63@Parklands in Perth & Kinross

Stopped in for a drink prior to heading for the railway station, a few hundred yards away. It had the look of being deserted, but was just very quiet at the time we visited. There were no other customers in the bar lounge, but the barman made us feel really welcome and directed us to a comfortable lounge where we enjoyed our drinks. Prices were reasonable and the service was attentive. Good place for a beer before heading for the train.

Estuve anoche, el 14 de marzo de 2020, con mi familia. Los camareros eran excelentes y atentos. Desafortunadamente, la parte principal del menú de degustación, que era un plato de pato fue una decepción para 2 de los 4 comensales en nuestra mesa. En un plato había una etiqueta de código de barra adhesiva considerable flotando en el jus y en el pequeño plato de olla caliente en el plato había un hueso de aproximadamente 1 pulgada de largo al lado de la carne que estaba muy finamente desmenuzada, en la cual casi me ahogo y Me cortó el paladar. Los camareros estaban horrorizados de que esto hubiera sucedido, SIN EMBARGO, el gerente de turno en ese momento, declaró: "Estoy seguro de que puede apreciar que estas cosas sucedan". En realidad, yo y mi familia que cenamos NO apreciamos que estas cosas puedan suceder en un restaurante de 2 rosetas o en cualquier otro lugar. No se recibió una disculpa adecuada y la actitud de los gerentes de servicio fue bastante despectiva de nuestra queja. No se hizo ninguna reducción en la factura ni en la oferta de un café de cortesía. Estándar totalmente no profesional. Debido a esto, no recomendaría este restaurante o volvería.

They are great friendly and nice respect and good Every thing

Un colega y yo habíamos reservado la cena y habíamos pedido una mesa tranquila donde pudiéramos hablar de negocios. Nuestras necesidades fueron satisfechas. La elección del menú era sencilla y el precio era razonable, aunque muchos de los vinos tenían más de 35 años. Tengo la sopa de eglefino ahumado y la panceta de cerdo. Ambos estaban deliciosos. El servicio fue atento y oportuno. Sin duda volveré pronto.

We had our office Christmas night out here in December. Food was all preordered without any hiccups. Out table was set in the mid dining room away from the party disco. But this actually worked out better as we could hear both the music and the conversation! Meals seemed to go down well and the choice was extensive. I had the beef and enjoyed all though it was maybe a wee bit on the fatty side. But otherwise very good.

Attended a party night with colleagues in December. The 'party' night consisted of 3 tables (2 of them ours) and our table was in a conservatory section with very little lighting. Starter was ok, main of beef was nicely cooked medium, yorkies tasted a bit stale as if they had been cooked well in advance and some roasties were cooked others hard. Sticky toffee pud dessert had no dates in (which should be the sticky part) and the chocolate orange cheesecake tasted like it had been done with cocoa powder (bitter taste) not chocolate (the accompanying ice cream was delicious). Music was incredibly loud for such a small room and everyone soon moved to either the lounge or the bar.We actually left about 10pm. I have eaten here before and enjoyed it so was very dissapointed with the quality of the food. Not a great set up for a party night such a shame.

Me gusta este restaurante, pero sería genial si estuviera más ocupado y creara más ambiente.La comida era deliciosa y fresca (siempre una ventaja). Hermoso restaurante luminoso y cálido. No me puedo quejar del personal, muy eficiente y amable.Volveremos y espero no tener que correr a casa tan rápido. . . ¡Los jóvenes y sus llaves!

Me quedé en julio de 2018. Personal encantador Personal amable que cuida de ti. Me ayudaron a encontrar lugares con mapas. Hermosa habitación limpia y ordenada. La comida del restaurante era fabulosa y realmente disfruté de mi estancia. Iría y me quedaría allí de nuevo. Lo califico como 10/10

Visité aquí con tres amigos usando un bono de Itison. Estaba muy decepcionado con el menú - 4 hamburguesas diferentes, pescado y patatas fritas y ensalada César (4 extra para pollo). Los cupones funcionaron a las 7. 50 cada uno, que supuestamente era un descuento del 50%. Si hubiera pagado 15 me habría decepcionado mucho. La camarera que nos atendió fue amable y eficiente, pero el gerente que también estuvo involucrado con nuestro pedido fue grosero. Pedimos café, que estaba bien. Cuando pagamos la factura, ya habían agregado la propina del 10%, incluidos nuestros cupones. Siempre daríamos propina y tendríamos en cuenta el cupón, pero me molestaba que se hiciera sin consultarnos. Siempre pensé que este hotel era un poco lujoso, pero incluso el espacio exterior fue decepcionante.

Viandes (agneau, bœuf) délicieusement cuites et préparées très bien présentées, le tout dans un cadre agréable et feutré.

Pretty simple. Amazing food, very attentive and welcoming service, great wine and a glass of champagne as the opener. Love 63 whether at Parklands or Tay Street.

We were very fortunate to win a 7 course tasting menu courtesy of Taste of Perthshire Food Festival. This was an absolute treat. 5 star luxury with delicious food and excellent service. Ideal for a special occasion. A real culinary delight! A big thank you to 63@Parklands and Perthshire Food Festival, Perth City!

Overall really quite impressed. There is a top dining destination in Perth. We intend to return soon.

