   A fabulous tasting menu experience. I can honestly say I've not had a better tasting meal, with a well curated set of courses and beautiful wine pairings. Our 7 year old daughter was made to feel most welcome and whilst there was a kids option which could be made up, we choose steak for her and she loved it. The wine pairings were thoughtful and well calibrated, giving a showcase of some slightly less conventional choices, rather than just rehearsing all the "old standards". Our sommelier and server was highly knowledgeable and very thoughtful. She elevated what was already a very good meal into a very memorable experience. One of the genuine highlights of our holiday. The restaurant room also very tastefully decorated, lovely views over Princes Street and dual aspect offering lovely evening dusky light. Definitely recommended!

   First class experience dining at the Pompadour last night. Brilliant, high quality food, beautifully presented with well matched wines. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I would highly recommend and will most definitely be back soon.

   Tasting menu and the paired wines (we also took the extra cheese course and some nice port they recommended). Very enjoyable meal - decided on here due to other positive reviews, particularly feedback on his other restaurant Haar. Lovely setting in the hotel. My partner is Coeliac and they adapted all her dishes to be gluten free (she claims it was the best G/F bread she's ever had!). Tables are well spaced out, so you don't feel like you're sitting on top of each other. Staff were all attentative and knowledgeable about what they were serving - the Head Chef even came out with one course. It felt very relaxed in the restaurant, there was no rushing us. Be aware, there is a service charge (12.5%) automatically applied to the bill. I don't like the presumption of this, but I think the service was worth it (but at the customer's discretion).

   Total rip off. Been to many posh restaurants, Michelin stars etc. the food is good, obviously. Master chef finalist, I wouldn’t expect less. Dean Banks is not a fully established Michelin star chef yet but charges more than other rates restaurants I’ve been to. Won’t be back

   My wife took me for a surprise birthday treat. Wow wow wow. The welcome was very warm our servers were knowledgeable and attentive. The tasting menu and matching wines were quite stunning. The portions were not huge as you would expect but you still left feeling very satisfied. Yes it's expensive. However its a treat. We will be back for sure. Highly recommended.

   My husband and I had a lovely 8 course meal here during our stay. Staff and sommelier were very helpful with their recommendations. Looking forward to coming back someday.
