Mondo

Within the ultra-modern Quad district, Mondo spans a significant space opening at 7am for breakfast. Its advertised phrase ‘Taste the World’ highlights an excellent commitment to dining out. A smoky charcoal interior with warm lighting and shimmering glassware reflects a well-equipped bar, flanked by cabinets showcasing the freshest cuts of meat and fish. The open kitchen hums with activity as chefs prepare sushi and grilled meats to order. An outside terrace bustles with diners and office workers taking advantage of happy hour whilst pondering the menu, safe in the knowledge that this really is the place to be.

The menu is a journey of flavours and tastes, meticulously crafted to order. Begin with starters of Scottish Oysters, Prawn Gyoza or Wagyu Beef Tacos setting up the culinary adventure. The selection of individual sushi rolls and family-sized platters offers a paradise. Do try the Peruvian ceviche dishes for a refreshing, crispy twist. Indulge in pizzas from the wood-burning oven, delivering smoky, crispy perfection. The L’Aragosta, with lobster, pistachio and cranberries, is a must-try. A wide selection of fresh fish and Scottish lobster is offered or savour the exceptionally succulent speciality steaks and brisket cooked in a Josper oven, served in various styles for a mouth-watering experience. Don’t skip dessert; the Chocolate Fudge and Walnut Brownie is exceptional, and the flamed Baked Alaska, perfect for sharing, really is on fire.