Enjoyed lunch here, food was very good and service excellent. We had an Itison Voucher so value was excellent and included 2 courses and a glass of fizz.We ordered a bottle of water and 2 desserts as extras. A service charge of £4.20 was added to the bill. Now - we are not in America and this is my pet hate. If I wish to give a tip I will happily give an amount of my choice. Given we had a voucher we paid the service charge. However, I would like to know what I would have been charged if we did not have any extras i.e. how could they charge for a pre paid voucher.This has put me off returning even thought the food and service was good.

We ate at Parklands restaurant Bank 1 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The food was delicious (the steak FAB). We had a warm welcome and great surrounds. It was nice to be able to park so easily outside the hotel.

Very disappointed. Only 4 of us in restaurant 2 ordered soup and we all ordered our main courses at the same time. After waiting 30 mins asked what had happened to the soup and were told chef forgot our soup and main courses were ready. Eventually soup arrived. Someone came to apologise and offered us a free soft drink but we were almost ready to leave then.

We visited this resteraunt on an Itison deal. We had a Brockmans gin to start which was served with lemon!

My wife and I had lunch here and it lived up to all that I’d heard about it. We sat in the well lit conservatory, looking out over the South Inch. The waiting staff were really friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and filling, so unfortunately couldn’t manage a dessert. The highlights were the smoked salmon, although it could have done with some oatcakes. The pork loin was melt in your mouth. The only criticism I have is that the waiting staff were a bit slow and we had to ask for our drinks a couple of times and when the water was brought out there were no glasses so had to ask for them. Over all, a lovely lunch. Would recommend and return.

We had a recent meal where the food was very good but the condescending attitude of the manager/owner resulted in a less enjoyable experience. His treatment of guests was unhelpful and at times rude. We and others felt unwelcome.

We love 63 Tay Street and had been wanting to try 63@Parklands for ages. We arrived on time and were shown to a drawing room where we had a glass of champagne while choosing our meal. We were then shown through to the the dining room. Hard floors, eight tables and only half of them occupied on a Saturday night. I wonder why? The steers were over chilled. The steak - at a surcharge - was all right but lacked trimmings: one oil soaked mushroom, one small tomato, no leaves... venison main, again ok, but the loin ends were over cooked ... The ‘cheese course’ was a small triangle of a cheddar and an unnamed blue cheese - we asked the waitress and she said it was Hebridean - and some packet biscuits.

We booked Parklands as we greatly enjoy 63 Tay Street, Perth, its partner restaurant. The dining room had a hard floor and seemed to be a thoroughfare for waiting staff taking food elsewhere so the room was very noisy. The food was not really that great. To start, we were offered two rolls, one brown, one white and neither warm. What would have happened if I, too, had wanted a white roll? They were not baked in the kitchen. The starter was cold, as it was meant to be, but really insipid. My Partner had the steak which was all right, but nothing too fancy, and my venison haunch was overcooked at the ends. We left before pudding. Was it worth £125? No. Maybe the fact that there were only four tables in use in the restaurant on a Saturday evening should ell the restaurant something.

Visited with family for Sunday lunch just over a week ago. The restaurant was almost empty and we were allocated a table in the window area overlooking the South Inch.

I was meeting a friend for lunch here, our table had been booked for several weeks for 1.15pm.

Chilled out break. Good location and the restaurant food was fabulous. Dessert was to die for. Already looking forward to the next time.

De ninguna manera se puede quejar de la comida. Menú degustación limitadas opciones pero lo que ofrecen muy buena calidad y excelentemente preparado y cocinado.

We were given a gift of a meal for two here, and we weren't disappointed. Lovely ambience, pleasant staff, and gorgeous food. Highly recommend and would not hesitate to return.

We were here for a romantic get away and really enjoyed our experience here. The steak was amazing. Truly. Worth every penny.

Visited today, with my daughter, for lunch. We were greeted very warmly, shown to our table, one of the best in the restaurant. Our prosecco arrived very quickly, along with a big jug of iced tap water. We had an ITISON voucher for 2 course...

Stayed in the hotel it was lovely. I had a fabulous evening meal. Excellent menu. Well presented. I had the rack of lamb it was amazing. Staff serving were lovely. I would definitely eat here again and highly recommend it.

Fantastic taster meal lovely staff nothing too much bother we were not rushed or hurried all courses beautifully presented we were aware of the staff but they were not in your face there when needed doing a wonderful job

Had the three course lunch. Chose beetroot for the starter as I don't like beetroot but it is good for you. Unexpectedly delicious . Maybe I should try cooking it more often.Next came the Red Mullet. Again a fish I never choose. Two pieces of reasonably sized fish. Skin very red. The dish was again perfect.The cheese board however was a tad tiny. I have to agree with other reviewers' that while pretty to look at it did not show the same inspiration as the previous dishes. It was also lacking in the ain ingredient ie cheese. Two triangles smaller than processed cheese triangles with tiny biscuits. Most up market restaurants offer more choice. A cheeseboard suggests a selection not two small triangles.

