Fishers Restaurant in Leith, Edinburgh

Reviews

1. Luke Newton ★★★★★

   We found ourselves here as the least planned meal of our 10 day trip. We were delayed in arriving to our hotel so some nicer lunch options were done with service but it ended up being one of the most pleasant surprises. We selected it bc it was close and had good reviews on Google. We sort of expected it to be a tourist trap sea food place on the docks but it ended up being some of the best sea food we had on the trip The seafood was perfectly cooked and served in a Thai style red curry. And the dessert was a cake with ice cream and a caramel sauce (we fell in love with that dessert in the UK) was one of the bast we had.

   Had a fantastic seafood meal at Fishers at Leith. Fresh and succulent North Atlantic Prawns, so fresh that I ate the shell whole. Seatrout which has a tinge of aroma with each layer eaten. Scallops juicy and sweet, which were excellent starters and finisher. Oysters which were lip-smacking, drink its juices! Fish soup was wholesome, nutritious and great accompanying dish. Fantastic service, top-class cooks. Simply amazing. Will eat here again if I'm back to Edinburgh.

   A real delight! After enjoying The Shore Bar next door, we decided to try this place. The waitresses were very polite, and the oysters were excellent. The dining room can feel a bit noisy when it’s full. At lunchtime, you can enjoy a great meal here for a very reasonable price, but as always, it’s best to book in advance.

   Fishers seems like a tradition to the locals. Decoration is kind of vintage, but it was enjoyable for us. We ordered Creamy fish soup - super delicious and rich in flavor, Curry and Seatrout. Curry was strong and spicy, but its definetely worth a try. Seatrout was a solid 8 plate, not surprising, but tasty. Overall experience was nice, you can visit this neighborhood if you want something different than city center, and also get some sea breeze as well.

   Nice spot - it's got that fancy pub vibe with classy decor and a chill atmosphere. I tried the oysters and they were straight fire! Fresh, briny, and just the right amount of chewiness. Definitely a must-try if you're into seafood. The service was on point and the staff were cool and friendly.

   We stumbled on this absolute gem of a place and had a fantastic time - wonderful and attentive service from the staff, and some of the best and freshest seafood we’ve ever had. We ordered the Queenie scallops - tender and tantalizing - the lightly battered squid, amazingly fresh oysters and the wild halibut. Perfect with white wine. Thank you for an incredible night out in this cozy spot by the water. Our server was amused that we asked for the menu three times - we loved the food that much.

   Absolutely amazing restaurant with good atmosphere, friendly and helpful waitress, and best seafood in town. I came here for its famous seafood platter which is satisfying. Also, it’s fish soup impressed me so much by its creamy taste and nicely cooked fish inside. All the food here satisfied me really much with reasonable price. I’d recommend seafood lovers who visited Leith give it a try.

   It’s is my favorite restaurant in Edinburgh, fresh seafood, flavorful, delicious food! We have tried the fish soup, fish cake and the mussels, if I could eat more I would! The staff were super sympathetic and friendly, even interested in our plans for the day, the atmosphere is not touristic at all, very casual, comfortable and cozy.
