Reviews Overview

Most Liked

The variety of tapas is a standout feature; patrons rave about the chorizo in red wine and the delectable mini dessert platter. Many enjoy the casual, vibrant atmosphere that provides a perfect backdrop for lively conversations.

Friendly service and great attention to detail enhance the experience, with guests appreciating the warm welcomes they receive upon entry. Happy hour offers a fantastic chance to sample cocktails or selected beers at great prices, making it a local favorite.

High-quality food for the price also wins repeat customers; they often mention the generous portions as great value for money.

Most Disliked

Some guests express disappointment when items run out, especially popular dishes like the Gambas Pil Pil. The bustling atmosphere can sometimes lead to longer wait times during peak hours, frustrating some diners eager to enjoy their meals.

While most appreciate the outdoor seating, a few note that it can get chilly in cooler weather, limiting when you can enjoy the scenic views. Others mention that specific seating arrangements may not be ideal for bigger groups, so planning ahead is advisable.

A handful of reviews indicate that the exchange of menu items isn’t always seamless, so double-checking details may prevent minor disappointments during your visit.

Love this place, food always great and didn't disappoint today for hubby's birthday visit. Booked in for 12 moon and by the time we left it was fairly full. Had the usual and tried the mini dessert platter. They swapped creme brulee for chocolate fudge cake so shows you don't get if you don't ask. 5/5 PS forgot to take photo of food but here are 2 of our empty plates which sums up how lover the food is.

Had lunch with my bro here today and was impressed. Received a warm greeting upon entry. The food was excellent all round, the service was also friendly and efficient. Recommend the chorizo in red wine and the steak (so good!) but everything we ordered was piping hot and delicious. We weren’t rushed at all and had a long leisurely meal, with a couple of beers. The restaurant itself was clean and nicely decorated. I highly recommend Casa del Mar and will be back next time I’m in Hartlepool.
