Really, really good experience all around. Food came out very quickly, though we were in early. Very cute décor, decent seating arrangements. Staff were very nice and very attentive. Boyfriend ordered a rib-eye and was very impressed with what he got, cooked to his liking and had a good portion size. I ordered the chicken fabulous, was cooked really well, very juicy and was stuffed well. Entreés were also very good, with fresh garlic bread and delightful arancini balls. Drinks were also very good, they were not stingy on the alcohol content of the mixed drinks. Would highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Prem's Seafood Bar & Grill, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of incredible. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff who greeted me with genuine warmth. The menu at Prem's features an impressive selection of seafood dishes, expertly prepared and beautifully presented. Each plate that arrived at our table showcased the kitchen's commitment to quality and freshness. The portions were generous without being overwhelming, offering excellent value for the price. My personal favorites included their signature grilled sea bass, which was cooked to perfection with a delicate seasoning that enhanced rather than overpowered the natural flavors of the fish. The seafood platter was another standout, featuring an assortment of fresh catches of the day, each prepared with its own unique touch. The service was exceptional throughout our meal. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu, offering thoughtful recommendations and answering our questions with enthusiasm. They struck that perfect balance of being attentive without hovering over our table. The restaurant's ambiance added to the overall experience, with tasteful décor that created an upscale yet comfortable setting. Whether you're planning a romantic dinner or a gathering with friends, Prem's provides the perfect backdrop. In summary, Prem's Seafood Bar & Grill delivers on all fronts – delicious food, generous portions, top-quality ingredients, and friendly service. It has certainly earned its place on my list of favorite seafood restaurants, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

The food far exceeded our expectations. The service was excellent - staff were attentive but not hovering. The timing of the service was superb. Highly recommend the oysters (natural and kilpatrick), the steak and the Tassie stack. Good selection of wine at reasonable prices. We loved the story on the first page of the menu as well - we will definitely be back. Thank you, Prem’s!

Had dinner here last night and the food was excellent, we will definitely be back when we visit Tassie again The only downside was that the server for our section seemed to struggle when they got moderately busy - didn’t put in our last drink order and left as waiting for 40 minutes before we decided to just pay the bill. We would have stayed for more drinks and dessert if they were a little more organised Don’t let this stop you from visiting though, as the food was phenomenal. Very fresh and full of flavour

An excellent choice after disembark the Spirit of Tasmania and being the first lunch in Devonport. We started with Tasmania Scallops as an entree and it was delicious, a must have, followed by Seafood linguine. The portion is way to big for me. Not the best I've had but still very delicious. I would agree with some of the Italian customers who reviewed this restaurant, linguine needs to be improved. Excellent service, very attentive and friendly staff.

We loved both Prem’s and the Dineboat and now they have produced a new food baby for Devonport under the title of Elegance Lounge. So much to love here - the reliability, reputation and essence of the original Prem’s with a whole new menu that is inventive and broad - honestly something for everyone! They also bend over backwards to ensure everyone is catered for. My vegetarian daughter requested a Napoli sauce instead of the spaghetti bolognese listed in the kids menu and they had it sorted with no issue at all. And it was delicious!! The new Seafood Lasagne is incredible. And lovely to see a vegetarian curry on the menu too, to add to the veg offerings. Love the new fountain at the entrance, too!!!!

Popped in with friends for a quick dinner as we didn't have much time and really enjoyed our meal. The service was friendly and attentive and the food was served in good time despite being relatively busy so we didn't feel rushed to eat. Would definitely recommend. Food was delicious and well priced.
