Great restaurant if you're visiting Edinburgh. Fantastic food and great ambiance inside. I think it's worth mentioning that this place is far better than some of the reviews from 2+ years ago suggest. Cocktails were also top class and very generous in size. Great host who always had a smile and made us feel very welcome.

Incredible food and incredible service. Couldn’t fault one single thing about this place. Had the beef which was cooked perfectly, beverages were wonderful and the environment is second to none. Thoroughly recommend this to anyone heading to Edinburgh, or even going for a date night.

We only stumbled across this lovely restaurant by taking a wrong turn. But we decided to see if they had any availability. We were greeted by very nice and polite staff and we were seated right away. The food was outstanding and the presentation of the food was amazing. Great decor and a lovely atmosphere. Would recommend for couples, groups or families.
