Oh my. What a treasure we stumbled upon. Absolutely, we had the most delicious food here, yet from the first moment of genuine, kind, friendly staff and beautiful decor it was a highly memorable event. Staying at the hotel next door, we popped in without a booking and were quickly and kindly found a table. I definitely recommend booking as it would be a travesty to miss this! Faced with the (we are so very blessed even to be able to travel and eat out) first world difficulty of choosing from the extensive and drool worthy menu we settled on sharing the Goats Cheese Salad and the Hot Hen Pizza. With a glass of white. Of course. I have often shared food but have never before not wanted to even try the second dish until my taste buds had finished dancing from the delights of my half of the first. Salad? Food from the menu of heaven’s own banqueting table more like! My only other comparable salad was from a bistro in California. I think this one even topped that. Go on, order this next time! With a fine line drawn down the middle of the bowl, each strawberry and blueberry divided equally, the deep fried goats cheese with its cloak of chutney carefully cut in 2, I realised my half of the dish was now empty, so mournfully swapped dishes with my partner. I usually let him have the lions share as I’m more bijou in size. Not for that salad. Goodness, I don’t think so! Fortunately the pizza was no less thrilling. Such a wonderful place, worth a trip to Arrochar any day. I will for sure return. 20/10. Yum.

We were going out with friends for a meal and we recommended Porcini. They were not disappointed. They absolutely loved it. You can usually tell how nice a place is by the cleanliness of the toilets, and this is no exception. The place is beautifully decorated and is immaculately clean. The food is fabulous and the service second to none. Definitely the best restaurant in Oban and if you like Italian, this is the place to come. We will most definitely be back!

I and my colleagues were appalled by some of the most abusive behaviour I have ever witnessed upon entering an establishment. We waited for a table in what must have been the wrong place to wait (?). My friends were subsequently subjected to a barrage of unintelligible but clearly hostile bluster from an apparently aggravated host, who ushered us over to a counter to ostensibly assist us. We had done and said nothing! It felt only appropriate to leave the establishment immediately, upon which one of the chefs threw us a profane finger gesture. Baffling and shocking. Do not visit here.

We ordered 2 takeaway pizzas while staying on Iona and they were soooo good!! I actually can't write this without wanting another one (shame I'm back home). I would definitely recommend Ailidh's if you're staying on Iona and don't want to cook - why would you, with this on your doorstep?! I was going to take a photo of the pizza but I was too preoccupied eating it 🤣

The food served is of good quality, but it's the same old menu time after time. The restaurant also lacks atmosphere, which is a shame because it used to be the best restaurant in Helensburgh under previous owners.

My wife and I, with our small dog visited during a lunch time break in Bowmore. A great welcome by lovely staff, nice cocktail, followed by one of the nicest pizza and pasta combinations that we have ever had. The staff are particularly welcoming, and were lovely to our little dog. We thoroughly recommend and we will use again when in the area. Thank you. A++++

Ordered a munchie box and got the worse thing I’ve ever seen. Received an un-advertised pizza base in the munchie box underneath 2x pieces chicken pakora and 2x pieces veg pakora both of which were greasy, hard and just unedible. Chips average, donner meat was a joke and unbelievably greasy. Not worth £15.

Unfortunately the worst burger I ever had. The meat was just awful - sorry I can't find nicer words. Service staff was nice. Chips were ok.

We enjoyed a lovely meal and drinks on a busy Saturday evening. The staff were friendly and attentive, taking orders and delivering food and drinks in a timely manner. We shared a pizza, veggie lasagne and a mushroom starter - all of which were excellent. The atmosphere was vibrant and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

Lovely place for a pitstop, I had a cream tea, which was so nice. The scone was slightly warm, which made it feel fresh from the oven and was light and fluffy.
