Wow!! Stunning views, the food was outstanding and the service was 10 out of 10. We had such a lovely evening. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere too. Well worth a visit.

Flew to Lee-on-the-Solent and heard about this place so had to try it out. A pleasant, short walk along the pebble beach and got seated straight away. Lunch menu was great. Recommend eithther the Coronation Chicken or Fish Finger sandwich, which we had. Staff were great and food was served quickly. Great views sat outside looking across the Solent to the Isle of Wight. Will definitely come back again.

Visited last week for an evening out as the Restaurant was doing an offer of a free bottle of wine with 2 meals.
We had a starter we shared, jerk chicken Tacos which were really nice.
My Wife had Mussels, she really loved this, a good size portion. I chose the fish & chips. Not overly impressed, the portion size wasn't great, literally just fish & chips with a pea puree which I thought was quite pretentious. Wish I had the burger which was cheaper and bigger.
Free bottle of wine made up for it tho, was a Pinot which would have cost about £20. So for a meal coating £45 Inc wine I can't really complain but would not have been happy to pay in full £65, too expensive for what it is.
Having said that the service was very good, staff were attentive and busy. This place has recently been refurbished and looks nice but Guys, you need to consider reducing your prices for Locals to return regularly. Thanks.

We came here for breakfast this morning. Very tasty sausage sandwiches and tea for a very reasonable price (given costs currently)! Lots of seating with a sea view!
Waiting staff were very friendly and helpful!
Highly recommend and would definitely come back.

On the table next to us, there was a couple who were being extraordinarily fussy and rude about their baked beans, including threatening the waiting staff with bad reviews. The waitress stayed polite and professional throughout, offering to help to try to resolve the problem despite their behaviour. Needless to say, the couple 'managed' to eat their 'below par' baked beans (which looked fine to me!!)
Fantastic staff, working hard on their bank holiday. Perhaps some customers should either stay at home to eat their baked beans, or be grateful that they're in a position to be eating a meal out on the bank holiday, rather than working.

It was a lovely sunny October, yes sunny October, day on the South Coast of England. Lee on the Solent to be exact. We went to On the Water as it held memories for our elderly neighbour who we had brought out for the day. We'll, it didn't disappoint. Great food and yet another restaurant able to deliver an awesome gluten free menu. Service was spot on. Thanks. Have already revommended it to family.

This restaurant has made a great turnaround from when I visited it a year ago. The food was great the staff attentive and Charlie the assistant Manager (who should be the manager btw :-), ran a tight ship. The staff were attentive and friendly, I will be recommending On The Water to all my friends and we will certainly be back
