Brilliant service and food. Despite being very busy we were served quickly and in a friendly manner. The food was delicious and a sensible size. Wine was excellent and not too expensive.

Beautiful food as always, and ridiculously cheap for what you are getting. One of my friends is gluten free and was blown away by the variety of the gluten free menu. We will all be coming back on a regular basis from now on!

Overall a good meal with efficient service. My partner found a shard of glass in her starter - luckily she didn't eat it. The restaurant were most apologetic and did not charge for her meal or drinks which we thought was only fair. Despite this we would probably return.

The food was brilliant. The service was fantastic. I love this restaurant. They cater for gluten and dairy free diet and to have a banana fritter for pudding was the highlight of the meal

Disappointing, way too much lettuce in the scallop starter, and the duck was quite sinewy and very hard to cut. Overall really a let down

Excellent value for money for a set lunch menu, the staff couldn't have been more helpful. The standard of the food was first class, particularly the chargrilled pork loin and chorizo ragu, which was absolutely superb.

Great food but disappointed with table.asked for a booth upstairs but told only for 4 people and there was only 2 of us.while having our meal .a couple came in and were offered the booth.which they took.then the same happened with the remaining booth.spoke to waitress who we first asked when we entered the restaurant on why the table in the booth was given to 2 people rather than 4 ? Her answer was.."sorry" no explanation or reason....no offer of a free drink or anything....wouldn't recommend the red onion to friends due to this

Food & service was great. Only issue is that the restaurant is not lit on the outside so it is very hard to find (in the rain!).

The restaurant was comfortable. The food was fabulous, prepared not just to feed you but to entertain you as well. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. The bill for all that was very reasonable. We will cerrtainly visit again next time we are in Glasgow.

Amazing restaurant! Food quality and service was first class. There were three of us and we booked in advance and told them about our dietary requirements. One was Coeliac, one vegetarian and one vegan. When we arrived and were seated we were presented with three separate menus for each of our various needs. This is amazing, and unheard of anywhere else in Glasgow. The waiting staff could not have been more helpful and friendly, and they obviously had been trained in what each of our allergies / requirements meant. As if that wasn't enough, all our meals were delicious and inventive. We will definitely be back!

Early evening options for pre-theatre or a la carte menu provide good choice. Food nicely cooked, good atmosphere and chef came to table to check we were enjoying the meal.
