Excellent service and food at the strand. Fresh seafood and reasonable prices for good sized meals. Our waiter Andrew was very helpful and friendly. The location is lovely and would be even better in summer to take in the view. I would highly recommend this restaurant especially for a special occasion

This was our second time dining here in the last few weeks. With great food, great service, great wine list and great views, nothing else is needed. Highly recommend!
We thoroughly enjoyed lunch at The Strand. The staff were extremely helpful and went above and beyond for our large group. Fantastic options for vegan/vegetarian/nut free customers. And picture perfect view! Can’t beat it.
It was my mother in laws birthday and we wanted it to be special. We went to the Strand and from start to finish it was so special. The service was impeccable with Andrew and Jeffrey taking care of us. The were so attentive and really looked after us. The meal was spectacular. My husband and his mum shared the seafood platter for 2 and both are very fussy when it comes to seafood. They both said that it was the best seafood platter they had ever had with the selection and freshness of the seafood. I had the lamb special that was very tasty. As it was her birthday they surprised her with ice cream and a candle to blow out. The chef also sent us a desert that was so tasty. I can’t speak highly enough of the food, setting, staff and we can’t wait to come back. A big thank you to Andrew, Jeffrey and the chef for making my mother in law feel so special. We can’t wait to come back x

Beautiful food and spectacular outlook! The food was a little slow to come out from the kitchen and everything was delicious and very well presented. The view of the city is second to none, you can’t compare it to any other restaurant... especially at sunset. They have 20% off wine on Fridays which was a nice surprise.
This place has great views over the water and the service is great. Food is amazing, especially the seafood dishes. Highly recommended. Located in a great part of Williamstown.
Very nice restaurant! We had a table next to the window, and the night view was beautiful. Looking at the beautiful beach and city view, enjoying our food and wine, good place for a date!
We ordered a seafood tower to share, and it comes with several different seafoods. It's enough for 2 people to share. We went there on a Monday night, so it was a bit quiet, there were only 2 tables for the whole night.
Had a great meal here on Friday night.
Food was beautiful, had the seafood paella to share, was more than enough.
Service was excellent on the night as was the booking follow up through this app.
Will definitely be back.
Had a lovely late lunch after our wedding. Meals were timed well and everyone was very happy with the food quality. Big windows allow for great views no matter where you are seated in the restaurant. Service was polite and attentive. We will visit again!
The best memories here. Always with family. My dad & mum loves it here a few years ago. We haven't really been back as they don't visit as often anymore. The lobster mornay is amazing here, also the price is reasonable. What more could you have with good views of the bay at Williamstown & some wonderful food. Service is great too.
This is the first time I had been to The Strand Seafood Restaurant, which is a little disappointing on my behalf considering I had lived in Williamstown my whole life. Better late than never right?
The most iconic feature The Strand has above most restaurants in Williamstown is its lovely view of the bay. I would imagine lovebirds would enjoy this view over a glass of Catalina Sounds Sauvignon Blanc to warm each others hearts.
We ordered a dozen Oysters Kilpatrick, which were warm and tasty. I'm not a big fan of oysters, but these were delicious. The 1/2 duck in master stock with Asian slaw salad and steamed jasmine rice was interesting, the master stock in which the duck was cooked in was a stroke of genius. Pouring its oily goodness over the rice and duck gave the taste that much more oomph for my taste buds... or was that more quack? On the side we got steamed green beans with bulgarian fetta and french fries for good measure.
I never really order oysters and duck when I'm at a restaurant, in fact, this is the first time I conjured up this combo, where in the past, I haven't been big on these rather popular dishes... and you know what? I loved it.
With a good-humoured and pleasant waitress serving us, The Strand comes highly recommended, even though it might be a tad too expensive for what you get.
Had anniversary lunch here. Deluxe seafood platter for two. Amount of seafood was just about right for two, as we finished up we were full. Combination of seafood on platter was excellent: great combination of flavours and tastes, not quantity over quality. Had a nice view of the waterfront. Prompt and friendly service.
Such a beautiful night. We ate here and everything was perfect, food and service. We had the cob loaf, then shared the paella and the chocolate brownie. Everything was amazing, thank you
The position of this restaurant opposite the Bay is fantastic. Staff were friendly and efficient and the menu was very comprehensive. We had incredible seafood platter which was generous and beautifully presented. One guest had a steak which was equally delicious. DEFINATELY recommend and will return when we can.
Amazing experience here tonight. Food was delicious and well presented. Had the cob bread, paella and chocolate brownie. Highly recommended. Service was fantastic as was the atmosphere at the venue. Will be back.
Well managed fine dining restaurant. Good oysters. Juicy meat dishes with al dente veggies. Extensive wine list ( I really enjoyed the Navarra, Spanish red wine). Delicious desserts too.
Make sure you book first, it’s very popular for a reason.
Also accepts Qoin 50/50
Service and location were brilliant. The food was fresh and well cooked, but not remarkable. Overall, an amazing option for a nice lunch in good company.
We were relieved to be dining on the first Saturday after lockdown. No time limits, gr8 service, beautiful marinara , the Cobb with olives, a good bottle of wine, all made it to be a memorable experience. Thanks
Lovely afternoon with friends, great view. Lovely meals enjoyed.
What an atmosphere, the stunning views, the friendly service and the food, well, on a rare occasion I find myself complementing the chef, but this indeed was "my compliments to the chef!"
The stunning presentation, the tastes, the experience, this took my palate on a culinary journey in which I could be on forever.
I was most impressed with the incredible wine selections in which complimented each dish I had.
I wish there was a 6th star to hand out.
I recommend anyone to experience this great place!
Compliments to the chef!
