The Seashell of Lisson Grove

This restaurant serves the perfect piece of fishIt has people constantly coming through it's doors which in itself is a great recommendation.

Feeling at home when you walk through the door. Friendly staff. Great food.l and excellent customer service. Thanks Liliana and compliments to the chef.

A dreadful disappointment! After our long awaited reservation, the anemic chips, soggy fish, ghastly mushy peas, etc., we will never return to the abhorrent Seashell!! Voir le carte

Travelled a long way with high hopes, only for them to be dashed by soggy chips. Fresh fish, although the batter was soggy. We would rate it a 6/10 (at a push). If you want to have 9.9/10 fish and chips then try number 5 on the “Time Out” list.

What a shame! This used to be THE fish chip shop we used to hold events there as it’s reputation was amazing but my, how it’s changed. Wrong order, twice, waiting time horrendous, and the food was awful. We don’t even think the cod was cod thin tilapia more like. Very disappointing indeed.

Much better than the last couple of visits. Hard working staff and much better quality of food. Still looks a tad sad compared to the days when it was more buoyant and with a least two sittings. Still find it odd how they still think that chilling a bottle of wine entails plonking it on top of some ice. Voir le carte

Stopped off for an early dinner around 6:30pm. Ordered sausage and chips and mushy peas. Sausage old and flabby, chips tasteless, mushy peas OK. Shambolic service, three staff just hanging about aimlessly, had to wait a good while for the food after paying even though only a few customers and the chips and sausage were ready, just nobody arsed to serve it! Shocking how bad this place has become as it used to be the best. Better off to go to The Golden Hind in Marylebone Lane which is far superior.

Curious place. I had some fish and chips with mushed peas. I think that the fish was crispy and the chips had a satisfying potato flavour. However, despite the seemingly high-quality ingredients, this did not jive with me. Maybe fish and chips simply is a dish that doesn't lend itself to excellent culinary experiences? Maybe it's just me who can't appreciate an otherwise terrific dish? Either way, I would hesitate to eat here again, especially when taking the steep price into consideration. The mushed peas were not good. They tasted like overboiled peas that were mushed coarsely without seasoning or additives. At least it lived up to its name.

Sadly, after many years of visiting this establishment, our visit on 11th November 2023 was shocking. This was our first visit since the Coronavirus Pandemic, we arrived at 9.41pm after travelling a long distance for what has always been a monthly treat (pre Pandemic). The people serving were not at all pleased to see us, we placed our order including a fishcake on it 's own (I have a receipt to prove it) the lady who took our order was asked to confirm our order by the chef, he shout angrily and aggressively at her No Fishcake . She then came to us and said, sorry no fishcakes but you can have anything else , we reluctantly ordered a portion of Calamari. The woman who appeared to be in char... Voir le carte
