Easily one of the best restaurants in Aberdeen. The food and atmosphere is superb, with stunning decor and an open front kitchen where you can see the chefs preparing your food.
On a budget we recommend the delicious Turkish Meze Starter. It features a variety of small hot & cold Turkish dishes served with hot pitta bread, and costs around £8 per person (min 2 people). Great value, extremely delicious and filling!
If you are feeling particularly hungry and don't mind splashing out a bit more, for around £25-30 per person you can get the above Meze plus 3 main courses, desert and Turkish tea or coffee. There is a vegetarian, meat & seafood option.

This is our favourite authentic Japanese/Korean restaurant in Aberdeen. The food is excellent, but seems to be at its best on the weekend when Chef Jang himself is working. It has a cool rustic Japanese style decor and friendly staff.
We highly recommend the Katsu Curry, Crunch Roll, Salmon Roll and Philadelphia Roll. If you go between 5-7pm you can take advantage of the discounted 'early bird' menu.

Sightseeing
The Iconic Duntottar Castle, steeped in history, and set upon a cliff top overlooking the stunning North East Coast of Scotland, this is not to be missed.
The castle is about 3 km south of Stonehaven or 15km south of Aberdeen and easily accessible by bus. The surviving buildings are largely of the 15th and 16th centuries, but the site is believed to have been fortified in the Early Middle Ages.
