Narture Artisan Café in South Ayrshire

My husband and I discovered this gem of a restaurant whilst out for a run during the sunny weather of last week. We were unaware of the early bird dining between 3-4pm and went in at 3.50.pm. The restaurant was quite busy but we were seated immediately by very pleasant waiting staff. Whilst waiting for drinks we perused the menu which had a vast array of choices and included pork, chicken, fish and beef as well as daily specials for the amazing price of £24.95 for two courses or £28.95 for three. When the food arrived it was well presented, and extremely tasty. I chose the grenadine sliced pear and prawns Marie Rose salad to start, and my husband had the smoked salmon and prawns both of which were excellent. For mains we had the chicken breast in a creamy mushroom sauce and the braised beef in a red wine sauce. Both were delicious and came with steamed mixed veg and boiled potatoes and a separate helping of chips. We were quite full after that but my husband asked if he could take a profiterole dessert with us and the staff were only too happy to organise this. The bill was very reasonable and we left the restaurant knowing we would definitely be returning in the near future. 5 stars all round.

This place has got to be the worst Indian takeaway in Scotland. We ordered a shish kebab and a portion of chicken pakora recently. The shish kebab consisted of thick slabs of meat coated with sauce (disgusting) and I could have chewed on a bit of meat for a month at least. What can I say about the pakora. Dry, rubbery and inedible. The cost of just under £18!! You could only eat that muck if you were steamin drunk. Yuck. One particular bloke don't know if he's the manager. Was just plain rude. Will definitely never return.
