We are on our first day in Scotland and I wanted to find something with fresh veggies and spice…read more We'll be having enough traditional food in the Highlands. We loved this restaurant and enjoyed all our dishes. The good thing about small plates, at modest prices, is if a member of your party doesn't care for a dish it's no big deal. The salads, the kebabs, the dips, the seafood... everything was first rate as was the service. Only dish that faltered (and we had 10 among four of us) was the moussaka. Terrific meal! They need to pay more attention to their Yelp listing - there's a full bar, excellent cocktails, and they take credit cards - despite the Yelp listing.

There is very little I could fault about this place. It's spacious. The food comes pretty quickly…read moreand the service is fantastic. As I get further into my twenties, I've found that restaurants have an increasing tendency to play their music very loud. I'm sorry, and call me old fashioned, but one of the main things about going out for dinner is that you are there to have a conversation with the person you are with. I'm not there to get my groove on. Anyway, I digress. I really enjoy Greek/Turkish and Middle Eastern Food which is what this place specialises in. We chose some mezze plates including the chicken souvlaki, soutzoukakia (meatballs), the Moroccan Chicken Tagine and the Loukaniko. It was mouth watering. It was great value too, the portion sizes were manageable and we left very happy customers.

we're do I start , me and my partner went to celebrate our anniversary. the waiters and the bar…read morestaff were great very welcoming and helpfull . the starters were awful we got the pre theatre dinner , I got mussels in a tamato sauce the mussels we're definitely not washed and the grit in them was shocking , my partner got the black pudding/ haggis fritters they were soggy and no flavour. the mains were even worse I got the house specifically pasta with the chicken / sausage meet , the pasta was something from a grocery shop and definitely not homemade as you would expect from an Italian restaurant supposedly? . my partner got steak frites fatty steak frozen chips absolutely shocking do not go near it

After reading some excellent reviews of Piccolo Mondo, we came here for dinner with very high…read moreexpectations. Piccolo Mondo is close to Glasglow Central Station, on a very uninviting street. Despite the somewhat negative exterior setting, inside it's welcoming and traditional. We found the service to be friendly and efficient; unfortunately, while the food was AOK it was nowhere near as good as the reviews had led us to believe :-( For my starter, I had the house specialty - Potted Prawns, served in a warm creamy sauce with thin grissini sticks. It was OK, but I doubt I'd order it again. For my entrée I had the Seafood Risotto, which came with too much Calamari in a slightly spicy sauce with prawns and mussels - decidedly unappealing... Overall, it was an average Italian meal for too high a price in very busy surroundings. Better to find an exceptional meal elsewhere.

International Food Night is one of my favourite recurring unofficial Yelp events and Rocco G always…read morefinds somewhere really interesting to take us to. This time we were meant to be going somewhere else, but this place really impressed. From the outside, it looks just like a casual takeaway but there's actually a restaurant out the back too. Rocco had booked us a table and we had the space to ourselves which was quite fun. Looking over the menu there was a really impressive selection and I'd say most people should be able to find something they'd be excited to order. Of course I went for the aubergine starter (imam bayildi) which is served cold and in tomato sauce. The aubergine had been cooked for a long time so it was lovely and soft and incredibly delicious. It was also really nice to have a cold starter as it was quite refreshing. For mains, I had the chicken shish which came with rice. It could've used some kind of sauce I thought, maybe some yoghurt but I did really enjoy it. It was a generous size portion and I couldn't actually finish it in the end. While this restaurant is pretty casual I felt like we were well looked after, and the bill came to around £16 per person which I thought was reasonable for two courses and many soft drinks. It's handy for a pre-drink at the Laurieston too.

I love Falafel! I love Houmous! I used to love Halloumi! *sniff* The rest of the menu may as well…read morehave been written in Turkish cause I knew what I was having.. The first time I walked past this place I did have a bit of a laugh about the name, it really doesn't look like much from the outside. I really did wonder what we'd be in for as we gathered in an empty back room for International Food night.. Thankfully initial impressions don't always ring true as this was a rather enjoyable evening. So yes, Falafel & Houmous were ordered & devoured as I'd worked up quite an appetite that day. To be honest, you could easily have 1 starter & 1 main course between two, which would mean you could try the Baklava (you know you want to!) The Houmous was really good, it was flavourful and had the perfect consistency for spreading on the mountain of fresh flatbread that accompanied it. I think I could've kept eating it until I keeled over! The Falafel plate that came out as my main course was huge. Thankfully about 1/3 of it was salad so that I didn't end up overdosing on chickpeas, as the other 2/3 of the plate was Falafel & (more) Houmous. The Falafel was a little overcooked on the outside, but it was perfectly cooked on the inside. Oh yeah did I mention there was yet more flatbread! After that meal I figured I'd carb loaded for the rest of the month, it was about 49% chickpeas, 49% flatbread & about 2% salad & drinks. The great thing about Kervan Palace is despite the modest surroundings, the food was pretty authentic & tasty, the seemingly lone member of staff was really friendly and obliging (despite having a group of 14 hungry Yelpers & 8 folk up front watching Fenerbache v Ajax). I have to say I've thought about going back for another taste of the Houmous & Imam Bayildi, which means that this seemingly hidden wee gem has found itself another fan!
