Enjoyed a seafood paella for lunch on a recent visit. The food was sublime, and lots of options for any seafood lover.

My wife suffers with several intolerances and the staff were happy to help in this, ensuring we enjoyed a faultless meal.

We stopped by this restaurant by pure chance and fell in love with the place. The food is excellent, the ambience is ideal for family or romance, the staff are friendly and considerate and the design of the restaurant is modern but with a "fancy" look and feel. We were impressed with the overall experience and will almost certainly return again in the future.

An overnight business trip to Truro and looking for a place to eat found Hooked. Luckily it was a 2 minute walk from the hotel, it was a very cold evening so the short walk was appreciated.

Studying the menu, the attentive staff pointed out the specials, the choice of food was very good.

I don't eat Crab that often, I think the last time was when a friend was visiting her family in Cromer and bought back a couple, so for starters I went for the Crab taster, a hand picked Crab salad, Thermidor and Crab and Sweetcorn Chowder. It was very very good, my only observation being the Chowder could have taken a little more Salt, which I added myself. All three Crab dishes were really tasty, a the mixture of cold and hot was also a nice experience in on dish. The Crab was sweet and obviously VERY fresh, this was the start of a delicious meal.

For mains I went for one of the specials, 1/2 a Lobster, Crevettes and Scallops with a small green Salad and Frites. Oh my God, it was simple but really really tasty, suitable tools were supplied for digging every gram of meat from the Lobsters crevices 😀 It was awesome value for money and I was really please I went with this dish.

I don't eat desserts that often as I am Type I diabetic but my nurse says the occasional treat is fine, so I picked the 'HOOKED CREAM TEA"
Clotted Crème Brulee, Tregothnan Earl Grey & lemon Parfait with Rosé Jelly & shortbread.

What a fantastic finish to the meal, it wasn't too rich, the flavours subtle complemented by the textures of shortbread.

Hooked in Truro is a fantastic restaurant, the kitchen is open so you can see the Chefs at work, the staff are attentive but not over fussy, and the food was fabulous, I eat out quite a lot due to work and this sits at the higher end of my recent food experiences, it's worth a detour.

We ate here as a group of colleagues from work. The menu was filled with lots of choices with sea food to die for. The environment is chilled and the service was very good.
