The wait staff was friendly and accommodating. The food was done beautifully. We had the Hummus (the olive oil was particularly good) the pan seared Salmon - very good. Gnocchi with grilled chicken and their cheese cake for dessert. Lovely all around. Make sure you let your waiter(was) know before you check out about a tip)

Great relaxing dinner. A group of four of us had a bottle of Merlot, lamb shank, fish and chips, and salmon for the main course. We had to try the haggies, neeps and tatties for the experience and it was surprisingly pleasant. For dessert we had tiramisu and toffe pudding. All were great. I’m not a big tiramisu fan but the rest of the group loved it.

Had an incredible meal. The menu had lots of choices and interesting flavours which were simply delicious. Excellent service. Went above and beyond to make us feel extremely welcome. The servers were very friendly and attentive. The midori cocktail was sensational! A really lovely evening. Thank you

We had a nice dinner here during our stay in Pitlochry. The fare is largely Mediterranean. We sat outside with heaters and blankets they provide so it wasn’t too cold. My wife and I shared a mushroom linguine with chicken - it was delicious and plenty for 2 people.

Never had such a good meal with such good service so quickly. Just wish we were more local. Anna was a charming waitress.

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Everything fresh local ingredients and prepared with a unique style. We had the 3-way salmon, venison and tiramisu. Great for special events. Reservations suggested since it is always busy.
