Started with drinks in the bar, then made our way to the dining room. Starters were mussels (salty morsels of goodness in a succulent broth best mopped up with the moist slices of bread) and squid (slightly over cooked). Our mains ranged from smoked haddock over mustard mash with creamed leeks, to prawn curry over rice, with an order of Seafood Ramen and a seafood stew in between. We all tried each dish and approved of every morsel (the plates were embarrassingly clean when we were done. You'd think that was a sign of full/satiated diners, but we decided to sample the rhubarb walnut crumble with custard for dessert, and didn't regret it. We were seated in a place where the kitchen crew was on display all evening, and that was entertaining and inspiring--very diligent/dedicated workers! I'd have to say that my only complaint was that we had to ask to get out water jug refilled twice rather than just relying on the wait staff to notice. This may be an American vs English issue though--they've still earned their 5 stars!

Almost everything has lobster in it, ie the name, and there is plenty of it. The food was so flavorful and plentiful. The only reason for 4/5 stars was I had the lobster bisque although good it wasn't as rich as I expected , had enough lobster and consistency reminded me of potato "bisque." I def recommend this place but make sure you make reservations. It is a small quaint place.

I may have found my Japanese food refuge in Birmingham. (See previous review of another Japanese…read morejoint for clarification). So I came here for lunch on a Wednesday and wanted to try it out to see if it was worth another visit, particularly with the hubs. This place is definitely nice, kind of "bougie" but not intimidating. I like that it's just a Japanese restaurant and not combined with other cuisines. My selection: spider maki (soft-shell crab rolls), and the lunch special of smoked (?) mackerel nigiri. I washed them down with a melon soda that I hadn't had in a loong time. It was tempting to try other sushi, but I have a soft spot for soft-shell crab rolls (say that three times fast). I'll come here again.

I had spotted a mention of Manchester Seafood in a Birmingham newsletter (I Choose Birmingham) a…read morefew months ago and had bookmarked it as a place to visit when I got a chance. I checked my emails in April and spotted that they were doing a Wowcher deal (2x 3 course meals with a glass of wine for £24), so I snapped it up and made a note to check the diary to see when we had a chance to check it out. We (me and my partner in crime, Dan G) put a date in our diary for a Friday in June and I gave them a ring to book. Speaking to them on the phone was a little confusing... The voucher had stated I had to book, but I was told on the phone not to book as they wouldn't be busy on a Friday at 7pm. Intrigued, we popped down last Friday to check it out and see if they were right. First thing to note is that it's a little hard to find if you're not too familiar with the area around the Arcadian. The venue is located on the opposite side of the road from the Ibis and in the middle of one of the alleyways. From the outside you can see the seafood tanks (with live lobsters, crabs, fish and eels for sale to the public), but they have a sign on the floor stating that the restaurant is inside. Go through the shop and you will come to a small eating area with a few tables and a bar. We were seated right away (they were right - there was only 5 other sets of diners when we went in) and our voucher was duly taken from us. We were asked if we would like to order any drinks (apart from our free glass of wine) and presented with their set course menus to choose from. It's worth noting that the venue provide free WiFi, which is great as it's a signal black hole in there. As I love seafood, we opted for the tofu and pork soup to start and 2 different kinds of crab dish for main. Dessert normally offers ice cream or fruit salad, but on this occasion they only had the fruit. The pork and tofu soup was A OK, but it was just an appetiser. The star of the show came in the form of two huge brown crabs (one fried with chilli and vegetables and one served in a ginger sauce). These were truly epic. You are given a nutcracker to really get into the shells, but you could taste the freshness of the crab. We had a giggle trying to not get too messy (impossible!) whilst we were snapping and cracking different bits to get to the delicious crab meat inside. I preferred the crab with chilli (although there was so many chilli flakes, the vegetables were a bit tough to eat without having streaming eyes and a runny nose). Dinner was finished with a plate of fresh melon coated with sugar (I have no idea why the did this), but we were completely stuffed after the crab. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout (they replaced our side plates which we had put bits of disregarded crab shell about 3 times during the meal) and we didn't feel that we were treated any differently because we had a voucher. The downsides are the decor of the restaurant (it's certainly not posh, but it is clean) and the fruit platter (we figured this would be more than just melon), but the amazingness of the crab easily outweighed these two negatives. If you like your seafood you can pop in and purchase crabs, lobsters and all sorts of sea based deliciousness from the shop. If you can't be bothered to cook these at home, however, a trip to Manchester Seafood's small hidden restaurant is highly recommended. Have the crab!

I'd spent the majority of the day with my good friend and we had been playing Dragonball Z Xenoverse 2. [Sidenote: Nearly at Super Saiyan stage!]. I'd hardly had time to eat anything other than a tuna sandwhich. The tuna in the can however was far too briney and it took me at least 5 minutes to drain it properly, of which I've penned a letter to John West but I digress. I entered the property and felt at home straight away. The host seemed happy to have us and although she was currently in her pajamas she was chatty and happy to listen to our drivel. She was currently making confectionary pieces but was very attentive. Although I had to make my own drink. We entered the entertainment area which would also turn out to be the eating area later on, had I known this I would have voiced my concern but I gave it a chance. The entertainment to begin with was pleasant, we exchanged stories and chatted about their 4 month old child. She was a bundle of joy. There was a cat and a dog present and they were not evacuated for the serving of the food or after, I will be contacting the correct people regarding this. A strange set up for a restaurant, you could go into the kitchen and speak to the chef as she was preparing the meal, still in her pajamas. I enquired as to why there was a 'massive pile' of vegetables in the frying pan and she replied saying it was for the curry. Well ladies and gentleman, I've never seen asparagus in a curry and no popadoms or naans to be seen. We also were not given a menu and it was assumed we enjoyed curry. The food was bought out, it was a tikka masalla on a bed of white rice, my hippie shippie partner asked for Cauliflower rice as she did not like endangering rice. I hate cauli rice. The curry was a burst of flavours and danced on the tongue like some sort of erotic display, it was as if my taste buds had gone to an exotic strip club and were currently being face hugged by a giant spicy vagina. It was wonderous. The bed of salad (of which I asked only for lettuce and the up until this point gracious host had refused to carry out the request) was lovely to cleanse the palet. I was left full and satisfied. However, halfway through the meal the host of the establishment decided to discuss 'pubes' and 'back hair' of which me, my fellow diner and my partner were all very shocked. The host seemed to lose herself in a flurry of laughter and from this point I had lost my appetite. Luckily I'd eaten all the chicken. We ended the evening playing some pleasant games and listening to music inspired by movies, some of which go back to the 1970s. Atmosphere fantastic. Hosts amazing. A good night had by all. 4/5 because she didn't put just lettuce on my plate.
