* Brett now bills itself as a modern European restaurant serving a conventional three-course carte rather than a series of global small plates. Watch for a new review coming soon. * Brett is the colloquial name for rogue yeasts that can add funky complexity to wine. While this 'natural wine bar and eatery' (from the team behind Glasgow high flyer Cail Bruich) isn't exactly rogue, it does exude an edgy confidence. Cheery chefs execute a complex choreography in the small open kitchen where open-fire cooking adds drama and depth of flavour. Seasonal ingredients sing in deceptively simple dishes such as chargrilled squid with smoked chilli and coriander or delicate salted baby chicken with zesty lime and soft Vietnamese herbs. To finish, a ripely runaway Gorgonzola comes with its own mini pecan pie and pecan pickles, while chocolate délice with Caol Ila caramel and puffed barley delivers a grown-up sugar rush.

Brett is the colloquial name for rogue yeasts that can add funky complexity to wine. While this 'natural wine bar and eatery' (from the team behind Glasgow high flyer Cail Bruich) isn't exactly rogue, it does exude an edgy confidence. Cheery chefs execute a complex choreography in the small open kitchen where open-fire cooking adds drama and depth of flavour.

To finish, a ripely runaway Gorgonzola comes with its own mini pecan pie and pecan pickles, while chocolate délice with Caol Ila caramel and puffed barley delivers a grown-up sugar rush. Dishes can be shared 'small plate style' or you could follow a more traditional structure. Sides such as sourdough with chicken fat or brown-butter baked potato with torched raclette could easily be a cheeky wee nibble if you’re only having a drink. The wine list offers a voyage of discovery, homing in on small producers who favour minimal intervention and the natural approach to winemaking. Down-to-earth staff will help you navigate with enthusiasm, expertise and some well-judged banter. The limited space is maximised through high seats and tables, with a small mezzanine and welcome outdoor space for sunny days. With hip industrial lighting and steel gantrys holding the glistening range of Riedels, there whole place has a stylish, contemporary feel – although it's more about the vibrant buzz than secluded intimacy.
