Description

A restaurant offering a mixed experience: delicious food with some unavailable dishes, friendly staff, and reasonable prices but inconsistent quality. The atmosphere was tainted by loud music for some, while others found it fabulously fun. One reviewer highlighted the stunning seafood laksa and exceptional staff, while another praised the salmon gravadlax as a standout dish. Overall, a beautiful setting, varied drink selection, and lovely atmosphere were common positives among reviewers, with only a few complaints about service and availability of dishes. An interesting and varied place to try, with some standout dishes worth experiencing.

If you're not a fan of seafood, this restaurant might not be the best choice for you. Situated on the second floor, it offers stunning views. The service was outstanding and quick. The steamed mussels were tasty, although the broth was a tad salty - a plus for salt lovers. The Fish and Chips were amazing, featuring perfectly cooked fish that was light and piping hot. The crispy coating had great flavor without being overpowering. Despite feeling full from the mussels, I made an effort to finish it all. The tangy sauce served with the fish was delightful, possibly tartar sauce. The pea puree could have used a bit more salt. Despite being full, I couldn't resist indulging in the Creme Brûlée for dessert. It was a small but satisfying way to end my meal.

The restaurant experience was a bit inconsistent. The mussels were delicious, but the dumplings were not flavorful. However, the cottage cheese and potatoes were quite satisfying. The Caesar salad was very underwhelming, but the dessert was exceptional. In general, the experience was a bit of a mixed bag. The service was prompt and friendly, and the prices were reasonable.

I was blown away by the incredible flavors and innovative dishes at this restaurant. If I could, I would give it more than 5 stars. I would definitely go out of my way to have another amazing dining experience here in my city. The prices are fair, the drink selection is impressive, and the views and seating options are fantastic.

Electric is a interesting 3-1 combination. There is a bar on the first floor, the second floor is the restaurant but there is also a fish bar up there as well. Depending on what you are looking for this space can probably meet your needs. Our first time here we stayed at the bar. We made reservations and decided to grab a drink. They have a good drink menu and they make a passable drink. I had their mojito and it was good, but not the best I've ever had. The bar was quite though and we were able to grab a seat right by the river. When we came back the next night there seemed to be live music, so you are sure to get whatever you want here (quiet or lively). We enjoyed the restaurant quite a bit. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. It was quiet enough you could hear each other, but it didn't feel dead. We also could see out on to the river from our table which was nice. The food was stellar. My husband raved about how good the fish was that he had. This place specializes in fish, so I'm not surprised. I went with the beetroot ravioli. I love all things beets, and when you add cheese and spinach I'm done. It was very well cooked and was very filling. I was quite happy with my choice even though it wasn't a fish dish. I went in slightly apprehensive about bringing my mom here (it seemed a little young and hip for her), but it was a standout for all of us in the end. Great place that can meet any dining need. 91/100

If you're craving fish and chips, this is the spot to go. I had an early dinner here yesterday and started with the crab claws starter, followed by fish and chips. For dessert, I enjoyed the crème brûlée. All of the dishes were fantastic, but the fish and chips were definitely the standout. The service was quick and friendly.
