Reviews in Shoreham-by-Sea

We love this restaurant and it’s been a favourite of ours for many years but with the change in menu and less focus on seafood, the meal was disappointing. There are hundreds of restaurants that offer similar foods and unfortunately there’s nothing that special now that would make us want to keep coming back. And it was expensive. The seafood was the thing that was unique, exceptional and made us return time and again. The quality of the food is always good but it’s lost what made is great.

Lovely staff, relaxed atmosphere, fab food.

We had a lovely meal, food was really well presented and tasty. Speed of service was just right too. Menu initially a little confusing as wasn't sure if it was Tapas style and how big the portions would be but we did enjoy our food and they was we ordered worked. My Eton Mess was more of a Sundae but ok. Mussels, squid and fish & chips were our favourite. It was a real shame to discover the 10% service charge had automatically been applied after I'd paid the bill. I didn't see this mentioned on the menu and it was quite small at the bottom of the bill so i just didn't notice. My error and I wasn't going to ask for a refund but paying £14 for good but unremarkable service when you're only 3 adults and 2 children seemed a bit steep. Would have been happy to leave a small tip but could be made clearer it is added, appreciate also my own error for not spotting it soon enough.

Go here quite often Always very good never fails on anything

Thus is our "go to" restaurant. We went last Thursday to celebrate what would have been our daughter's 10th wedding anniversary. Her husband died before Christmas. The food was amazing, we went for two shared menus and then ordered a couple of other dishes. The children ordered fish and chips and mussels. The portions were just perfect. I ordered the fillet steak, David cooked it just as I like it, very, very blue, just fabulous. Jacqui, Esther and Milly were magically available when we needed then but certainly did nid not hover. Although it was a sad occasion the atmosphere, food and service were so good it made it something to remember. Many, many thanks

A delightful little restaurant which caters for everyone including smaller portions and fresh food

had the sharing plate for 2 and what a delight great fish cookery fused with fruit will definitely be going back again.

We found the menu somewhat confusing. It would have helped if it had it was Tapas style. Whilst the food was good we preferred the original style menu and food.

We absolutely love this place. Local, fresh fish, great staff, always enjoy the atmosphere. Just fab

What an amazing little treasure of a place we found in Shoreham. From the cozy table for 5 noisy Pilates students, to the friendly, professional staff and the diverse and exciting seafood menu. The hours slipped by, interjected only by the waiting staff, who made us feel relaxed and in no hurry to ‘push us out’, despite even what we considered, was outstaying our welcome. Thank you for making our post Covid and long awaited get together, great.

First time back since covid Liked the new style of menu, as always service excellent, nothing to much trouble. I enjoyed the sharing experience something new, will be back!!

I took my partner to this establishment for her birthday meal after hearing positive things about it and I’m happy to say we were both very pleased with the value,quality of food and excellent service by wonderful attentive staff.My partner told me I did something right for a change lol would certainly return to try again!

Small plates of fusion style food , always great flavour combo's . You must try the Indian Kissed Potatoes with whatever else you order.

We always look forward to a night out ,at Into the blue , and it never dissapoints us , food is always cooked to perfection. We had the tasting menu and it was fantastic . We definitely will try a new tasting menu again . Keep up the good work and we will see you again soon . Thank you

Great lunch, great service and food, fabulous place for a special birthday lunch!

Plus and minus. The food was excellent, beautifully cooked and presented. However, It was a confusing menu, we didn't realise that it was basically a fish tapas,and we had expected to order, starter, main and maybe desert. Can see that regular customers could go away very disappointed, certainly with portion sizes and style of the meal. Service good, except the new concept was not made clear to us. Value for money, not so good, we have had many lunches out locally(across Sussex), which are just over half of the price, I think you have possibly made it a marmite place. Food score on taste and quality would be 5, But, on value and choice 2

I haven’t been to Into the Blue for a few years and have to say I was rather disappointed with the Tapas style menu. The only option for a main course size meal was the fish and chips all others were more of a starter size yet still fairly expensive.

Into the Blue is such a gem. Looks unassuming but it’s reliable excellent food, and great value. Lots of specials so you can try something different every time (not that I get to go that often sadly). An absolute must for fish lovers!
