Service was mediocre, music was awful and food was okay. It's such a beautiful space that it deserves better.
A really modern and nicely decorated bar, with music playing given a trendy feel. The service overall was really good, our only slight issue was arriving on time for a table at 1730, being asked to wait until our table was ready. Another group arrived sat nearby and had a table booked for 1800 and they were taken to their table before us, otherwise it would have been 5 stars for service. The manner of the staff was friendly and relaxed and not at all stuffy as it can be in some restaurants. The food was cooked to perfection.
We ordered a Cotes de Rhone and were given a Beaujolais Village!
The Scallops were cold.
The steak was perfectly cooked and thoroughly enjoyable.
However, the peppercorn sauce tasted like it was mass produced and lacked taste, texture and impact. #No vegetables were served with the steak, only chips and a few lettuce leaves!
My treacle pudding's texture and taste was more like a sticky toffee pudding than a treacle pudding - I got absolutely no taste of treacle...
The expresso I ordered only arrived after prompting and complaining and after my wife had finished hers.
And to top it all I did not get the whisky I ordered.
To be fair to the management they did not charge me for their mistakes, but I choose a restaurant on the basis of the quality of the food and service as well as the overall ambience.
I left feeling bitterly disappointed which was sad as I had been looking forward to the evening and night out.
Waited over an hour for starters then another 30 mins for mains. Waiter couldn't open wine and didn't offer a tasting first. Wine, a white, arrived at room temperature. An ice bucket arrived 45 minutes later. We had sparkling water with the meal, towards the end this was topped up with still water. All told, very shoddy service. The place has gone downhill dramatically in the last few months. Will not return.
Amazing food. Great service
Food and service was next level. Can’t wait to go back.
Disappointing experience at Bo & Birdy, felt ignored as soon as we got our main meal. Took half an hour just to get a refill on a glass of water.
Lovely restaurant and stunning interior. Ayrshire pork pie was excellent and the fillet steak is good. Overall service is utterly underwhelming. Very robotic and no personality whatsoever. Undecided on whether to order a side salad with our steak - which our waiter witnessed - eventually we did, only for a salad to arrive with our steak - annoying. Also a 10% service charge added on to our bill regardless - there were 2 of us eating which was very disappointing!
We had a delicious lunch here; I had the wagu burger and my partner had the mac n cheese. The burger camecwith fries and the portion size was good. Mypartner couldn't finish the Mac n cheese as the portion was quite large. Service from a lovely waiter called Donald really added to the ambience of the tastefully decorated restaurant and I would definitely recommend going here. We didn't have any cocktails, but the ones we saw looked fabulous. There is a Q park 5 minutes from the hotel and I understand the concierge can validate a discount on your parking ticket, but I can't confirm this. Prices were reasonable for such freshly cooked quality dishes.
Delicious food, fabulous cocktails and friendly service.
Décor was excellent and I loved the light fittings based on "DNA" models. The staff were relaxed, friendly and efficient and were dressed in their own clothes and not in some regimented uniform, which added to the relaxed ambience of the restaurant.
The food was good and my lamb was perfectly cooked. It wasn't the cheapest meal I've ever eaten nor was it the most expensive, but it was excellent. You are situated equidistant between Gamba and Brian Maule. The food in Gamba is good, but there's no atmosphere and the food is good in Brian Maule, but the tables are too close together. You have got the formula right and we will certainly visit again.
There were both positives and negatives to my experience at Bo & Birdy. The service at the bar was very slow and our booth was walked past several times by members of bar staff who ignored us, despite it not being busy. We were only given one menu and it took a long time for the drinks to come. Nobody checked how we were doing or offered us refills. The experience in the restaurant was much better - the food was served quickly, it was hot and beautifully presented. The waiter was extremely friendly too. The toilet that I went into was filthy.
Staff from the front door to restaurant were all lovely. Food and service that little bit special and even introduced to a red wine I had never tried before. Fab xx
Food was delicious. Service not great brought wrong drinks then never brought drinks when ordered for second time. Assumed that because we had ordered veg that we would not want fries with steak.
Great weekend lunch with friends. Experience overall was great however service was a bit too overenthusiastic. Perfectly nice waitress etc but could have left us to pour our own wine and not topped our water up quite so regularly. I'm guessing it was quite a quiet day in the restaurant.
Sophisticated welcoming surroundings - very friendly attentive staff - food was well presented and delicious-beautifully cooked - complimentary fizz and chocolate birthday greeting was a lovely surprise - I only mentioned when booking it was my husbands birthday and they arranged this - very nice touch - above and beyond - this is also a hotel with spa and you can also book a private film screening - I will definitely be back and highly recommend
Food good quality however my friend and I were still hungry when we left as small portions. Service was great and surroundings beautiful but felt overpriced for portions sizes.
Went with husband on his birthday and a friend. Very quiet, but not impressed with being seated next to table with 6 men, no other diners in restaurant
The background music became intrusive and Staff had to be asked to turn it down twice. They did and apologised
The food was very good, scallops for starter and charred mackerel for main. It wasn’t clear at beginning we needed to order sides
Although the food was very good it was quite pricy, but as a special treat we enjoyed it. Portions small but adequate, ordered the sourdough bread to have some carbs!
It may be an idea to have a set menu at lunch time to keep pricing better?
I did like the fact that it wasn’t a huge menu
We will go back again sometime.the staff were very good and attentive
Service was great! We were there to celebrate my birthday and they gave us a complimentary bottle of fizz to celebrate! Staff were attentive enough without being over the top!

Lovely restaurant, food and cocktails were delicious! Very good service and all the staff were lovely and friendly.
Previously been to Blythswood for cocktails & food and had fabulous time. As for Bo&Birdy really disappointed, service was poor not sure if there was a change of staff happening but still. Also food choice not that great, bar food! Went as a treat prior to Andrea bocelli concert but was really disappointed. The hotel looks lovely but on this occasion it seems fur coat.........

Overall really lovely evening for my daughters birthday. Bar upstairs really nice for pre dinner drink. New look restaurant is very trendy and had a buzz about it. Food was very good, pleasant friendly staff. We were seated near a speaker which was pretty loud but asked for it to be turned down a tad and it was.

We look forward to welcome you back in the near future! Warm regards, Klaudia Daszkiewicz Food and Beverage Reservations Coordinator
Had to send 1 steak back as it was medium to well rather than medium rare. Not a big issue, however it was clear the Chef wasn't happy with this and made a scene of the return for all to see with his vile attitude towards the server as if we and the server didn't know what we were talking about. The serving counter is open for all to see and this was clear for everyone to witness in the dining room, disgusting attitude and behaviour by the Chef. It was obvious the steak wasn't cooked correctly when compared to the others at the table. Not what you expect in this type of establishment, and certainly not something we ever experienced under the previous management. Will not be back!
