. Matlock really have lost a gem here. The food was just delicious. I really hope to see them in another venue soon. The service, the intimacy of the place, the food, was all just perfect to/for me. Thank you for 5 beautiful dining experiences 😢
