Restaurant Name: T.G.I. FRiDAYS

Good family restaurant with lots of American memorabilia including a great pictures of American greats from the music world, my favourite Elvis was smiling right behind me.
If it's your Birthday the staff will parade around the restaurant singing "Happy Birthday" complete with sparklers and a cake. On my most recent visit we were here as two families, spanning four generations, to meet for the first time and celebrate with Fraser and Debbie on the birth of their Son Adam. The staff did a great job seating twenty people at one table, serving up drinks and food for all with no one waiting very long for their own lunch.

Favorite Dish: The steak platters are a good choice served up with Jack Daniel's special BBQ sauce. I love the ribs and wings tower just perfect for sharing. The desserts are huge it is a good ideaa to order one between two cuts the calories and the cost. Drinks are expensive but free refills are offered on all soft drinks.

Dine in an old mill

Restaurant Name: Mill of Mundurno

Pleasant family restaurant with old world charm. An out of town location incorporating motel style accommodation. The restaurant caters well for children with special menus & kids drinks & provides a safe & fun outdoor playarea.

Favorite Dish: We usually stop here when shopping in Aberdeen on our way home. The food is good traditional stuff, but they have many specials, I sometimes have the tandoori chicken with mango chutney. Please note : check your table number & order & pay at the bar

Irish Pubs

Restaurant Name: O'Neills

The food is standard pub grub - good for a quick snack - but don't spend time here on a full meal.
The decor is meant to be old but this place is in need of a face lift - torn bar stools peeling paint...................not great.................
Beware the toilets - clean enough but sign posted in Irish - Mina- ladies & Fir - gents

Favorite Dish: A quick snack & a quick getaway!!
If your into sport you can watch Irish football on a big screen - don't really see the point in a Scottish city

New York Style

Restaurant Name: Frankie & Benny's

Aberdeen is a University town so who knows where your server will come from, but you will always receive perfect attention here. The servers are friendly and attentive, explaining menus and choices, they do a good job.
Modern and spacious, the restaurant is designed around a typical New York Dinner, there are a lot of old pictures of Italians in New York and it has a definate 1940's atmosphere

Favorite Dish: I had an Italian pasta dish & American dessert combining both counties = yummy

Miami Beach

Restaurant Name: Miami Beach

Give it a miss, this place looks posh and is well advertised locally, the only good thing about this restaurant is if you book tickets for a movie at the adjacent cinema you get two for one on your main course. The food is nothing to write home about. There are lots more decent restaurants in this vicinty, so make your choice somewhere else.

Favorite Dish: NOTHING GOOD HERE YOU WOULD BE BETTER OFF WITH MACDONALDS OR BURGER KING!!
