Really great food, fresh oyster, perfectly cooked seafood, and crispy fish and chips. My favourite was the mussels and sweet potato chips, freshly deep fried and super hot and crispy! Also make sure to try their chocolate foundant! The perfect dessert to end the meal with!
Review by @yarafoodie on IG. Absolutely loved our experience here. The seafood tasted incredibly fresh and the portions were huge from start to finish. We started with the king prawns in lemon butter and the calamari, which was easily one of the biggest calamari portions I’ve had in London and tasted so fresh. For mains, the fried cod with halloumi fries was amazing. The cod was perfectly crispy on the outside while still flaky and soft inside, and again the portion size was massive. The whole sea bass was cooked perfectly too, and was beautifully presented. The buttery baby potatoes on the side went well with everything. Desserts were just as good. The homemade apple pie was served warm with ice cream and tasted really fresh, and the chocolate fondant had the perfect gooey centre paired with pistachio ice cream. Great food, generous portions, fresh seafood and really good atmosphere. Would definitely come back.
We went to Seashell of Lisson Grove one weekday evening and tried a selection of dishes from their menu—from starters all the way to dessert. We began with bruschetta, grilled prawns (so good!) and whitebait—the prawns were definitely the standout for me, while the whitebait was a little too fishy for my taste. For mains, we went classic with their traditional cod & chips and also tried the grilled Dover sole with baby potatoes. The fish & chips completely stole the show. Fresh, flaky, meaty fish with an ultra-crispy batter—easily the highlight of the meal. We finished with a rich chocolate fondant paired with what tasted like pistachio (or almond!) ice cream The space itself is beautiful, service from Valeria & Jack was exceptional, and I love that they also offer a takeaway option if you’re on the go. If you visit—trust me, go for the fish & chips. You won’t regret it.
The food was super fresh and honestly some of the best fish and chips we’ve had in London. Everything felt really well done and generous. Service was just as good — Valeria and Robert were both so friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Would definitely come back with friends and family
Had a really enjoyable meal at The Seashell of Lisson Grove in Marylebone. The restaurant has a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, and the staff were friendly and attentive from the moment we arrived. I ordered the grilled cod with salad and grilled vegetables, and it was excellent. The cod was perfectly cooked, tender and flaky, with a clean fresh flavour that showed the quality of the fish. The portion was generous and nicely presented. The salad was fresh and crisp, providing a light balance to the dish, while the grilled vegetables were cooked just right, still slightly firm with a nice smoky flavour. You can really tell that the restaurant focuses on fresh seafood and good quality ingredients, which is something many reviewers also highlight about this place. The fish is known for being fresh and well prepared, with many diners praising the flavour and portion sizes.  Overall it was a very satisfying meal. If you are in Marylebone and looking for a reliable seafood restaurant with great fish dishes, this place is definitely worth visiting. I would happily return to try more from the menu.
