Had booked a table at Mharsanta in Glasgow for dinner with my wife prior to meeting friends for a night at the Blackfriars Comedy Club next door. This was our first visit to this restaurant and pleasantly surprised with service and quality of food. We arrived about 20mins early for our booking, hoping we could just have drink at the bar and Floor Manager (?) moved our table and sorted us with a booth straight away. At Christmas time had a choice of Christmas Menu (three course £38.50) or choice of extensive A La Care Menu (which was not much more for my three course choice). Service was prompt and attentive and we were both happy with our meal choices. We would certainly have no hesitation in returning to this restaurant in future.

Staff were incredible with our son’s allergies, very attentive & knowledgeable. Noisy atmosphere but we enjoy that buzz. We will definitely return as dining with teenagers is a challenge and they couldn’t have been any more accommodating.
