Denise Mitchell3. February, 2025. Must visit As a group visiting this restaurant, for some was the first time, we had a lovely time. Staff were friendly and food great Jan M3. February, 2025. Fabulous night at Howies I celebrated my 70th birthday with friends and family in the private dining room at Howies Waterloo Place and was absolutely delighted with the whole event. The staff (especially Milda, Agne and Lara) provided a warm welcome to everyone and were extremely attentive all evening. The food and drink were all wonderful and everyone was very favourably impressed. Highly recommended for any occasion. Thanks again! CreativeJo3. February, 2025. Superb for entertaining friends. Consistently high standards in service, cuisine and value. On my last visit my friends and I were allowed to linger well beyond the two-hour table limit and a great catch-up ensued. I also appreciate being able to supply my own favourite wine (Sunday to Thursdays) for a very reasonable corkage. I have been dining here for several years. It's always a welcoming and enjoyable experience. Coastal242223104253. February, 2025. Great place for a lunch with an informal business lunch Return visitor, this time for lunch with a client. Cullen skink delicious, as usual, as was the daily special venison dish. Very friendly and efficient service throughout at what was a busy time. We arrived slightly early but were welcomed enthusiastically. marjory2. February, 2025. City centre great dining Lovely lively atmosphere..great food and choices..good service. Always my city centre choice for lunch. Lots of loud chatter from business lunch but lots of laughter too Rob Weissen2. February, 2025. A special evening at Howie’s private dining room Wonderful evening in Howie’s private dining room with 24 of us round the large table. Service was excellent, Liza kept in calm control throughout the evening, including aligning timings of courses to our speech programme. Food was delicious, all clean plates, and I could have gone for all the menu choices (spoilt for choice). Very good value for money. mdquilici1. February, 2025. Perfect for any meal! We have eaten here several times for lunch and have really enjoyed the high quality food, lovely ambience, and wonderful staff. Highly recommend for anything from a casual lunch to a romantic date night. DWGlen29. January, 2025. Tasty Scottish food. If you like Scottish food you will like this. The food is fresh and delicious. The service was very good, we didn’t wait long for our food and did not feel rushed. Would definitely recommend.Tripadvisor rating score: 4.5 of 5, based on 4780 reviews
