Vovem Meat & Liquor in Aberdeen City

Our first visit to Vovem was really good. We enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. The place was kind of dark and smokey , from the open grill. The steaks and sides that we had were nicely cooked. Cocktail that I had was really good. Oh and we also had a baked camembert as a shared starter. I think our eyes were far too big for our bellys. We ordered far too much food but it was great. Unfortunately the week after we went for our meal there was a terrible fire at Vovem. But despite this I really hope they manage to rebuild and come back even better. We were really looking forward to returning for their Sunday roast that we saw advertised.

Unfortunately they cooked a little too hard. Will visit again once fire damage is repaired. Quite pricey for what you get and very minimalist plates but definitely recommend.

Food was nice,except steak was chewy,i did complain but no response from the foreign server ,otherwise nice place for beef

Great service, without being overbearing. food was 1st class throughout.

Overpriced! Disappointing steak..

We received a voucher for this restaurant & we were eager to discover what the hype was about. Unfortunately it fell short on quality & value. We both had steaks ribeye for my husband & sirloin for me. Arrived on a cold plate… just that a slab of meat no garnish… chips & vegetables are extra. Come on £7.50 for a side of mushrooms! This is Aberdeen not London. Steaks were ok.. just ok we have had way better. Total bill came to £130 for two people no starters or desserts. Main course & 2 glasses of wine each. Really got the impression this place thinks it’s way better than it is. Dining experience at Miller & Carter is so much better than the fare here.

I've been been here twice within a short period. While the service is good and the atmosphere is nice. I've come away with the feeling of the food being mediocre both times, especially in consideration of the price. The first time I had the ribeye, which was too thin cut to my liking. The second time I tried the flat iron, which was flavorless and exceedingly tough (even for a flat iron). The steaks were cooked correctly on both occasions (medium rare). The triple chips were underwhelming for 7£ chips. On both occasions I had different red wines, where the common first impression was that it was good wine being served way warmer than it deserved.

Rump steak comes at a price of £30, so I anticipated this must be something superior, even out of this world - and fries, mushrooms, vegetables not included - an extra £7 each . Imagine a very thick slice of topside beef joint, that's what the rump steak was like . It resembled no rump steak I've ever had in 50 years . I ordered medium rare - it was actually medium, bordering on well done . I'm seriously doubtful it was actually rump steak at all and not a piece of topside. The very thick fries were okay but nothing special. Some steaks on the menu are priced at £80 !!! Would I have got the real deal if I had paid such an extortionate amount? I've no idea but I'm glad I didn't risk it . The house red was mediocre costing about £7 per 250ml.. I'm guessing it was the kind of bottle costing £7 in Tesco , so I suppose that's normal restaurant mark up but they could have chosen better for the money. I don't say this restaurant shouldn't be visited .....just be wary if ordering very expensive steaks ...

The rib eye was very poor, no idea what was going on there but had to send it back for a different type of steak. And for 36 pounds as well Great service, nice wine however

Steaks were not left to rest so plate was swimming in haemoglobin making any sauce inedible. The broccoli on the fish dish was raw, not chargrilled at the chef advised the server when we mention it, it was raw, there were no char marks on it. Same with the broccoli and cauliflower gratin, it was inedible, cauliflower was rock hard, no excuse given by the chef for that. Thoroughly disappointed. We did notice we were not the only table to have problems. We were also not given the choice of tipping, even though we complained and were not able to eat some of the meal, the tip was automatically added. In fact I wasn’t even shown the bill, I had a gift card which was taken from the table and brought back with an unitemised receipt showing tip had been added and taken off my gift card. Whole experience was very disappointing.

40 Pounds for a steak served with no garnishes. Just thrown passive aggressively onto the plate. Asked for it mid rare and got it mid well. Staff didn't really seem to have the time for me. Pretentious and not worth the money. I'd stick to M&C or Estabullo or some other steakhouse in future.

