Rosslare Strand sits on the southeast tip of Ireland, where the sea is as close as it gets. It seems entirely right that one of the best seafood restaurants in the South East should be here — on Strand Road, with the water visible and the day’s catch arriving from boats that you can actually see from the car park.
A Young Couple’s Passionate Project
Wild & Native was founded by a young couple who wanted to build something of their own — a restaurant that honoured the name and celebrated what the Irish coastline actually offers. “We honour our name and celebrate what is available on the emerald isle” is how they put it, and the menu bears that out: fresh fish and local high-quality produce, cooked with a creativity that goes well beyond what the phrase ‘seafood restaurant’ often implies.
Award-Winning
The South East Hospitality Awards recognised Wild & Native with Best Seafood Restaurant and Best Dining Experience — accolades that reflect a level of ambition and execution that goes beyond the casual coastal restaurant.
Doorstep-fresh fish, a young team with genuine passion, and a location that makes complete sense. Wild & Native is the kind of restaurant the South East should be shouting about.
