Been coming here for years but it’s been a while. It’s always been good and absolutely deserves all the positive reviews. I’m not going to list the food. Go look at the menu. It was astonishingly good. I’ve done a fair few fancy London restaurants and several with Michelin stars. This place just effortlessly kicks many of them to the kerb and I don’t understand why folk aren’t clamouring for a table. It’s not particularly cheap but it’s certainly not stupid prices and there aren’t too many places these days where you leave thinking that it was absolutely worth every penny. It’s a beautiful dining room too and Sally on front of house perfectly attentive but discreetly so. Will be back very so...
We had made a reservation for dinner at this restaurant after hearing positive reviews, and we were not let down! The charred mackerel starter was intriguing and delicious, and the halibut main course was a sizable portion, perfectly cooked, and accompanied by a tasty sauce. While my dessert was satisfying, the starter and main course were exceptional. The wine list was extensive, and the house white was both delicious and reasonably priced. If you're in the area, it is definitely worth a visit!
Although I don't typically leave reviews for restaurants, I felt compelled to praise the exceptional dining experience we had at Asquiths in Lostwithiel last night. The attentive staff went above and beyond to accommodate my mother's food intolerances, modifying her menu selection (the venison haunch) with care and understanding. The food, prepared to perfection and presented elegantly, was truly delicious. The outstanding service and charming decor made our evening unforgettable. Thank you.
we chose this restaurant whilst we were visiting Cornwall, based on its good reviews and we were not disappointed. It is tastefully decorated with coloured paneled walls and comfortable seats. The food was of high quality and very well presented on the plate. You were given time to casually enjoy the flavours of your meal, with a suitable time period between courses for you to digest. I would recommend if you are in the area to book a table to sample the delights of this restaurant.

This is a wonderful, cozy restaurant offering a modest selection of fine but generous dishes. I had the kedgeree that was delicious followed by a rich chicken pasta dish that was reminiscent of old school french Keith Floyd style with a rich cream sauce again, really delicious. Very reasonably priced, I would highly recommend this restaurant for couples small groups.
I visited this restaurant for my partner's birthday, as Asquiths is our go-to place for special occasions. My partner, who is a chef and hard to please, always enjoys the flavors here. The service is excellent, the food is great, and we've been to Michelin-starred places that don't compare to the quality of this restaurant. Thank you for a lovely evening.
Came here on a whim and luckily they had a cancellation so we could go. The food was sensational, lovely to look at and bursting with flavour. I had the chocolate tart with banana and yoghurt ice cream…. That ice cream was pure joy. One scoop isn’t enough. The staff were friendly and attentive. I recommend this restaurant but do book in advance.
One of the best meals I’ve ever eaten!! Would recommend to anyone visiting Cornwall. We stayed In St Austell and was recommended Asquiths Would defo visit again when next in Cornwall Great food and wonderful service and very reasonably priced

Love this place, stick your best frock on and dine in style. Food is beautiful, wines are excellent and well priced. Tables (6 from memory) are well spaced giving you good privacy. Luxury that doesn't break the bank.
Such traditional tastes that let the produce speak for themselves. A great team in a lovely setting. It will be on our “go to list”