First time in Vovem after seeing man v food on YouTube and the lad was correct. It’s possibly one of the best things I’ve put in my mouth and it’s a close second to polish cheese cake. Chips were amazing pork belly bites were amazing with that sauce and the steak was outstanding. Very quick service and the place is really nice. Nothing to complain about. We did the two for £60 night and it was the perfect amount of food. We will be returning again next month

This is a fantastic place and was a recommended place from the hotel we stay in. The meat was great 🥩 and also the sides super delicious 🤤 the portions were just right and also the dessert was very well done!! The service is also very good and the waitress and the waiter were very observant and kind - combined with a great atmosphere made a special evening - thanks for that!

Sadly our visit didn't really live up to the hype. My steak was meant to be medium rare but arrived undercooked, rare at best but probably almost blue. Waiter didn't appear back until my partner had finished her meal and so I didn't want to wait for a replacement and be eating by myself. The waiter offered a complimentary desert but I just wanted to leave. As we we on a voucher we paid for the steak I didn't eat which means I will remember this for the wrong reasons and sadly will never go back.

Very nice restaurant. Loved the vibe and the decor. Menu was good and prices seemed OK till I got the food then I did question the value for money. I've had better steaks in London for the same price. Don't get me wrong the food tasted really nice and I lived the bone marrow jus. Just the quality of the meet didn't match the price. The mash was amazing! The in house larger was not the best but was not bad for the price. The pudding was to die for!!

Jess our waitress was great. Sadly the steaks were nothing short of abysmal. The ribeye was thinner than my bank account! After requesting to talk to the manager about the thickness of our ribeyes, he strutted over with sheer arrogance, explaining ‘this is how we do them here’. Real shame.

The venue is really nice. No complimentary bread or water when you arrive. Ordered entrees and these took so long to come I had to ask where they were, was told that the kitchen staff were so busy yet the place was half empty. One of the entrées was bread and olive oil and the bread was tasteless and dry. The olive oil was bland and boring. The mains and sides were excellent. The drinks, you order and nothing appears and when it did,it was not what was asked for. Overall, disappointing

We were here for my partners birthday and were served by Tristan. Tristan was very friendly and made us feel very welcome on our first experience at Vovem! The steak came out quick and perfectly cooked, overall great experience and we will be back!

One of the finest places in Aberdeen. I’d recommend the Sunday roast with its perfectly cooked meat and great arrangement. Take the time to have a wee chat with the waiter/waitress - very friendly and happy to work in that place. Service if very good, effective and not invasive - definitely worth every minute and penny there

Food is very good, no doubt about that, but seriously seriously overpriced. 8 quid for a wee bowl of mash, and another 7 quid for a few bits of boiled broccoli... honestly, if you go to Carter and Miller you get just as good steak at a fraction of the price.

Excellent food. Steaks were cooked perfectly. The chips were ok but the portion was very small when it was supposed to be for two to share. For the price there should have been double the amount. The deserts were ok but ridiculously small. My wife had the Dolce Deleche and was hardly anything there. It looked like it was thrown together. Most restaurants would include sides with your steak and larger portions but it's extra here. Overall the food was very good but expensive when you have to add on everything else. Price for portions is the let down.

By far best Steak restaurant in Aberdeen... Blows Miller and Carter out of the water. Recommend 1000per cent! Don't delay book and go!

Food was standard not great. Waitress stood about talking to some ex punter or something. 5 stars for the cocktail place downstairs!

It is a beautiful restaurant but when we arrived it was practically empty. On a bank holiday weekend we were surprised by that. Our steaks arrived and both were overdone, mine especially was burnt and dry (meant to be medium well). We had to then wait for replacements which again were not cooked as we asked, and therefore we decided at that point to leave. The chef was not accepting that he was at fault and made me feel very uncomfortable. We were extremely disappointed by this, our first visit, and we will sadly not be rushing back.

