Tracey MacLeod - 12/15
Saturday, August 13, 2011 - To get the full experience, we ordered the roast shellfish platter to share, although I was secretly feeling I couldn't get too excited about another plate of shellfish. And then it arrived, a fabulous selection, garlanded with samphire, chilli and sea purslane. Local lobster, crab and langoustines, grilled with butter and wild garlic, whose warm buzz set the tastebuds singing. Razor clams, cockles and mussels, cooked mariniere style, in white wine. Loch Fyne oysters supplying a blast of iodine freshness. This was a feast, and by the time we'd worked our way messily through it, I'd fallen in love with shellfish all over again.
your comments review this restaurant
We have been here a few times as my wife is seafood fan and she has always eaten well here because the fish/seafood is consistently fresh and well prepared. On our last visit I had a particularly good langoustine dish. Nice view if you can bag yourself a window table. Service can be hit and miss, some of the staff don't seem to know the basics and we have sometimes waited longer than is appropriate betweeen courses. Still, a good option for seafood.
