Dinner Rick Stein Sandbanks Love going to this restaurant when we're down this way. Their Harbour view restaurant is modern with spectacular views. Starters Scallops Tempura Vegetables,were lovely with a very light batter. Mains Roast Troncon of Wild Turbot Dover Sole De-boned at the table. Desserts Baked cheesecake Hot Chocolate Fondant The food was nicely presented and very tasty A pleasurable visit yet again. It's a very busy restaurant so make sure you book. The prices seem to have crept up a little from our last visit. It's more affordable to go for their set lunch £27.95 If your staying local they have a complimentary pick up and or drop off home in their Mercedes Benz at weekends. Thumbs up if you find this useful.