On vous accepte comme clients même si vous ne buvez pas d'alcool (malgré leur nom), sympathique. Mais attention, le chef de salle vous demande directement si vous souhaitez de l'eau. Vu qu'il faisait chaud, j'ai accepté (pensant qu'ils s'inspiraient des USA).. Et en fait, elle m'a été facturée ! Pour de l'eau du robinet dont j'ai bu 2 petits verres... Heureusement, la serveuse était un amour ! Le plat a pris du temps à arriver alors qu'il n'y avait pas beaucoup de tables à servir (on était 2 à devoir "se faire encore servir" sur les 5). Une fois arrivé, je constate que la viande n'est pas assez cuite, un comble pour un restaurant spécialisé dans la viande.Surtout quand on ne demande pas la cuisson au client,ça doit être impeccable. Il y avait beaucoup de chutney. Ce qui fait qu'on avait du mal à avoir un autre goût dans la bouche. Les frites étaient très fades, le ketchup avait un goût bizarre et la mayo, on ne sentait son goût qu'à la fin. Concernant le dessert, je suis choquée ! On me l'a servi cramé ! Tout le dessous était cramé et on me l'a servi, comme si de rien n'était. Je veux bien qu'il s'agisse d'un restaurant de "viande" mais on ne sert rien de cramé à un client ! Surtout sans s'excuser. Ayant perdu assez de temps comme ça, je n'ai pas demandé un nouveau et suis partie. Comme on pouvait s'y attendre, restaurant cher !

Husband ordered rare steak…it was not ,overcooked and tough. He complained and it was replaced. Grandsons was tough but he was embarrassed to complain, sons bone marrow sauce was tasteless. A birthday “cake” was ordered as it was a 21 st birthday..they had forgotten. All in all an expensive evening for a special birthday that was very disappointing.

Nice location and pretty and gentle manager gave us a fantastic dinner : hamburger and roast beef excellent. They have also a variety d beers and ciders

First time there. Totally brilliant. Good value for money. Great atmosphere and staff.

Nice atmosphere if a little deserted , good helpfull staff great cocktails

I have been here on many occasions and the food and cocktails are very good. The servers are very polite and nice.

Great steak. Was only in Aberdeen for a few days and wanted an authentic Angus experience. This is definitely it!

Overrated, expensive, need a reality check!

To start, They made the best old-fashioned I have ever had. The entrees were hilariously small. We ordered the scallops... And it came with just two and the pork belly. While delicious, it is very much less than expected. They were out of some of the steaks we ordered so ended up settling with the wagu ribeye. It was overcooked from the rare I ordered to about medium... But the flavor. It was absolutely, melt in your mouth delicious. The other steaks our table ordered were about 50/50 on correctly cooked, but all were delicious. The wine and service were also exceptional. I would come back here if in Aberdeen again and would recommend that you come here if you are. Overall it was great with a few shortcomings.

Food was amazing - great place for steak. Large selection of wines and some from unusual wineries. Try the Sijnn Malgas red - you won’t regret it

Brilliant service, food was outstanding and everyone was really nice and helpful. A mist visit in Aberdeen.

Had better steaks at Wetherspoons.....

Beautiful steak, lovely surroundings and friendly service, will definitely be back.

Went here for Mum's birthday for 2nd year...Have to say, we were pretty disappointed that the overall standards have dropped sadly. Took a long time to get served drinks and for food order to be taken. Staff were all very nice but food was not of the same quality of last year. My daughter's and my steaks were both very chewy and rather tough to cut (1 sirloin, 1 rump both medium rare) and a few of the side dishes (particularly mashed potatoes) were cold. Didn't want to complain and cause a fuss but it really wasn't worth the money and was surprised at how poor it was compared to last year! Also, the disabled access lift was full of baby high chairs, which isn't really very convenient for someone who has mobility issues to have to wait till they are all cleared before they can use the lift. Overall rather disappointed.

