"This is a lovely casual dining restaurant in the west end of Glasgow. Inside, the mood is low key with modern seating and dimmed sunset lights. The restaurant was full, so we had to take a seat next to the entrance and window, but we got seats! The menu is not large, but I always prefer it when a restaurant does a few things well, rather than too many things not so well. Everything on the menu looked reasonably priced. We ordered 2 halloumi burgers and one black bean burger. I loved my halloumi burger, the avocado and peppers that accompanied it were perfect. The sides of hand-cut chips were lovely too. My friends all enjoyed their burgers too. For dessert we ordered three different items with the intention of sharing at least a small portion each. We ordered the Chocolate Orange Cheesecake, the Sticky Toffee Pudding and a Caramel Shortcake. My cheesecake was fantastic, it had a lovely citrus taste not unlike Terry’s Chocolate Orange. My friend ordered the Sticky Toffee Pudding and it earned high praise amongst the group. I wished I had ordered that as well, it was delicious. It had a lovely smoky aroma, the toffee sauce wasn’t too sweet so that you could really taste the caramel, vanilla and custard."

Just right. When you fancy a satisfying breakfast roll or a full breakfast you could do worse than to try this place. It is great, from the choice of food to its quality and its lovely service level. Great wee place

The food at this restaurant is amazing! This was my first time visiting and I am so glad I did. The warm welcome and fantastic service were top-notch. We had a group of five, so we were able to share a variety of dishes. Our plates included king prawn chorizo spaghetti, burgers, pasta, French toast with bacon syrup bruschetta, followed by cheesecake, sticky toffee pudding, and caramel shortcake - all of which were delicious. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be returning in the future!
