quick quotes about the left bank from reviewers:
“The service was attentive and friendly but not invasive and we had a wee seat quiet enough to enjoy the buzz but still hold a conversation. The food was nothing short of excellent and the delicate balance of flavours had to be tasted to be believed. We now have a new favourite restaurant in Glasgow and have recommended you to anyone who'll listen.” Stuart and Fiona Crawford 04/01/08


“Normally I'm not someone who writes to places I've been to, but I just felt the need to thank you for the truly special meal I had at the Left Bank last Saturday... Food and service were outstanding, I've been boring all my friends senseless raving about the turkey stuffing alone.” Gesine Strenge 12/12/07


“...I enjoyed everything from the fantastic service to the delicious food and atmosphere that you have created at the left bank. Last weekend was the first time I have had the chance to visit and I have since recommended the left bank to several colleagues and friends as a result. I look forward to returning again soon...” Caroline Inglis 30/11/07
