Excellent fish very well cooked. It's a busy restaurant with tables very close to each other. Service was attentive and pleasant, but the overall impression is of a very busy establishment. Definitely worth visiting. More

Excellent freshly prepared food, which was well presented without being pretentious. Delicious veg and we both enjoyed our fish. Great menu, simple pricing and some unusual good wines. A little cramped but this is offset by having adequately sized tables, which enable all the settings to be accomodated without overlap. A most enjoyable dining experience. More

We ate here very recently for a celebratory meal and overall it was lovely. Food was very good (a good selection of red meat and fish choices) and the wine list was sensibly priced. Service, though friendly, was slightly amateurish at times (we had to ask for drinks and one of our main courses came with chips despite the order... More

We ate at the salamander restuarant on Sat 5 May, whilst visiting Mevagissey for my husbands 50th birthday so we had booked in advance and I'm glad that we did. The food was excellent, with the best sticky toffee pudding that I have ever had. The service was also excellent. A lovely restaurant in a lovely cornish village. We would... More

My mum and I dined here on the Sunday of the bank holiday weekend and they were fully booked. We started with some beautiful homemade bread and my mum had the baked brie to start which she really enjoyed, I had scallops which were cooked to perfection. For main course my mum went for the lamb chops which looked great... More

Salamander's owners managed to fit us in early on Saturday night, despite being fully booked. Thank you ! We loved everything about this quaint restaurant serving fantastically fresh, local produce. Fish of course was AMAZING!  I can fully recommend the hot crab pot to start, followed by the John Dory fish. Hazel, at front of house was a delight, as... More