We were given an Itison voucher for afternoon tea for two and were looking forward to our visit. On arrival we were asked to take a seat in the lounge - a rather gloomy area with low settee and table that was not very comfortable to eat at. Additionally, unless we wanted to sit next to each other conversation was out of the question unless we wanted everyone else in the lounge to hear!The afternoon tea is meant to include a glass of Prosecco each - this was not offered and we just assumed that this was something that had been stopped. However, when we were leaving we saw another couple being served Prosecco. It was a different server so perhaps the girl that served us just simply forgot!The sandwiches were very good but the selection of mini cakes (as per the advertisments) left a lot to be desired. There was two mini carrot cake muffins on the stand, along with a standard size almond type tart that had been cut in half. The other "cake" on the stand, which again was standard size and chopped in half, turned out to be a mini quiche! There was also a small glass of chocolate mousse each, which was thick and rich but spoons were not long enough to reach the bottom! The homemade scones were, hmm, nothing spectacular!We were there for less than half an hour. Even at the half price ItIson deal it was still overpriced for what it was. I have had quite a few Afternoon teas in my life and this rates near the bottom on the scale. Very disappointing.

We booked a table for two in the restaurant and had the taster menue. The welcome was warm and a wee G&T was provided in the lounge prior to being taken though to our table. The ambiance of the dining area was excellent with subtle greys with the decor. The lighting was just a little too subdued as it was difficult to see the beautifully presented food. The service was excellent, not rushed and without fuss. The wine choice was good and not overly expensive. All of the five courses were first class. Great combinations of flavours and textures and beautifully presented. The influence of 63 Tay Street shone through. An overall good experience. Highly recommended.

A special birthday treat that did not disappoint.Staff were very attentive and friendly. If I was being picky it was just a bit cool and the lounge lacked a focal point and atmosphere.The menu was limited but the options suited us . The food was beautifully presented as you would expect in this restaurant and was equally tasty. I opted for the steak as a main albeit it came at a premium and the meat was beautiful, melted in the mouth.Not somewhere I would go too regularly due to cost but perfect for a treat. There is also a Bistro restaurant in another dining room which was less formal and less costly.

We were celebrating my son's birthday and booked a table for lunch. Service was fantastic and the food was amazing. We had the three course Sunday lunch, which had a wide selection on the menu. Cauliflower & cheddar soup was creamy & delicious. I had slow cooked pork which melted in my mouth. All the vegetables were fresh & truly scrumptious. We all really enjoyed the whole experience and would highly recommend.

We had an itison voucher for the 5 course tasting menu, but it would have been worth it even at full price. We were the only people in the restaurant that night although the bistro at the other side of the hotel was busy. However the room is set out well and so it didn't feel empty. We had a glass of champagne in the sitting area, and then had 5 courses of fabulous food and some yummy red wine! The food came out with good breaks in between so we never felt rushed and the staff were lovely and friendly as well as very professional. Highly recommended, we'd go again!

Had the 5 course tasting menu here last Friday with my husband and we both enjoyed every mouthful - I even enjoyed the duck starter and I don't like duck! Service was friendly and efficient- attentive without being intrusive. Drinks were well priced. I love the restaurant decor and the table cloths and candles - it is a really peaceful room to eat in. Great for a couples evening out.Toilets are very clean and well maintained - both quality hand wash and hand cream available - excellent.The only thing I would say I didn't care for was the coffee - really didn't have any taste but this was very minor in the scale of things. We usually don't bother with coffe and make our own when we arrive home - will do that next time.We really like 63 @ Parklands - much better than 63 Tay St is now - and feel it is really worth the 50 mile round trip drive to eat here - no better recommendation really!Delighted to recommend particularly for couples (main restaurant - there is also a more casual bistro). I am certain you will enjoy the whole experience.

Food for all tastes at the highest quality, happy to accommodate dietary requirements. Five courses of bliss.

very relaxed experience and the quality of the food was excellent.

Myself and my wife had a very pleasant dinner here. Very nice food and the young girl serving was great.Maybe trim some of the trees to get a better view of the park as the garden was a bit of a jungle!

Had the 5 course taster menu and the food was really tasty and well presented. The staff are first class, attentive and professional with enough personal attention to balance make the experience really enjoyable. We had a good chat with the manager Scitt who gave us great advise and information regarding staying at the hotel. We will definitely be back for the restraunt and stay at the hotel too next time. The location of this place is really good too, just on the edge of the town near the train station next to a beautiful big park. Everywhere is within walking distance.

Visited with a friend, we had an Itison voucher for a Taster Menu. Really good value, food was tasty, staff were attentive and friendly. Would visit again!

Came here with an itison voucher for tasting menu, so price was impressive. Our dishes were different to those being slated by other reviewers, and our meal was very good from to finish. Have been to 63 Tay St a couple of times and found that to be superb.This was quite close standard and I'd definitely go back.

Having eaten at the sister restaurant in Tay St a few times over the years, we were looking forward to our stay at Parklands (Gourmet Break Kingsize, including Dinner and Breakfast).I have reviewed the hotel separately.Sadly, our Gourmet Dinner turned out to be disappointing, so much so that the 2011 Zuccardi Q Tempranillo turned out to be the highlight.There was a mix up in respect of ordering our soup course, which meant that my wife had finished hers before mine arrived. Our starters (Asparagus and poached egg for me and Crab mousse with salmon for my wife) were better than average, but the Mains, (Trout and Fillet Steak respectively) faired slightly less well. My wife quite enjoyed her pudding but none tempted me.As in the rest of the hotel, the staff were excellent (although, to my mind, hotel/restaurant owners should bar staff from saying "No problem", instead of "My pleasure" after you have thanked them.) The Americans have got a lot to answer for!!So, overall, although we liked the hotel very much, we found the meal disappointing, which surprised us, very much, having had excellent meals at Tay St several times.