Sunday lunch and drinks. Had the Sunday lunch sharing platter. Wow what value and quality! Beef was absolutely amazing! Sides were great. Lovely resteraunt, meat cooked on wood stoves and grills, smells amazing. The best Sunday lunch I've had in a long time, highly recommend. Large selection of wine, house larger is good. As seen on Adam Rickman eats Great Britain (man vs food bloke)

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and even if the coctail you desire is not on the menu they will happily make a cocktail of your choice. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back.

Best meal we've had in Aberdeen .Food was faultless.Atmosphere was strange .Music more suited to a club at times ,rather loud .Waiting staff good but could have been quicker considering the place was not busy at all when we arrived . Overall a great night .Thankyou .

Ideal for steak lovers. You have to reserve a table on weekends. Lovely atmosphere. You can park in union row or golden square car park or Bon-accord square.

We came here to celebrate my birthday. Amazing food, amazing customer services amazing Deco.

Nice place, good food, excellent service.

We 've only been there for drinks. My negroni was ok-ish. The margaritas my friends ordered were not nice so they ordered something different. The place is lovely and very nicely decorated, the staff was ok but if you go try to stay away from the stands at the front. The door opens frequently and it's freezing

Excellent service Awesome food Great Ambience

Excellent steak and very well priced lunch menu

After seeing this restaurant on several travel blogs, my husband and I decided to try it out. On a Monday night, it was fairly empty (in the off-season in February), but their reservation system was easy enough. The cocktails were top tier, and the steaks were cooked perfectly. Wonderful experience!

Fish was absolutely incredible, best meal I have had in Aberdeen and in Scotland (and best fish I have had in the Uk, I am Spanish so I have high expectations…)! Definitely could recommend the sea bass. Also, service: 10/10! Our waitress was so nice!

Wow! Blown away by the Monkfish! Absolutely delicious and amazingly paired with mango sauce. Best meal I have had in Aberdeen and will deffo come back! Well priced and super friendly staff who were chatty and also very helpful, given we were in a rush!

Very cool place, modern but elegant. Very kind staff. The waiter who served us was super nice and kind. Excellent food, delicious desserts too. Wide choice of wines also by the glass. Prices in line with the quality offered. I will recommend it

Ok so long story short: I was there in December 2023. A man who was next to door was very nice and helpful and told me about their restaurant and took me to a table. Waitress was really nice too but kinda busy bc as far as I could see she was only one working atm as a waiter but fortunately I wasn’t a needy guest lol. But we r here for food and the food was marvellous. Bone marrow butter suited to my steak perfectly! I did choose my fillet of beed from a regional herd and it was a reallyreally good choice! It cooked perfectly “blue” bc heat inside was more than right, it was just perfect more to this this meat was just so delicious. The side dishes which I took with my meat like potatoes cooked in geese fat and lil sweet carrots were soooo good. Definitely gonna be back there as soon as I will be back in Aberdeen. This is a place that I can recommend anyone!

Great quality , well cooked locally sourced fillet steak with generous sides .

This was recommended by someone local, we had the Steak Night for Two. Choice of two either a Ribeye or Sirloin, two sides and sauce. Sides of triple cooked chips and roasted vegetables were good and steaks were perfectly done. Our server was friendly, had a great smile and overall the experience was very good.

Attentive and friendly service and fantastic food. Staff knowledge of wine was exceptional.

Absolutely fantastic meal. Best fillet steak I’ve ever eaten. Truffle chips to die for and peppercorn sauce was divine. Service was brilliant and the waiter was super attentive. Can’t wait to go back

First, a perfectly cooked tomahawk steak for two. Then we had the roasted garlic and chive mashed potatoes which were surprisingly amazing with the creamed cabbage and crispy smoked pancetta. With a well picked tempranillo reserve in the glass it was as good as it gets. On my way back from the toilet I looked to look at the fire in the open kitchen when I was invited to come closer to look. I then had a nice conversation with the chef about how they cook the meat. They didn't have to do it, but they were very open and friendly. Take service was good as well. Overall we couldn't have asked for more and it was so much better than some other, more recent experiences.

