Aberdeenshire, Scottish Restaurant Guide

Well-known local chef Kevin Dalgleish launched this “sleek, sophisticated yet relaxed” basement restaurant in 2022, in a “lovely” townhouse not far from the city centre; by most (if not quite all) accounts, there is “very little to fault” with the high-class cooking (“using the very best of ingredients” from Scotland and elevating them with French techniques). As we went to press, Dalgleish had announced plans to extend into the basement next door, with outdoor seating also on the horizon in the future.
