Beautiful blue eye cod dry and overcooked. Lamb cutlets also dried out. A real shame to have top quality product tortured like this. I would have sent it back for the chef to chew on, but my overseas guests didn't want to make an issue, even though they agreed.

My husband and I have eaten at Nor' East twice before over the past two years and enjoyed it for its lovely food and ambience plus the great view. So when two girlfriends wanted to go out last Saturday night and leave the hubbies behind with the kids I recommended the place. Our booking was for 8pm. This is a... More

Staff were very friendly - oyster mornay was tasty and well presented. However that's where it stopped - I had Tempura Salmon - when does a small piece of Salmon between 2 sheets of PASTRY be classify as Tempura????

Nor' East actually devised a set of dishes for us to suit our requirements, gave us personal service, and provided a very pleasant outdoor setting at the water's edge. On a more recent family supper outing, the location meant that... More

We only go here with our entertainment book but it's pretty good food with a great view!
