Glasgow,
G3 8AN
With a name meaning 'taste' or 'relish' in Gaelic, Blas proudly offers tastes of the Highlands and Islands in produce such as Stornoway black pudding, Ullapool smoked salmon and Dingwall haggis. Fittingly, it's situated close to many of the city's…

Browns Restaurant and Bar
131–133 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JS
With a kitchen that can handle close to a thousand covers on its busiest days, Browns is no modest operation. No surprise, given that it's one of a chain of 14 owned by the gargantuan Mitchells and Butlers pub operators. The corporate ethos is classic…

Situated in the modern development along Commercial Quay, Daniel's is a temple to all things French – with a good dose of Scottish thrown in. Owner Daniel Vencker is originally from Alsace, but is keen to embrace his adopted country in all aspects of…
The Doll's House Restaurant
3 Church Square,
St Andrews,
Fife,
KY16 9NN
Although it's tucked in beside a pedestrian walkway in the heart of St Andrews, you can't miss the Doll's House, with its bright purple awnings sheltering a few tables nabbed by lucky diners in the summer - or braved by the hardy in less clement…
Double Dutch
27–29 Marshall Street,
Edinburgh,

There's an appealing openness about Double Dutch. Windows take up the length of two walls, and the blonde wood of the furniture and floor brings a clean, bright feeling to the airy space. A small team works in an open kitchen, churning out…
Firebird
1321 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8TL
Openly positioned on a corner of Argyle Street in an area now filled with dining choices, Firebird celebrates it tenth year in 2008 – still winning new customers with its mix of laid-back ambience, good, affordable food and friendly staff. Smokers and…
Home Bistro
41 West Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DB
A number of neighbourhood bistros have popped up around Edinburgh in recent years. The concept is a good one: locally sourced foods in a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Inevitably, some work and some don't, but you would be hard pushed to find any…
The Howgate Bar & Restaurant
Howgate Village,
Near Penicuik,
Midlothian,
EH26 8PY
You'll need your wits about you to find this countryside inn not far from Penicuik, but tracking it down is well worth the effort. Now in its tenth year, the converted stables are deceptively spacious inside, but both the casual bistro area and the more…
La Lanterna
35 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 6AE
For almost four decades, the Martinolli family have been serving up traditional Italian cuisine in their attractive, cavernous restaurant beneath the otherwise unedifying, traffic-choking Hope Street. The décor has remained almost untouched – a warm…
Massimo (Bearsden)
3/5 Kirk Road, Bearsden,
Glasgow,
G61 3RG
Massimo Bearsden is tucked away in a lane behind Bearsden Cross. From the outside, it might look like a small bar, but the interior opens up into a rather vast space. Cleverly divided by glass partitions, the premises include a bar, dining area and…
Minsky's
Glasgow Hilton, 1 William Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8HT
Of the two restaurants within Glasgow's five-star city centre Hilton, the casual option is Minsky's. This self-styled 'New York-style brasserie' operates arguably more like a Midwestern-style massive buffet, offering a bewildering array of food.
Monster Mash
4a Forrest Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QN
With its black and white décor, tomato-shaped ketchup bottles and 'happy days are here again', catchphrase, stepping into Monster Mash feels like going back to the 1950s. It's popular with pub-goers, university students and families, and there's a…
Mother India's Café
1355 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8AD
Mother India's Café, part of the well-kent Mother India group of 'home-style' Indian cuisine, is situated opposite two other Kelvingrove landmarks, the museum and park. It doesn't take bookings, so be prepared to wait a few minutes for a table. It's…
Mussel Inn
157 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2UQ

EH9 1PH
This Southside restaurant above the Old Bell bar has cemented a reliable reputation over the years with a friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. Its well-rounded menu will suit all tastes and it offers a selection of staple children's favourites on…

Glasgow,
G2 2RU

Pani Solińska
73 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RJ
Pani Solinska is Polish for 'Mrs Solinska'. Dorothy Nowak-Solinska took over Broughton Street landmark Café Mediterraneo last year, but before putting her name above the door in spring 2008 took some time to design a restaurant she could be proud of.
Porto & Fi
47 Newhaven Mainstreet,
Edinburgh,
EH6 4NQ
This deli/bistro, which opened this year in Newhaven, adds its name to the growing list of elegant suburban restaurants in this neck of the woods. In a bright, well-lit room stencilled with green leaves, diners take in spectacular views across the Firth…
Raeburn's Bistro and Grill
12 New Street,
Paisley,
PA1 1XY
Raeburn's Bistro and Grill is the kind of reassuringly friendly, quality-conscious establishment you wish existed in every neighbourhood. A grateful diaspora of Paisley locals seem to take good advantage of it – tenth birthday celebrations occur later…
Reds
254 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH15 2AT
For parents and toddlers there are many soft play areas with café facilities, but Reds goes one better, as a café with soft play facilities. Being able to eat without constant interruption is a luxury that is so far only available to Portobello parents…
The Restaurant
29 Roseburn Terrace, Murrayfield,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5NQ
Charming restaurateur Graeme Pacitti personally greets all his customers, emphasising the neighbourhood feel of his establishment. This strong community feel is further reflected in The Restaurant's partnership with the local Bottle Shop, which supplies…
Roastit Bubbly Jocks
450 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6SE
Amidst the charity shops at the long end of Dumbarton Road, Roastit Bubbly Jocks might seem out of the way. For many, however, it's a well-loved dining institution. The emphasis is on the food and atmosphere: it's bustling, loud and warm – the way any…
Roma Mia
162–164 Darnley Street,
Glasgow,
G41 2LL
Accommodating is the word that best describes this Southside restaurant: parking is very easy and it's located near the Pollokshields East train station, just one stop from Central. Co-owner Giuseppe Di Milta also says that the note on the menu about…
Sky Bar & Grill
Ocean Terminal, Victoria Dock,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6JJ
Shopping malls and exquisite dining experiences don't immediately spring to mind as easy bedfellows. But this hasn't prevented the opening of an ambitious venture on the top floor of Edinburgh's Ocean Terminal. Sky Bar and Grill is a modern diner with…
Stazione
1051 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 0XP
Stazione is a Mediterranean-style restaurant housed in what was once a Victorian railway station near Gartnavel Hospital. An unlikely location, perhaps, but one that has been pulling in a steady stream of diners for over ten years. A large neutral…
The Sunflower Restaurant
4 Bridgegate,
Peebles,
Peeblesshire,
EH45 8RZ
If Val Brunton ever takes a busman's holiday and cooks for friends at home, it would almost certainly be just like eating at the Sunflower. Her personal style pervades every aspect of her sunny little café, from the relaxed but on-the-ball service to…
The Terrace Restaurant
The Sheraton Grand Hotel, 1 Festival Square,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9SR

Zanzero
15 North West Circus Place,
Edinburgh,
