We booked a table last minute on a busy September weekend and they didnt the best to accommodate us. The fillet steaks were cooked to perfection and better than most of the steak restaurants we have visited in Edinburgh and glasgow. The staff were lovely, efficient and a mine of info when discussing things to do in the area. I cant recommend this place enough. It has made our holiday weekend even better.

Super efficient and friendly staff, steaks were cooked to perfection and better than some we have had in steak restaurants in Edinburgh and Glasgow. Kids meals were thoroughly enjoyed. Very reasonably priced… for the high quality of the food served. Would highly recommend and may even visit the area again just to have another visit here.

Last night 5 adults and a 3 year old had dinner. The service was excellent. So good to see a properly child friendly establishment. We all had 3 courses mostly all different and each and every one was fantastic. Can’t wait to go back
