What Northern Tourist likes about Seafood Grill:
The restaurant still does not accept reservations, but is seldom crowded at lunch time. The four of us sampled different dishes, The mussels were much larger than elsewhere and had a choice of two or three different sauces. The boulobaisse was exceptionally satisfying, the trout was excellently presented and prepared with a very generous portion. The service was quick, professional and accurate. The covid restriction...

Not what it was. Went on Sunday at four, service good, seafood good. I had grilled shrimp and vegetables. Shrimp was good, eight on plate but vegetables consisted of two small heirloom carrots and one sprig of sweet broccoli, not my idea of vegetables. Meal not balanced, very disappointed.

Despite mixed reviews, the Merivale Fish Market offers a range of seafood dishes that have impressed some guests and left others disappointed. Some customers have complained of inconsistent portion sizes and unbalanced meals, while others have praised the fresh and well-prepared food. Service seems to be hit or miss, with some guests reporting excellent service while others have experienced issues with staff. Pricing has been a point of contention, with some feeling that the restaurant has become more expensive post-pandemic. Overall, the restaurant seems to have a loyal following despite some recent slips in quality and service.
