Jon and Fernanda's Restaurant in Perth & Kinross

Absolutely perfect for a birthday celebration. We have been trying to get in Jon & Fernanda’s for months and we are very glad we finally managed it.

Fortunate to be visiting the area with friends who'd previously eaten at Jon and Fernanda's and had booked in advance for a second time. So pleased they did! Can highly recommend. I chose the Twice baked souffle, Venison and Raspberry creme brulee. I certainly was in for a treat. All incredibly delicious, and all cooked to perfection. The service was just as good as the perfect meal, attentive, professional and friendly. We have been talking about the experience and food all day. Thank you all for a lovely evening. We definitely plan to return.

Delicious food, excellent service in a lovely setting 😊 worth every penny. Went with family and friends for birthday dinner table had tasteful birthday decorations

Delicious food excellent friendly service lovely dining area

Amazing food, best smoked salmon starter ever! Friendly and so attentive service, attention to detail akin to Michelin star restaurant. Would definitely come back!

Fantastic food, very good service and relaxed dining atmosphere.

A perfect meal and evening. The service was amazing from the call back I got, when I realised I'd called at 9 am on a Monday, the detailed discussion about my genuine lactose intolerance with Jon, and the fabulous food. We were cheeky and shared a cheese soufflé starter and the apple tartine dessert, adapted to my dietary needs. The venison and sea bream mains were fabulous. The service was both attentive and unobtrusive. Jon and Fernanda are clearly experts in their profession. If you are able, you have to visit this excellent restaurant.

First time visit for my wife and I. Fantastic food served by fantastic staff. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Warm & welcoming service and lovely food. Recently visited while on a short break in Crieff. Soufflé starter was excellent & venison main course was good.

The reason why we remain in Auchterarder. The best wee restaurant in Perthshire

Fantastic evening with friends - superb food and service. 😁👍

After a 5yr lapse with covid curtailing things as well I took a group of friends on Saturday night. Another great experience - food amazing and staff excellent. Hopefully a return visit sooner rather than later. Thank you Jon and Fernanda

Loved it. Great food and service

My husband and I have been coming to Jon and Fernanda’s for a few years now when we come to a holiday cottage nearby. This time we came to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Our table was decorated with “happy birthday” confetti and we were well looked after as usual! The meal itself delicious. The shellfish bisque was packed full of flavour and our mains (duck and venison) were perfectly cooked with delicious accompaniments and a cheeky wee cauliflower cheese. Jon made my husband a birthday dessert which Fernanda brought out with a fine rendition of happy birthday, so he was suitably embarrassed (nice one!)… Sadly the cottage we have come to for a good many years is no longer available but if we find somewhere else in the area to holiday with our dogs we will certainly be back to this gem of a restaurant. Thank you!

I booked Jon & Fernandas for a Birthday celebration for my wife and can’t praise this restaurant highly enough. Great service, fantastic food, warm friendly welcome. This was our second visit to Jon & Fernandas and we will be back.

Great experience, lovely food and well catered for one guest who required gluten free The scallops were wonderful and such a reasonable price. The venison was so moist and well cooked The chicken and fish were also excellent Had to share the dessert so scrumptious

I cant stop thinking about our meal since we last dined here (which was back in Dec 2021!) The lamb was the best i've ever had, so flavourful and tender. The service from Fernanda and her staff was also very warm, genuine and made a lasting impression on both of us. The accompaniments matched the dish beautifully, all being at a very fair price for the quality of the meal. There really aren't enough kind words to say about this wonderful restaurant, I hope to be back soon. A big thank you to chef Jon, Fernanda & all staff.

We eat at Jon and Fernandas whenever we are in Auchterarder. The food Jon cooks is always great and this visit was no exception. It’s a small menu of well cooked food. But they are also flexible if you need a vegetarian option. Restaurant staff are helpful and friendly. Fernanda always treats everyone really nicely and I get the impression that this combination of good food and personal service is why they get so many returns.

This is such a nice restaurant with a great atmosphere and superb food with attentive staff. This is the confirmation that reading other reviews really works ! It was everything that other people had confirmed, great food every course. Made our night special.

