Fabulous food as usual. Excellent quality, service and value. Great location and easily accessible. Could be so much more expensive than what it is considering the standard of food.

Love eating here. We have never been disappointed with the food, wine and service. The atmosphere is informal and cosy. All food is prepared fresh and from scratch. There’s the choice of set menu or a La carte. It’s not expensive given the exceptional quality of food and service. This was our 4th visit as It’s just under 100 mile round trip for us. But certainly won’t be our last 🥰

Ian Brown continues to produce wonderful plates of food. Eight of us met for a celebration dinner, choosing widely from the menu over 3 courses and loving every plateful. You can't fault any aspect of this small restaurant, nice ambience created by an attentive Sheila who makes everyone feel at home. What a pity they are retiring when the business is sold. They will be missed. Enjoy while you still can!

Been regulars here for years and it never disappoints. A traditional menu (with fantastic changing specials) that is beautifully cooked and presented by talented chef Ian & team - the sea bass on smoked haddock risotto is stand out. And the baked alaska is a must order! The warm, friendly service is also second to none - Sheila is a real gem, going above and beyond to make you feel welcome, to pass on recommendations and to make you a fabulous cocktail! We feel so lucky to have such an exceptional, welcoming restaurant on our doorstep. A must try - you won’t be disappointed!

Visited with my partner, he chose from the set menu & I chose from the main menu. Both of our meals were amazing, exceptionally tasty & very good value for money. Touches, such as the crispy kale & tarragon jus were reminiscent of much more expensive restaurants. We both loved this place & will definitely be back. The service provided by Gillian & food prepared by Ryan were first class.

The main meal was ok but sparse. Also there could have been no more than a tablespoon worth of custard put into a very small white dish. However the reason for this one star review is the disregard for the safety of customers and any lack of reasonable compensation. My fruit crumble was cooked in a solid metal dish and then served directly to me from the oven. I was not informed that the dish would be scalding hot and I subsequently burnt my hand which was very very painful. The waitress did apologise and give me ice to cool it down, but the pain nevertheless spoiled the rest of my lunch (and afternoon). When we asked for the bill, not a penny was taken off as compensation. The issue here is not about the money, but the principle of treating customers with respect after causing such an injury. In retrospect, we should have refused to pay for at least half the meal, but we paid in full and left. We will not be back!

Visited this busy little neighbourhood restaurant for a midweek dinner with family. The menu choices were great. Two of us ate from the set menu while two ate from the regular a la carte menu. The choices on both menus were imaginative and appealing. The food was very well cooked, flavoursome and great value for money. I can certainly recommend the Stovies with Brown Sauce starter and Haddock Thermidor main. One of our family is lactose intolerant and the chef varied a dessert from the set menu to meet his needs. This was much appreciated and typical of the friendly, professional service. We have already booked a return visit.

Midweek birthdays are much less fun than weekend bashes. We visited Ian Brown's cozy little bistro as a bit of a surprise, if low key, birthday bash for the boss and we're glad we did. The set menu, which is available out with the weekend, was compact but had a decent variety. 'Management' opted for the little peppers stuffed with goats cheese. I was delighted with my choice of sweetpotato soup. In a rare moment of unanimity we had the delicious haddock thermidor. This was complemented by an interesting assembly of sauteed vegetables. The fish was not only skillfully cooked but was also beautifully presented. There are 30 odd covers and it was pleasantly busy for a mid week evening. The waiting staff got that balance of friendliness and professionalism just right. I can't understand why we hadn't visit before now, but we will be back.

Starter - excellent haddock tart with plum sauce. Dessert, lovely pannacotta. Main - truly awful braised beef, a small extremely dried-out bit of beef, like leather, I binned most of it (and I don't bin much!). Braised beef should come apart easily. Ian Brown is our local place with a very good reputation but serious thought is needed about what should / shouldn't be offered for reheating at home.

The starter of smoked haddock risotto was delicious followed by Venison Bridie with potatoes and veg. Amazing. My wife had a Lemon Posset and I had Arran Kilbride cheddar with oatcakes and chutney. Both were a fantastic finish to the meal. During this lockdown period it was lovely to have such a lovely meal. Thank you Ian.

We've been going to Ian Brown's ever since we moved into the area in 2012. The dine-in experience is very special - so cosy, warm and welcoming. Even after just one or two visits, Sheila and all the waiting team (who reassuringly are mainly the same people now as 8 years ago) always remembered our names, faces, favourites etc. But even now, with the delivery service, it's Sheila who delivers it personally, stops for a natter etc. And whether dining in or out, the food is of the most consistently high standard of any restaurant I could mention. It's delicious, it's generous, it's varied. I'm going to stop now as my mouth is watering!