This is now the 3rd visit to this Wonderful establishment. I really can't fault the place. The attention to detail on everything is on another level. There is a real warm and welcoming feeling, every time you come here. The food is fantastic and the cocktails hit the spot. We look forward to our next visit. 😀 Highly recommend.

Best steak I've had in a very long time !!!!! Also cocktails are top class

We had the oysters and some drinks. The oysters were delicious, we rated the vinaigrette accompaniment. Sam provided us with great service, checking in and chatting to us and making sure our cocktails were to taste, which they were. The food around us also looked great, would like to come back and try other menu choices.

As good a Sunday roast as you’ll get. Great service too.

Classic steak house with a great wine selection.

Service was exceptional. Food was good, but I had higher expectations. Steak was very thin, but cooked appropriately. Scallops and (huge) Lobster tail were cooked perfectly.

We visited for our Anniversary meal on Friday & had booked for 8pm but on arrival our table wasn't ready so we were asked to take a seat at the bar & the staff would get us a drink which was fine & we didn't have to wait long before our table was ready. We had a few questions re steaks which staff were happy to answer, we decided on Chatuebriand but at £87 were shocked that it came with nothing but the choice of two sauces everything else was extra! so we went for sauteed mushrooms, triple chips & truffle & parmesan....£6 for 8 chips is a joke!! We had a bottle of red wine.... the most money I've ever spent on a bottle £33 wine was very overpriced/marked up! Now don't get me wrong the food was lovely but while eating we were still in shock over the price & what we had to pay on top of that for sides...I had been told prior that Vovem wasn't great value for money & that another city steakhouse was much better value but decided to give you a go. When we got our bill we were again shocked that the drinks we'd been led to believe were complimentary due to our table not being ready were on there along with a chicken burger we didn't have & a charge for the water they automatically put on our table which was obviously just tap water! So all in all the two waiters who dealt with us were excellent, food was good but not good value for money, very overpriced for what we got, we were meant to have a drink downstairs but didn't bother & we'll not return there are better places in Aberdeen.

Had an enjoyable Wednesday night, itison sponsored tea here. Voucher was for a sharing charcuterie or cheese board and a glass of wine for two. We opted for the charcuterie and swapped one glass of wine for a soft drink. The girl who seated us did manage to upsell us into ordering a couple of sides too but wasn't pushy about it. The charcuterie was very good but the pork belly and triple cooked chips were both delicious, some of the best of either we've had! I also tried a vovem lager which was also very good. The decor is very slick and modern, staff were all pleasant and attentive. Only criticism was the young chap coming back to the table to clear away glasses immediately after we settled the bill. He did say repeatedly no hurry but felt he should maybe have just waited a few minutes at least.

Great food, fantastic service, and excellent cocktails. I definitely recommend it.

We had a lovely night at 21 Crimes. They have a really cool menu, where you answer a series of questions and the bar staff make you a unique, tailored cocktail. Calum and Morgan were fantastic and created some awesome drinks for us!

Had a very nice meal service was excellent thanks

This place is not as good as it thinks it is….. The food was very disappointing, service was excellent tho, front of house and waiting staff were very well versed in all aspects of their work and the menu. When you go to a steak restaurant and the best thing is the Mac & cheese something is very wrong. Ordered prawns which were so over cooked they were inedible and sent back, they were like rubber. Never had gambas pil pil with a lemon in with them, the lemon was like mush which confirmed they’d been microwaved or in the oven for a long time. Chateaubriand despite being ordered medium rare was overcooked and had a bone dry crust around which I had to cut off, to make a chateaubriand that dry takes real effort, or a hot oven or both…. When I asked why was told on each occasion “that’s just how it goes” or “it would just come back the same” My previous visit a year ago was so very different so it’s sad to see how kitchen standards have dropped.

