  Memorable and Talented Kitchen, Lovely and Polite Wait Staff serving the Most Scrumptious Food in a Unique Setting. - The menu online is a decent general menu catering to all tastes. However, the real magic is the multitude of exquisitely prepared specials. These folks know how to cook! We... read more chose the following starters: mussels, langostines and fish soup. The mussels were plump and tasty, the langostines sweet and cooked just right in a lovely butter sauce. They come split but you will want to use the shell cracker to dig out every succulent morsel. The fish soup was really really good, an excellent Scots version of a French classic. So good my friend said she could have eaten another bowl. The mains were all off the specials board. The prawn risotto is a perfect version, grilling the prawns added so much depth of flavor that after this any other risotto will seem pedestrian. The Megrim special was a giant slab of deliciousness - seriously succulent white fish cooked correctly. I chose the seafood fricassee which was a lovely combo of salmon, white fish in a delicate but flavourful sauce with fresh veg. A delightful bowl of straw chips was shared by all of us to our delight. We watched a stream of delightful desserts be delivered to other tables but in the end only the youngest amongst us had the room left to indulge in a most beautiful slice of frangipani. They advised it was most excellent but didn’t share one little bite. We had good coffee and espresso which came with a proper square of delightful fudge. The restaurant itself is gorgeous, a wonderfully renovated church. Highly recommended. I live on an island and am used to fresh fish and I say go. There are options for non seafood eaters as well but the preparations here are so excellently executed that it would’ve a shame not to experience the cleverness of Mr Littles’ kitchen.

  We took a punt on a night stop in Blairgowrie and booked dinner at this restaurant. It was a good punt! The entire experience was first class, the service was... read more superb, the property was unique and delightful and the food was the best surprise of all. The meal was simply first class; delicious, brilliantly presented local ingredients and fresh as it comes, possibly the best seafood i have ever had. This was so good I will seriously consider making a special trip just to go back to eat here. If you get a chance you should try it too.

  Couple of 4 going for dinner. Service was ok - however I think they could up their game. Food alright nothing to shout about, and the wine prices ridiculously high.... read more Would we go back? Unlikely.

  Had lunch here today for the first time and it was absolutely delicious.
All 3 of us had starters and main courses which were all so tasty and beautifully cooked.... read more /> We finished off with 2 desserts between the 3 of us and coffees and again so tasty and enjoyable.
Will definitely be returning.

  Everyone in the group had empty plates, even the young children. What more do you need to know? An excellent place to take friends or family for a treat!

  Mostly good, but portion size on the small side and overpriced.

Haddock and chips - fish was very nice but chips pale and soft, not remotely crispy. Salad leaves... read more were just that, undressed green and some not so fresh. At £16.95!

Other dish was a special of John Dory with purple potatoes and mushroom. This was a nice dish however portion of fish was very small as a main course. £22.50 which would be reasonable had the portion been a little more generous.

Couldn't fault dessert and service was fine. Probably wouldn't make a return visit.
