    For this calibre of restaurant I would have thought they would use fresh hand cut chips not frozen, it puts the quality of the dish down. Everything else was really good. We will return.

    We have been twice this week and the service on Wednesday was excellent but today (Saturday) it was patchy. Some things were too quick some were slow and the staff today generally seemed down and a little unhappy to be there.

    Great selection of wine to accompany some delicious seafood dishes. I had the SriLankan fish curry which was impressive. Service was friendly and professional. Certainly good value with some surprisingly low cost beverage options. Would definitely eat here again

    After moving overseas I haven’t been to Garfish for some years. It was great to go back and find it was as fantastic as I remembered. They always deliver - delicious food, excellent service and a buzzy atmosphere. One of my favourite places.
