Tasty food, subtle flavours, no over salting. Lobster dumplings were "absolutely fabulous" so were the scallops. Curried cullen skink? Who would have thought it? Full marks. Meat eaters very satisfied with the lamb and pureed potatoes. Plumb puddings which did not require the use of a thumb were delicious. Good wine selection, We chose he NZ sauvignon blanc which did not disappoint. Staff very attentive without being overbearing, coupled with a relaxed unstuffy atmosphere made for an excellent evening. Would I go again? Yes, but it's a long way from Cumbria.

Had booked afternoon tea for myself and two friends and was very disappointed. The 3 tier stand arrived with a sandwich each that was cut into 4 triangles, a selection of mini cakes then a scone each on top! Their was a vegetarian option and her sandwiches consisted of two triangles with cheese and pickle on them and two with only lettuce and tomato on them! Was really very poor considering this cost us just under £16 per person! Definitely not value for money and nothing I would recommend!

Been several times over the years. Very seldom disappointed. It was very nice food and Good value.

Super little restaurant tucked away in Stromness, with nice vibe and excellent food. A cut above most of the other local pub fare.

A small but really interesting menu with exciting flavours and simply the best fish and seafood we had on Orkney - the lobster was cooked to perfection. Everything was beautifully presented. Intimate and welcoming atmosphere combined with great service wonderful food and good wine made it a really special meal out.

First time here n will defo be back. Everything was lovely and would recommend. Thanx for a lovely evening

The scallops in miso sauce were delightful, as was the lobster. However, my husband had the lamb which was rather on the salty side, and the potato purée was too smooth, and would have benefited from a bit more texture. It's always worth bearing in mind that the customer can always add salt but not take it away.

What an unexpected treasure to find in a hidden corner of Stromness where we passed a most convivial evening and appreciated the encouragingly limited menu and very discerning wine list. We particularly enjoyed the seafood dumplings, bathed in a most interesting and unusual sauce, and the hand-dived Orkney scallops, also served with a delicious and subtle sauce, and all most beautifully presented. An expensive treat, but worth the money, and the chef deserves at least a Michelin 'Bib'. We wish you every success in the future!

We had a delicious meal. The flavours were fantastic and the fusion of Orkney produce and Korean cuisine worked so well. The dishes were also well presented and portion sizes for the mains were generous. We will definitely be back! Friendly service too with all staff working well as a team.

Delicious meal as always, thank you.

Tables booked for 18 people Good service Good food Staff interacted, listened & assisted in taken pictures for us The group had no complaints about the food or staff. Some back ground music would have been nice But overall our experience was good

Food was amazing! Tasted great, hot and fresh. Atmosphere was lovely and restaurant was very clean and we had a great table. Service was okay- we felt a bit rushed at the end as were asked if we wanted to pay rather than look at desserts etc and were sort of forgotten about once seated and after about 5-10 minutes had to ask for menus.

Wonderful food and excellent service.

Delicious food, especially the vegan salad. Great service and value

Steak was good diane sauce good , chips just warm , onion rings a bit burnt .

We had a delicious meal here last evening. My husband’s lamb shoulder was succulent and tender, my aubergine was full of delicious flavors. We were well taken care of by the chef’s lovely mother who is managing the restaurant.

We really enjoyed our evening at Hamnavoe. The food was delicious and the service excellent. The venue needs an upgrade though - the toilet is horrible and the dining room could do with more upmarket decor.

Steak was nice ,diane sauce was nice onion rings were slightly burnt chips were just warm and under cooked need to get lessons on making food hot all just warm tried but would not come back .