We are staying at the Glen Mhor estate and decided to book ( before we arrived) which was wise as was busy even on a Wednesday night. Everything about the restaurant is 5 star. Service superb staff very friendly. The food was brilliant. The seafood bisque was exquisite . As prices go it was very reasonable and I am certain when we come back next year a return will be on the cards.

Really lovely food, a slight twist on classics without being over complicated. Very friendly staff and great presentation.

A wonderful restaurant with exceptionally good food. Super owners with fantastic attention to detail. We will be back very soon! A fantastic experience!!!

Had a lovely meal here tonight, the cheese soufflé was to die for! Scallops perfectly cooked, 3 out of 4 of us had fillet or sirloin the quality of steak was absolutely fantastic, cooked to perfection , .. very nice service from fernanda and Emily.. can’t recommend this place highly enough, definitely going to be our regular place to go

We were fortunate enough to get a table here on their opening night following a post festive holiday, we were not dissapointed. having previously eaten at Andrew Fairlies 2 michelin star at Gleneagles the food at Jon and Fernandas came a very close second. the service was very friendly and welcoming without being intrusive, the food was absolutely off the scale, from the presentation to the flavour combinations with all the dishes and the menu choice was fantastic. the atmosphere in the restaurant was good and the surroundings were absolutely spotless. cannot wait to return when we are next in Auchterarder.

What a hidden gem! The hospitality here and general ambience was done to absolute perfection - perfectly balancing a homely welcome with feeling you've gone out for a treat The starter I had (souffle) was fabulous, one of the best starters I've had, the mains were very good but my beef was slightly over the requested order - though the meal was nontheless very enjoyable. The dessert options were traditional and for my personal tastes a little hearty after a very meaty menu. A lighter dessert option and beef cooked to my preference would have earned 5 stars for food however don't be dissuaded by this, the food is still a real treat.

My wife and I we’re staying at Gleneagles for a long weekend and wanted to try a local restaurant. What a lovely surprise, excellent food, service and ambiance. We had a starter and main each. I had the soup of the day (a chicken broth), followed by venison for my main. I rarely eat venison, but find many chefs over cook it. As a local ingredient, the chef knows how to cook it really well. He tables are spaced well, service is warm and welcoming but not overwhelming a nice balance, that is hard to achieve. A nice gem in a lovely long weekend.

Wow! Another amazing meal here. Food & service absolutely superb. Cannot wait to return again next year. Thanks so much for a great evening ☺️

Really enjoyed our visit great food and service with wonderful attention to detail

Lovely restaurant and definitely well worth a visit in Auchterarder. Food was fantastic. Brocolli & stilton soup was very tasty and the herb scone was very light. Black pudding & scallop starter went down well at our table. Main courses- steaks, lamb & venison all great. We didn't manage desserts but had coffee and great tablet. Staff were great, very attentive. Jon came out to chat to staff at end of the evening & my friends were impressed by this. Will definitely be back.

A warm welcome from Fernanda, great food cooked by Jon and friendly efficient service from the team. Sensibly priced and in our view, great value and if you're looking for somewhere to dine in Auchterarder, you must give this restaurant a go.

I checked the menu on line to prepare for my visit to the restaurant and did something I have never done before……. I read the reviews! After being a diner there for over six years I couldn’t believe some of the reviews and feel compelled to speak up. That Fernanda was referred to as “that woman” was totally derogatory and I can’t speak highly enough about her. She is a wonderful person and both Jon and she take the reputation of the restaurant very seriously. I got fed up waiting for reasons to celebrate so I have started going on my own. This is something I would never have thought I would ever do but because of Fernanda’s kind welcome, I am totally at ease. Yes, it’s a small bijou restaurant so it gets noisy and for the sake of other diners, she will politely ask parties to keep the noise levels reasonable, but she still wants people to have a good time. As for the food, chef Jon is amazing. Now, I’m not just a foodie who thinks every meal is the best ever. I have eaten in fine dining restaurants around the world, literally, including Andrew Fairlie’s and I rank Jon with the very best. If you do happen to read negative comments please consider how the good comments outweigh them. If you have anything you are not happy with, please talk to them. They are two hardworking people who take great pride in their business and will do their utmost to rectify things. I for one have never been disappointed and look forward to every visit.

