The Qube Restaurant, Tenby

For years, our family friends the Charnocks, had the Pam Pam Restaurant in Tenby and I could never imagine it as anything else, but now it has been updated and taken over by a young local chef and is renamed the Qube Restaurant. It is right in the heart of the town square in Tenby with seats outside in the daytime.

We booked a table for my husband's birthday and the girls were looking forward to it as we had had a good meal there last year.

We were greeted by a really friendly, cheerful waitress who continued to look after us all very well. The decor is still in need of a bit of a revamp but this did not spoil our evening in any way.

We ordered a mussels in creamy sauce to start and Jon ordered king prawns. Both were totally delicious and suffice to say that having had mussels in at least 6 Tenby restaurants this trip, these were the best by far.

We ordered main courses as follows (kids meals are available and are actually free if you eat between 5 - 6 pm but it was a special treat and the girls went "grown up"): Whole lemon sole with butter for myself, Sea bass for Jon, braised lamb shank for Immy and the grilled salmon steak for Scarlett. They were all good - the lemon sole was moist and tasty and Immy managed to finish her entire lamb dish. The sea bass was a little misleading - we thought it was a fillet but came out in a puff pastry case - a bit like a giant vol au vent! It tasted Ok though and there were plentiful amounts of sides to accompany. The garlic potatoes were a little disappointing - the garlic clearly had not been cooked through but it was not a big problem.

We had a thoroughly nice evening (despite the lashing rain!) and although pricey (between £6 and £9 for a starter and £12 to £18 for a main) this was probably the best food we had in Tenby during our visit, along with Bar 10 which I will review separately.