Last night, at 6pm, my son and I checked in to the Sherbrook Castle Hotel to be told that we couldn't have dinner till 8.45pm. (They were booked up.) We had traveled a distance and were hungry so waiting to eat till then was not an option. Checking nearby restaurants on the web we decided to give this one a try for dinner at 7pm. Luckily they had had a cancellation and could fit us in. It was our lucky day. The meal we received was quite excellent and the staff were great. It was also nice to see a wine list that would satisfy most pallets. It's not huge and was busy however, social distancing was observed. We were made very welcome and I/we will return when next in Glasgow. Thanks again.

This was a fine dinning experience,,,, at home. Ian Brown's is famed for it's cosy atmosphere and Fine dining. Imagine if you could get that Fine dinning experience delivered to your door. It was a special meal and we ordered Ian Browns delivered at home service. The meal arrived in lots of individual boxes with a clearly written and easy to follow instruction sheet. No cooking involved Ian has done all the hard work for you. We had a smoked salmon starter and beef main course with restaurant style vegetables and potatoes, as I said all beautifully packaged and clearly labelled. It was lovely to enjoy a great restaurant meal again. I highly recommend this service and I hope that even when thing get back to a new sort of normal that the restaurant will continue the service. Much appreciated, many thanks.

I honestly think I had the tastiest meal I have ever enjoyed anywhere - every mouthful was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent, and the staff friendly and welcoming. It's a small place so you would probably need to book as it was busy (Friday night) and I can't see them having any spare tables if you just walk in off the street. It's a little more expensive than I usually go for (we were given gift vouchers) but the quality is superb so it's merited. The menu is unusal and creative.

We have dined at this restaurant on a number of occasions but this was our first visit on a Sunday. As always the food was excellent, 2 of our group opting for the fixed menu while the others went to the al la carte. Everything was top quality, the pace of service good and the wine of a good standard but not over priced. A great way to spend a relaxing time with good food. Well worth a visit if you are new to Giffnock, or perhaps thought it was too expensive.

Visited here for the first time after so many thoughts of doing so over the last 4 years as I passed it on the train- It’s only one stop away! So on a last minute whim I checked online and got a booking for just two nights awayChose the fixed price 2 course menu and then just had to have the cheese so ended up on the 3 course menu. Given that’s it’s a limited choice menu at such a great price there was still a good choice for my wife and I.The restaurant is small but even on a dreich Tuesday night it was mostly full.The food was very good and to see the owner chef on the premises in his whites always instils confidence that he really cares.Will certainly revisit.

We booked in for Christmas lunch last week 19th December, and it was delightful! The meal started with some fresh bread whilst waiting for the starters. Between the four of us we sampled spiced pear with black pudding bon bons, haggis neeps & tatties, and king prawn thermidor. All were delicious and well presented. Moving on to the main event - I had the shin of beef with crushed horseradish potatoes served with the nicest carrots I've ever had. Dining companions had roast turkey with all the trimmings and roast partridge crown. Everything was great and clean plates all round. After two lovely courses, we felt duty bound to try out the desserts and we weren't disappointed! We were warned the plum tartin would be a twenty minute wait, and it was well worth it. Juicy plums on delicate pasty with creamy vanilla ice cream - delicious. Thumbs up for the other pudding too.No drinking as we were going back work, but would definitely return for an evening meal in the future. The restaurant was quiet on the day we dined, but there was a steady stream of people coming in to book tables and buy vouchers. Below is the spiced pear salad and shin of beef.

We had a couple of friends up from London and decided to try Ian Brown as we had heard great things. It was full up - normally a good sign... but a a large noisy group with children made it almost impossible to have a conversation. As a result, everyone in the restaurant was shouting to be heard and the acoustics were not helping. We had great food and great service but please - a suggestion - let us know at the time of booking if a large group with children are in - we would simply try another time. What should have been a relaxing Sunday lunch morphed into a strained shouting competition. Look - please go - the food is great- but be warned - its a lesson (re) learned for us....

My wife and I wanted a quiet intimate dinner with good food. The menu was varied with some interesting combinations. The food was the best we have had in a long long time. 11 out of 10 for the chef. The service was friendly and excellent and it was obvious there was a number of regular customers - always a good sign. A nice touch - a lady at the next table had a broken arm and the staff, unprompted ensured her steak was cut into managable pieces to avoid any awkwardness.

Good menu with excellent wine list. Quite small inside and some tables a little cramped if adjacent diners sit too far back from their table! But apart from that the decor is clean modern and bright. Tomato and red pepper soup reported to be excellent. The roast beef was awarded a “best ever” plaudit. I had walnut celery and Brie salad which was delicious. Followed that with chicken and mushroom Brodie which really hit the spot!! Served with the best chips I have ever tasted, no hint of fat or oil and salted with sea salt. This restaurant/ chef uses high quality ingredients and takes care in the cooking, seasoning and presentation.

First time in Ian Browns and first of ll we loved the food it was delicious, the service was good and it was nice to get greeted by the owners wife, something rare these days. We were out celebrating a 20th Anniversary, but unfortunately with such a crammed in table setting we found the volume (atmosphere to some) rise beyond tolerable levels. We were also so close together that we could hear other people shouting to be heard. Overall this spoilt our night and would not be quick to go back.

