    My wife and I chose this place for our last dinner in London before heading back home to DFW. I had…read moreread about this restaurant in some top 10 lists for foodies visiting London and was dying to check it out. First, it's not in the busy part of London where you would expect a restaurant of this caliber to be but rather it is in a very blue-collar neighborhood on the south side of London. It is a VERY cozy place with only seven tables but that is how they keep the quality and experience so great. The decor is as if you are on an old fishing ship. Reservations are highly recommended but we got there right when they opened (7pm) and thankfully they let us have a table. After being seated the hostess showed us the days specials and they ranged from fantastic scallops to lobster with every choice as good as the last. My wife and I chose the Chef's Choice 8 course dinner. The dinner comprised of a delicious sardine sandwich followed by a fillet of night perch which was then followed by lobster that melted in your mouth. Then we had a pallet cleanser of a light peach sorbet with a shot of vodka poured over it. The meal resumed with a grilled piece of pork belly (I got the "meat" choice) while my wife had a grilled hallibut (she got the "fish" choice). The next course was a warmed cheese (I believe it was gruyere) in pastry accompanied by a small mixed green salad with aged balsamic. The dessert courses were a delicious crepe with creme bruille filling and the end course was a pear puree along with a chocolate pudding with a hint of mint. We loved this place even though the name sort of threw us off at first. When you hear "The Lobster Pot" I imagine a bunch of seniors getting off a day-tour bus to a casino at a truck stop or something but this experience was far from what I first imagined. I would highly recommend spending some of your tourist dollars here at this restaurant.

    Don't arrive early or you'll be sorrier than a cracked crustacean's claw. Kitsch sticky menus…read moreneeded a bit of explanation and if the menus change regularly (no oysters , but I'd rather they'd be off the menu than off in my stomach) then perhaps daily printed menus would work. A delightfully decorative place complete with seagulls singing sea shanty classics on loop. Terrified but glorious goldfish adorning the cabin window walls, really every maritime detail had been thought of, even staff in cabin costumes, it was as cheesy as the lobster Thermidor. So fun. I loved being bibbed up too, I like knowing things are gonna get messy. The Meli, a melee of seafood; half lobster, sea bass, spicy grilled perch, razor clam (touch over done), squid kebab (could've been flavoured more) but all in a sea of buttery champagne and avruga sauce. No tide could hold me back from wanting to lick my plate or use this as a moisturiser, oh my golly so delicious. It came served with enough perfectly cooked veg that my mother would approve of too. Soft butter, less surprise from the proprietor at our arrival and this place would have had a perfect score. Overall our waitress was lovely and the food was really darn good.

    As you come out of Earlsfield Station its about 70 metres away. You look left and cross the road to…read morethe pub and then cross the busier one (Garratt Lane) and head left in Mitcham direction. I ordered Rock Salmon and chips to eat in. It was £9.70 but no extras and was perfect. Done fresh in 7 minutes, good flavour, texture. Chips were varied, one or two with some skin on, large and small. Again, good flavour. Service polite and unobtrusive. Pay at the till afterwards. Recommended.

    You get a complimentary plastic shot glass of fresh chips while you wait! This is clearly an…read moreexcellent idea and every time it makes me love the friendly, chip-proffering gentlemen even more. They know that when you order takeaway fish and chips you must be stomach-clenchingly famished and very tired. Marina Fish Restaurant is a smartly decorated, modern looking fish and chip restaurant. Before I called by, I had actually thought it was a fish restaurant in the broader sense, due to the name and the look of the place. Actually I think they are missing a trick in not offering a wider choice of fishy treats, as I'm sure there would be demand in the area, and it's good-looking enough for people to come for the evening and spend a little more on dinner. The takeaway is tasty, but a bit expensive. The classy cardboard boxes printed with the restaurant's name look good (a childish bit of me thinks 'ooh, fancy!' each time, and feels like I have gone up in the world, to be purchasing boxed London fish and chips as if it is a fancy fish and chips boutique) but by the time I get home the steam build-up has always made everything go a bit limp. I'd be happy to pay a quid less per portion and forgo the box and the lemon wedge.
