Description: Mallams is a long standing favourite of both locals and visitors since 1990. The restaurant is in an beautiful position with views of the bustling harbour.The Tudor beams and stone walls of the listed building have a traditional feel but are complemented by contemporary decor. The food is very definitely in the 21st century, an eclectic mix of ideas from Britain and around the world, always using the freshest and local produce. Seafood is much in evidence, as you would expect, but meat, game and poultry feature too.All this mixed with exciting wines and cocktails and friendly and attentive service and a really personal touch from the hands on owners make this a venue to remember. We are always happy to discuss your requirements for special celebrations, anniversaries, weddings, birthdays and we will be pleased to design a special menu just for you.NOW OPEN EVERY EVENING.

“A very enjoyable evening”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 May 2013 NEW

The atmosphere is very relaxing and there is great attention to detail. The Staff are very attentive and quick to notice when you require attention. As soon as we got up to leave our coats were brought to us. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and cooked to perfection. I am not a great lover of... More

“Perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW via mobile

Wonderful restaurant with exceptional food and service. Attention to detail and quality of drinks, wine, food and service were outstanding. We were recommended by a friend who said equally lovely things and we were not disappointed. My partner has several allergies and the owners and staff were so accommodating, they adjusted dishes and made a special sauce to accompany her... More

Thank you for your review of our restaurant. We are very upset that someone has felt the need to post such a negative review. As you can see from previous reviews the experience you had was very much out of the norm for our business. Perhaps you will be kind enough to contact us directly letting us know the exact... More

I'm a local, but I've been away a lot. For various reasons I haven't been to Mallams for a few months. I had forgotten what a stunning place it is: great location, classy service, fantastic food. Easy to recommend this restaurant. You should go...

“On the harbour”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 May 2013

Restaurant chosen having reviewed Trip Advisor as we were visiting Weymouth. Nice decor and great location on the harbour. Good choice of fish dishes. Only drawback was our table was in the back room and two of our party had constant 'traffic' behind them as the waitresses went back and forth and had to constantly squeeze by them. Pricey so...

“Good but certainly not worth the money”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013 via mobile

I found Mallams Restaurant to offer good food but at an extraordinary price. Service is excellent, location is excellent and ambience is excellent but the food (which was good) didn't really live up to the price or expectation. My £10 plate of scallops to start was nice but perhaps a little bland. The wife loved her goats cheese starter but... More

Thank you for taking the time and trouble to post your review. Naturally, we understand that the problem with your bill would have annoyed you as it would anyone, but it was a genuine mistake. The error was made because your wife chose from across the fixed price and a la carte, two different menus. Not a problem but unfortunately... More

Really cosy harbour side restaurant. We had fishcakes and cod that were delicious. The staff were really friendly and attentive; I also liked the relaxed atmosphere and that we weren't hurried along to eat although it seemed busy.

Fabulous. Wonderful. Scrumptious. Inviting. Welcoming. We came to Weymouth just for a meal at this fantastic restaurant. Yes folks it really is that good! From the moment you are gently ushered through the door to your table you are made to feel welcome. The menu caters for everyone from fish lovers like my partner to meat eaters like myself, and...