This is our favourite place to eat in Aberdeen. We’ve eaten here twice in the last week. On Sunday we had the sharing platter roast and on Thursday had the steak offer for 2. We love everything about Vovem from the moment you come through the door the staff are there greeting you in a friendly genuine manner. They are knowledgeable about the food and drink. The ambience and service is excellent. The food is top quality and you can tell a lot of care has gone into selecting suppliers.

The steak was nice but had better as it was very thin compared to rib eyes that I've had before maybe they cut it thinner because it was on there mid week meal for 2 deal, when we walked in they asked if we wanted a glass of water only to find out they changed us for the water on the bill, but the worst part was the triple cooked chip were more like half potato's definitely not chips very disappointed won't go back

Locale di classe con cibo di qualità! Consigliato!

Tried Vovem for a second time after being underwhelmed with the service in February. What a difference! The service was incredible from start to finish. The food was excellent, definitely the best place in Aberdeen for steak.

Muy recomendable, el mejor restaurante en el que comimos en nuestro viaje por Escocia. Kelsie fue un encanto, nos atendió con una sonrisa en todo momento.

Uno de los mejores restaurantes de Aberdeen. La carne está muy sabrosa, además de ser de calidad. Eso sí, lo pagas. El lugar es bonito y elegante. Merece mucho la pena ir, para darte un homenaje o celebrar algún evento.

Steak was great , cocktails 🍹 good , decent place

Perfectly cooked steak, with excellent service, wine slightly overpriced but the overall experience was tops

Carne di ottima qualità, cucinata in maniera eccellente! Da provare!

We were at Vovem for our son's wedding. Well what can I say every member of staff were amazing, Venue was stunning and the food was excellent. They made it a very special and memorable day. Thank you so much.

Booked for an early evening midweek meal. Was greeted on arrival and as shown to our table all the staff spoke , this was the same on leaving, they were all smiling and polite. Extensive menu, we went for the sharing bread selection to start which was really tasty, a variety of breads, chilli butter ( which was delicious), balsamic & oil and olives. As beef farmers we chose steak got our mains, they tasted good albeit mine ( medium rare) was slightly overcooked however my husband swapped with me. We had sides of chunky chips and mushrooms in garlic butter and sauces - blue cheese and peppercorn. My husband had a large glass of red wine. Service was very good, I think it was the manager. Nice , modern surroundings, it was quiet when we were there but expect it’s buzzing on a busy weekend evening.

Ambiente molto nelle e qualità della carne molto alta, il personale è molto disponibile, ovviamente non economico

Nice atmosphere. OK food. Cocktails seemed a bit small. Had the 2 for 1 steak special. It was as if they cut a real steak in half & served it to 2 people. Would lose this special. Probably would have enjoyed eating off the regular menu as the cooking & service was good. I'd give it another chance if I was a local.

Excellent lunch! Meat was delicious,we ordered Angus Aberdeen and a kid's meal.Lovely ambience and staff.

