A delightful little restaurant in Newborough. The staff and service were very good. The menu is excellent! There is a good choice of local and seasonal products. I recommend the surf&turf for two. A really nice and cosy place where I would definitely go again when we are in the area.

Just not sure about the liquorice pavlova at the end, but enjoyed the rest, the highlight being the pork dish. We had the 5 course tasting menu with an extra dish of mussels.

I was a little confused. From what I read online I expected a tasting menu experience, but got more of a tapas style one. We had two very good dishes (the courgette salad and lemon posset lollipop) but the others were mostly just ok. Wouldn't recommend the popcorn, it was too wet. I liked the vibe in the restaurant and saw a lot of good looking food going to other tables, so may have just ordered the wrong dishes. Overall given it a four cause I expected big things but left feeling a bit disappointed.

Had a lovely meal here last Wednesday. It was relatively busy for mid week but the staff were still really accommodating and informative making what we felt were honest recommendations. We started with a couple of oysters and then shared lots of other things like the pork belly special (perfectly cooked and seasoned right down to the veg with it and lovely sauces), the mussels with their famous sauce, the cauliflower three ways, and the mac n cheese. All were really delicious and flavourful. We had to add pepper to the mac n cheese and the bread for the mussels was unbuttered which were the only criticisms we would have about the food. The lighting was also very bright and fluorescent which was a shame as the ambience and lighting in their covered outdoor section was really nice. We just couldn’t sit out there because it was such horrendous weather! For pudding we shared the lemon posset lollipop which was really unusual it was more like an ice cream and had a nice chewy texture. It was also reasonably priced. All of this plus a bottle of wine, a coke and a tip came to £100 which we felt was a great price for the quality of the produce and the cooking

Came a few years ago & had a brilliant meal including fresh lobster. The restaurant has since rebranded as a popup for summer called 'Moch A Mor' featuring mainly small plates of seafood & pork.

The small plates were excellent. The cauliflower steak & the scotch egg we had were both really strong flavours with the curry. Was assured the Mac Cheese was also tip-top. Local craft beer from Wild Horse @ Llandudno was great to see rather than a bog-standard lager or old man cask beer.

Sadly the hotdogs as the larger plates were only okay, can you really do huge amounts with hotdogs at the end of the day? At £12.50 I hoped for more of the top of the line option to be honest.

Really strange that they don't do chips either, some aesthetics over basic enjoyment there. Didn't go down well with the three year-old we had with us either though the homemade ice lolly was pretty cool.

Fabulous meal at Moch y Mar, the Marram Grass' answer to dealing with the current social distancing rules. The restaurant is set up Al Fresco under a large fixed tarpaulin, with sheds available if the wind off the Irish Sea gets too much (they look nicer than they sound!). Friendly, efficient staff who were knowledgeable about the menu. Food was fantastic - amazing flavours, and a decent sized portion. Prices very reasonable for the quality of food. Can't wait to try the Marram Grass when it's operating normally again, and also looking forward to visiting Ellis's new Albert Dock restaurant, Lerpwl.

Amazing food and great staff. We got the basic £50 menu. The food was the right amount but it was a symphony of tastes. I will definitely come back here again.
