   Excellent seafood dishes with an unusual twist. Everything was 5* except for the awful mournful music,pop played on a cello or violin in a traditional way.

    My boyfriend and I love fish/seafood and when our usual go-to places were fully booked we tried Kelp. I went in with low expectations and was very pleasantly surprised (although the sister restaurant Ardnamurchan is also very good). All dishes were really flavourful and excellently cooked and the service was fantastic. Have recommended to friends and will definitely come back!

    Beautifully prepared seafood. The menu of small plates means you can try a variety of dishes. We were a party of three and ordered five plus a couple of sides, which was just about right for us. Everything was delicious and perfectly prepared.

    We are visiting Glasgow from Denver, Colorado, USA, very far from any ocean. After a week of Glaswegian-seafood-restaurant-hopping, we were MOST thrilled with “Kelp,” a modern place that had only been open since April. The interior is pleasant and they also have a good-looking outdoor area. - We had Mussels in a rich buttery cream sauce, Scallops in butter with puffed wild rice, and Langostinos in garlic-butter. All were expertly prepared, and the service was efficient and friendly (as is any place run by Glaswegians!).

    All dishes were excellent. Very creative menu. My personal favorite was the oyster with rhubarb and ginger mignionette. We sat outside, near the street. There was no music, so we played our own. A lovely romantic evening.

    Good selection of small plates. Service was a bit slow to begin with. It wasn’t busy and we had to beckon someone over to get menus and order drinks. Picked up when we explained we had theatre tickets. Food arrived quickly and was tasty. Will definitely return for pre theatre. Ps please weed your patio! It could look so much better.

    We ordered a selection of dishes from their small plates menu. The portions were greater than expected for 2 to share. Tobermory Smoked trout was delicious with crispy capers. The Shetland mussels, beer, smoked bacon, leak, sourdough dish was excellent. We also tried the asparagus, wild garlic hummus, sourdough crumb was another great combination which I would highly recommend. The other dish was the isle of Skye landed langoustines with seaweed butter grilled lemon were very tasty but you need to be prepared to peal and crack. The side order of Crispy Roast potatoes with seaweed butter were delicious and crispy. The portion was too large for a side order to share for 2. Finally we tasted two deserts the dark chocolate cremeux, whisky caramel, almond brittle was my favourite. The other was the Basque cheesecake, rhubarb, orange was also a great cheesecake. Overall it was an excellent experience for dinner. I would return to try other very interesting dishes in their menu.

    Excellent food and generally good service. it was quite quiet but otherwise everything was excellent. We chose from the market menu. The smoked mackerel with samphire was excellent, and I enjoyed the chicken confit. the chips were nothing special. Saw the daily fresh fish delivery come in so I will be coming back to try the shellfish next time. They also do Oysters and my friend soup looked amazing and she raved about it. they also have a great outdoor bit next time its sunny I’m there.

    Great food and lovely service. A bit more expensive than expected. Our table wasn't quite clean enough (weirdly sticky), and the menu was a bit grubby (surprising for a place that's only been open a few months) and the bathrooms could be nicer.

    Really enjoyed a 3 course Saturday afternoon family lunch from market menu which was very good value with generous portions. Even more importantly it was creative and v tasty. Although the emphasis is on fish there are other good options. Comfortable and did not feel rushed thanks to the kind and helpful waitress.

    Fantastic hidden gem at top end of city centre. Welcoming staff who were helpful with feedback on dishes prior to and during service. The food was fantastic and just the right size , the sweet and sour mussels starter was fabulous (amazing how many mussels can fit in a small bowl). Value was excellent, will by back to sample more of the menu.