An excellent meal for a birthday celebration. Although a bit expensive it was worth the cost.

Fabulous place for a special meal. Food looked & tasted wonderful. The service was exemplary. No pretensions; just first class throughout the evening with lovely little extra touches. Can thoroughly recommend cheese soufflé & scallops with black pudding for starters; then rump of lamb & loin of venison as main courses; then Tarte tatin & ice cream for dessert.

Beautiful food and exellent service - just perfect 🥰

Lovely restaurant, excellent food and very friendly service. We would definitely recommend it and go back again.

I have eaten here numerous times and the quality never drops...absolutely one of my favourite restaurants. Fantastic food and service every time.

What a fantastic evening. We were on holiday and booked here for our evening meal. We ate on Wednesday 5th July. The food was superb, the service brilliant - attentive but not overbearing, the decor classy - and the tables well spaced. To wrap things up, the Chef - Jon - came out at the end of the evening and chatted to the diners in turn. If you love good food and good service I can't recommend this enough.

Absolutely amazing food like previous recommendations this is not a place to be missed in Auchterader, they have only a small restaurant with limited covers have a great confirmation service. Great husband and wife team with some help and the ambiance, service is to a great standard. The menu is extensive and the prices are very reasonable along with good portion size. It was our second visit in a few years and will always aim to revisit in years to come. Thanks Paul & Lesley

Wonderful food, warm hosts. Wish I lived closer to visit again

This is a really nice venue and very well laid out. the staff are very friendly and helpful the food was lovely and really tasty reasonable priced food and drink well worth a visit

My husband and I always like to treat ourselves to a meal at Jon and Fernanda’s when we are in the area on holiday. We were going to go on the Friday but changed to the Thursday evening as it seemed a little quieter. There was only one other table booked so as Jon said, we had our own personal chef! The food was fabulous as always. The smoked duck salad was hearty and the scallops sweet and they just melted in your mouth. We both went for the steak which came with generous accompaniments and was nicely complemented by a peppercorn sauce. It’s always nice to have a chat with Fernanda too - she’s the perfect hostess. Thanks again for another lovely meal and we’ll see you next time!

It is very interesting to read the good number of diners that come from Gleneagles Hotel or Glenmor (The Gleneagles Lodges.) It is a credit to this restaurant that their food is preferable to Gleneagles. We had a great meal tonight - the service was attentive: the food was superb = all in all, an excellent night out. Gleneagles - eat your heart out!!!

First time visit for us but couldn’t recommend highly enough . From reservation to leaving after a glorious meal everything perfect , food excellent, staff wonderful and great value.

Excellent meal. Lovely service. Very reasonable prices. We try to go once a year when staying at Glenmor and have never been disappointed.

This was a return visit and a great meal once again. Very good menu choices. Food was excellent. Always get a lovely welcome from Fernanda. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Wonderful restaurant. Warm welcome and friendly staff. Great menu and amazing food. Good wine list too. We'll be back 😁

When you’ve been hosed down by the Gleneagles experience for a few days, this delightful restaurant is an oasis of calm, charm and common-sense pricing. The food is exceptionally good and served with a perfect mix of friendliness and competence. The owners deserve very bit...

We visited this excellent restaurant for the first time yesterday. It was brilliant. The food was excellent and the service was first-class. We will definitely visit again when in the area. Loved it.

Spent a wonderful evening here celebrating with family the food was amazing and the staff pleasant and friendly, highly recommend this place

Great restaurant with a very comfortable atmosphere, super attentive service interesting choices on the menu resulting in a very good and tasty meal

Fantastic food, atmosphere and service. What a wonderful evening. We can’t wait until next time. Thank you for the little extra Easter touches and the best ginger fudge !!

We made our first visit to Jon & Fernanda’s Restaurant last night, and what treat! No surprise, judging by previous reviews, but the food truly was exceptional throughout. I had seafood for both starter and main & it was devine. The restaurant itself is lovely...

