Moonfish Cafe in Aberdeen City

Overpriced, slow service, dry chicken main dish and even basic coffee was not made right, Luke warm, had to ask for sugar, just overall nothing special. Will not return.

We went there on September 25 2024 Wednesday at 7:30 with a reservation saying we were on waiting list. We decided to go anyway thinking that we could wait . When we arrived , we saw that the restaurant was closed and the interior was completely dark. There was no signage indicating when it would reopen. For a Michelin recommended restaurant,!we are really disappointed ☹️

Absolutely outstanding 👏 Some of the most delicious food I've ever tasted. Highlights were the scallops and monkfish! Can't wait to go back. Fantastic service, choice, flavours and atmosphere 👏 👌

Visited for the first time during restuarant week with colleagues for lunch. Meal was absolutely stunning and i will be back very soon! Highly recommend.

We visited in September 2024 for a birthday meal. The food was exceptional especially the pork ragu starter (not something I would usually order). Everything was so fresh and tasty and well presented. Staff were lovely. Wine was delicious. We ended our meal with a glayva which went down a treat. Would 100% recommend if you’re in Aberdeen We booked to go on a Thursday evening and most tables were taken. It didn’t feel overcrowded as the tables were well placed.

Very good restaurant, quality products, nice wine, the 4 of us had a good time for our reunion in Aberdeen... Small downside regarding our departure without a glance from our evening servers behind the bar.

Food was presented very well, fish cooked perfectly. Both fish main and dessert a bit mild for my taste, but that is personal preference. Starters (scallops and pork ragu) was fantastic. Service was great. Tuesday night was ok wrt to number of people but a lot of tables in a relatively small space. Might feel crowded on a weekend.

The food here is simply delicious. The aromas are striking, the pairing perfect. The place is simple but the service is gentle.

TL;Dr: Fine, cheapest course is 38£ for a meal, not worth it. A group and I went to the Moonfish Cafe for dinner since we wanted some fresh fish. The food itself, for a Michelin Star restaurant, seemed fine, but somewhat lacking in (artsy but not as impactful flavor wise). The service was good, with everyone being respectful. However, the biggest sticking point is the price. The expected cost was stated between 10-20£, but the lowest cost option is 38£. Is is simply not worth it, in my opinion.

Great food Very nice dishes Very good service for Scottish standards

Amazing restaurant . Staff friendly, knowledgable and service was excellent. . Food was exceptional and the flavours hit the spot . The restaurant’s ambiance was astounding and so quant . Cannot fault anything . Thank you Brian & staff

A total let down. The food is mediocre, not gourmet and very expensive. We don't recommend it.

It was our first time at the moonfish cafe but it won't be our last. Lovely service and atmosphere but the food was out of this world ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My vacation crew of 8 had dinner here last night. Food was terrific. Not a single calorie was left of the appetizers. Funny sight. Every dish completely empty. My daughter wasn't a fan of the gnocchi but it was good. I enjoyed the halibut. Wish there would have been more of it. 8 people was £557 so not cheap. Then again, we had lots of cocktails which were fairly priced. It was pretty loud inside but that's happy people.

Opinion from a French woman who has the habit of going to non-starred French restaurants in the Michelin guide Following a visit to this Scottish restaurant present in the guide, I think that the criteria are not the same as in France As a starter, asparagus gratinated with parmesan, I have already made the same at home As a main course, a perfectly cooked fish, excellent fennel with a kind of sauerkraut that doesn't fit at all with the rest from my point of view, but here I wouldn't judge, this dish perhaps being a function of Scottish tastes Dessert, a hot clafoutis with a big spoon of cream on top, no research, and my mother's clafoutis is better On the service side, young people crossing their arms behind the bar (the one I think is the manager was nevertheless very pleasant) In the kitchen we see the cooks chatting while we wait 45 minutes between each dish (when we see 3 cooks and 3 servers for less than 40 seats we don't really understand this wait) And the noise, horrible! Impossible to enjoy any food amid so much noise. As much as I have sometimes been concerned about an inequity between price and quality, but here I would not even go so far as to judge the price given that basically, little of anything was suitable. A positive point though, the children had fish and chips

I travel for food, and I have to say this was the best experience I have had to date Well done, moon fish I can't find fault with anything....and I look for it

Excellent. I will certainly come back. Great food and lovely staff.