I've eaten many a tasting menu before and this for me was just run of the mill. First of all I'll say that ambiance and service was excellent throughout the night. First course was was the salmon was very tasty, next was courgette soup but soup is soup. I personally don't think that soup belongs on a tasting menu as it's not memorable and doesn't showcase what the chef can do. Next was a duck dish with Pak choi coleslaw- duck was a bit overcooked as it wasn't pink but did come with a nice sauce, coleslaw was nice but it did not being on the same dish. It was 2 separate dishes. Next was same cheese and grape board- again a bit of a cop out- the chef and the restaurant can't possibly showcase their capability but serving a cheeseboard that doesn't require any cooking. Dessert was a pistachio cakes with sorbet and cream. 4 dishes arrived and 2 of them arrived with no cream which we had to point out to the waitress. Anyhow that was the best course of the night excellent dessert- well balanced and tasty. Overall it was a decent meal but would suggest that the chef could really show off a bit more and replace the soup and the cheeseboard- clearly the chef has some talent as the other courses showed glimpses of brilliance

Lovely 5 course meal which was wonderfully flavoursome and beautifully presented. Favourites were the crab and salmon croquette starter and the fillet steak main was to die for! The only criticism we had is that the restaurant and lounge were very quiet-louder music might have created a bit more of an atmosphere.

I booked this on an ITISON deal and got 2 for £40. It was advertised as a 5 Course, tasting menu, 'Fine Dining' but this in all honesty is either a misnomer or the Chef had a night off. The menu was uninspiring, Smoked Salmon, Wild Garlic Soup, Duck, Cheese and to finish, Cheesecake. A tasting menu is where I expect the Chef to show his/her skills in the best possible way but at 63 if this was the best, I worry that the norm is less good and so ranks as poor. On this deal, I got the food at ½ price, if I had had to pay full price for this offering, I would have been less than happy. When you look at the menu, 3 of the dishes are cold so prep is easy, all they really have to do is heat the soup and cook the duck. I was really disappointed as 63 at Tay Street has quite a good reputation. If I was the owner of 63 Tay Street I would seriously look to this standard and re-consider putting my name to it. The smoked salmon came with an egg mayonnaise, (Inspirational...not) The Garlic Soup was good, The Duck way over-seasoned (I suspect the sauce was a reduction from a stock cube) The cheese, well you can't spoil a nice cheese and the Cheesecake, the size of a door stop. There was no subtlety, no obvious skill in the cooking or presentation and the menu choice uninspired. The Staff and the service was good and the Girls were really pleasant, but the food was a disappointment. With the support of 63 Tay Street I expected better.

Clean tidy place to go enjoy a meal . I went as a couple and although the place was busy it did not hamper the service that we received which was really professional and not intrusive at all well worth the money and we will return,

Booked Christmas day lunch, never eaten here before but gets good reviews, friendly welcome from staff, nice dining room overlooking the garden and car park, plenty room between tables, Starters were poached pear with a blue cheese, and soup Main courses were the venison, fillet steak and the turkey, all very good, and there was no rush to finish your meal, christmas pudding was small and not the usual shape but enjoyable and the cheese and biscuits, everyone enjoyed their food, the hotel was busy but it was still a relaxed atmosphere and a very enjoyable lunch :)

Really enjoyed my xmas meal.I Had the poached pear with a blue cheese froth. Yummy. Main was venison which also was great. My mums fillet steak tasted great as well as she could not eat it all and I assisted. the xmas pudding was small but enough after that meal. Even though the hotel was busy it was still a relaxed atmosphere.

We were so looking forward to our meal in the restaurant but left disappointed as our food was served lukewarm - even when it was returned to us after staff reheated it. Staff apologised but we left thinking we won't rush back.

We enjoyed a lovely meal which was above the average,very well presented and the staff are very friendly would defo return

An excellent meal, it was virtually fine dining, the flavours were awesome! I had the salmon, the partridge and the crumble it was so tasty!