13 of us went to Ian Browns to celebrate a family birthday on a busy Wednesday night. Staff were very accommodating and so friendly. Menu choices varied from A La Carte to set menu and it was all correct, on time and fabulous. Can highly recommend the Steak Diane and Baked Apples !

All 12 people in our party thought the food was of the highest quality. well prepared and presented by a pleasant and efficient staff. The food was imaginatively presented. Thanks to Ian and Sheila for making my wife's birthday night memorable.

Absolutely amazing dining experience! We were greeted by Shiela Ian's wife and such a warm welcome! The restaurant was quietish when we arrived but soon got busy we loved the size of the place it felt very intimate. The food and recommended wine was outstanding and all staff were friendly, professional and very helpful! Will definitely return here on our next visit to see our daughter in Giffnock

Deserves its reputation as one of the top Southside eateries. Restaurant has a nice atmosphere and the staff are helpful and efficient. Food is promptly served with tasty , good sized portions and the presentation and quality of the food is first class . Definitely to be revisited again.

Food, wine, ambience and service all good and not too expensive. £16 for 3 course set menu and a good choice of wines by the glass. Friendly service and this restaurant seems to focus on getting it right rather than 'looking good guru food'. We'll be back.

We have never been disappointed with the food or service here in the last few years we've frequented the place. I must book a table again soon.

I love eating here, the food is always great. Family-run restaurant so service is also good. Only wish the restaurant was slightly bigger.

Having not been for a while....decided we would book again. Really should have done this sooner. We were welcomed like family....excellent personal service...and indescribably fantastic food. Looking to book again.......sooner rather than later...

We selected this restaurant having read all the great reviews on TA and were looking forward to dinner here. Firstly, there was the lukewarm welcome. Not unpleasant but slightly uncomfortable. It wasn’t until later when a younger member of staff came on duty and expressed an interest in whether or not we were enjoying the food that we felt at all valued as customers. The food was okay but we expected so much more than ‘okay’. The tables are very close together and as the evening got busier, we were finding it difficult to hear each other speak. We won’t be coming back as it was a disappointing experience overall.

Enjoyed a marvellous pre-Christmas lunch on Sunday at a table for four. Food was tremendous, particularly the beef main although everyone was delighted with their choices for each course. Great value for money.

I cannot believe that we have lived a few miles away from this restaurant and this was our fist visit. Our loss - but we will now regularly visit this super family run restaurant.

My friend recommended this place. I went with a friend without a booking. They had a table. Small but very cosy restaurant. Easy to miss from the outside. Menu wasn’t huge which is always a good song. I opted for the sliced fillet steak over Stornaway black pudding starter and my friend had the duck livers. Both of us were delighted. Then I had the chicken with haggis croquettes and my friend a sirloin steak. The chicken was juicy and full of flavour. The steak equally so. We shared baked Alaska for desert. Also glorious. The food really was outstanding.

Quiet today but well looked after. All four of us enjoyed our food which was well presented and was excellent.Sea bass and smoked haddock risotto was superb. Pleasant,courteous staff. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

My first visit was for a family meal after others had raved about the food. I was not disappointed. Nice atmosphere in small surroundings - no more than 40 seats. Varied menu with daily specials that I chose from for appetizer and main (monkfish and venison). Finished off with sticky toffee pudding - wine was well chosen from a fair list and was not over-the-top expensive.

Experience excellent. Food excellent. Ambience excellent. Staff so very friendly. We were made to feel so welcome from the minute we walked in until we left. Definitely got it with the family feel. So nice to be asked for input about desserts for the Christmas Menu. You must visit :)

THIS REVIEW IS BASED SOLELY ON THE RESTAURANT FACILITIES OF THE HOTEL. I haven't reviewed the rooms, as I was only there to eat, not for an overnight stay. The food was mostly enjoyable, and, in general, the service was fine. The background music was probably over 'background' level, but it was tolerable. The enjoyable food and fine service were unfortunately tainted at the end of our experience by a rather humiliating incident caused by poor communication from staff. One of the party was limited on what they could eat (GF dietary requirements). When she asked the waitress about specific ingredients in some dishes, the waitress couldn't provide the information, despite going to ask for advice. This wasn't ideal, as the party member was obviously more limited on choices to avoid risks, but we were able to make it work by sticking solely to a main meal they felt was safe. I had already paid the full bill for our party of four, left a tip, etc., and was about to depart the restaurant when the waitress advised me there had been an underpayment due to an error on the bill (the menu didn't state individual dish pricing so we had no way of questioning this). She advised I would have to be charged an additional sum for food we did not order, we were not served, and we did not eat. I questioned how this applied, but she couldn't explain it beyond that we had chosen not to order additional dishes. I couldn't understand this; however, rather than cause more embarrassment within the group, I paid up and left. This definitely tainted what should have been an enjoyable experience and has deterred me from future visits or recommendations.