Great meal the restaurant is great for a romantic meal but the later the evening gets the louder it gets.

Excellent food, Excellent Service, Excellent menu choice overall. I would highly recommend this quaint little restaurant opposite the church. Staff are polite and courteous which in this modern society we live in has become almost impossible to find. It's refreshing to find this type of service. We spent just over an hour here. To what I believe has the 100% potential to be Michelin star quality very soon indeed. The quality of food you taste on each and every mouthful is a delight on the taste Presentation is excellent as seen in photos. And this is what's special about this place. It ticks all the boxes in the itinerary. Bravo Moonfish Cafe. Great food.

We don't eat out often - but if Aberdeen were 'Home' this would be tge place to enjoy really good food in a pleasing setting. Good food, good ambience - grwat flavours. Happy customers!

Absolutely wonderful. Couldn't fault it. The food was incredible. Service fantastic.

Wonderful dining experience without fabulous food in an intimate setting. Highly recommend

We really enjoyed our dinner at Moonfish. Excellent food and a good atmosphere. Complete respect to the staff. Only two ladies serving, but constantly on the move and super-efficient. Thoroughly recomended. Update: We've now been 4 times and it's consistently good.

The food was spot on! The ingredients, presentation and more importantly the taste was spectacular. Would definitely visit again. It's a very quaint place, very simple and accommodating. We had the oysters, the hake, and the leek dish. The desert was dark chocolate with the salted caramel - absolutely divine!

Would recommend! Food was great.

Lovely place, excellent food and great service. Highly recommend.

Such a lovely meal! It was early Wednesday so not many people, but I think the place would work even full. Simple, calming and very comfortable room. Lots of wine and gin choices. Server recommended the perfect wine. We each had the 3 course meal- starter, main and dessert / cheese plate. we had oysters and broccoli as starters, the hake and chicken for mains and the lemon posset and cheese plate for dessert. Flavors were great- clever mix of familiar/comfortable with just enough difference to be interesting. Also everything was rich enough to be special but not regretfully heavy. Presentation and service were top notch. Left trying to figure out how I can get back to try the other menu items in the last 2 days I am in Aberdeen. I would come back here just to have another meal there!

Had a really delicious evening meal here. Certainly stands out as the best restaurant in Aberdeen. Casual but stylish. Helpful friendly service and great selection of wines. Definitely be back here again soon.

First time I've visited this lovely gem of a restaurant. It was lunchtime, so not a huge menu selection, but everything I had was very good and well worth the trip into Aberdeen.

Lovely lunch very tasty! Excellent friendly staff

Simply an amazing dining experience during our visit. Moonfish Cafe remains a top choice in the city.

Have eaten here before and was lovely. Food still is but it is a very small limited menu and all safe dishes which to be honest don't excite me. Might seem petty but bread was cold which I think is a sign of a good restaurant when it is warm. It's not that it's bad it's just overpriced for what you are being served.

My husband and I had a lovely Friday afternoon at Moonfish Cafe our food was so delicious. Restaurant was busy but a very relaxing atmosphere our visit made even better by our servers lovely Hannah and Coco who were very pleasant, chatty without being overbearing such lovely young women to have work in Moonfish.

Lovely meal mussels are fantastic , tasty chicken and the grilled hake with lobster bisque, is amazing Great service and highly recommend

I read about this place on a few travel blogs, so my husband and I made reservations. I can truly say I've never eaten anything quite like it in the best way possible. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, and we never felt like we were waiting for anything. Be sure to make a reservation, as it was full even in the off-season (early February). If you enjoy unique, flavorful dishes that are truly one of a kind, this is your restaurant.

