Smoked chicken that tasted like the sandwich style chicken out of a supermarket not smoked at all, overpowering balsamic vinegar.
Scallops were quite fishy tasting which overpowered the rest of the dish, bland black pudding did not blend well with the scallops. Couldn’t taste vinaigrette at all.
Pork belly was almost all fat, what meat there was was half dry and not moistened by the fat at all. Rather a large fatty piece. Noodles were drenched in sauce, which tasted like soy sauce and not a five spice sauce, one cashew as well!
Gnocchi were mushy and more like stodgy dumplings, onions were delish but overall the dish was poor.
Risotto was lovely!
No asking our opinon on any part of the meal, hot plates placed down without warning, when we complained about the meals the owner looked at us blankly. Offered us desserts which considering the quality of the other dishes we declined, we didn’t even want to try the coffee. Three courses inc a glass of wine.
Very bad meal, worst I have had in Glasgow, poor customer service and now I know why the car park was so empty!
The right to replyAnyone wishing to see the arrival and behaviour of the 4 diners will soon be able to view their visit from the cctv footage on our website.
In particular I think Strathclydes finest will be interested in the amount of alcohol the driver consumes and then drives away in the blue car in the picture above

This place is under new ownership and with a new name " The White Elephant" how apt

Posted: Thu Dec 26, 2013 12:06 amWork in the area so a few of us went to Al's Diner on Stirling Road last week for a quick lunch. The burger was really nice and the french fries were great. Good service and quick if you're in a hurry.
However, avoid Cathedral House in John Knox St at all costs. Grim, cold, tasteless food. Really dreadful.
