So the name of this place is a bit ambiguous: The crab shack, the lobster shack, the lobster store…read moreor, that little wooden hut on the harbour...This has to be one of the East Neuk's best kept secrets and is a real gem. Very very reasonable dressed crab and fresh lobster. On a sunny day (yup you are in the East Neuk, so these days are not too rare) between Easter and September, come down to the harbour for some al fresco dining. It is a little bit of New England in Scotland! Here is how you tackle the lobster shack. 1. Make sure it is open - opening hours are variable, but usually open weekends from Easter, and in the height of the summer, they are open during the week for lunch. 2. Bring glassware/plastic cups and corkscrew if you are wanting juice/wine 3. Get some cash - they don't take cards 4. Go to the hut and pick your lobster, they are live and will be freshly boiled for you. 5. Whilst lobster is boiling, go to the co-op across the road and buy some wine, bread, salad or anything else you want to have with the lobster/crab - the lobster/crab is just served as is, no lemon or anything. 6. Come back and grab yourself a bench, get your delish lobster/crab which will be served on a glass plate with real cutlery. 7. Enjoy - guaranteed you will! But please, please, don't tell anyone else - this is a really special place, we don't want it too busy now!!

Easily the best meals we've had not only in Scotland, but in the states in years. The starters--Langoustine Bisque & Sea Trout Gravadlax--were astonishing. My wife and I couldn't decide who'd made the best choice. Then, the mains: Seafood Risotto & Whole Roast Sea Bass. You know how you go into a restaurant sometimes and the presentation is everything? Giant plates with the often mediocre food arranged artistically? Well, this was NOT the case with our meals at Tolbooth: beautiful presentation, which the food itself more than lived up to. The still hot, fresh loaf of sourdough bread was the perfect accompaniment. Ambience was warm and relaxed, and the waitstaff could not have been friendlier or more welcoming. A truly memorable dining experience.

There is a nice variety of seafood on offer on the menu but the better choice is to select your fish from tonight's specials on the wall. That's what we did and we were very satisfied. The wine menu is limited. We chose a Pouilly Fuse that was unfortunately not drinkable. The staff were kind enough to take it back. I then chose the IPA that was much better. The appetizer recommended by our server was the mussels. These were best mussels I've ever enjoyed. It was served with a sauce made with garlic, butter, milk, and onion. It's good enough to be a soup! Our sides included brocholini and halumi. Both were excellent. The brocholini was flavorful and crunchy with a nice sauce-though know that the sauce has ham in it. The cheese, lightly fried is served with a spicy sauce that I really enjoyed, bit was too much for my wife. It was superb. We selected the monkfish and sea bass for our mains. Both were excellent, moist and flavorful fish-generous portions of each. This was an extremely satisfying and enjoyable meal. It was I've of our best in Scotland. We were frankly unable to eat more and we didn't have dessert.

I love that it's not only a restaurant but also a seafood market so if you are just looking to takeout or bake fish at home it's a great option.

We did not feel rushed even though when I booked they had a note saying a time limit. This seemed common at most restaurants we booked in Scotland though so maybe it's more of common place.

I asked about the deer and duck pate, he really couldn't explain the dish. I asked if it was more like a country pate because I was trying to understand the concept; he said yes, country pate. For those who care, it's a deer tartare with a duck pate. Main dishes were good. No linens on the table, or cleaning/wiping of the table between courses; not really fine dining. I think at this level lines are a must, and crumbing is expected. Devil is in the details. Probably they expect, mostly tourists who never come back? Too bad, chef is great, he needs to sort out front of house.

We start with the baked scallop with cauliflower and basil (extra £5--worth it!) & the mozzarella arancini with tomato vodka sauce and parmesan. Both were so yummy! The scallop was baked into the shell, and I may have made noises while eating everything. The hake was a little bland, as white fish can be, but the eggplant, miso custard, and hazelnut really complemented it causing tasty explosion of flavor. I can't eat a lot of pasta, but I wanted to eat all of my sister's king oyster mushroom ricotta gnocchi with spinach and garlic confit. She took half of it to-go so we could save room for dessert. My mother enjoyed her fillet of beef with caramelised onion and beef shin--she'd never had that before and was very pleasantly surprised! We shared all the deserts--all very delightful, you can't go wrong! The atmosphere is quaint, with the cafe sitting next to a gothic church on a quiet street--even tho it's very close to the City Center. The cafe can fit about 10 tables of 2-4 people...if that. The service was some of the best I found in Scotland. They were attentive, asking how the meal was going and refilling drinks. I believe the US has some high standards of service, and the staff at Moonfish cafe were on top of things!
