AVOID THIS PLACE! If you want your reservation mysteriously…read moredisappeared, or if you enjoy dressing up for dinner only to be turned away at the door -- this is the restaurant for you. We called at 8:30 PM to ask if there were any available tables for the night. The guy on the phone clearly confirmed two options: 9:30 PM and 9:45 PM. I even asked if 9:30 was the earliest available, and he confirmed it was. I then confirmed the 9:30 PM reservation, to which he replied, "See you later at the restaurant." When we arrived -- 15 minutes early, by the way -- and told the host about our reservation, he looked completely shocked. He denied ever receiving a reservation call. I showed him my call log (see attached screenshot), which clearly shows we called the correct number. He admitted he was the only man working the phones and that it was indeed the right number -- but still insisted no reservation had been made. Even though the restaurant had empty tables, he refused to seat us, was incredibly rude, and paid us no attention while continuing to serve others. No apology at all. No effort to resolve anything. Just left us standing there. Absolutely absurd and laughable experience. Never again.

The success has come from their commitment to top quality food. I can live with that. They also always have great offers on such as the one they have on at the moment; Dinner and wine for two at £30 from sunday-thursday. That's a two course dinner, and I'd suggest the Scottish smoked haddock and the cold poached salmon. However whatever you chose is likely to be top notch as mentioned. Loch Fyne is what I would consider to be one of those safe bets when you are out dining. The Wirral has one and it is arguably one of the best restaurants in the region.

I had an awful fish & chips dinner in London last week so he brought me here to make up for it as he says they're the best he's had so far in the UK. Let me tell you that it lived up to the hype.

We had started with an octopus starter from the specials menu which had lovely fresh flavors and my husband enjoyed the squid ink risotto which was also delicious. Cute place and nice staff.

However, those brave enough to go down the pokey back road its on will find themselves rewarded with a lovely dining experience, complimented by helpful and friendly waiting staff as well as delicious cooking using locally grown ingredients. As I said, Forge advertise themselves primarily as a fish restaurant, so it's no surprise to find their menu dominated by fish and other seafood dishes. I'm not a big fan of seafood generally but I love fish and have found some of the dishes at Forge are both interesting and tasty, such as the halibut steak and the grilled Dover sole, which although expensive is worth the price. Aside from seafood and fish dishes, their meat menu is similarly impressive as it boasts a good variety of options including roast duck as well as a good range of different steaks. The restaurant may not be in the best location in Southport but it's worth putting that to one side and giving Forge a go, particularly if you're a seafood and fish fan.

Prebook in advance to avoid disappointment!…read more I booked this for our anniversary meal. Despite turning up on time we had to queue outside for at least 25 minutes with several others waiting for people to finish their meals. Once inside the waiter was super apologetic, and you could tell he needed a drink himself. The restaurant was very cosy with interesting pieces of art on the walls. A nice very traditional feel about the place. Anyway the starters consisted of various seafood and meat dishes to which you can size up as a main on average pricing of £7 to £15. I had the pork cheeks and himself the clam spaghetti. While we waited we were presented with canapés consisting of cheese and carmalised onions..the other truffle oil on crackers. These were a very tasty treat. The spaghetti was well made and the sauce light smothering the tiny clams. My pork cheek was super tender, and it lay perched on perfect mash, panchetta, black pudding, pickled onions in a tomato broth. Various bits of bread was also served to mop up this juice. Only criticism clam meat is sooo small in this country so not worth the battle against the shells for such a tiny reward. For mains I had the seafood special which was a bowl filled with mussels, clams, scallop, king prawns and longuistines swimming in a broth and fresh pasta. This was super tasty, cooked to perfection and presented nicely. My only gripe was I only had one at most two scallops. My other half chose the lamb which again was super tender, in a homely bed of mash, sauce and root vegetables. Super simple dish but everything was cooked perfectly. I was feeling quite full but the orange panacotta with orange sorbet was too tasty to miss. It didn't disappoint. Overall despite the disappointing beginning the service was impeccable and food really tasty. However I did expect a bit more in terms of creativity considering this was a Michelin star restaurant. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy your seafood especially.

The menu contains a fusion mixture of Chinese, Japanese and Thai, and everything seems cooked to the highest freshness and quality. I really love the Sushi platters they serve, the deep fried sushi and the Bento Boxes. The Bento Boxes offer real value, within them you get noodles or rice, served with a choice of one of the meat or vegetables in sauce, three pieces of mixed sushi, a side bowl of salad and some tepura vegetables..all for under a tenner. East Ocean also does stunning thai curries, and most other types of Asian food, and although there is an emphasis on seafood, those who dislike it need not be wary - there are plenty of meat and vegetarian dishes. I also really like the interior of the restaurant, it's modern and light, with a water feature that gives a classy yet exotic feel. All in all, I rate this restaurant highly. The waiting staff are always very polite and very attentive and you even get some prawn crackers to snack on!
