Harden's survey result
Summary
Near the seafront in Southampton’s Ocean Village Marina, this modern venue inspired positive feedback across the board in this year’s annual diners’ poll. In September 2024, though, it ‘temporarily closed’, with its Facebook promising: “after 4 wonderful years… the restaurant will temporarily close, this marks the start of something even better! When the restaurant reopens, a refreshed Blue Jasmine will make your experience even more memorable”. So we will watch this space.
Summary
An “excellent culinary experience” is again reported – if on quite limited feedback – at this very contemporary four-year-old venue in Southampton’s Ocean Village Marina. Chef Daren Liew – whose CV includes Hakkasan – aims to create ‘Asian gastronomy that’s been elevated to fine-dining standards’.
Summary
This relative newcomer (est. 2019) by the water at Southampton’s Ocean Village Marina serves “excellent Southeast Asian fusion food, in a very nice atmosphere with excellent service”. Executive chef Daren Liew (formerly of Hakkasan and Duddell’s of Hong Kong) has created a range of signature dishes, led by his play on Peking duck flavoured with Sarawak black pepper from the forests of east Malaysia.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

"Very pleasantly surprised. I don’t give out 5 very often. Beef main dish was so full of flavour, probably my favourite dish this year."