Not that they need any help here but great food (monk fish in a lobster bisque) and service. Keep in mind the cancelation policy that seems to require 48 hours notice or possible loss of deposit.

The food is good but i wait like 1 and a half hour for the main dish and i don't really think it's enough for me,I got the monkfish for the main dish and I only get 2 pieces of it and a very long carrot.The starter is good.

We went in for the 4 course taster menu through itison. £75 well spent. The food was fantastic, each course was superb, the paired cocktail was nice too. The staff were lovely, very friendly and attentive but no over bearing. The only down side was it could have been warmer in the restaurant.... that said it was probably about 0°C outside so its understandable

Disappointing compared to the previous visits a couple of years ago Food very average.

Fantastic as usual and one of the only places in Aberdeen to do something original with food, but 2 1/2 hours for amuse-bouche and 3 courses is perhaps stretching things a bit (especially when the normal maximum allocated time is 1h45min - then you should be able to let people have their meal in that time span). Service impeccable.

Truly special. Friendly service, a delicious soufflé and a great wine pairing. The parfait was a unique dish, and I’m glad I picked it, even though I would typically go for chocolate. Extensive gin list, though I opted out this time.

The fish dishes are a must try, so fresh and tasty. The sauces and sides compliment the fish perfectly.

Lovely little 12 table restaurant hidden in Aberdeen! A wonderful combination of classic French/British and other world flavours beautifully presented in a warm welcoming atmosphere! Would recommend for anything from a casual pretheatre to a special night with loved ones!

Dinner with colleagues Really good place

Great little restaurant, one of the best things about Aberdeen.

Une découverte à Aberdeen, ce n’est pas du typique écossais mais les plats sont élaborés avec les produits du coin. Les rillettes de saumon fumé sont excellente. Le soufflé se tient parfaitement.

Very nice experience, we were welcomed in and accommodated despite the fact that we didn't make prior reservation. Good fish dishes. Excellent service. I highly recommend...

Deserves 6*. Superb! Stopped here at last minute on midweek before catching sleeper to London and couldn’t have been more pleased with choice. Really thoughtful menu, every course was superb. salmon rilletes, carpaccio beetroot, halibut, hake, pistachio tres leches, salty chocolate mouse. Great wine selection including some interesting desert wines. Excellent and very friendly service, lovely little place. Much better than many more expensive places.

Hidden gem off the beaten track which we knew about but never got around to going. We made a reservation mid week (Wed) for lunch, which wasn't a busy time when we arrived. Simple and very nice decor with tables set out for around 34 people. We opted to share the small plate of Grilled Flatbread Mussels , Wild Garlic Butter and our large plates were Hake Motoyaki, Aubergine, Miso Glaze, Coriander & Roasted Cod, Jersey Royals, Grilled Onions, Beurre Blanc with no dessert on this occasion. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked and presented beautifully. I highly recommend this wee gem and hopefully return to sample the food in a dinner setting on our next visit. Thank you!

The service was excellent and all the dishes we had were great. Great wine selection too.

We've been here twice before. Both times on an itison voucher, not to say that made it a cheap meal out by our standards at £75 before drinks. The first time we went in for lunch pre-covid times, both of us really loved the whole experience and vowed to go back again someday so when I saw there was a new voucher I bought it immediately. This time we went back for an early evening meal. Maybe it was just that our tastes are not cultured enough but this time we just didn't enjoy the majority of the food. Of the two starter plates, we both loved the parfait but the other thing, I forget the name but a little cheesy bread thing just wasn't enjoyable. Next course was partridge breast. Again, maybe this was just my lack of fine dining food experience but there were parts on the underside that looked raw to me so didn't finish the dish as it put me off. Next course was cod with vegatables in a Thai sauce. I liked some elements of the dish, but found the cod itself to be a bit soggy, lacking in any flavour and unappetising. Desert, chocolate tarte, no complaints whatsoever - it was amazing! Other than having to wait over half an hour for it to be served after clearing our last plates away. Shame about the food not being for us and the long wait for our desert. Other than that the staff were all great, attentive and polite. I'm afraid based on our enjoyment of the food last visit, this isn't somewhere we are likely to return to.