I have stayed here at the hotel twice with work, but unlikely to stay again.Good bits:This hotel is really well located, a couple of minutes walk from Perth train station and right by South Inch Park, and a short walk to the river & north inch. The staff are friendly, however simple requests seem a little too much for them.Room for improvement:The downside for me is mainly revolved around food. On my first visit, I ordered Eggs Benedict. The menu has a tempting description of poached eggs with hollandaise etc, however when it arrived it was very small, and one egg. I expressed my surprise as the menu said "eggs" and asked if I could order something extra. Eventually the waitress got the owner who said I could have something, and the waitress came back to take the order. Cheese Omlette. Nice and simple. A mushroom omlette arrived. Sent it back, and they made me feel like I was an inconvenience, rather than apologizing for their mistake (not to mention all this time it was taking when I had a meeting to get to!)My last stay, I had an issue at dinner. As a single female away with work, I often will use the time to eat to catch up on work. I had a training video to watch on my ipad, and bought my headphones so I didnt disturb other guests. Unfortunately, the wifi does not work in the restaurant. My room was literally the other side of the restaurant wall, so I asked if i ordered, once it was ready, could I take the plate through to my room. I was told I had to pay £5 tray charge, even though I was going to carry it myself!!! In the end I made a mobile hotspot with my phone and managed to sit in the restaurant, and ordered a steak, medium. When it came it was overdone, with chips (I had asked for salad instead). The waitress apologized at the chips and pointed the finger at Chef, and then picked off, chip by chip, with a fork, the chips off my plate, right at the table.... I then got the salad in a bowl on the side. Fair enough, problem solved, however as I was eating my meal I bit into a long bit of burnt cling film/plastic. It put me off my meal & I didnt finish it. I told the waitress & again, she said that "Chef wasnt doing so well tonight..." She asked if I wanted to see the dessert menu but did not try to make amends for the plastic...At breakfast, at least I knew to ask for 2 eggs on the eggs benedict this time!Upon check out, the owner did refund me £5 off the bill for the plastic incident! £5?! I had spent just over £40 on food there. I actually felt insulted, and as it was a work trip which they paid for, it was little significance to me.If I had been spending my own money at this hotel/restaurant, I would be disapointed.As it stands, I am unlikely to stay again, even with work paying. I will look elsewhere.If they sort their approach to customer issues & are more understanding, and review the food menus and Chef, this hotel would be so much better experience.Other things to note:If you are on the ground floor, it is really noisy. This is an old building and the floorboards above creak whenever a guest above moves. Unfortunately for me, the guest above didnt settle until very late, meaning a restless night for me.Some of the rooms are a little dated or need repair. The room I was in had a faulty shower screen which would swing outwards, sending water all over the bathroom floor - really annoying. The room was very dimly lit, with one of the lamps broken.I am sure most guests do not have the same poor experience I had, based on the overall reviews, so perhaps i was just very unlucky.

Had a great family meal here... food was all delicious and service was great. It was very convenient since we were staying in the hotel.

Just home after visiting 63@Parklands for the first time. Our 6 course taster menu dinner was my 50th birthday gift from friends and to be honest although we are local and although we dine out often, we wouldn't have thought to go there before. Well, were we in for a surprise, the meal was fantastic and the staff were lovely, especially our waitress ( Alannah/ Alana?).I opted to pay the supplement for the fillet steak and was not dissappointed, it was the nicest steak I have had for a long time, medium/rare, cooked to perfection. We could not fault a single thing during our visit and if you see my other reviews I am an honest reviewer. Credit where credit due, our visit was delightful.We will definitley add this restaurant to our list of places to go and would recommend it to friends/family.Thank you Parklands for a memorable evening :-)....

One of the best places to eat in Perth. Food exquisitely prepared and presented, in fine surroundings.

Went for a one night stay at £57.50 per night each for dinner B & B and were looking forward to a nice stay. We were a bit disappointed when we arrived as while the hotel was nicely painted it was quite dull and a bit depressing. It has tried to look classy but in my opinion it has missed the mark. Our room was at the end of a few corridors and was quite adequate with a large well-appointed bathroom. There was NO tea making facility in the room which meant we had to buy or tea and coffee at the hotel at £2.50 and £2.00 each. The dinner was adequate but not as impressive as expected from the write up and my wife asked for well-done steak but it came cremated. The cauliflower was mashed in a compote dish but with the other veg there was no real taste to them. While our visit was OK we felt there was no welcoming atmosphere during our stay and it was WELL overpriced comparing the cost of the stay to other hotels and lack of warm atmosphere as it felt a bit like a holiday Inn.

Had a very good lunch served by a very pleasant and helpful young man. Attractive varied menu. Comfortable surroundings. Will happily return

Had a fantastic meal here recently. The food was very well presented, as you would expect, with good sized portions and was absolutely delicious. Would definately recommend the fillet steak. Well worth a visit.

Myself and my partner visited the restaurant recently with a Special Offer voucher we had for a 3 course meal. The meal was very pleasant, very well presented food and very filing with staff very polite and helpful. I think the star of the meal was the dessert which included a chocolate fondant with peanut butter ice cream etc etc. It was absolutely gorgeous for chocolate lovers.We would revisit the restaurant in the future.

The food is excellent, what more can you say, that is what it is all about after all. Menu tip; try the fillet steak.

The food was a delight in this restaurant. Not only did we get our three course menu but also had two courses added in between which were a delight. The staff were very attentive and helped us match a good wine with the meal. Where we ate the meal was lovely but missed just a little bit of sparkle and pizzazz. Would definitely go back and sample more treats from the menu though!

It was ok and to be honest nothing more than that. I've been to 63 Tay Street many times but I am now finding that the menu doesn't change very often. We were there for the tasting menu, and none of us were bowled over. Very tasty cauliflower soup, and the fillet steak main was ok not great, just ok. We thought the same ingredients kept popping up in various forms throughout the courses. The sweet was nice, again not great just nice. I honestly think they need to up there game because it seems like they are resting on their laurels a bit. So all in all ok, but won't be rushing back.

We went for their valentines evening meal and had a great meal. The food was excellent, service good and the setting felt modern and fresh. The menu was varied and used a lot of local ingredients, as we would expect given the involvement of 63 Tay Street. The pace of the meal was outstanding with a perfect gap between courses.

From the moment of arrival you are treated to a refined although relaxed atmosphere. The staff are all very pleasant and attentive throughout your visit. Best of all of course is the food, you are treated to culinary delights.

