   Stunning views and outstanding food. We had the set A La Carte venue which was very good value for the standard of food served up. Excellent choice of options available and all produced using beautiful, and unusual ingredients. Would recommend!

   We had a great evening meal in The Kitchen at Gara Rock. The food was delicious and a good portion size and the service was friendly and attentive. Beautiful surroundings too.

   The menu was a small set one but each dish was delicious. The flavours were classic with a twist, the portions were good and each dish was beautifully presented. The crab fritter was one of the best starters we have ever tasted. The ravioli dish had lovely textures - puree, pumpkin seed crunch, pesto and delicate pasta. Would definitely recommend. Our server Tom was friendly and very attentive.

   Needs to focus on customer service - not letting people have snacks having walked from Mill Bay in the rain is not good for reputation

   We have been visiting Gara Rock for over forty years and watched it evolve. It saddened me today to find that the restaurant has become a formal dining area whilst casual eating has been moved to the bar area without views. Perhaps this needs rethinking as the main restaurant was completely empty whilst the bar was quite busy. It’s sad that gone are the days where you could sit in the main dining area and have afternoon tea or a snack and a glass of wine overlooking the beach below with your dog at your side. I think a number of regular locals will be lost as customers.

    The cuisine was elaborate and well created, however left the table feeling not totally satisfied.
