The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

On a solo sailing trip to Tarbert I was fortunate to get a call back confirming that a table had now become available. I don't normally do fine dining without the wife. My starter of Scallops in garlic butter with Samphire was excellent, no, they were better than excellent, followed by delicious Cod Fillet in sauce. The team were welcoming and the whole dining experience was first class. Meeting a friendly and knowledgeable couple from New Zealand made the "Dinner for One" a more relaxed and enjoyable evening. Go there, eat good food, get great service, and meet nice people.

Very busy, which is usually a good sign. However, 20 minutes after we sat down we were offered drinks and to give the food order. 10 minutes later the drinks arrived, minus one of the drinks ordered. It was still busy, with only two staff serving, and they did apologise about the delay. The food was good, nothing standout about it, apart from the lack of wilted greens with the seafood special. By this stage we’d lost the will to complain.

Central to the town and provide you with a friendly welcome, we had lunch and it was fantastic. Lovely food and reasonably priced, couldn't really have asked for more. Also, dog friendly.

Venison dinner was superb, and I was there for seafood! Delightful service, view and special bottle of red but all was eclipsed by the perfectly cooked and served loin cuts. We split a portion of yummy, crisp onion rings to start and each had an overflowing side of green vegetables with our main. We decided to sit and watch the show on the field leading down to the magic view of forest, sea and islands surrounding the marina nearby. 'Show' you say? Yep. White-tailed hare cavorted, couple of random goats and an Angus or 3 munch contentedly in the foreground. Trio of ice creams at magnificent sundown brought our appetite to a pleasant end. Perfect!

Very long wait. Not great value and not great food. Had been before for lunch a year ago and loved it. This experience was not the same.