This was our second visit. Welcome was warm at reception desk but no-one offered to take our coats (happened last time also). Waiting staff very courteous, polite and efficient. Ambience okay but consevatory a bit cold even beside radiator and other table too close/ noisy for quiet conversation. Menu was imaginitive and food was mostly very good, however apart from main course, portions were tiny ...... I know it was a tasting menu and on a budget but still disappointingly small. Starter and dessert were very original and very tasy though. Overall a pleasant experience but if we had paid full price for the tasting menu I would have had to say something about the the portion sizes I'm afraid. Would I return and would I recommend, yes but subject to my comments above.

As often is the case for my birthday meal, it was quiet at this time of the year but that didn't detract from a lovely meal. The decor is fresh and modern and we had the taster menu which was delicious, if a little too much for me. Service was absolutely first class and the Manager also took the time to chat with us which made us feel very welcome.We have been here several times over the years and it never disappoints.

We took advantage of a discount voucher scheme to visit here, with our close friends for a birthday treat. Our meal consisted of five courses in very pleasant surroundings and with excellent service. Unfortunately the food did not live up to standard. Each of the courses had elements that were up to standard but overall lacked in finishing. I am sad to say my good lady and myself have both suffered from stomach issues the next day.

I have enjoyed meals at 63@parklands many times and once again enjoyed a lovely meal and very attentive service, but unfortunately we had been to Cromlix House the previous evening and it was no contest. The difference in the price of the Christmas menu was only £3.00, but the difference in value, service and food was incalculable.We did, however, have a very pleasant experience.

On arrival there was no one to greet us. Eventually we were seated in a lounge area but no one took our coats or a drinks order. Eventually someone came to take our food order only to discover (after the waitress had rolled her eyes and stomped off to speak to 'chef') that no vegetarian option was possible. My daughter doesn't eat meat but will eat fish so I asked if she could just have the sea bass without the chorizo cassoulet..... This resulted in more stomping & eye rolling and a very definite no from 'chef'. Really!? In this day and age no veggie option!? As we left there was an attempt to offer us the bistro menu but I'm afraid it was too little too late. We went to Pighalle and had a fabulous meal!

good food,good service,good prices for food,only down side we had was it was very quite at lunch time the day we were there us and a family of 4

I purchased an itison voucher which cost £35, the total value £70, this was for a 4 course taster meal at this restaurant. On arrival at the restaurant we were seated in the lounge area and ordered a couple of drinks, we were then taken through and seated in the restaurant. We were seated at a table for 2. We were brought our amuse bouche which was OK, we were then brought our starters. I ordered crab risotto and my partner ordered wood pigeon. The risotto arrived at the table barely warm and on tasting it was like baby food, no bite like risotto should have it was like mush. I sent it back and it was replaced with the wood pigeon which in fairness was delicious.A table of 4 came in a short while after us and although there were several other tables available they were seated right next to us, meaning we could hear every word of their conversation. Not a good atmosphere when all you can hear is the table next to you drowning you out. I did notice also that this table were brought out their amuse bouche after the starters. I assume that they must seat all the Itison guests together, I'm not sure if the experience may have been different in the Bistro paying full price. I would expect to have at least 3 choices for each course on the menu, however there was only 2. The choices were very limited and definitely do not reflect the price at all. We were then brought out our main courses. I had sea trout and my partner had pork belly. I know that sea fish are generally salty however it was placed on a bed of samphire which in my opinion had been seasoned, the dish was very salty which overpowered the flavour. After finishing our main course we waited approximately 20 minutes for a waitress to clear our plates off the table and bring our desserts. There seemed to be only one waitress who was attending to both the restaurant and the Bistro. Eventually we got up and walked out, fed up of waiting and had a train to catch. A waitress from Parklands called me some ten minutes later, at which point we were just about to board the train. I told her to call me back today to arrange payment over the phone of the drinks which we did not pay for last night.I made a complaint to Itison this morning who I believe has spoken to Scott Edwards the owner. Scott called me today and I have to say his attitude was ridiculous. All he kept doing was talking over me about how the table next to us left a £45 tip and he tried to tell me the risotto was made to order, absolute rubbish, I have tasted firmer baby food. This risotto had clearly been made in a batch and microwaved, if not then it was overcooked to the point I found it inedible. It was also completely overpowered by lemongrass which was not stated on the menu. Scott was not prepared to take criticism of any kind and spent the phone call talking/shouting over me about how good his restaurant is, to which I disagreed and then he was not willing to compromise in any way. I paid £25 for 2 glasses of wine and 2 beers this morning with a card over the phone. I paid for the drinks however due to the bad experience I would have thought they might compromise and meet me half way but he wouldn't budge. He also threatened me with CCTV, not sure what he meant by this as at this point I had actually paid for my drinks. I did mention trip advisor and he hit the roof. He told me "I'll tell people you walked out without paying", yeah I did walk out, but I have at this stage paid for my drinks, which I did not have an issue with. If Scott Edwards thinks that this is an appropriate way to talk to and treat customers then I'm surprised he has a business. As a business owner it is imperative to be able to take constructive criticism not call customers liars.I trust itison as a company and have never had a bad experience with any vouchers I have purchased from you and I am highly disappointed with this experience. I don't care how many covers he has done or how much customers have left as a tip. I am entitled to have an opinion and think it's important to give feedback however it seems Scott Edwards the business owner does not agree.

