Fish And Seafood · Nottingham
Seafood and Thai cooking under one roof, and a menu that rewards a bit of nerve — battered calamari, grilled oysters, garlic and white wine mussels, and a shellfish platter that families come back for over and over. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, and free parking takes one job off the list before you've even got out of the car. The staff get consistently good words: patient, quick to find a table even at busy times, and happy to swap a dish that isn't right without charging for it. Portions are generous. Worth knowing: the saver menu keeps a family meal reasonable while some of the à la carte creeps up, the Pad Grapao is genuinely spicy, and tables can get cleared a touch keenly — say so if children are still eating. Booking is sensible at weekends.
