Seafood Restaurant Wexford

Seafood Restaurnt Wexford Wild & Native Seafood Restaurant is a restaurant serving Wexford’s doorstep fresh fish & local high quality produce. Owned by Fergal & Jodie Dempsey trying to create their own future. We honour our name and celebrate what is available on the emerald isle.

Wild & Native is the place to go for a relaxing dining experience on the coast in the sunny South East, in Rosslare Strand & only 10 minutes away from Wexford Town. Wild & Native Seafood Restaurant in our eyes & our customers eyes is an original experience in how we show off the food that is found predominately in Wexford and and most certainly in Ireland. Chef Fergal Dempsey shows off his many talents through his ever changing menu working with what produce is available through the seasons. His passion is evident in every dish and he has a small but great team working with him to carry on his passion. The restaurant itself is light and airy. The chats are warm & welcoming. Jodie is the woman running the show from outside the kitchen. Jodie's passion for food, wine pairings with good customer service and a happy smile is evident throughout her team.

Let us help you create those memories to remember.

Our Story

Jodie & Fergal first met in 2009 and started searching for a property for Fergal to take on himself. We then chose a property in Rosslare Strand for the whole family (2.3 children) to get to grips with. Wild & Native Seafood Restaurant was first established in March 2016 with a vision to create a different dining experience.

"Had the absolute pleasure to come across this place in Rosslare late last Saturday afternoon before heading back to the ferry to return to the UK. What a treasure trove, superb collection of Irish food and a simply delightful lady who served me. She couldn't have been more helpful, friendly and welcoming. I've submitted an entry to Trip Advisor which I hope will encourage others to visit.

I can't wait to return! Just two words to describe this place - simply superb!"

"Another perfect meal! Wild and Native never disappoints and the quality of food produced shows a real love of the ingredients used. The Sole, crab claws and prawns are personal favourites - simply prepared, not complicated but perfect every time.

This is such a wonderful addition to Rosslare Strand and it's easy to see why we need to book months in advance of our Bank Holiday weekend trip."

"We dined in wild & native last night, I had goats cheese salad it was delicious, then I had prawns and scallops for main which were sublime. Jody the lady serving out table suggested wine, it was the nicest wine I've ever had.. the service was great and staff very friendly. And welcoming I can't recommend high enough!."

Tracy - Wexford

"We travel all over the world and eat at the best restaurants. Last week we had lunch at a two Michelin star restaurant on the Côte d'Azur and our meal at this restaurant was just as good and was quiet a bit cheaper. I cannot recommend highly enough. If you are in the area you must try it. ."