I purchased an itison voucher which cost £35, the total value £70, this was for a 4 course taster meal at this restaurant. On arrival at the restaurant we were seated in the lounge area and ordered a couple of drinks, we were then taken through and seated in the restaurant. We were seated at a table for 2. We were brought our amuse bouche which was OK, we were then brought our starters. I ordered crab risotto and my partner ordered wood pigeon. The risotto arrived at the table barely...

My husband ordered lamb which was served with the sauce split. On querying the quality of the sauce the reply from the waitress was that it was fine when it left the kitchen. My husband did not want to make a fuss so suggested to the waitress that she should ask the chef if he thought that the sauce was in any way satisfactory. When the waitress cleared the plate he again voiced his displeasure which was again met with the same reply. He then asked to speak to the manager who asked what we would like him to do. I think that the answer to that was pretty obvious. Get it right first time!

This was our third visit and again it was really good. There is a beautiful beer garden/patio overlooking the south inch, seriously underused on the occasions I have been here. The staff are pleasant and helpful and the food has been great - good local produce and consistently varied menus and good cooking. All in all this place deserves to be much busier. It may suffer from a bit of an identity crisis - is this a hotel or a restaurant? Looking for a restaurant in Perth on Trip advisor wouldn't bring you here easily because its listed as a hotel - and that's a real shame, as its a lovely spot.

The food was cooked to a very high standard. Well priced and nicely presented. The staff were very helpful.

We had a meal here last week. The staff were excellent, very welcoming. They were quick to clear our table and bring out each course. The food was delicious, very fresh with lots of flavour and well presented. The only thing I disliked was the salted caramel Ice cream which I thought was way too salty. The drinks are reasonably priced. The only thing I found a bit disappointing was the decor of the restaurant, the main part of the hotel is really modern and this part is very old fashioned and we were seated beside some really dusty shelves which was a bit off putting. If it wasn't for that, it's be a 5 star review.

Four of us went here for dinner using Itison vouchers. The food was excellent and the restaurant very pleasant. However unfortunately when removing our sideplates after the starter the waitress dropped a very large blob of butter on the polished wooden floor. She did not clean this up, even though we pointed it out to her, and it was actually a real slipping hazard which was still there when we left.In fact she walked through the butter when bringing our next course, leaving a huge greasy smear and it wasn't very pleasant to sit next to! As an extra we ordered tea and coffee which included petit fours at the end of our meal but the petit fours did not appear and the waitress disappeared so we were unable to ask for them. To be fair, when we went to reception to pay and mentioned this, the cost of teas and coffees was deducted from the bill. I think the fact that the waitress was busy in the other, totally separate, restaurant at the other side of the hotel is unfortunate as there were no staff around when we left and after a long wait we had to go to reception to pay. I was surprised that there are no disabled parking spaces, especially as the drive is very steep. (My son is disabled). It's a lovely place and the food, as I said, is great, but a special night was slightly spoiled by the indifferent service.

We ate here before heading to the races. Service was very good from the waitress.Lovely decor and a good selection in the menu. The lamb and rub eye were particularly well cooked.Would certainly return.

Bought the Itison voucher (5 course tasting meal for 2 for £39) and was slightly apprehensive, primarily around the portion sizes; we were not to be disappointed.When we arrived we were seated in a small lounge area where we were given a wine list and the menu by a friendly waitress. She came back and took our order and within a couple of minutes we taken to our table where our wine was waiting.The first course was brilliant - I had seabass in a light cider batter with small caramelised apple balls and smoked salmon - delicious, light and moreish. My partner had quail served in a strong gamey broth, with a quails egg and liver dumpling. Very strong in flavours but melt in the mouth delicious! This was slightly smaller than an average sized starter but this was to prove wise considering what was yet to come.Our intermediate course arrived in a tiny little pot. We removed the lid to be greeted by a steaming pot of mushroom and celeriac soup with a celeriac crisp. The mushroom flavour was discreet unlike some pungent mushroom soups I have had before and the little pot was enough to please the tastebuds.Next up we both had the fillet steak. The steak was huge yet cooked to perfection (rare for myself and medium rare for my partner). It was generously accompanied by a large mushroom, tomatoes, big fat chips and a lovely béarnaise sauce. One of the best steaks I have ever tasted - so juicy and flavoursome. Only downside is we were not given a steak knife, however it was fairly easy to cut as it was cooked so well.Next up was a cheese board. Only two cheeses (blue cheese and I forget the other) but came with oatcakes, grapes, chutney and a fruit jelly. Very refreshing.Finally we both indulged in the dark chocolate fondant with orange ice cream and salted caramel - out of this world! Bursting with flavours and the smoky dark chocolate was paired nicely with the fresh bursts of orange ice cream. This was all washed down with a lovely bottle of red wine.The waitress was brilliant all night, topping up our drinks and swiftly clearing out plates (without being intrusive). We were the first in the restaurant and there was 6 other tables by time we left - all looked to be very impressed by the food!This was a little on the pricey side - £7.50 pp supplement for the steaks and around £24 for the bottle of wine, however for a treat it was definitely worth it!! Top marks!

