Square Meal Review of The Wee Restaurant ?

Under the rumble of the Forth Rail Bridge in the tidy waterside village of North Queensferry, this bite-sized establishment (fewer than 30 covers) opened in spring 2006 determined to provide decent food at mid-market prices. Fife-Edinburgh commuters stop off on weeknights, while weekends see the place full of diners delighted to have a local option. Decor is functional, & the kitchen offers three courses starting with excellent scallops enlivened by gazpacho, followed by crispy, pan-fried sea bass on a bed of truffled lentils with red wine jus or rib-eye steak with rocket salad, & vanilla pannacotta with raspberries & coconut tuile to finish. Small scale, professional & personal, this is capital dining without the usual city hassles.

    As the name suggests this is indeed a ‘wee’ restaurant, so it is a little cramped in the 20 seater living room sized restaurant.

    In a lovely location just beneath the Forth rail bridge close to the banks of the Firth.

    The friendly and efficient service was very good, as was the food. I started with a French onion soup, which was very tasty but the crouton and cheese being on the side was a little odd. The mains were a smoked haddock on garlic mash with spaghetti leeks and a poached egg on top, which was very good and tasty, as was the rib eye angus, great taste and well cooked. To finish we had chocolate fondant and a white mouse, both deliciously decadent, although the fondant was a touch over cooked.

    Admittedly I was driving so we only had 3 glasses of wine between us, but at around £85 including tip and coffes, it was very good value.

    For a local restaurant it is certainly worth the visit if you are in the Edinburgh/ Fife area. I’ll be going back next time I am up that way.
