chicken liver pate was a bit of a hard block, but tasted ok. The main course of cod very good. The sea food salade starter looked good. Service good and friendly. Great location in the Marina

We went for lunch on a sunny Wednesday lunchtime. The restaurant was fairly quiet - but - the service was dire. We waited ages for our food - when we complained they comped us a desert saying there was a mix up but things did...not get better. The people on two tables arrived - were fed and left whilst we were waiting. And - the prices seem to have gone up for what is in reality Wetherspoons quality of food.This place just does not seem to be what it was like - think twice before risking your cash.More

We came in here quickly for a pre- cinema dinner and asked how fast they could do food. They instantly went to kitchen and put our order in and we had hot and tasty fish and chips within 10 mins! It was a generous piece...of fish and tasted great. They also offer 25% off the food bill with a Cineworld unlimited card which was great. The reason I have given 3 not a 4 is that the till wasn’t working and the staff were getting a bit anxious and grumpy around us (as we were near the till) which put me a bit on edge.More

Lovely food at very reasonable prices. It can sometimes be a bit tricky to please all the family but everyone enjoyed their meal and will definitely return.

Now known as the waterfront brasserie I went there on a Saturday evening to celebrate a 70th birthday. We had the upstairs part for the celebration. Scallops 1st course were brilliantly cooked although we did have them without the garlic as sometimes garlic can dominate...the scallops. The 2nd course I had tuna steak with creamy mushroom sauce which was absolutely delicious. I don’t like it very pink so asked for it to be cooked medium. It was lovely only slightly pink in the middle only but tastier than well done. Staff really welcoming and the chefs certainly know how to cook and will cook things how you want it. They are more than willing to respect the customer. The manager is very professional and oversees this restaurant. We will definitely visit it more frequently.More

Have eaten here lots of times, it seems to have changed hands/name and gone downhill. They don’t offer a set menu on a Friday lunchtime anymore so only a la carte. Food was fine and seemed fresh but crikey the waiting staff didn’t have a...clue what they were doing, unprofessional and totally disorganised. Spoilt a special family mealMore

Had a lovely day in the sun with friends eating outside. Food was great and waitress was very welcoming and good at providing food and drinks. Very rude at end of dinner saying that she will not receive any of the tips through the service...charge and we should do it separately, and made us feel quite guilty. Really disappointing as had been nice until.More

Great location overlooking all of the boats. A sunny day so we could sit outside. The service was great, the manageress was so helpful and friendly. Wine she recommended was also good. Food was fine, my only criticism is that they use a lot of...butter. We would come again to sit outside on a sunny day.More

A very UNenjoyable experience. We waited so long for our order to be taken that we had to ask. When our starters finally arrived, the Chicken Liver Pâté was dry and my Fish Chowder was tepid so I asked for it to be slightly re-heated...- even then it was a minimum palatable temperature. We then endured another long wait for our main course - so long that we eventually asked the whereabouts of our food. The waitress seemed confused - either by the English language or by the situation, or both - and said that, because our starter dishes were still on our table, the kitchen had not been told to prepare our main courses. The implication almost seemed to be that we should have cleared the dishes ourselves so the waitstaff would have known to bring our next courses. When those main courses did arrive, the Mussels Marinière tasted fine but the Cod Crème sat on a measly portion of mashed potato and its chive sauce was thin and tasteless. We then waited another long period for anything more to happen (all we wanted was the bill) so, becoming frustrated and having learned our lesson with the starters, I stacked up all our dishes and carried them towards the kitchen myself. This did prompt a response - the waitress eventually brought us someone's else's bill. Overall, this was a time-consuming disappointment. In the past, we have enjoyed eating at this restaurant many times but its recent changes of name (Fish Brasserie, Waterfront Brasserie and now Barracuda), and presumably management, seem to have brought on serious decline. The staff, especially, seemed disorganized, untrained and unenthusiastic. There are plenty of other restaurants in the marina and in Brighton - don't waste your time on this one.More

My partner and I frequently visit the restaurant, Saturday night we got there relatively early and the restaurant had a total of three tables. When our starters arrived, my prawns were in phylo pastry, were literally from Iceland. When our mains arrived, my meal was...incorrect, two minutes later I received my salad, which had a total of two slices of tomato, and the same amount of cucumber. There was meant to be balsamic dressing, to which there was none. Our first server a young girl was brilliant, the man who literally dumped my meal on the table didn't even offer us black pepper. When our mains were cleared he asked us if we wanted desert menus to which we said yes please, the one menu was literally just thrown on the table. After the desert we said could we please have the bill and the service charge removed. Our original waitress we had to call as we literally got ignored for a good length of time. We complained about the server in blacks attitude, paid our bill. On exiting the restaurant the said waiter frogmarched out after us demanding what he had done wrong, I in turn said, just look at the way your attitude is towards us, I think this should answer your question. Only then did the manager intervene assuming that a complimentary drink would solve the issue. In all my previous years of running restaurants in London, I have never encountered such hostility as a customer. I will never again recommend or visit this establishment again. Appauling is not even the word to describe the servers attitude. On reading other diners restaurants,reviews the said waiter is regularly mentioned!More

We visited this resturant on a saturday evening in Feb 2018. It was the least busy of the waterfront resturants for some reason. We received a warm welcome, great service and throughly enjoyed our food. The only down side, was that we visited on a...freezing evening in Feb and the heating inside the resturant was nowhere near suficient and we sat there in our coats/scarves. That was a shame. In saying that, we would return, but in the warmer months!More

Im sure the food was lovely, but as we were one of only 2 tables in the restaurant and sat watching the only waitress seemingly on her phone... A guy appeared who stoically ignored us.. She then pointed to us and told him to go...to our table.. He came over to take our order... The good would have come to over£40, but he couldn't really be bothered... Didn't ask about drinks, told us that the potatoes were dairy-free....er, except when I asked if they came with butter ! At that point, we lost the will to live and left!! Will pay more attention to the reviews, next time!!More

We visited this establishment with friends on 8th December. It seems to be now called Barracuda, having had a spell as The Waterfront Brasserie after being the Fish Brasserie for ages. But the staff are the same, most of the menu is the same with...the addition of more non-fish items and the ambience is the same - rather off-hand. I found my main course tasted fine but my wife complained that the mussels were tiny and broken after being assured that were of good size. Our friends dishes were over cooked and dry. Everyone's food was cold because it was served on cold plates but the manager, when called, was not interested. We were enticed in by a sign on the door that showed 5 stars under the words "Food Hygiene Rated" and text that said "Scores on the Doors" and "A Five Star Scheme". However, on going to the Food Standards Agency's proper Score on the doors site, we found that just a month previously, the establishment had been awarded a Food Hygiene Rating of 1 (Major Improvement Necessary) and the Food Hygiene and Safety was rated as 'Poor'. This deception could be very dangerous to anyone with a compromised immune system and I would urge others to think very carefully about what they might be eating there. Still, mine tasted good at the time!More
