Went here for lunch.... used to go before, but it went a bit downhill with smaller and smaller portions, however it seems like it has been taken over by new people and back to its former glory! They have kept the good bits of the old restaurant and added their own touches. The lunch at circa £12 for two courses... More

Lovely selection on the menu with all locally landed seafood. The menu had a mix of traditional and what had a bit of a Mediterranean feel to it. All meals were lovely and presented wonderfully. Staff were very attentive and it was interesting o see the food prepared at the back of restaurant (through a glass screen). We went quite... More

If you are planning a visit to Mumbles area or Swansea, take the time to book a table at this little gem in Mumbles. Fish selection and quality is truly fantastic as was service with a good choice of wine. Faultless!

Can't comment on the main menu which looks a little pricey but the lunchtime options really are worth a try. As the name suggests this restaurant specialises in fish and sea food although there are alternatives available for those seeking something different. Our party of six adults and one child were warmly greeted and quickly seated. The restaurant was very... More

My mother always told me that (standing at 4ft 11 3/4 inches tall) good things come in small packages! half way between Mumbles and the Pier, Out of the Blue is a little gem of a restaurant that serves deliciously cooked fresh fish (as well as some meat-based meals) that reflect Mumbles' history as a place to visit for its...

A very smart restaurant with a great menu not only for fish eaters We were very well looked after and enjoyed all the different variations on a standard fish menu The sea water drops were great and really added to the whole taste of the dish Well worth the money

The rating I have provided is as high as it is as they found us a table on Easter Saturday - the only table left in Mumbles we think. Also, they served a great patagonian wine. We took our table at 8pm but were not able to order until 845; our starters arrived at 915pm. My smoked trout mousse was... More

My husband and I had a delicious 3 course lunch here today. The food was good quality, well presented and tasted great. To start I had a prawn cocktail with cucumber, smoked salmon, dill & Melba toast. My husband had mushroom soup with truffle oil. We both then had battered hake, triple cooked chips, mushy peas & onion rings -... More

I really don't like the thought of giving a place such a low score, but in this case I have to. I have just returned from this place very unhappy. Service was good, but the food appalling. For starters, I had the scallops. They were not fresh! That's as much as I can say about that. For the main course,... More
