It’s simple really, our calling card is sustainable Scottish seafood.

Our name comes from the Gaelic word for fish. It’s a wee bit tricky to pronounce, but it’s no bother if guests don’t get it quite right. With delicious fresh produce served by our very own Head Chef, Sean Currie, you'll feel the energy in the way we go about things – our warm welcome, enthusiasm for what we do, and, of course, a splash of Glaswegian banter.

Serving sustainable Scottish seafood is at the heart of everything we do. That’s why £1 on every bill goes to The Firth Forth Lobster Hatchery, who hatch, rear and release lobsters to ensure stocks remain plentiful for future generations. Sea more on Instagram: @lobsterhatchery

A very nice environment with plenty of people contributing to a pleasant atmosphere. Despite a number of reviews complaining about service times we were pleasantly surprised by the prompt and efficient service we experienced. The young team dealing with service were friendly and informative without being intrusive. It is a lovely restaurant with plenty of space between the tables to allow for privacy. We would have preferred one large scone and a couple more sandwiches rather than the two scones that were quite heavy going, but we are nitpicking because the whole tea arrangement was delicious. Our glasses of Prosecco were of good quality and set us up for a very pleasant afternoon.

I had expectations that it wouldn’t be that great as it’s a restaurant that’s part of a hotel. However I was happily proved wrong. The drinks were outstanding. Huge shout out to the amazing French cocktail bar man. The food was also fabulous. Super tasty and the best meal I’ve had for a long while. Highly recommend.

Afternoon tea for myself and my mother was delicious. The flavours of the variety of food all complimented each other. Staff were very attentive and friendly. An enjoyable afternoon.

Only disappointment was the pastry case on the chocolate and caramel tart. It was extremely tough. Everything else was beautiful, particularly the beetroot tart and the Brie brioche.

Service was excellent as was the food. The restaurant was quiet when we were in as it was early on a Wednesday evening, but we had a lovely experience as we had such nice people at the next table.
