Great place with great service. So welcoming and warm. The food is lovely. We had a feast for 6 of us from their market menu pre theatre. Well priced wine list too. Recommended.

Fantastic tapas at one of the best seafood restaurants near the Royal Opera House. The scallops were cooked to perfection. The crab donut was moist and nice sauce by the side. The little clams were good too. Coley was good too. The sourdough bread was filling too. Service was fantastic too!

Absolutely top quality seafood. Service amazing and a great wine selection. I’ve eaten at most of the good seafood restaurants in Glasgow and in my opinion,Kelp is currently the best.

We just had a lovely dinner here tonight. The food was excellent 10/10. Very fresh seafood, so delicious. First of all, the oysters were so good, we tried with different sauce. The crab pancake was so delicate comes with amazing sauce. Langoustines were the best, perfect. Clams and mussels are my favorite and they were the best I have ever had in Scotland. The atmosphere is great, nice place for family dinner/couples. Customer service was amazing, we were only waiting for a few minutes for the clams we ordered but it came very quickly and she told us it’s on the house, which we didn’t expect. We would still happily pay for this quality food and service. It’s our first time here but we would surely come back again very soon.

We went for lunch. Restaurant was busy, the food was fantastic. All the dishes tasted fresh with great quality seafood. The dessert was great too.

This is a Scottish seafood restaurant, with small plates to share. I'd say about 2-3 plates per person hits the right spot. Since there were 4 of us, we decided to try all their market menu plates and 2 of their deserts. We expected not to like a few, but we ended up loving all of them. The food really is on point here. The cocktails were very good as well. The service was professional. The prices were good and it was refreshing to not see any ridiculous service charges - a tip well earned. Overall a great experience and we'll definitely be back.

Everything is perfect ! The staff are helpful and welcoming. The oysters are a bit small , they are fresh and tasty ! The scallops cooked well and taste good ! The coley has crispy skin and meaty , we lovw every dish here

One of my favourite restaurants in Glasgow! All dishes were made with fresh, high-quality ingredients and tasted absolutely divine! In combination with delicious cocktails and attentive staff, we had a tremendous evening. We are already looking forward to our next visit!
