Family run, cosy atmosphere, very friendly, feels like family. Great service in very clean restaurant. Been going since 2000, and have never had anything but great quality. Once you have had their light crisp batter that's not greasy and their homemade French fries you won't go anywhere else.
I am a big fish and chips eater and I would good ANYWHERE to find a good fish and chips place. There are too few places that can deliver such high quality food. The prices for halibut has skyrocketed due to high demands, because customers like us DEMAND It. Sadly, we are to blame for killing off the halibuts, they now have become a rarity like lobsters and king crabs. The halibut here are REAL halibut and not some fish from the family. If you are willing to pay the price, it is well worth it.
I'm no fish and chip expert but I had the halibut and it was good! The fries were excellent. Not a huge difference in taste between the $8 haddock and the $12 halibut but to each his own. I didn't like the mushy peas but I've never had mushy peas before so maybe I just don't like mushy peas. Friendly staff but I've got to say, the only thing Scottish in the Tartan is the bagpipes on the wall.
Have known Helen, Sam and their daughters ever since they opened the Tartan and have eaten there, picked up from there and whichever way you eat it it is BRILLIANT....The best.
The place is immaculate, we're always served with a smile, The only complaint I have to date (and just recently) not serving Mushy Peas anymore - they were almost as good as homemade and certainly the best in Oakville, Burlington and Mississauga area.
