As the name suggests, Moules a go-go is famous for its mussels, fresh from the shores of Anglesey, served in a variety of ways from simple Moules Marinieres to Korean. The vast selection of seafood dishes ranging from traditional fish and chips to scrumptious Sea Bass is impressive, though equally appealing are the locally sourced juicy steaks . After 17 successful years in business amongst tough competition, Moules a go-go is still going strong, boasting superb food and a great atmosphere in contemporary yet comfortable surroundings. The head chef and manager have been there since the restaurant’s inception; such longevity is a rare blessing in the tempestuous world of the steaming kitchen, but this dedication shows in the consistency and quality of the food and service. Moules a go-go is a real find in the heart of Chester's history.

As usual the Opera Grill delivers in its outstanding dining experience. With a multitude of excellent dishes to choose from, produced by the chefs to an outstanding level. Then delivered to the table by the attentive staff. Ensuring your meal is to your satisfaction without being over attentive. It so much reminds me of my favourite hotel the East in Hamburg. Once again well done Team Opera Grill, I'll be back!

Another fabulous meal at the Chef's Table, the food is always spectacular and the service warm and genuinely friendly. Lobster tail to start with Venison marinated in sloe gin as a main finishing with Christmas pudding was a great way to start our Christmas. Thank you Liam and the team, you are a magician!!!

We have gone to Moules at Christmas for over 10 years (we can’t remember exactly how many years!) and each time there are different staff but they are always fantastic! Food is the same, always spot on. You have to try the Thai Mussels! Thanks to all at Moules for another great start to Christmas Eve!
