Tempura a little over cooked but fish perfect...hit and miss with chef I thinkParking: Closest carpark is paid but surface is atrocious full of potholes be wary

Great place, me and a friend went after getting tattoos for some food and a few drinks had some of the valentines cocktails and they were amazing, I'd recommend the Cajun fries as they were delicious ?

Atmosphere was ( omg should we really come in here).Dry and off,Sever was okish, ordered burgers cany really go wrong as I love slaw, and meat, the veg were struggling to survive in the mayo, was as well just given me the mayo jar, the meat was tasteless no seasoning at all, complained and we said we would eat as I hate food waste, left the poor veg to try and crawl to saftey in there mayo bath.Chef never even bothered a return comment .

After a long day shopping in the rain in Ayr we opted for ASK because it was close by, inexpensive, had good reviews and had an amazing Gluten free selection.Lovely, spotless, airy place, comfortable booth, friendly welcome and prompt drink service. Food took a while to come despite it being relatively quiet but this can often be a sign that the food will be freshly prepared and worth the wait.By the time the food arrived we were starving; it looked good, so we dug in. Unfortunately we had a few major and a couple of minor issues.The beef burger didn't arrive with the bacon as advertised. After one bite of the dry pattie, our son decided that It really did need the bacon to add some flavour and moisture. It took ages, several attempts & some hand waving to finally get someone's attention. The restaurant had gotten busier by this stage but a courtesy check a few minutes after the food is placed should be routine.Bacon was then offered and brought (not well rendered) on a side plate; offering to replace the now cool burger would have been better.GF Veggie burger was completely inedible and got sent back- more a potato cake in breadcrumb than a burger; a dry potato pattie containing almost raw veg, a pale crumb, very little seasoning, flavour and no condiment to add moisture to the GF roll. We didn't have time to wait for an alternative order at this point. Sweet potato fries were nice.Chicken Balmoral was ok but the chicken was dry and the GF haggis was unusual in flavour & texture- dry, almost crunchy and lacked that spicy depth of flavour you'd expect from haggis.Kids chicken tempura & chips was massive but the chicken was very dry, bland and the batter was pale and a bit doughy in places.The problems we raised, when we managed to attract the attention of staff, were remedied eventually, we weren't charged for the sketchy veggie burger & sincere apologies were offered by the lovely staff.We've had great dinners and experiences at the stage door cafe and the new place in Silverburn from the same group but the food and service just weren't up to scratch at ASK on this occasion and I'm not sure that we'd give it another try.

An accidental stop because my wife got the wrong day for the start of our holiday (we were a day early for the ferry ?).Atmosphere was great. My daughter loved the music. Very clean place.The service was great!Now for the review on the food.... we had the trio of meat. It looked stunning on the plate and the taste was amazing. My youngest had the kids menu macaroni which she said was delicious.We got the Carrot cake for dessert which was extremely delicious.For an accidental stop I am. More than satisfied. We will be back!!!!

We went here prior to a nearby theatre production. I chose the 7 oz. AAA steak and ordered it medium rare. When our meals appeared, my steak was overdone and very, very thin. When our server came to the table to check on us, I showed her the condition of the steak. She agreed that it was overdone and offered to have another to replace this one. I declined AA's everything else was good. She appeared later to advise they were talking my meal off the bill! I was delighted to hear this. I further explained that mistakes (no pun intended) can happen but what's important is how the establishment reacts to the problem. Cudos to the server and the establishment for doing the right thing. Btw, my wife's chose a chicken dish which was excellent ?

Was there last night and can honestly say one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Staff lovely, food delicious and piping hot. Will definitely be back.
Dropped in with the Grandchildren for lunch and were warmly welcomed and shown to the beer garden. Food was varied with great menu freshly prepared and served in boxes for ease. Staff helpful attentive and pleasant . Great for families.

Tragically quiet when we went, but it was fairly early. Really friendly staff and management. The sooner the folk of Ayr, and surrounding areas, start going out out again, the better!

Too dear for beer and no tennents lager ...your kiddin couldnt get 2pints for 10 pounds lower prices get punters in .a decent beer garden but

Meal could not be faulted. Service above what i would expect. Even the cost of the whole night could not be faulted. We had a birthday in our group and there was no issue about a cake. I think.the staff ate most of it as we were too full . We were more than delighted with our night. By the way some of us are in the catering industry. Well done ASK. Still going to A SK still the top standard that we've got to expect. Staff still well trained polite and helpful thanks againVegetarian options: They are there for the askingKid-friendliness: Don't have any small children. But they seem to be happy and prepared to be looked on favourableWheelchair accessibility: I know this for a fact. The staff are very happy to help?