When we arrived, we were informed that no one else had booked into the restaurant and we were asked whether or not we'd mind dining in the bistro. We were informed that the food was the same. We agreed, and sat down and ordered a bottle of wine. It arrived having already been uncorked (rather, unscrewed) and tasted rather low-quality: surprising considering the price we paid for the wine. The appetizer I chose was the pumpkin soup, which was delicious. It arrived at the proper temperature and was flavored perfectly. The steak I ordered was fine, of average quality. The dessert was excellent. Everything, however, was quite expensive, and only the appetizer and dessert merited such a premium price. Perhaps we caught them on an off night, but I can't recommend this restaurant based on its high prices and average-quality product.

Itison 6 course menu. Fussy food at its best, lots of melt in your mouth taste sensations, and plenty of food. Cant wait to go back. Definite recommendation. smiley, professional staff .Been before where food was fab, but no one else in restaurant. Better this time, as others dining.Particularly enjoyed the artichoke soup ,with honey and truffle oil and scallop.Tasteful décor. Lots of parking, 2mins walking distance to railway station

Everything was amazing, food, service and atmosphere. The fish was cooked to perfection. Every mouthful was heaven. Waitress was attentive and very polite. Lovely evening, I look forward to our next visit.

We lunched here a few weeks ago with family including a baby ,staff all so helpful, food first class,in a nice bright restaurant shame it was raining as they have a lovely outdoor area. Hope to be back soon.jen

We had the five-course dinner menu at 63@Parklands. We've often eaten in the bistro, but this was our first visit to the restaurant. The food was wonderful - beautiful flavour combinations and gorgeous presentation. Every single thing we had was a treat. Can't wait to go back again.

Was there tonight for the itison deal the meal was really good the service just as good we would defiantly go back can't wait till it is on again this was our second visit If you get the chance please try it amazing

Great food at a very good price, granted we were staying at the hptel and used the deal but it is masterchef quality food.

had a delicious 5 course dinner. 2nd visit and consistently good. service was perfect for us - not too intrusive but attentive. very competitively priced for level of cooking.only slight grip is that the bread could have been better.

Had my daughters private baby shower here a few years back, fantastic place, service superb.A lovely atmosphere about the grounds.

Excellent food with first class service. Good value for money for all the food that was served with a couple of extras which were a nice surprise!

My husband and I went for a 5 course fine dining experience and 63@Parklands and were not disappointed. We were the only couple in the restaurant area as it was a snowy Monday night but this did not bother us and we were looked after by 2 very attentive waitresses. The quality of the food was brilliant. The starter of scallop and black pudding in a pea soup was delicious. The cauliflower and Roquefort soup course was a lovely combination and was served in a small ramekin which was just the right size for a 5 course meal. The main course was Aberdeen Angus steak and home made chips. My husband loved this. There was a cheese course next which was served with delicious oatcakes, grapes and chutney. The pudding was the piece de resistence for me, vanilla crime brûlée with shortbread and a lovely nutty ice cream. Amazing. The Pinot Grigio was also very good. We would happily go back.

We both enjoyed a fantastic well cooked steak with well recommended bottle of wine to match. Service was on par and timely.

This was a celebration meal with family and friends and although the choice is much more limited than the Bistro menu it showcases local fresh produce and the excellent skills of the kitchen team. We were all delighted with our choice from the menu and by the quality of the entire meal.

What a wonderful and exquisite meal prepared at this fine dining restaurant. We enjoyed 5 courses, beautifully presented, creatively prepared and the tastes were superb. Great place for a special celebration.

We dined at 63@Parklands using an ItIsOn voucher on a Sunday evening in October. We were greeted warmly by a very friendly waitress and were shows to a pleasant lounge area where we ordered our drinks and perused the menu. The fine dining menu consists of a starter (2 choices), intermediate (one option), main (3 options), cheese course (one option), dessert (2 options). We both opted for duck liver parfait, pork and cheesecake. We were shown to the dining area which had welcoming decor. We were one of only two couples in the dining area - as a result there was little atmosphere. The food was distinctly average, the main course however was very flavoursome. Drinks were well priced. Enjoyable but i would have been disappointed if we had paid full price - there is so much competition in Perth we wouldn't rush back.

Fantastic menu, I could happily eaten anything on the menu, great flavour and the seasoning was perfect (no need for salt and pepper on the table)

The food was spectacular, very good value and the service was excellent. We will be going back and will recommend it to all our friends.

My wife and I were dining at 63@Parklands on Saturday evening and we had a perfect evening. The staff were all very attentive, friendly and helpful. We were given a ‘Fine Dining Taster Experience’ at 63@Parklands as a wedding anniversary gift. We were not disappointed, the food was superb and we both commented on the well thought out menu, extremely well executed cooking and perfect presentation. The setting is superb, hard to beleive you're in the middle of Perth. We were never rushed but allowed to savour every moment of our evening and relaxed in the small lounge adjaceneyt to the restaurant. We found this to be a superbly run restaurant and we look forward to going back.

Got given a dining voucher and used it at 63@Parklands, we had a great meal, drinks on the terrace first and then in for a gourmet treat. We are big fans of 63 Tay Street and the food here is also of a very high standard at 2 rosettes. Menu is very compact, but what is on offer is very local/Scottish. Pistachio dessert was just amazing. We chose to have the recommended wines with each course and the staff were knowledgeable and helpful. Service discreet and efficient, will add to our regular list.
