Restaurants near Hardy Monument

We have been to Al Molo a few times now and are delighted we can bring our dogs, once of which has separation anxiety so we always need a dog sitter otherwise. We had the valentines menu and were able to order in and advance. We both had duck to start with my husband having lamb as the main and myself the monkfish. Desert was chocolate mousse for me and cheesecake for him. All the food was beautifully presented and so tasty. The chef is amazing. We felt it good value for money for a special occasion and the dogs were given water as well which is a nice touch. They deserve every award going down it was lovely to hear they had got the Bronze Dorset Tourist award (should have been gold). Apologies to any of the diners who were annoyed by Daisy having a little yap on the way in - her eyesight isn’t what it was and she gets a bit overwhelmed. She soon settles down. Thank you again for a wonderful evening.

Took my elderly parents for a meal at Olivettis as it was their 1st visit to Weymouth. Apart from not having a lift (which we were aware) we had the most comfortable seating and an amazing unhurried meal. Lovely caring staff - wonderful main courses (risotto) which were good sized and authentic. Loved the rocket and parmesan salad and the salmon was a good size. Drinks were also authentic and served with care and attention. Great for a sophisticated Italian meal and a relaxed conversation.

The roast dinner was amazing and the service brilliant. We went at 5pm which was quiet really.

I was very impressed with everything Will certainly be visiting again.

Really enjoyed the Cote breakfast on New Year’s Day. Excellent food, very pleasant and efficient staff - just a little noisy. This is as a result of sound bouncing off all the hard surfaces. We recently attended similar restaurants that have installed ceiling baffles that improved the noise significantly.
