Seaview Restaurant
North Yorkshire, Saltburn-by-the-Sea - Seafood - Restaurant - ££
Gaze over the monumental Victorian pier to the North Sea and the distant wind farms towards industrial Redcar with a glass of chilled Albariño – 'it really is an astounding vista,’ mused one reader. Local lad and owner Glen Pearson is fast establishing this beachside seafooder as one of the best in the area – there’s always a queue snaking down the promenade, summer and winter, seven days a week, for takeaways and seats on the open-air terrace with its incongruous palms.

Gaze over the monumental Victorian pier to the North Sea and the distant wind farms towards industrial Redcar with a glass of chilled Albariño – 'it really is an astounding vista,’ mused one reader. Local lad and owner Glen Pearson is fast establishing this beachside seafooder as one of the best in the area – there’s always a queue snaking down the promenade, summer and winter, seven days a week, for takeaways and seats on the open-air terrace with its incongruous palms. Once settled into the light, bright first-floor dining room with its vast picture windows, tuck into Thai fishcakes with wasabi mayo, fish-skin crackers with taramasalata or a salmon Scotch egg – ‘perfectly soft’, and set on a puddle of pickled fennel and dill hollandaise. Follow with seared sea bass partnered by mussel cider cream, ham hock and dauphinoise potato. King scallops might appear with squash risotto and a shower of truffle, but if it's colour you want, the roast halibut with squid bisque has it – and ‘an ocean of flavour too’. The availability of the Saltburn crab brioche, made famous by the BBC’s Remarkable Places to Eat, is dependent on 'what John (our fisherman) catches,' says the owner. The place is also famous for its beef-dripping fish and chips. A brief wine list starts at £22.50.
