Food Quality

Pros:

  • "I was blown away by everything I ate. There is so much care in every single thing that was served."
  • "Best restaurant in Dunfermline by a mile. The sheer quality of the food here surely makes this a contender for Michelin."
  • "The food was brilliant! Not your average menu with lots of twists and flavours."
  • "The food here is fantastic, prepared to a really high standard and probably the best in the Dunfermline area."
  • "Been twice.. first time was amazing.. second time we were in a group and I wasn't as impressed."

Cons:

  • "The halibut was overcooked. And it was sitting on 2 teeny shrimp."
  • "The food was good, nothing special. One of the dishes wasn't great."
  • "The starter was super small with the smallest scallops I've ever seen."
  • "I'm very disappointed with the restaurant, my sister started working with them last week and only a few days ago after only working 4 shifts there they have paid her off!"
  • "Rather pretentious menu, that to be honest can't even manage to cook the most basic of dishes (cooking a steak)."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Although it's not cheap I found the service and quality probably justified the cost."
  • "Can't praise the place highly enough. I suppose the only drawback is that it is quite expensive, but that's not to say it isn't value for money."
  • "It is expensive, however, you definitely get what you pay for."
  • "The food is some of the best food I have ever had in my life perfectly cooked and the presentation was amazing."
  • "Absolutely amazing! The staff were super friendly and couldn't do enough for you."

Cons:

  • "Sunday lunch for 2 adults with 2 soft drinks cost us 90 pounds - way too much."
  • "Food was OK however the small portions and the price put this restaurant towards the bottom of my list."
  • "Drinks massively overpriced! £9.50 for a glass of wine and £4 for soda water and lime."
  • "Overly expensive for the area. Be warned they automatically add a 10% service charge."
  • "The icing on the cake was the bill for over 200 pounds which we were happy to pay but included a service charge for 20 quid plus VAT."
