Phenomenal from start to finish, and oh my the finish—the tiramisu was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. Just the right amount of food and perfectly paced. Great vibe, not stuffy at all, with staff so attentive that they observed I wasn’t drinking a cocktail and correctly guessed that I didn’t like it; they swapped it for something else. We booked the one chef’s table that’s nestled in a corner of the open kitchen and allows for a more immersive dining experience, which I’d definitely recommend.

We had an incredible experience with you and it really was an amazing celebration of our anniversary. There were too many dishes that we loved to pick favorites, however, the cheese ball and lavender honey were incredible. We would come back weekly for that exquisite little cheese ball alone! Each dish had wonderful layers of flavor, the langoustine, lobster and the mushroom dish were divine. The tomato consume delicious! Everything was so calm, friendly, organized to the smallest detail. Your staff were able to build rapport with all tables they interacted with. We're a bit cheeky and like a good laugh, our servers were able to go with the flow to give us an experience that we enjoyed. We will be back and plan to check out your sister restaurants as well!

I recently celebrated my birthday with lunch at Cail Bruich, and it was an amazing experience. The food was beautifully prepared, with fantastic flavors that made each dish stand out. We went for the wine pairing, which really enhanced the meal and added a nice touch to each course. The staff were friendly, polite, and clearly knew a lot about what they were serving. The restaurant itself has a lovely, comfortable atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Everything about our visit was spot-on, and we’re already looking forward to coming back—and trying their sister venues too!

We visited Cail Bruich with friends to celebrate our Scotland trip and some birthdays in the group. We had an excellent time! Service throughout was exceptional - with the wine service in particular being a standout. The decor and atmosphere inside was definitely upscale, but more relaxed than other Michelin star restaurants we've done. The food itself was inventive and delicious, with the tomato and lobster dishes being highlights. If you're looking for a fine dining experience in Glasgow, I'd certainly recommend considering Cail Bruich.

7 course taster menu is absolutely for the open minded, you have to trust the design in each and every course and I think chef lorna and the excellent staff nailed that this evening. We sat up front in the chefs table, which made the experience that bit extra special for my girlfriend and I. A young gentleman brought us our first few courses / snacks, and they were out of this world. Full of flavour, and the way each cook delivered, presented and spoke about their ingredients shows the passion they have for what they do. Everyone, all staff were attentive friendly and made our night relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable. 160 per person plus drinks takes this into a pricey night for a meal, but on this special occasion, I deem it certainly worth the money.

Absolutely wonderful experience. We booked the 5-course tasting menu to celebrate our anniversary and had a great time at Cail Bruich. The journey through the tasting menu is very enjoyable. Our favourites are the woods mushroom and creedy carver duck. The team is also very lovely and friendly. The small gesture with a handwritten card to celebrate our special occasion with us was very touching. Thank you for a fantastic evening.

This is an exceptional restaurant, where we had the most memorable meal that we have ever had. We were celebrating our silver wedding anniversary. We had a wonderful evening and felt very warmly welcomed by staff. All the service was highly professional. Every course of the dinner menu was exquisite (7 courses snacks extra sweets). This menu is expensive but well worth the money. The fish courses were our favourites. I could not quite eat all of the sweet items at the end; I think perhaps it was because of the richness of the previous courses. But each one was exciting and delicious. The drinks mark-up is high but the wine is excellent. So it was a thoroughly delightful evening and we will certainly come again for another special occasion. Thank you.

Absolutely excellent. A fairly intimate restaurant not too far from the city centre. We had the 7-course tasting menu with the Discovery Wine Pairing, and it did not disappoint! Each and every course was delicious, and most of the pairings accentuated the dishes! There was a pairing that we felt didn't work, and the staff were keen to take feedback on board and ever so friendly in doing so. Went for the Krug as a flourish, and it was also paired beautifully with a dish. Overall fantastic experience - it's certainly expensive, but very well worth it as a treat!
