Reviews in Shoreham-by-Sea

Enjoyed our meal very much, nice staff very friendly, food well presented and tasty. All food was served nice and hot. Will be back again soon

Visiting the Ropetackle for a show, we wanted somewhere nearby for something to eat. We’re from near Bognor Regis and don’t know the area well so did the usual google search and Into The Blue came up. When we arrived we were the only people in the restaurant but we were there very early and within a short time the restaurant started to fill. By the time we got our food the restaurant was packed and rightly so. It is a delightful little place with lovely friendly staff all respecting the safety rules. The food was truly excellent. I had a delicious fish pie, packed with fish and prawns, my friend had bouillabaisse which she said was fabulous and my husband had a whole lobster Thermidor which he said was the best he’d eaten since we got married (we’d had it on our honeymoon 42 years ago and many times since). We consider ourselves foodies, being fortunate to eat in some of the best restaurants in the world, Into the Blue was a joy to find and deserves the 5 stars across the board. We won’t wait for another theatre trip to revisit which we hope will be very soon. Well done Into The Blue team

We had the most amazing meal here yesterday evening. The food was incredible and the staff were delightful. An excellent find and we will be returning.

Beautifully cooked seafood dishes. Presentation, superb. Service was excellent. Highly recommended. Can’t wait to be come back and try other dishes in your menu.

Visited for a birthday lunch. Nice food but not exceptional. Dover sole and cod dishes overcooked in my opinion. Will visit again probably and give some different dishes a try.

Difficult to find, and in an unassuming location, but very well worth the effort of finding it! Excellent variety of food, excellently prepared and served. Very friendly staff, and "buzzy" atmosphere. Glad we live an hour away, otherwise we'd be going there too often! Cannot praise too highly

Really nice service, atmosphere and food. Good choice of menu including a couple of specials. However like all fish restaurants a little more expensive .

What a lovely place to eat. Why go into Brighton when you can get much better here. Thank you I came very recently with a group of friends. And I just had to book as soon as I got home to bring my husband to try it out. And I’m very glad to say he also loved it and we will be coming back very soon.

A family favourite for us. Lovely atmosphere with cheerful attentive staff. Two of us had the Fish Tacos yesterday, absolutely superb. Nicest plate of food I have eaten in a while. Thoroughly recommend!!

Has a feel good feeling and the food is great.

Wonderful food and service so lucky to have this in my home town.

I hadn’t been here for ages . I went with a great friend . We could not fault into the blue. Food was amazing we shared everything we had mackerel pte and chill squid. Then we shared the blue seafood platter . Couple of glasses of lovely Pinot . Bill was so reasonable . The service was spot on . Friendly , with attention to detail . Food came out hot and a perfect speed

Excellent food (I had Lobster Thermidor as a birthday treat), but we all enjoyed our meals, very well presented and cooked! I usually have the Bouillabaisse which is top notch!

Fantastic food fantastic service. Monkfish was amazing.

First dined here more than 15 years ago when music biz friends took us , explaining it was a somewhat surprising‘destination seafood restaurant’. They weren’t wrong , it was a fantastic experience. Somehow, I had never returned - until Friday night, because now I am fortunate to live a mere stone’s throw from its door! It looks just as unprepossessing from the outside and still feels reassuringly un-trendy on the inside. The thing is the natural, unstuffy warmth of the staff (of a pleasing age range) and the delicious dishes. We chose from the specials board although the main menu is enticing in itself (including non-fish options). We shared a wonderfully textured warm octopus salad, my friend opted for crab main which he said was excellent, while I had sea bass tacos which were zinging with fresh flavours and served with sweet potato fries triple fried to perfection. We didn’t have dessert but our neighbours were delighted with theirs! The atmosphere was ringing with joy, laughter and simple pleasures; blissfully unpretentious. And the bill? Just over £40, including service. Ok we only had soft drinks (and a courtesy large carafe of tap water was brought to the table immediately) but with the quality of the food , the love and knowledge that goes into its selection, cooking and presentation, I’d say that’s remarkably good value.

1st visit after I’ve lived in Shoreham for 20 years!! Why I waited I don’t know but def worth the wait, absolutely fantastic food prepared beautifully and tasted amazing, the fruit de mar was to die for, well worth the visit and I won’t be waiting 20 years until the next visit…

We tried here for the first time recently......amazing. The food was every bit as good as we’d expected, if not better. The specials were incredible and the right balance of departure from their regular menu which is fantastic already. We’ll definitely be making this as one of our regular places to eat.
