Glorious meal with each dish highlighting the freshest local ingredients. Obvious time, thought, and heart in each dish. After our meal, to free up our table , we were "invited" to take our after dinner drinks in the relaxed bar. Bartender very knowledgable and enthusiastically helped us choose a sampling of scotch. Great service. Our hotel had a problem and... More

We had the 6-course Tasting Menu and Wine Package and although it cost more than our first holiday abroad it was worth every penny. We have booked lunch for our... More

Not only best in Edinburgh, it's hard to eat better food anywhere in the UK. There is evident utmost care for sourcing the produce here, Chef Kitchin probably gets the very best Scotland can offer (of late they have also started the little cute gimmick of giving you a map showing you all the places the food is sourced from)....
