“This place is super kitcshy and fun with the cowboy theme, not something you'd expect so close to the 'historic Pantiles' but it's great to have something so different. And the food is actually great! Definitely not optimal if you're on a diet, though I did have a very nice chicken salad. Great place for a bday party or to bring kids. We were also pleased to see the charismatic bearded gentleman at the front of the house who used to work at The Buzz! He always creates a lovely and jovial atmosphere. In general, the staff is extremely friendly and attentive. Well worth a visit if you like American/Tex-Mex cuisine!”

“Came here for a late dinner and it was really nice. I really enjoyed the food, it was nice and tasty. The staff were lovely also and I loved the general theme of the restaurant. Will definitely have to come back on a Friday, when they have live music.”

“Love it, been a few times while away for work and finally brought the wife here last night. It was packed as expected but we had booked so no issues. Staff were attentive, and considering the number of patrons we were served really quickly. Liam took the time for a chat and we loved the enthusiasm of all the staff. Food was decent and the price was reasonable. Atmosphere was fantastic, especially if there was a birthday, and there were three while we were there 😀 Only complaint is that there are none in Scotland ☺️”

“I’ll be honest… defo not the best. Food is definitely cooked from frozen, quite bland and 100% not worth the price. I had the ribs and wings, and the wings themselves were practically inedible. My partner had a burger, grey meat overly sweet sauce just not great… To top it off service was terribly slow. Very disappointing.”

“Came here for a meal out during the week, was a very nice setting and atmosphere overall. Staff are friendly and it really feels like you’re in this environment. The staff were nice, however, they don’t use a notepad or iPad to do the orders, they have to remember which person has asked for what. This causes a chance for error, which was the case during our visit. Ordered the nacho side but never arrived, some orders were with different sauces which we didn’t ask to - we asked for a different sauce. I wouldn’t say it’s anything major, but just something to note. Food was pretty good too, ok prices. Overall I’d come back if I was in the area, nothing to write home about but was a decent time out.”
