   We decided to stop in for a late dinner, ended up doing a bit of a tasting menu!! Found this to be a unique take on traditional Scottish favorites! Every item we ordered was outstanding!! Meat, fish, wine, cocktails…everything we ordered was delicious!! The staff was gracious, friendly and we felt we found a hidden gem!! Put this on your short list!! Ask for Stefano!

   We are staying at the hotel for a couple days and just came in from Paris. This meal beat every meal we had in Paris, truly. It’s our first time in town and had trouble finding a restaurant… they were very accommodating getting us in close to closing. The food was incredible. The vegetable appetizer with goat cheese was so flavorful, cod for a main dish was tender with amazing potatoes. To top it off dessert was the perfect way to end the meal. Nothing was overpowering the other, just blended and complimented each other well. Our server was very helpful with their extensive whiskey list and made the perfect recommendation.

   This hotel is open to non residents and we enjoyed breakfast on Sunday morning. It’s 26GBP which includes the continental style buffet and a hot breakfast. I like my coffee strong but even I thought the coffee was a bit too strong, but the breakfast was hearty and set us up for a good day exploring the city and a hike up to Arthur’s Seat.

   Stopped into this hotel for breakfast. It’s in the most beautiful neighborhood close to Dean Village which is why we were in the area. They were able to seat us right away at a nice table by the window. Additionally there were outlets and I was able to charge up my phone for the day. Breakfast for 22€ included the continental offerings (juice, pastries, fruit, cereal, cheese & meats) and a cooked to order option. I chose the omelette and my husband ordered a full Scottish. Very good!! Overall a lovely place to stop for a big breakfast before seeing the city.

   The best meal my husband and I have had out in ages. Fantastic fillet steaks, cooked exactly as we requested. Starters, sides and desserts were all bursting with flavour, fresh and complementary. My allergies were taken seriously and catered for. Our waiter greeted us warmly and was friendly, knowledgeable, attentive but not overbearing, and professional. The restaurant was quiet and relaxing. Will definitely be back in future, especially for the excellent food and service.

   Booked a table for 6 people for a surprise birthday and the restaurant called just 5 hours before we were due to arrive to cancel due to illness. Despite me being on the hook for £15 per head had I cancelled my credit card authorised booking within less than 24 hours, no alternative was provided or a future discount offered by way of apology. Whilst I of course understand the situation the restaurant was in, I was left with next to zero dinner options on a very busy Saturday evening (rugby was on that day) for my partners surprise birthday and travelled guests. Ended up having to queue for 90 mins to get in to an alternative place. I kinda feel the £15 per head cancellation charge should work both ways

   If your are in Edinburgh you need to make time to go to this restaurant. Food was beyond DELICIOUS! I HAD the pitted very and cauliflower blue cheese soups followed by Chateau Briand with carrots, cauliflower and portobello mushrooms. It came with bernaise and a red wine reduction sauce. I ate every single bite. For dessert the vegan chocolate mousse was out of this world. I'm sad I only got to eat here one night. Next time will be a definite visit.

   Amazing Chateaubriand cooked to perfection, locally sourced food with a vast drinks menu. Many a good whisky! The staff are very knowledgeable about the produce.
