We've been to New Chapter about 4-5 times since they opened in 2015, and it never disappoints. This might have been the first time we go for the tasting menu, which we thought offered a very good value. Our highlights were the smoked trout and the North Sea Cod!
I loved every bite of it. Innovative and satisfying. Ingredients were complimentary to one another. Portion was just right for a 3-course lunch menu. What I also loved about this restaurant was the "amount" of services they provided, just enough, not too much asking for routine engagement. That gave me space to enjoy the food fully, which was very important to me. That probably accounted to the experience of front-of-house staff to respond to different types of customers and to make them comfortable. A well-deserved five stars.
We had an excellent lunch here. Service was prompt and efficient and the menu good value for the quality on offer. We would definitely eat here again. The dishes were all well presented, with a good portion size and had enjoyable flavours. Have given four out of five as one of the main courses (the sea trout) whilst well cooked was too bland and was a weak point on an otherwise strong menu. The hake was perfectly cooked and went wonderfully well with the courgette and aubergine.
Food was unbelievably good, the house cocktails were refreshing and unique. Sometimes fine dining can be intimidating and so pricey for what you get; this place was worth every penny. The portions were just the right amount- satisfying, but not so much of it that you can't finish it. Perfect place to splurge on a special occasion, or to make your regular spot.
It deserves more than 5 stars, to be honest. My wife and I had the best dining experience here in Edinburgh so far. The environment was very relaxing, the staff were very nice and the food was fantastic! - fresh and delicious! The presentations were good and appealing. Love that!
Wow! This dinner was incredible. My husband said he had never had good this good. Especially the starters, such a great balance of flavours and well thought about dishes. Would highly recommend. Staff were great and the right about of attentiveness.
We had the most exquisite meal here; family friendly too! They catered for our six year old son by frying a fillet of cod and serving with triple cooked chips. He absolutely loved it. Somehow they manage to be extremely warm, friendly, professional and formal at the same time. We would honestly come back every night if we could.
