Jack was excellent from start to finish during my job search. Before looking for any roles he phoned me up to find out a little bit more about me and ask what I was ideally looking for from my next role. He even helped tweak parts of my CV. Jack was swift with his responses and would always phone after interviews which was a nice personal touch. I will refer Jack to any friends looking for new employment.

As soon as we walked in we were pleasantly surprised, the decor is classy but comfortable, not stuffy at all. Friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, good location near Gorey Pier (under 10 mins walk). Simple and relatively short menu but I wanted almost everything on it, lots of fillet steak and seafood. We were served another tables food but the staff were natural and friendly enough for it not to be an issue, only complaint was the cooking of the fillet steaks of which we had 4 on a table of 7, not one was cooked as requested. We ranged from 1 blue, 2 medium rare and 1 medium. All came well done, one nearly dry. The wine list was priced ridiculously, cheapest bottle was about £16 for an average white, which took would should have been an excellent £40 meal up to £50 per head. All in all a good evening, question the value for money slightly but will go back.

What a fantastic restaurant - great decor, great service, great staff, great wine and great food. The bill was not a problem for us! A shared starter, 4 main courses, 3 desserts, TWO bottles of sparkling wine, 2 soft drinks, 2 liquers and 3 coffees and all for less than £40. Absolutely excellent. Its just a shame I live in Bromley otherwise I would be eating there every week - my father, who lives on the island, will be flying the flag for me. Well done to everyone involved in the running of this restaurant. And thank you for the experience.

we found the staff to be very pushy /intrusive and were constantly interupting our dinner and conversation to try and sell us more drinks. this spoilt the atmosphere for us. they were probably told to do this and might even be on commission, but this is not what we expect from an expensive restaurant (no fixed menu on a friday night)
On that basis I could not recommend the restaurant, or return. The menu offered a range of food and the presentation and quality was very good - what a shame that the staff spoilt our evening

Booked a couple of days in advance and had to take an earlier table as they were busy. Great choice on the 2 course set menu for £15. Food, wine and service was excellent. Quiet when we got there but within 45 mins the place was packed and this was a Tuesday night. Definately book in advance

I have now been twice to the Bass and Lobster (first time was last summer). The food was fantastic, my wife went for the special deal menu which is probably the best value for money on the island and I had one of the daily special on the board. Everything was spot on, seasoned to perfection and you could tell the seafood was top quality. The only downside is that although the restaurant was quiet the second time, the waitress didn't seem to want to speak or even smile to us. A real shame because we had a great chat with another lady and even the chef last year. A definite winner, make sure you keep some space for dessert!

What a great place. I have been twice this year to Jersey, specifically to dine, and this place beats the rest. We visited in August and have just returned.
The food produced here is packed full of taste and attention to detail. Scallops are on every menu in Jersey but none are as well prepared or presented. The menu is everything you would expect from a 'Gastro Pub' at great value. It allows you to eat anything from a Burger to a Fillet Steak, providing everyone with options, but when it comes to the table it comes with love and attention. Its clear passion is involved from the Chef and his team.
Just a great place to eat - go there, but book first they are always busy

Ate at the Bass and Lobster for the first time a few weeks ago. The tempura king prawns were stunning. Wish I could eat there every night. My friends had the sea bass and brill - they also adored their meals! My new favourite restaurant on the Island!
