Very disappointed by Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant. Meal started off well, but main courses (which were pricey, £35 each) were poor - one of them was inedible first time out the kitchen, we sent it back and it wasn't much improved the second time round. The chef agreed it had been "badly cooked", but apart from suggesting that he keep everyone else's food on a hot plate whilst we chose something else, didn't do anything to make up for the poor meal (e.g. free pudding, or glass of wine on the house). We won't be going back. They obviously rely on enough passing trade that they don't have to impress people into going more than once.
