Great little restaurant. Plenty of space around the tables. Staff very attentive but not hovering over your shoulder. Nice decor. Good choice on menu with daily specials. All food and drinks at reasonable prices. Would definitely be back.

Been here many times before and this was no different in that the customer service provided by Zafir was excellent and very personal! The food was once again extremely tasty whilst being very reasonably priced 😀

My chicken was over cooked making it difficult to cut and chew. I told staff at the time but all I got was an apology.

First visit to this Bistro. Enjoyable night but very disappointed with my Ribeye steak. FYI, before ordering how you would like your steak cooked they should tell you how thick the steak actually is. My ribeye more resembled a piece of quick frying steak, no thicker than a slice of roast beef and very difficult to cook medium rare as I requested. It was served very well done, dry, tasteless and chewy. I didn't complain at the time as we were out in a party of 10 (for the first time) and didn't want that to be the talking point of the evening. I think everyone's vision of a ribeye steak is a thick juicy cut of meat. Not this time Baba! Should never have been on the "specials" menu. It would be unfair of me to rate the "Value for money" section as I didn't think it was as far as I was concerned but for everyone else it seemed reasonable.

We were welcomed into the restaurant and taken to our table. Our orders for drinks and food were taken quickly. The atmosphere was very nice and the service good. Unfortunately the food let it down a bit. I could not see or taste the goats cheese or red onion in the croquettes. The chicken was very dry and the duchess potatoes were almost burnt. However the chicken sauce was very tasty. The crispy belly pork was not crispy, but again, very tasty. So overall, little things that need looked at by the chef, to improve the food going out of his kitchen.

Exterior and interior very nice. That's the positive side of things. Service given is atrocious. After ordering our round of drinks and food, we finished our drinks and we were waiting on the servers coming to us. Each time I tried to catch their eye, they turned away. (Bearing in mind from the moment we sat down, the guy and girl constantly stared) empty pint glass is not hard to miss. When they did ask about another round, I said thank god it's only taken 10mins, which the server replied no it wasn't and got involved with a no it didn't yes it did scenario. If the restaurant was busy I could understand waiting, but I could only see two others tables with customers. Was actually excited about trying out the restaurant for the first time. Paid £22 for a taxi down and another £22 home. Shame about the above mentioned as the food looks and tastes to a good standard.

First time I’ve been there and I enjoyed my meal especially the dessert. There was a large table with a few noisey children who were allowed to run about which spoilt the experience but not really the restaurants fault but that’s why I’ve dropped a point.

Average score for an average meal. I had pork schnitzel and my wife oxtail. Both bland and ordinary. The deserts were fine as were the staff. Won't go back though which is a shame as Kirkcaldy needs decent eateries. Unfortunately this isn't one of them.

Quiet early evening meal. Quick service. Really enjoyed prawn and rice balls with avocado dressing as starter. Fish pie tasty but somewhat dry. Other half enjoyed beef skirt marinated in treacle and Guinness for main. Both typical of innovative menu. Wines very reasonably priced.

As always enjoyed our meal here, relaxed light lunch with good friends. The set menu was not really to my taste this time which is a pity as it's such great value. We all thoroughly enjoyed our Turkish Delight - Lamb Kofte with delicious dip on flatbread - coffee is extremely good too.

Hi, pleasant atmosphere with good service. However, had the rabbit then burger and chips, disappointing. Rabbit far too chewy and burger dry and tasteless with dry bun? If it had been better the price would have been more acceptable as well. Probably won't return for an evening meal, sorry.