Excellente cuisine, plats délicieux agneaux cuit à merveille purée de brocolis avec sauce hollandaise un délice. Service efficace. Je recommande a 100%

This is a rare gem in a small town. Flavoursome food and friendly staff. Well deserved the Michelin star every year.

We had a great experience at Moonfish Cafe. The food was delicious, the staff who serving us was polite and friendly. The had a cozy and warm ambience. Highly recommended.

Such a friendly welcome and despite having no reservation and it was clearly very busy, they managed to squeeze us in for the hour we needed to enjoy what I have to say was one of the nicest plates of food. I had the hake. Every mouthful was delicious. My friend had the halibut which she also really enjoyed. She ordered a dessert which she loved as much as the excellent first course. The service was superb and the decor and ambience here was very good. We'd been recommended to come here by an extremely informative lady working at the maritime museum, who clearly knew what she was talking about!

Comida mediana, sem surpresa ou novidade! Serviço com apenas 2 garçonetes para todo um restaurante com mais de 8 mesas. Apenas 1 banheiro funcionando e precariamente. Não tem como dar mais do que 3, e mesmo assim sendo generoso.

I was out for a meal with my family at this restaurant. The food was lovely, amazing seafood and well presented. The service was good and the staff were welcoming. I understand that it is a popular restaurant and is often at full capacity but the volume was very loud. I think possibly because of the acoustics of a small area with a high ceiling which made it hard to talk with my family. The restaurant doesn’t seem to have air conditioning as during our meal it was uncomfortably warm inside. Thanks.

Very good food and value for the quality actually pretty good for pricey Aberdeen. Service was lacking (speed and incorrect billing) but this didn’t annoy as much as other significant concerns with this restaurant. The dining room is cramped and so noisy it is difficult to understand conversations on your own table. Uncomfortable chairs are provided but the tables were unacceptable. Stickier than a bar floor on a Saturday night, menus, glasses and anything that was on the table stuck to it and it was very unpleasant to be sat at them let alone eat off them. We were informed the stickiness was due to a Covid disinfectant used that had ruined the surface of the tables and they were going to close two days to address this “at some point!” A visit to the ladies restrooms by my wife and friend also raised the issue of an apparently long term leaking toilet which had soaked and rotted the floor so the door would not close properly. Raising this with one of the staff we were informed “they were aware but we’re going to close for two days at some point to fix it!” Such a pity but clearly Moonfish is living off its genuinely great food and it’s past. It desperately needs an investment so with regret I could not recommend it until after investment in the basics is made.

We went out for lunch with a group of 5. We made a reservation due to the fact that Moonfish Cafe had a Michellin recommendation for six years in a row. We were somewhat disappointed... After we were seated, we noticed that the table was very sticky and dirty. We didn't hit it off with the staff as well. This might be due to the fact that we had different expectations; we asked to be surprised with the menu, but the waitress did not get this. This led to an awkard moment; this was totally our fault. But the food was mediocre, dirty glasses, tasteless dishes, below average wine and warm beer (from a can). The service was okay, but nothing out of the ordinary. The price was okay, but do not expect Michellin standards, that just is not the case here.

Excellent choice on the menu and cooked to perfection

We went for lunch to have some exciting food and were not disappointed. Our starters and mains were fabulous and hong kong french toast was ok. We haven't booked but turned up at 12pm and the restaurant was quite empty at that time. However, everyone visiting should be mindful of the opening hours as we witnessed few groups coming after 1pm and being turned away (lunchtime open 12-2).

I’ve been looking forward to returning to Aberdeen just to eat at Moonfish having read Jay Rayner’s review in the Observer. Great service in a characterful dining room complemented the excellent food and wine. I will definitely be back next time I am in town.

