Faultless, attentitive and friendly service by Andreas, Cameron and a lady whose name we didn't catch. The food was very enjoyable, as was the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion!

The tasting menu was fabulous! My fiancé had such an amazing time…honestly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. The gentleman helping us, I think Andreas, was on top of everything and made the experience even better! Russ was also great and both made wonderful wine recommendations. Honestly, one of my favorite dinners in all the countries I’ve been!

We booked Dean Banks at the Pompadour based on online reviews and his reputation. The food was absolutely delicious, complimented by the paired wines.
What set this restaurant apart from other fine dining experiences we have had in Edinburgh was the outstanding service from the restaurant manager Andrea, supported by Cameron.
You should expect outstanding service at a restaurant such as The Pompadour, but Andrea’s warmth, knowledge and instinct to be available when you needed him for advice on the menu set this restaurant apart.

A great way to experience this restaurant without spending too much is to have the lobster lunch. Exceptionally tasty food, served by knowledgeable staff in great surroundings. Lovely views across Edinburgh, spacious restaurant, and such interesting flavours. No choice but I trust the experts. Extras were well recommended but with no expectation that they would be ordered. We did, and we’re not disappointed.

It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was really tasty and beautifully concocted, and the wines complemented it very well.
Our waiter was attentive and fun, and the whole meal created warm memories that we'll enjoy for a very long time.

We were in a group of friends celebrating my husband’s birthday, and was an amazing experience from the entrance up to the end. My husband is a vegetarian and had a veggie/vegan menu, I had some food restrictions and they gave the flexibility of mixing the veggie and regular menu, fitting your taste.
Food was high quality, some very surprising mixture of flavours, memorable.
The staff was professional and friendly made us feel like we were at home, extremely attentive to any queries and offered great suggestions of beverages and wine.
Definitely a place to come back.

A wonderful tasting menu and easy to say 5 stars. The menu did not seem to be choregraphed to bring out the chef's culinary style though. It was more like showcasing every good ingredient from land and sea. Every dish was competing to one another, still it was an interesting approach.