I’ll be the first to admit that the food and service here is excellent. The only thing that irks me, and it’s happened twice in a row, is the soulless experience of eating in the left hand (as you go in) room. There just 4...

I live in Dunblane and have been to this gem of a restaurant several times. Took a friend from Gullane and she said it was one of the best meals she’s ever had. The food is excellent and staff wonderful. Jon came out to speak...

Lovely warm welcome from Jon and Fernanda. High quality delicious food and friendly local ambience

Amazing food with incredibly friendly staff. Jon & Fernanda were lovely and really made this valentines one to remember 😉☺️ Drove down from dundee and it was well worth the trip. Will definitely be back, thank you. 🇸🇬🇺🇦

We had wonderful food and excellent service in this lovely family owned and operated restaurant. Without question the best restaurant in the area. Many thanks

Excellent meal; superb menu and lovely to chat to both Jon and Fernanda. Our third visit. Hope to go again next year.

Service is immaculate and food is to die for!! Soufflé is to die for and fillet is amazing. Our second dinner here two days in a row. Strongly recommended. It’s a hidden gem!!

Absolutely superb! I informed the restaurant a week before hand that I was dairy free and Jon the chef went right out his way to make sure there was sufficient choice in all courses for me. I actually felt very special that so much effort was made. Staff always very attentive and helpful and food is top notch!

Excellent service and atmosphere. The food was exceptional and the willingness of the chef to alter the dishes for someone who is gluten free was first rate. Will definitely eat there again.

Great night out , better then Crieff restaurant!!

Returned after being really impressed with this restaurant 18 months ago and if anything it was better than our previous visit. Staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. The food was fantastic only problem being was making the choices as the whole menu screamed eat me....

Family of 4, had checked the menu online before visiting and were looking forward to the evening. We were not disappointed. Great service, great food and selection of wines. Scallop starter is to be highly recommended, venison main outstanding and steaks of the highest standard....

Highly recommended. We booked here months ahead for a one night stop in Auchterarder and were very glad we did. As soon as we arrived at our accommodation our host commented that we would have an excellent meal at Jon and Fernanda's and she was...

Lovely restaurant. Deliciously varied menu and top class Cuisine. Owners and staff very friendly, efficient. All makes for a great fine dining experience.

Quality of the food and service fantastic. Wines by the glass reasonably priced for the quality. Highly recommended!

Exceptional. This is my favourite restaurant. We stay at Glenmor every year and eating here is always the highlight of my trip. When we look for a place to take friends that stay with us, it's usually not the Birnam, Strathearn or Cairn Lodge, all nice places in there own right, it's Jon & Fernanda's. As a group, we ate here 3 times in the 2 week trip and every dish was raved about. The only downside to coming here is choosing what to have!

Friendly and welcoming. Relaxed atmosphere. Beautifully fresh ingredients and in wonderful combinations. We had a fantastic meal and the wine was very reasonably priced. Lovely evening all round.

Ristorante che offre un menù completo e ricercato, con un giusto rapporto qualità prezzo. Personale professionale.

Behind the simple facade lies a restaurant that provides really, really good food with friendly family style service. My friend declared his meal was the best he had eaten all week - and we have been to some pricey places- and the smoked salmon starter...

This place is our favourite. The welcome, the warmth, you know it's going to be great and it never disappoints. Starters were tasty & top class, for main I'd lamb, others had seabass, venison, steak and all were delicious and excellently cooked and presented. Desserts...

As usual Jon and Fernandas produced an excellent meal in very pleasant surroundings.Excellent wines were provided at sensible prices and we will return before too long.

This was one of the best meals we have ever had. The maître d’ was so welcoming and sourced me a little chair for my handbag. We sat down to be greeted with water and a tasty bread roll (so very soft!) We both opted...

Went here for a birthday dinner with my husband after reading the reviews and we were not disappointed. The food was amazing, my husband had the scallops and then the sea bass and I went for the soufflé and chicken, everything was delicious. It’s also...