Just had dinner with my brother and sister in law. Well worth the visit. Not only the food but a good selection of wines; including organic wines. I certainly will return. The only issue we had was with the fried artichokes; the fibres hadn't been removed. Apart from that it would have been a 5 star rating. No need to ask for a taxi the staff asked whether we needed one.

Made a mistake ale with posting. This is one of my favorite restaurants

Very disappointed with attitude . Had booked for this evening via a pre-paid £69 voucher with expiry date in 2 days time . Tested Covid this afternoon , phoned to explain that within social responsibility we would need to cancel because of this and asked if any possibility of short extension in circumstances . Point blank refused . Given that this is already paid for —so no loss to the restaurant I find this extremely poor . Never been , won’t be going .

Excellent meal would thoroughly recommend

Would have loved to have given this more. Independantly owned, well established restaurant that has survived the down turn of oil and gas in the city, along with the enslaught of covid. Although not a complete right off, there were enough negatives to prevent a higher score. The crayfish starter was fine, but nothing to write home about or whip up in 10 mins in your own kitchen. The fish and potatoes in the halibut main course were fantastic, however the wilted spinach hadn't been drained and sat in a pool of water. I queried the ducks egg with this dish, as parts were hot, parts were cold....it was supposed to be served cold, however on the side of a hot plate, ended up half/half. There is no door through to the kitchen from the restaurant and any atmosphere in the restaurant is broken with the noises from there and the strip light in your eyeline (if you're facing that direction). Endless pick ups of our jackets from the floor and no offer to put in the cloakroom didn't help our experience, nor did the very direct "we need your table back for 8" on arrival...no courteous greetings..."how are you, how was your day" etc. My hubby's vegetarian, and the Beetroot and cheese wonton starter, along with the souffle were great. Just unfortunate that with the negatives, prevents us venturing there again or recommending.

Fantastic lunch at Moonfish as always. Great food, great wine, quality playlist, fab service...

Great welcome fab fish 1st class we have returned several times and will do again Visited for lunch today fab as always

Visited on an itson voucher. Food was to die for absolutely delicious. Service not so good very slow. Although on breaking a glass the girls were quick to tidy up my mistake and give me another glass of prosecco. All things being equal I would definitely consider another visit.

My absolute favourite around here ! Place is lovely, service is perfect, warm, efficient without being pushy. Plates look amazing and this is nothing compared to what’s on them : food is fresh, perfectly prepared (fish among all), very nicely seasoned with a twist and adventurous touch. If I lived in Aberdeen, this would be my number one choice ❤️

Delicious tasting menu. Exquisite!

Great food and lovely service. Definitely recommend a visit.

Delightful eatery with fantastic seafood and a well thought out wine list. We thoroughly enjoyed a three course lunch here!

Dishes are delicious. Brilliant!

I walked past the restaurant a while back on the lovely cobbled street of Correction Wynd and it looked cosy and welcoming so decided must go sometime. Went for dinner and was very disappointed. The website said they had a relaxed atmosphere but this didn't seem to extend to our main waitress who was tense and uncommunicative. I asked what turbot rarebit was and she said its just a piece of turbot - it turned out rarebit meant cheese on top. The turbot was nicely cooked and the dish was fine without being spectacular. Our waitress seemed peeved when my girlfriend refused a wine top up (as designated driver). I tried to lighten it by smiling and saying she was driving but she just walked off without a word. Very odd I thought. Another waitress who took bread to our table was breezy and smiled and asked how we were - the contrast couldn't have been greater. My starter was crayfish salad, the mint in the yoghurt overpowered everything - this was not nice. My girlfriend had smoked duck to start and pork medley (cheek, belly, fillet) and said everything was very nice. There were good things about the service - our water was replaced without having to ask and the dishes were removed in a timely fashion once we had finished a course. Our waitress came with the bill, I paid in cash and asked for change - it came back and was put on the table without a word and without looking at me. Again very odd and contributed to what was, in the end, a poor experience overall.

We love Moonfish. Great food and a great atmosphere. Staff very friendly and food Fantastic.

