Excellent Dover Sole

Yes, I recommend this

Received 4 large Dover sole which were easy to cook with a good taste. Liked the fact that they are whole (no filleting) as prefer to remove the flesh from the bone myself. Would thoroughly recommend and will buy again.

BIRTHDAY DISASTER

No, I don't recommend this

Bought this as a birthday celebration for my husband. What a disaster! Cooked as instructed - fried - but it was so full of bones it was almost impossible to eat. What a disappointment. We normally enjoy fish but never again for this.

Very tasty. I had forgotten how many bones were in a whole dover sole so that was the only downside but that was my fault.

Disappointing

No, I don't recommend this

I had high hopes of this, being a big fan of Dover Sole. Whilst the texture was as expected, I found it lacking in flavour - more like I'd imagine a farmed fish would be. It was also unevenly filleted, with smaller bones still present intermittently along the sides- not just the odd few- so some mouthfuls were unpleasant.

Tasty fish

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this fish last week, it was such a nice meal, so tasty. I would definitely buy this again and will look forward to the meal. I purchased a few at the same time so have the other one to eat, I froze it. Well worth the money as its a lovely tasting fish.

Full of flavour!

Yes, I recommend this

We buy these for special occasions and always enjoy them. They are always full of flavour. They used to be individually priced which meant that sometimes you got less than you would have had you bought them separately (rarely much more!). Now,on our last order they had no individual prices and we thought them slightly small - we bought our last Dover Sole in the shop as fresh fish and then froze them - seems better value.

great taste but we paid £30 for just £27 of fish

No, I don't recommend this

We have always enjoyed M&S dover sole bought in store so ordered 4 @ £30 via Food to order. The total value of fish provided, however, was just £27 which meant that the portions were smaller than expected and we were overcharged by £3. M&S have rectified following our complaint but it has made us reluctant to order this product on line and we will take a chance in store in future. Shame as it would be great to rely on the pre-ordering service.

food: 4 dover soles

Yes, I recommend this

The ordering process and the "click-and-collect" service were excellent and efficient. The product was very well packaged and fresh. The taste however was not quite as good as expected. But on the whole I would use this service again and recommend it to a friend. E. Bartlett
