The mussels are fresh and the salmon tastes pretty good. Besides, Shetland iced tea would be a perfect choice for young.

Friendly service. Only 3 tables occupied in the place but all close together. Think they could do a better job spreading out the customers to ensure social distancing. Food was nice and good price at 2 courses for £12.

First time at this restaurant having heard it was good. Enjoyed the whole experience. Marked the value for money lower as it was a set menu at the time (Hogmanay) so would need to attend again on the a la Carte.

Was there in Hogmonay & let down in 2 areas - 1. If asking folk to select menu in advance to avoid disappointment, then don't change the menu by serving them salmon instead of sea trout. 2. Service could've been better, as starters were being served when we hadn't been served our glass of fizz on arrival or our drinks order

Asked for some bread for the table and they gave us a slice each that was about the size of my pinkie finger. The butter was bigger than the bread. We were trying not to laugh when it came over , obviously was finished in one bite so we asked for a couple more slices and they charged us for them. Main meal was braised beef with haggis bon bone but they forgot the Bon bons....

We visited for a birthday treat for our 88 year old Mum who really liked it. As did my sister and I. The only complaint I have really is the cost. Very expensive for the small portion sizes. Lovely friendly staff.