We had high expectations. On our last visit we had the most delightful evening. This time we booked a table in advance. Got there at time at eight o'clock. The tiny place were over crowded with a lot of noise. We got a miniature table in front of the toilet door. The aperitifs were refreshing. We were promised another table. We ordered a bottle of Riesling and were again promised a better table. The Riesling was gentle and pleasant. Bread and butter came on the table and we were for the third time promised another table. We ordered the 4 cause menu. The dark sourdough bread was massive and delicious. We finally at half past eight we got the other table. It was equally small, noisy and sticky. The cured salmon was sublime with a hint of heat. The smoked duck was also very well prepared. To beautiful starters to our delight. We finished the dishes and waited and waited and waited. Twenty minutes past nine came the mains. The turbot was acceptably cooked but the slised potatos packed in a cube was raw and unedible. The pork belly had more time to improve in the owen. Tender and moist, a tru delight together with the cauliflower. The desserts were worth waiting for. The chocolate fondant were slightly over done. There were stil a small amount of liquid chocolate left in the middle. The rhubarb trifle a true delight. It would have been perfect even with out the colourfull decor pearls on top.

Excellent restaurant. Kind service, good food, good choice of wines.

The food was nice but not spectacular. I had a cauliflower velute which was very bland. Fish was good but tiny portion. Reasonable prices but portions very small.

Highly recommended. Excellent food, sea bass was delicious (slightly heavy on the dill). Spiced cake and liquorice ice cream was one of the best desserts I've ever had, beautifully composed, and rich enough to be perfectly cut through by some white wine. 5/5 easily one of the best meals I've had in Aberdeen.

A foodies dream. Amazing dishes great flavours

One of the best meals i’ve had this year. Before visiting Aberdeen, I’d read reviews and looked at the menu but I honestly was not inspired. Arriving at the restaurant, again I thought it looked rather simple and casual. Then reading the menu I was again not very inspired. But oh my I was wrong, the food was mind blowing, it was sooo good I wanted to come back the next day. My starter consisted of scallops buried inside a puff pastry in the form of an actual scallop. Wow, so yummy and so cool. My main had an Indian kick to it with the sauce although it was falafels and a hake piece. My partner’s food was also incredible and we honestly felt that anything one orders will be great in this place. As mentioned, the place was very simple and cosy without any specific decoration or anything. Staff were very simple, nothing incredible. Service took a while to be honest but we didn’t mind so much. Value for the meal was great also, 75£ for two for a two course meal and a drink; it felt like a bargain. This restaurant is close to Michelin star status in my opinion. Highly recommend.

Simple food done REALLY well.the

Delightful lunch here at Moonfish. For many years this was a regular lunchtime spot when I worked in Aberdeen Town Centre and I missed it. The food is just as good, and the menu is as interesting as ever. The staff are great, easily and enthusiastically answer questions about the food and take an interest in what we think. This is a small busy place and making a reservation is recommended, the lunchtime helpings are just right for a midday meal. We enjoyed being here, but be aware it's a busy place which can be noisy. Also the booking site give very strict times for occupation of the table. I think we had 1 hour 45 minutes for a table of two - which is more than adequate. No idea if they allow longer in the evenings. Thanks to everyone at Moonfish, and a special thanks to the chef for creating such a great menu!

Nice customer service attention

Utterly delicious meal. Can't wait to go back and sample more of the menu. A genuine delight.

Magnificent. One of my favourite restaurants in Aberdeen. I had preconceptions before going that the food would be tiny portions and I hoped it wouldn't be overrated. The menu was well thought out, fresh and cooked impeccably. I believe the owner was a finalist on MasterChef and the quality of cooking shows. I'm already looking forward to the next time I come here! Edit: Another trip, this time we had complications with our party being unable to attend and Moonfish were excellent at working around us. The food as ever was exquisite and I still think this is the best restaurant in Aberdeen .

