Stunning food and great staff. Food was easily the best sea food I’ve had and definitely up there with Michelin and AA Rosette rated restaurant I’ve been too. Would 100% recommend this place!

On a recommendation of a chef friend of ours, we booked lunch on a beautifully sunny Wednesday last week. Lovely reception from the staff. Menu is tapas style but infinity variable. We ordered five dishes to share, and this was plenty for the three of us. the food freshly cooked in an open kitchen and is nicely presented but tastes brilliant! Posh cheesey chips are magnificent. Would happy recommend and come back when we are next in the area. Good wine list, some really interesting alcohol free wines reasonable pricing.

I wouldn’t normally write a Google review but the food was so fantastic that I had to. We ordered multiple tapas style dishes and I liked every one so much I wouldn’t have been able to pick a favourite. They flavours are imaginative and the food is well presented. The staff were also very attentive and welcoming. I would definitely recommend Land and sea!

Food, service and atmosphere were wonderful. We had six small plates and all were layered with flavour and textures. The art work in the restaurant is so eye catching and suits the vib. Chef talked us through a few plates and the whole service was friendly. Definitely coming back!