My husband and I adore Jon and Fernandas because it’s so much more than just food. The atmosphere is consistently welcoming and cosy, and the front of house are very professional. But the food is just fantastic time and time again! The quality never falters...

Visited with friends. The food & service were fine but the restaurant is compact with it seems little to deaden the noise. Our fellow diners were noisy so it was difficult for us to hear each other speak. Nice but doubt we will return.

Stay at Glenmhor lodges & saw fabulous reviews & they did not lie! Our best meal all week 😍 Jersey connection too & can’t wait to tell Allan at Green Island x

We had been unable to dine in Jon and Fernandos for several years due to Covid. Last nights meal was superb in every way. 8 of us in our own room with great service and such tasty food. I had the scallops and black pudding...

First class brilliant food and an amazing varied menu and standard of cuisine. Can't speak highly enough. It's a MUST...

Only visited this place 2 or 3 times over 6 years, and never disappointed. Wonderful attentive service, in high quality surroundings. Scallops were amazing, as was the venison main course, and fig compote was a truly amazing accompaniment. Can't recommend high enough. Would go much...

Lovely evening at Jon and Fernanda's. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Lovely meal, excellent presentation and 1st class service. Their grounding working under Andrew Fairlie shows through.

Lovely meal, well presented with excellent service. We skipped starters, and were warned that my wife's chicken would take a few minutes as meals were cooked to order. Good service. When it arrived it was excellent, as was my lovely pink lamb rump. Vegetables were...

Wow..... great experience. We had a large room for our dinner for 9 Saturday night. The service was first class from Fernanda and the meal...... we cant praise it enough!!! We would definately recommend the resturaunt. A must if your in the Auchterarder area. We will be back 😍

My husband and I have been coming to a holiday cottage near Auchterarder for a few years and only discovered Jon and Fernanda’s last year. And we’re very glad we did! We booked for dinner on what turned out to be a snowy February night,...

A lovely little restaurant on the Main Street in Auchterader. Definitely worth a visit, but recommend booking in advance. We received a warm and friendly welcome on arrival and felt safe with social distancing measures, hand sanitiser and the level of cleanliness, which was outstanding....

Great food excellent service definitely recommended 👌

Our second visit after being given a gift voucher from family. They did this as we had raved about this restaurant after our first visit. Yet again, the food was superb and obvious that fine ingredients are used and prepared with expert ability and assurance....

I booked this restaurant after a previous visit a few years back as I remembered how good the food and service was. I initially booked for the Wednesday evening but due to seeing family I had to change the night, well I have to say...

Fabulous cheese soufflé followed by pheasant We visited from Gleneagles and nice to support the local community We will come back

Jon and Fernanda's went to great effort for me as a vegan; I had a separate menu to choose from, with 2 lovely choices for each course. There was even a vegan alternative to the tablet at the end of the meal - such a...

The best meal I have had in like, memory (probably not the best ever but whatever!). Recommended for honeymoon or any time you want to eat amazing food.

I had a problem with my starter I found something in my food had it taken away and I did not what a replacement Said sorry a lot but did not make amends for their error

The best restaurant experience I have had in a long time. Food is excellent quality (and reasonably priced) Picture shown is scallops, pancetta and black pudding. Generous portion for a starter

Friendly and welcoming service. Food excellently cooked and presented, maybe a bit more mash with the venison, to soak up the delicious sauce. Desserts well what can i say, yes tasty, yes plenty, yes yes, i enjoyed the dessert if that didn't come across.

Excellent small restaurant. We don’t always manage 3 courses but the food was so good, we squeezed in a dessert each. The staff were very efficient and personable, and the lady owner (Fernanda?) was very friendly. It is shut on Sundays and Mondays, and I...

Lovely meal and cosy atmosphere

We had an excellent meal in Jon and Fernanda's. While a small restaurant the food and ambience were excellent and the staff were very attentive. Would certainly recommend Jon and Fernanda's if you are near Auchterarder and we will definitely eat there again.

Spent a couple of days away in Auchterarder and used Trip Advisor to see what what was on offer for dinner. We wanted a location within walking distance and decided to ring Jon and Fernanda's to book a table before heading up North from our...
