Had chicken tacos from their street food menu and it actually tasted like street food that you would get at a cool restaurant in London or Berlin, not the reheated fast food street food you normally get on the island. The chicken was fresh and the flavor was interesting and great. It also came with a nice combination of four salads (including tomato and mozzarella and a cous cous salad). Finally, rather than throwing chips at you, it included some beautiful sauteed potatoes. Overall, a great lunch.

What was quite telling is that when we finally did find it, the restaurant was full and we had to book to come back an hour later for lunch. Nice option, combining comfort food with fresh, presumably local, ingredients. I started with broccoli stilton soup. The broccoli came through and it had a nice consistency though I could not really taste the stilton. For my main, I had chicken kiev. Large piece of chicken and the garlic butter definitely had enough garlic. Came with good fresh vegetables and nice chips. My son seemed to enjoy the chocolate cake. While the service wasn't fast, it was very pleasant. We plan on going again.

I got a ox cheek benedict with a srircha hollandaise that was both interesting and nice. Instead of a muffin it was served on a waffle, which I did not realise on the menu, but over time I warmed to it. My daughter had great looking scrambled eggs on toast and my son waffles with caramel sauce. The hot pot beef looked great at another table and prices are very reasonable. Would definitely go again.

I've updated the name to Port Erin Chippy & Diner. Perhaps it has new owners. Same location but…read moredefinitely updated decor. Considered by many we spoke to on the IOM to be the best chippy we decided to try it. It was great and the best we have been to so far. Mushy Peas and Gravy were outstanding and the Cod delicious. There was no Haddock when we went. We arrived right on opening time 11.30am as did everyone else and the dining part was full in minutes - all adults. Lovely bright blue interior. Service is at the counter - and order came minutes later.

There aren't a many tables inside and you'll leave smelling like the chippy bit nothing's better to me than HOT fish and chips, so I'll sacrifice and smell for the night :) You can't go wrong with the cod fish and chips, and the sausages are good too. I love the curry sauce to dip those delicious chips into, along with malt vinegar. The service has always been quick, and the price is certainly right! I can't say enough great things about this chippy, I wish we had a comparable concept here in the states.

It was good and reasonably priced, but the food was not life changing. Started with very good garlic bread, which was served like a pizza crust with an excellent almost spicy tomato based dipping sauce, strongly recommend. The antipasto was also a nice starter, with many olives (I don't olives but a friend said there texture was too tough), peppers, salami, ham and artichokes. I had chicken parmesan over spaghetti. The chicken was good and the sauce was relatively complex but the chicken was not flattened as I like in many good parms. The restaurant was also very hot, which made it a little less than perfect. Overall, a restaurant I would go back but not overly memorable.

The pizza was some of the best we have had with a thin crispy crust, fresh toppings and plenty of flavor. They will also drizzle or soak it in garlic butter upon request. My nephew suggested we try it soaked in the garlic butter and he was right. It was delicious. The ambience is old style Italian and the service was top notch. Efficient and friendly describes it best. There is plenty of seating upstairs and down but I would still recommend reservations at this little gem as it was packed when we were there. Especially, if you are visiting during busier Times such as summer or TT week. One last note, the owner is a kind, friendly, happy man who does a precious 'magic' for the children at the end of their meal if they eat everything. All around a great experience.

Definitely make a reservation ahead of time. We didn't have one, so we were told by the hostess…read morethat we'd get the less desirable seats in the house. We were put in the very rear by the back door, which, when opened, occasionally required us to get up from our seats to let someone in. My pasta was great, the garlic soup was AMAZING (I've never heard of a creamy garlic soup with pesto drizzle before but now I pretty much wake up dreaming about it), and my boyfriend loved his personal pizza. The lattes we got for desert were too huge and watery. Had difficulty finishing them, and they weren't very good. The only thing that has room for improvement, though. The customer service was great (a well-spoken foreign exchange high school student was our waitress), and Leonardo himself initially took our order and stayed a while by our table, talking boisterously and cracking jokes. He was an amusing character. We wanted to come back once more, but time did not permit us to.

I had the pickled burger, a burger with pickled onions and gherkins. Square patty that was particularly tasty. It was thin and got dried out when cooked.
