Quick info
About Tinel Seafood & Grill Restaurant
Tinel Seafood & Grill Restaurant is a family-run Portuguese restaurant and steak house on Wharf Road in Grantham. The kitchen centres on seafood, with prawn dishes, clams served as a starter, and a squid and prawn skewer offered as a main, alongside a monster platter for two. The chef also prepares pastel de natas in house, and sangria is served alongside the food. A private dining room sits at the back for groups. Tables are released by reservation, and the food is prepared fresh, which leads to a wait at peak times.

Customer Review Summary
Diners return to this family-run spot chiefly for fresh, expertly cooked seafood, with prawn dishes, clams, a squid and prawn skewer, and the shared Monster platter singled out across visits. The chef-owner earns repeated praise for cooking fresh food to order, and several reviewers describe the service as warm and personal, from accommodating dietary preferences to looking after a large anniversary group. Pastel de natas prepared in house also draw a specific mention. The honest caveat is the wait that comes with everything being cooked to order, which reviewers frame as worthwhile rather than a problem, and one diner flags the cost of fish as expensive, calling the meal valuable but not cheap. Multiple reviewers note the restaurant is closing later in the year and urge others to visit before it does.

“Had a superb meal here. The chef and staff were lovely. We ordered 2 different prawn dishes for starters and the Monster platter for 2 as main All the food was outstanding, best we have ever eaten. Fresh seafood cooked to perfection. As the food is all prepared fresh, there is quite a wait but well worth it. Shame this restaurant is closing later in the year. Will be a big loss to Grantham.”
