225a West George Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2ND
Gamba celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2008, and one would be hard-pressed to name a more consistently excellent, top-end restaurant in Glasgow over the same time period. It's not only that chef and co-owner Derek Marshall doesn't ever settle for…

Iggs
15 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,

Gandolfi Fish
84 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NY
Gandolfi Fish has only been in business since June 2007, yet curiously feels as if it has been a part of the Merchant City fabric for quite a bit longer. You can attribute its quick integration to owner Seumas MacInnes, who knows the terrain well, given…

17 John Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1HP

The Grill at Dakota Forthbridge
Dakota Forthbridge, Ferrymuir Retail Park,
South Queensferry,
EH30 9QZ
The cool, modern façade of Dakota at the Forth Road Bridge has an intriguing and slightly aloof quality. For those passing it on the A90, it looks like the headquarters of a spy agency. For those inside, it's a sumptuous hotel with an equally stylish…

61–65 Rose Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2NH
This busy, brasserie-style spot in central Rose Street has some of the freshest and most succulent mussels in town. The bright, wooden-furnished bar area leads on to a lively dining room, where the open-plan kitchen and blue fish mosaic covering the…

Fins Restaurant
Fencefoot,
Fairlie,

Cruz
The Shore,
Edinburgh,
