Small, friendly, good foodWe went here on a whim for dinner on saturday and it was great. When we arrived, they were full up, but the lovely waitress took my number and called me within half an hour to advise that a table was ready for us.
The food is bistro style. I had seafood bisque, which was fantastic, then grilled swordfish on a bean cassuolet. The fish was tasty and perfectly cooked, but the cassuolet was disappointing. It more resembled a tinned bean salad than a cassuolet. However, my companions' dishes were all wonderful.
Prices are reasonable too. We each had a glass of house wine, one white, one red and one rose. All were pretty rough, so we'll have to move up the wine list next time! ]]> Mon, 30 Jul 2007 16:05:54 +0000 /review/uk/edinburgh/restaurant/1f6357o/cafe-grande2070931468 Hazeleeno cosy family & home feel good brew good value crowded brasserie jazz 55.935654 -3.210071 Buffalo Grill http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/edinburgh/restaurant/1y32370/buffalo-grill

Mmmmm - Meat!I love this place. they do really amazing steaks and it is byob so is nice and cheap.
The staff are really friendly too.
It's usually packed so you need to book.
On the downside, the decor is looking very tired and it's too hot in there - air conditioning, or open windows, are needed!
Generally though, it's a nice, cheery and not too formal place to eat.
I've been advised that the Dime Bar Cake is totally awesome, but I was too full to try it on my last visit!]]> Mon, 30 Jul 2007 15:58:58 +0000 /review/uk/edinburgh/restaurant/1y32370/buffalo-grill1983240891 Hazeleeno american byob family & home feel good value crowded meat friendly 55.95849074352 -3.2124555774178 Stravaigin http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/glasgow/restaurant/1d31279/stravaigin

It's ok...

The ONLY Good Chinese restaurant in Dundee!Yep, it really is the only good Chinese restaurant in Dundee. I know after living there for 4 years!
The food is always excellenf and staff are friendly and helpful. The Aromatic Crispy Duck and Pancakes is awesome, as is the Salt and Pepper Squid. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
They do take away too, but unfortunately don't deliver.]]> Mon, 23 Jul 2007 14:59:43 +0000 /review/uk/dundee/restaurant/1f1347t/mandarin-garden1088242276 Hazeleeno crowded family & home feel good value chinese 56.458342952761 -2.9784305024193 The Pancake Place http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/dundee/restaurant/189ku7/the-pancake-place

It's old fashioned and full of grannies, but you cannot beat their pancakes with bacon and maple syrup - yum!]]> Mon, 23 Jul 2007 14:33:00 +0000 /review/uk/dundee/restaurant/189ku7/the-pancake-place272795837 Hazeleeno 56.461088800007 -2.9720097367455 City Harbour Chinese Buffet Restaurant http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/dundee/restaurant/1k82l8l/city-harbour-chinese-buffet-restaurant

Buffet restaurants are never great, but this place is especially bad. Nearly everything is uber greasy!
The decor is atrocious too - it's like eating in a hospital canteen or something!
Cheap, but I won't be back]]> Mon, 23 Jul 2007 14:31:37 +0000 /review/uk/dundee/restaurant/1k82l8l/city-harbour-chinese-buffet-restaurant547656998 Hazeleeno 56.462062930493 -2.962297331491 Deep Sea Restaurant http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/dundee/restaurant/1c12b7t/deep-sea-restaurant

Best beer garden in Dundee - spacious and tranquil It is a trek back up to the pub though...
Very studenty, being so close to the uni.
