Description

Overall, the restaurant received mixed reviews, with some customers praising the excellent seafood dishes and friendly staff, while others were disappointed by the slow service and overpriced, underwhelming food. The location of the restaurant was highlighted as fantastic, offering great views of the harbor. The Silver Darling platter was recommended as a standout appetizer, along with the seafood mains such as seared Cod and shellfish linguine. Despite some negative experiences, many customers expressed a desire to return to the restaurant for its unique location, friendly staff, and delicious food.

Went for a birthday dinner and had a great time. Good atmosphere and great cuisine. Pricey, but worth the money.

Very good seafood restaurant. Have only had the lunch menu but I thought it was fantastic. The location is stunning and you get friendly french service. The specials are usually worth going for.

This is not Ethiopian, if anything it is French inspired! Superb restaurant with glass all round, so you can watch the ships go in and out of Aberdeen Harbour. The food here is not about quantity (so if you have an American-sized appetite you might be better sticking with your double whopper Mc-thingy), but if you like quality, not quantity with a strong bias towards fish, this will suit you.

Truly excellent food thoughtfully prepared but still giving all the benefits of comfort food. Excellent atmosphere and great view on the harbour. Great service and a solid whiskey menu. Highly recommended
