As other…read morepeople have already commented, although the smallness of the restaurant reflects its name, it can appear a little cramped. Every inch of space was taken up by tables, although the decor and feeling very much made up for this. The waitresses were very polite and always arrived just when you needed them. The only thing I would improve on would be to add something more chocolaty to the desserts menu! Apart from that the food was gorgeous and compliments to the chefs!

The 3 D's. Dismaying, disappointing, deplorable. We came with a tour group of 20 persons, notified…read morewell in advance. We were seated and given a lovely bread board with so-so bread, butter patties and no bread plates. Where shall I put my bread? On the table that they just wiped with disinfectant, or on my service paper napkin, since there is no bread plate. A refill of bread was presented with no more butter. Our set menu was two types of soup (potato leek and Cullen sink. Main choices were chicken pie, roasted BEET, and venison sausage. The mini portion of soup was good, then the mains came out. First off the mains were served on dessert plates. Those who ordered chicken pie received what would be a $2 sausage roll with some sauce veloute and two tablespoons of chicken. I changed my order to sausage, and was told 15 minutes, please. The venison sausage served atop whipped potatoes were good. Then the dessert, the piece de resistance. Either sticky toffee pudding /cake or raspberries, whisky ice cream. The sticky was a cake mix from the shelf. There was no ice cream but a scoop of whipped cream with two When asked where's the whisky ice cream they said "oh golly" perhaps the cook forgot to put it on the plate. So they brought out mini bowls that wouldn't fill an ice cream cone, with standard vanilla ice cream. Service was fine for a tour type dinner. They are severely understaffed. At the end of every adventure, I ask myself "would I return". ? They could not pay me to eat there again, although I would happily employ the barman's services regularly

Talk about a diamond in the rough! What a gem! We were in Dundee on a Weds in Sept. for a day and…read moredecided to go to Broughty Castle towards the end of the day. After our castle tour, we looked for a local place to have dinner before driving back to Dunkeld. Forgan's was such a wonderful surprise. Our party had the lemon and herb Chicken along with the Shepard's pie. My wife and I both agree it was excellent. The lamb based pie was one of the best I've ever had. We had the Haggis appetizer and topped it all off with a pint of Forgan's own brew. Dessert was toffee pudding and the chocolate mousse. All very good. The ambiance is sophisticated and beautifully decorated. Service was very nice but bit slow. However, should one be in a hurry when on vacation? Be careful, the restaurant is large but its front end is small so you could easily drive/walk by and not see it. Definitely would recommend Forgan's to anyone visiting the nearby castle, beach, or Dundee.

We were able to be seated upstairs. This place is busy (much busier when we were finished for sure). So if you can, I'd suggest reserving a spot. It's a bit loud in here. Not out of the ordinary for a busy place. We started with the pressed pork belly app. Perfect crisp. Could've used more of the celeriac puree bed. The confit shallots were so good and nicely sweet. Black pudding cubes (small. More of these!). Candied pears. Mmm. Great start. Wife got the char grilled venison on a butternut squash purée and spicy daikon planks (I didn't find the heat, she did tho!). It was excellent and perfectly prepared. Not gamey at all. I got the 35 day aged hangar steak. This is hands down one of the best steaks I have had out in a very long time. So well seasoned! Which was such a pleasant surprise as it left me wanting for nothing to add flavor. The hand cut fries were good but did need some salt. No dessert as, well, our server was scattered a bit all night. We asked for the dessert menu. She brought us dinner menus and we didn't see her for 10 minutes. So we opted to leave, a bit disappointed at the end. We would come back tho. Thats for sure.

Well, I came to Perth, which is a small town in Scotland, and was convinced I wouldn't find anything healthy to eat. Alas, I stumbled upon Howie's Bistro and guess what? They offer gluten free / vegetarian options! They even have this vitamin Cola which is infused with herbs that I tried for the first time. It was delicious! My waitress was the sweetest! A young, 16 year old girl, who was so excited to hear that I was from LA. So cute. Ask for Zori if you go. And the owner, Craig, couldn't have been nicer. He even gave me a book of Scotland that had been left behind and been sitting at his restaurant for awhile. He may not be giving out anymore books if you check it out, but he will definitely welcome you with a smile!

What a lovely place! After a few futile attempts at an unannounced dinner, I finally got around to…read morebooking a table and I was not disappointed. Firstly, the ambiance. Rollo is a relaxed place with dim lighting, quite small with limited seating but the set up is great. So after sitting down with my wine of choice, I could have quite happily just sat and enjoyed the street view and the relaxing atmosphere, but alas I was also starving. My choice: roast pork with apple jus, with a side of roast potatoes and bok choy. For my partner: beef fillet with rocket and parmesan and house chips. For my friend: the sea bass. And oh my, there was nothing in each meal that any of us could fault. The menu is a bit confusing as I was under the impression that Rollo is a tapas and wine style establishment. There are tapas style starters (none of which I tried so no comment), followed by bowls, then mains and sides. You definitely will need a side to accompany your main unless you are only after a small piece of meat. And for dessert: salted caramel and chocolate tart which was to die for. Each item was quite small, however perfectly cooked and seasoned and you will not leave hungry. I think the pricing is very reasonable for the quality of food. Definitely make a booking in advance so you don't miss out, I'll be adding this to my list of locals and intend to make this a regular hangout!

We were made to feel welcome from the start, and the service was good throughout. The wine list is diverse and approachable, with short descriptions to help guide your choice. Around 15 wines are offered by the glass. Every wine we tried was good, and the prices seemed about average for this area. The food plates are mostly designed for sharing. We started with the smoked aubergine on toast and mull crab bon bons, followed by the portobello mushrooms and the monkfish Thai curry. Portions are small but priced accordingly, which works out well if you'd like to try several different things. The Thai curry was my favorite dish. The mushrooms were delicious if just a tad too oily. The starters were interesting, but not amazing. For dessert we split a ginger sticky toffee pudding, which was small and tasty (and came with a disproportionately large side of clotted cream). Overall a lovely evening out.
