Ke1t Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Need a decent restaurant in Aberdeen... nothing Indian... catering to large parties ans actually inside the city. Looked at a couple of online sites, and it seems that Aberdeen extends about 50 miles outside the city limits, which helps me not at all. Preferably good food, good service and local. Quickly, now, I need to get this fucker reserved. 1 Link to comment

tup Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I'd love to help, but I've only eaten in a restaurant about ten times in my life, forced to at Disneyland, and a couple of other special occasions I couldna get out of. So sorry, I've no idea, but Tam Cowan would be the man to ask. Link to comment

tup Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Spaghetti and pizza is British FFS, everyone kens that, together with chips this is our staple dish for children. Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 La Tasca - pish poor service and food. Link to comment
tup Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 La Tasca - pish poor service and food. Yanks demand good service, and get it through generous tips in Yankee Doodle Dandy land, however, demanding same over here is likely to see the staff congregating around your unprepared meal as follows: Before serving it up to you, that's what you get for coming the cunt in the UK.

Bluto10 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 my favoutite gafff was chicken hut, up top of union street. always good for a bit of scram after a night out socialising. 1 Link to comment
brownie Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 How about La Tasca? Always find it good, with a good atmosphere. Absolute pish. It's a bog standard chain restaurant. Howies are usually accommodating for large parties, they have two separate rooms with a big table in each. 1 Link to comment
Jonty Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 The Albyn, The Ferryhill House and the Braided Fig are sll highly recommended and very central, though you may struggle for a reservation this week! Link to comment

fifered Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Musa Cafe 52 MalmaisonThat's the one to go for. Food is magic. Link to comment
Jonty Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 they are all boozers. you go tthere to get drunk. nae to eat. Eh? All pubs, but serve very decent food so best of both worlds. There stopped being a distinction between restaurants and pubs in about 1985 didnt there? Link to comment
Johnny Mac Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I second Musa. Cracking grub and good selection of beers. Link to comment

There stopped being a distinction between restaurants and pubs in about 1985 didnt there? you get pubs which are really places that also sell beer and you get pubs. when out 'for a meal' - you go to a resteraunt which is neither, and hit the wine wine list with a bit of style.unless its an indian, in which case you tuck into the cobra or kingfisher. 1 Link to comment

muttondressedaslamb Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Dunno about big parties but best for me is http://lastella.co.uk/. Yatai was a wee tempter too (guessing thats fucked now...?), but La Stella is hard to beat, especially if it's for what could be described as "scottish food". Mainly sea food, very (very) well done. RIP Yatai, very sadly missed by me Link to comment
muttondressedaslamb Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Not sure what happened. I went when it was beside the theatre first of all and thought it was amazing, then when I went to it at Justice Mill Lane I thought I had died and gone to heaven. More expansive menu, good vibe about the place and I used to eat my body weight in sushi. Then it went back to beside the theatre and they changed the menu to Scottish-Asian fusion, which meant no more sushi I didn't go back and it closed down a few months later. On a side note, I used to have this Japanese lemonade that was in a weird bottle with a glass ball floating in it. It was really fine but hadn't seen it since my last visit to Yatai. When in Copenhagen in the summer, I visited a sushi bar and they had it on the menu. So I got really excited about tasting this lemonade again only to be told that no where in the world has it now as the factory got washed away in the tsunami Link to comment
Nelly Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Went to the Foyer the other night and the food was unbelievably good. Service good too, was a bit sceptical when reading about being #1 on trip advisor but definitely deserves the accolade. Link to comment
muttondressedaslamb Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Bugger I had that, they kinda like smashed the glass ball into it aye? RIP glass bottle lemonade factory. Yes!!! It was a great little quirk. RIP indeed. Totally agree with you Nelly re: Foyer. It really is something special. Link to comment