We have been to Vovem and 21 Crimes on 3 or 4 occasions over the last couple of years and have always had a great experience. Unfortunately on this last occasion the experience was completely different and has really put us off returning. The food wasn't great - my partner's steak was cold (both steaks the same and both cooked medium rare) and looked like it had been made in advance compared to mine. We ordered a side of mushrooms which had a long black hair in them which was very off putting. The triple chips were also hard in the middle and not piping hot. We thought we'd give it the benefit of the doubt and head to 21 Crimes for a cocktail - I wish we hadn't! We were given the cocktail menu by a member of staff from the restaurant and we're told we could either order off of this or following the "menu" from the 21 Crimes bar (which is trying too hard anyway). Unfortunately we were 'greeted' by a staff member (female, green hair) who appeared very stressed for someone with no patrons as the bar was dead! We were seated by the staff member from the restaurant in a booth with the cocktail menus. Around 15 minutes later (baring in mind we were the only ones there) I went up to the bar to ask if we could order drinks. In hindsight, we should have left at this point. She told us she would take our order at the table so I went to sit back down again. Another 10 or so minutes passed before she came over (again, no other customers around!) and then proceeded to tell us that we couldn't order from the cocktail menu we had been given as it was restaurant only and had the menus literally taken out of our hands. We asked can you not make that then? She then, in a very flustered manner agreed to make the drinks (as is that not the whole point of the menu anyway?). Anyway, another 20 minutes passed until we received the drinks, which were so poorly made. Such a disappointing experience and unfortunately don't think we'll be returning.

A warm welcome from the staff. Tried the steak for 2 deal. Absolutely delicious, steaks cooked to perfection, sides and sauces so tasty. Staff knowledgeable and attentive but not intrusive. A wonderful dining experience which we would thoroughly recommend.

Certo costosetto per una bistecca. Comunque splendido ambiente e ottimo servizio.

Unreal. Best restaurant in Aberdeen easily

Superb restaurant! Great food, excellent service. We were there to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We were looked after by Molly and nothing was too much trouble. She is a credit to the establishment! We will be back!

Taken here for fathers day lunch, was not sure what to order. Saw the roast beef and we opted for that and a pudding. Service was great (3 different servers) food was wonderful, also got the pork belly as a side (was fantastic). Sticky toffee pudding (Mmmmm) and a couple of beers to wash it down. Just a very nice place, looks quiet when you go in as the bar is at the front but out the back in the eating area was very busy. Will be back some evening to try a steak…

Out for a birthday meal, was sat at a table by the bar and door, away from the main restaurant. The food was fine, had to remind staff for the extra chips we ordered and never received an order of water that we were charged for. Service was pretty lame, tried to catch attention several times to clear table and order drinks and such. Looked at out dirty main plates for at least 10 minutes. Food can't complain though, that candied pork belly was a highlight. Mentioned to staff while paying bill that service was pretty shoddy but they accepted it, they agreed that table was one of the less managed ones. Perhaps that acknowledgement will lead to better service for future diners. In a few words... I wouldn't rush back

Arrived for the steak night for couples . We ordered 2 sirloins - with the chunky chips and garlic prawns as sides . My steak was over cooked to well done - asked for medium . Partners was medium . Was so hungry I just ate it wasn’t bothered to complain and wait for another one . Got about 9 chunky chips and the prawns were soggy. It just think for the price or £50 it was a bit miserable . A bit over rated to be honest .

Service was ok, food was disappointing. Not bad, just could be a lot better. I asked for my steak rare, and it was quite well done. I didn’t want to make a fuss because I wasn’t paying…. It was at least decent in spit of being over cooked, and the bane marrow jus was good. My wife’s chicken was dry and bland.

Fantastic meal, service and place. Only let down is cocktails. Not the best

Amazing service and amazing people, so kind and the place is beautiful. Thanks to Victoria (the Lithuanian girl waitress), she was absolutely amazing (like everyone one!) The food was great as well so Thank you very much!

Carnivore’s paradise! Must visit!

Lovely place with very professional and friendly staff. We had lunch time menu which was fine but I'd go for the dinner menu next time.

My all time favourite restaurant in Aberdeen. Top quality local produce. Extenstive wine list to pick from. Service always very professional. Have never had a bad meal.

Outstanding service and truly delicious food! can’t believe I’m paying under £20 for one of the best lunch experiences I’ve had in Aberdeen! Highly recommend!

Disappointed was there for a birthday celebration for 6 people. Two people ordered individual Sunday roast but my partner and myself ordered the sharing platter Sunday roast. It came plated and the only thing we got to share was a dish of cauliflower and cheese...
