Slightly bleak, distant lady in charge here. But the breakfast was decent. You can compile your own breakfast from the menu. So I had two fried eggs, black pudding, tomatoes, mushrooms, and brown toast. It was beautifully presented, the highlight being the tasty little red and yellow tomatoes, cooked just right. The fried eggs were a bit hard, though, which is often the way. With a cappuccino and a tea, price was £12.00 odd.The ethos of the small unit was Italian, though without Italian friendliness. The look of the place was good, but the floor wasn't that clean and the table felt a bit sticky. In any case, I left happy with the breakfast and fuelled for my hike.

Came across Cantina purely by chance, looking for shelter on a very wet morning in Ventnor. Ducked in to ask if they were dog-friendly, and thankfully they were. Really wished we hadn't eaten breakfast beforehand - because I would have LOVED to have eaten there. The food on the tables all around us looked and smelt DIVINE. Enjoyed some delicious coffee though. The service was wonderful (the two of us - plus our four-legged friend were made to feel very welcome) and the place has such a lovely ambience/vibe. Next time we're in Ventnor we'll be going back there for sure, but this time with empty tummies!

We went here to celebrate my birthday and were anticipating a good dining experience. Sadly, this was not to be. My wife's starter ( crispy egg) was fairly bland and dull, with some extremely salty black pudding. My cheese souffle was leaden rather than light & fluffy, and didn't taste of much. I had lamb for the main course, and had to scrape the salt off the meat to make it just about edible. Ridiculously oversalted. My wife couldn't eat her fillet steak for the same reason. Don't bother with the side orders - they were similarly unpleasant. The wine was tolerable but not great. We were so disappointed we didn't bother with deserts. To be honest, I think I could have had a better meal virtually anywhere in Ventnor, and at a much lower cost. When paying over £100 for two starters, two mains and 1 bottle of wine, I expect a nice meal. I'm afraid neither of us got one. We won't be back....

The Met is about relaxation, quality tapas and fine drinks; bringing a little of the Mediterranean to the beach-front at Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. Enjoy a taste of our continental style hospitality outside in the sun on our paved seating area overlook

We visited this restaurant today and was not impressed at all. Waited for 45 minutes for our meal when the place was empty. what were they doing going shopping for the ingredients!! Service was awful and the table was dirty. Very expensive for what you get. We had visited last year and the service was better,has new owners taken over? Anywhere donât go there,itâs not worth it my husbands cream tea turned into a cheese scone which the waiter handled it without tongs!
