Acanthus Restaurant
EatScotland's's independent assessor said:
"Acanthus is a small, intimate restaurant in a friendly and cosy little hotel in the centre of Perth, enjoying excellent views over the South Inch. The menu is brief, but ambitious, offering a good range of dishes made from excellent fresh ingredients."
Seared Shetland Scallops, Ham Hock, Apricot & Pine Nut Faggot with Apple Sauce
"Presented with three seared scallops on a bed of apple puree with an appealing faggot of ham, apricot and pine nut to the centre. The scallops were of good quality and the faggot was fresh and of vibrant flavours."
Fillet of Aberdeen Beef, Mushroom Ravioli, Crumbed Baby Carrots, Butternut Gnocchi & Cauliflower Truffle Veloute
"The steak was tender and flavoursome it balanced perfectly with the ravioli and vegetables to create textures and flavours that married superbly. The ingredients used were of the highest standards."
Steamed Ginger Pudding
"The ginger pudding encompassed with sauce Anglaise and attractive quenelles of home made vanilla bean ice cream on top. The pudding was light, had a good moist texture and was very well executed."
The food is essentially modern Scottish, with the occasional other influence making an appearance. Dishes are prepared using top quality local produce from the best of Scotland's larder and cooked sensibly and with flair. We can cater for individual dietary requirements. Contemporary décor gives an intimate atmosphere suitable for a quiet romantic dinner or to gather a small group of friends for a celebration. The restaurant also has a private dining room or alternatively the entire space can be booked for functions.
