"My sister and I stayed at this restaurant for one night to celebrate a birthday party. I called ahead to confirm our room type and spoke to a very helpful and friendly staff member, who I believe may be the owner. He was very kind. When we arrived, we were escorted to our room and helped with our bags. The room was a family room, which was spacious, clean, and bright, with a double and a single bed. It was very comfortable and we had a great night's sleep. We also enjoyed a delicious dinner at the restaurant and a lovely breakfast the next morning. The staff were fantastic!"

We were a party of six and went here for lunch. 1 girl serving, very good and helpful. Food was very good but surprisingly not many others there for lunch. We all enjoyed our meal and cost was reasonable. Hopefully we will go back again when some of our group who missed it will be able to come along too. View menu

We have been a few times at the Whitehouse in Balmedie and every single time we have enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The quality of the foot served is great, everything is fresh and very carefully presented. The service is fantastic, everyone is very attentive and caring. Big thanks to Mario and the team. We will be back for more.

Stopped off here mid-afternoon for a light snack purely by chance today after a visit to the beach and it was so nice we ended up having a 3 course meal. The food is quite traditional, nothing too fancy, but it was all very tasty and obviously prepared with skill and attention to detail. What made the experience far above average was the attitude of the staff. They were cheerful, attentive and efficient (and funny . Will definitely return next time we're in the area.

"Sunday, 3rd September 2023 – 19:00 Meal: Wine Starters – Main – Coffee My friend and I arrived at 19:00 to a busy but not overfull restaurant without a reservation and they accommodated us upstairs. Menus were produced and we ordered a bottle of white wine and a jug of water. 0rders placed for starters and 2 servings of the Italian style fish stew on the ‘Specials Board’ at 26.99 each. Tomato and chilli with promises of loads of different fish. The toss up was between a steak or the stew (which neither of us would cook at home). The table was dirty and needed wiping – this request was placed 3x on the young waitron who eventually produced a cloth slopping water from a bucket in the corner cupped in her hands where she half heartedly wiped the table with water dripping onto my friend’s lap. Hurried mop up with tissues out of my bag. The white wine was plonked on the table – next to the cooler – unopened and no glasses. Several attempts were made to attract the waitron’s attention. Eventually another bottle was produced opened and we were advised the waitron was under age and not allowed to pour wine. Perfectly acceptable had she produced an opener and the glasses with an explanation I would have been happy to help myself – we understand and appreciate these things. The starters arrived and were delicious! The chef then came out to see us and explained that there was no lobster for the stew – we asked for extra monkfish, he then said there was no monkfish left – but could help us with other white fish and crab claws. He said he was down to the last 2 portions, and he would ensure they were hearty. We were a bit concerned and suggested perhaps we settle for the steak which is always delicious. He assured us we had made the right choice and would enjoy the stew. The stews arrived and were ‘hearty’ if being crammed with the contents of a tin of crab claws is your definition of hearty. The promised ‘rich tomato broth with chilli and garlic’ was a watered down version of what was clearly less than a cup of the original broth left at the bottom of the pot topped with water. It was tasteless – lacking in hint of either chilli, wine, garlic or herbs – having lived in Malta I can assure you I have a deep understanding of Med cooking. I guess we were lucky we didn’t have the salty brine of the crab claws as the broth. It was inedible and we were starving so we kept adding salt and pepper – we were beyond the point of returning the food which was a mistake in hindsight. We skipped dessert – had coffees and left. The meal came to nearly £100.00. This was an expensive lousy experience. We paid a generous tip – because they accommodated us without a reservation. Take aways from the experience: • The restaurant service on a Sunday evening at 19:00 should be as good as it is on a Friday at 19:00 • Being a local and having eaten there several times – it is my first choice for a ‘good’ meal – don’t abuse the luxury of local support. • Train your waitrons to clean tables, by wringing out the cloth and not dripping water on your patrons. • Waitrons (even under aged ones) should at least carry a wine opener, and understand that wine glasses should be produced when delivering wine. • Your chef should know better and never, ever assume he can cut costs by selling the dregs from his kitchen. • A poor dining experience costs you more than you think. We would have ordered dessert, and more importantly returned for a second meal in the next week – WE DIDN’T! I have a friend coming from Ireland in November – do I risk taking her to the Anchor?"