Outstanding food We'll be back Curtains or tablecloths for the noise would make it all even better

Oh my gosh - the best food hands down in Aberdeen. Will return!

Great food, nice atmosphere and engaging service with loads of advice about what suited my intolerances. Will keep going back.

Top notch food and service, catered splendidly to some complex dietary requirements. Made us feel comfortable and happy.

Lovely waiting staff but the food was a disappointment. To start I ordered the prawn toast which was basic and greasy. Two of us ordered monkfish for the main course and it was served barely warm and raw. We sent the monkfish back and instead I was served halibut which was also raw... and the other monkfish came back again still raw...We enjoyed the dessert which was on the house. I have seen a lot of older reviews for this restaurant which are good - maybe they have changed the chef... I would not recommend.

Sehr feines Essen mit Menü Zusammenstellung. Freundlicher, aufmerksamer Service. Empfehlenswert.

Truth be told, I expected a lot better

just want to start by saying I don’t normally leave reviews for this one I thought I had to do we were at moonfish last night for the first time since Covid and to say I was disappointed would be an understatement our booking was for 730 didn’t receive restarter till 810 which was the pate which was very salty and average my husband had the monkfish which he says was was was nice but came with nothing but a cucumber salad I had the lamb which was very fatty grey again came with Nothing more than a slight piece of lettuce and some broccoli on the on the good point this front of house staff were nice service was a bit slow but they were nice we have been we have went to moonfish on many occasions but after this is a very disappointing meal don’t think we will be returning Manager did ask why I had left so much lamb it was taken off our bill but this has been the first time we have been out for something to eat since Covid so disappointed after looking forward to this so much

I’ve been to this restaurant on 2 consecutive nights. The restaurant sits between 20 and 25 people. Wine selection by the glass is 3x store bottle price. They don’t seems to have a sommelier. The first night the young waitress got my wine wrong but I didn’t protest at that age all I know is wine from grape and service attitude is sincere and good. I had Carpaccio as starter and Monkfish and Grilled Halibut. They are all good. Spoiler alert what delighted me and very innovative are not documented on their menu at all. I’ve been to many fine dinings and can take food objectively that are not typically my taste. Do not read bellow if you want some surprise and exploration. Carpaccio - This is a very think cut not the thin type. Paired with walnut, blue cheese, sweet onion and slight bitter salad the flavors just mix alright. Char Siu Monkfish - This is quite innovative. Cantonese char siu slight sweet paired with northern Chinese prickled spicy cucumber (this is so northern Chinese original flavor, you may associate kimchi with Korean but this is not but no need to debate) and sour cream. It would be already innovative enough without the sour cream as a Chinese dish. But you won’t get told it’s of Chinese origin in the menu so just enjoy the surprise. Pair with a good white wine something from France of cool climate. Grilled Halibut - This is a normal European dish. At the beginning I was thinking it’s ok nothing special. But they put capers in and part of the fish meat had that flavor without eating a caper pulp. This is innovative with a delight, although a small one.

Hatten hier zu Mittag zwei Gänge gegessen. Die Auswahl an Gerichten ist überschaubar aber ausreichend und abwechslungsreich. Die Servicekraft an diesem Tag war sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Das Ambiente ist angenehm zurückhaltend und modern. Die Gerichte selbst waren allesamt sehr lecker und exzellent zubereitet. Das Beef Carpaccio hatte für mein Empfinden fast zu viele intensive Zutaten, das die einzelnen Komponenten fast etwas untergegangen sind, dennoch war die Kombination sehr gelungen. Am Monkfish gibt es absolut nichts auszusetzen. Die asiatisch angehauchte Zubereitung war aus meiner Sicht makellos. Hier bekommt man gehobene Küche und sehr guten Service zu einem fairen Preis. Sehr zu empfehlen und nicht umsonst im Guide Michelin erwähnt.

Really great meal. Friendly & accommodating staff. Signature monkfish entree was spicy and delicious, lived up to the hype.

A truly lovely place with easy going service and unusual flavour combinations, but which works very well together!
