5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2012 NEW

it was my partner's 60th birthday celebration and we went with friends and family to experience a truly wonderful evening at the Blue Ball. It was faultless in every sense and we will definitely go back probably for our 33rd anniverary. I would recommend the Blue Ball for anyone who wants to experience first class service and wonderful food. More

My partner had the monkfish and I had the ribeye, they were both disappointing!! Great ingredients, jst bad execution, both very under seasoned... Red wine jus.. Tasteless!!! And the sauce that came with the monkfish resembled a boil in the bag cod in butter sauce!! Mmm. On the plus side the staff were great and good atmosphere! More

We hadn't planned to go here, by default as the rest of the places we looked at were very poor, but the reviews from both Trip Advisor and Lonely Planet were good and we needed to eat. The menu was limited and had a bit of a 1980's feel to it, it's a long time since I've seen rice served... More

Tenby is one of our favorite places and we try to visit once a year. Our visit would not be complete for my wife and I and our three children without a visit to the Blue Ball which we have done over the past four years. On all occasions the food and service have been superb especially the help given... More

Still keep coming back after countless meals and never disappointed. Tonight was an introduction to Deb and Mel's new 2012 menu. The main meal of belly pork with pease pudding and wholegrain sauce was succulent and hearty.A special mention for the pease pudding,my nana would have been proud and as a northerner it's difficult to find such a true reminder...
