We use your restaurant regularly but last night was absolutely shocking!…you knew there was 13 of us coming for a meal! Service was absolutely appalling from the kitchen. Food coming out in drips and drabs…making lots of mistakes, having to be asked several times where peoples orders were, …really really poor. Your food is delicious but when I raised my concerns your answer is the staff..no staff are lovely…you need to be more organised..you then say you were actually going to tell me to go elsewhere the night before our booking as you knew you couldn’t cope !!..seriously!!??…..please please sort this out !
Passing by one day and being married to a Frenchwoman, it pays to spot things like this. I booked online and was called moments later, apologising for the lack of a high chair for our wee laddie.
No bother I cried as I was already salivating at the menu. Lewis, Esteban and the hidden Scott and Jennifer (chef and owner respectively) were awesome. Lewis was engaging but not in your face. Proudly explained the Kombucha ingredients (she had the sea buckthorn and orange whilst I went for Onion and Squash) were foraged.
Everything is understated quality. The tables look roughhouse but are lived in and have a well worn sheen. The cutlery was brought to you on linen and per diner, not a jingle jangle of steelworks.
We had the Brunch du Marche and Brunch Satine to share. The pastries were lush. Just enough hint of hazelnut to the chocolate filling and the creme pat wasn't too sweet, not too plain. The house baked bread was dense and flavoursome and the butter made on sight.
The eggs were perfect, and seasoned to perfection and the mountain of boudoin noir (black pudd to you Scots) was super, alongside the french tatties. The salmon just oozed quality, the cheese and charcuterie were served at the right temperature and even my coffee cup had a feel to it; properly chosen by someone who cares.
Our son slept peacefully for 85 minutes which was plenty to enjoy a wonderful meal in delightful surrounds. A coupe had gorgeous looking brioche rolls on a neighbouring table, and 4 chaps had the brunch and a family brought daughter and boy to another and all left happy.
We will be back. Vive Satine, vive la France.
All orders freshly made, so no soggy batter to worry about.
Also, it was a nice evening, so no problem waiting in the queue, exposed to the weather.
However, slightly funny, chemical smell from the fish and chips and a slightly strange taste.
We had one of our best meals of the trip at Sandemans. All of the dishes were delicious, but the whole experience was even better because the sommelier was so knowledgable and took our meal to a whole other level.
Tomé una refrescante taza de café y mi esposo tomó su bebida exprés favorita. El café y la bebida exprés estaban bien preparados. También comimos algunos rollos de desayuno junto con baguettes. Comida deliciosa y personal bien experimentado.
Best pizza ever , we have tried many other places throughout Edinburgh ,and also abroad , but this is thee best . Worth the wait for a freshly made authentic Italian pizza .Just beautiful and not overpriced.
Tengo la suerte de vivir en Arran, Escocia, una isla de belleza excepcional con un montón de excelentes restaurantes y pubs; sin embargo, a Arran le falta una cosa: ¡un buen restaurante indio!
Vine a Glasgow por trabajo y para visitar amigos, y para tener un curry decente. Mi amigo reservó una mesa en Ashraf’s Kitchen para la cena. La comida que nos sirvieron era sin duda no decente - era excepcional.
Definitivamente, esta no era la comida india corriente del molino; sí, tienen los clásicos, pero su menú también es emocionante y original. Los poppadoms fueron servidos con 6 salsas y dips diferentes - impresionante. El cordero en el biryani se derritió en la boca tierna. El mejor biryani que he tenido por lejos.
Fuimos servidos por Teena Ashraf cuyo entusiasmo y orgullo en la comida que este restaurante familiar sirve se sumó a toda la experiencia agradable. Todo el personal que habló con nosotros era servicial y amable - nada era demasiada molestia.
Pronto volveré a Arran y no sé cuándo tendré la oportunidad de volver a Ashraf; sin embargo, hay una posible solución...
¿Qué tal abrir una cocina Ashraf en Arran? ¡Necesitamos buena comida india!
Gracias por hacer de la visita al restaurante una experiencia encantadora, Teena.
I wish I could give more than 5 stars for their service.
We made last minute reservations for a large group of 10 and we were warmly welcomed.
The food was delicious and the guy serving us was so hospitable and super friendly!
I would definitely recommend this place!
