My family made a reservation at The Salt Cellar for our New Years Eve dinner. The restaurant was buzzing with excitement and every table was full when we arrived for our 715 reservation, and by the time we left at 10 we were one of the last to leave. That being said, we were never rushed, everyone working was kind and talkative, and made sure to let us know it was fine to take our time and enjoy our visit. My family is the type to take time over our meals, with multiple courses with bottles and lots of talking, so it was wonderful to be embraced and welcomed.
I had the lamb shank, and oh my goodness, the meat melted in my mouth! Both myself and my sister in law had the lamb and both of our meals were exquisite! Everything we ordered was delicious, the atmosphere was incredible (the arched brick roof makes the space so unique and cosy) and the staff went above and beyond. There were numerous specials to select from in addition to the regular menu. My sister was driving so did not drink, the bar were happy to whip up a mocktail for her even though they were not on the menu. I wish I had another week in Scotland so I could eat at The Salt Cellar again before I leave. read more
