Extremely tasty food, everything is very well seasoned, fresh and delicious. I recommend the beef duckling and the soup of the day. For main I ordered the stake with potato and mushroom puree, extremely well served (I shared the dish with my husband). For dessert we had chocolate pie with whiskey sauce, excellent and balanced. Wide selection of Whiskey. Price ok for the UK.

We didn't realize this was as fancy an establishment as it is. And that is a good thing! We felt comfortable asking questions and receiving suggestions from the amazing staff. The food was spectacular and the guidance on pairing the Scotch with each dish was amazing. The Haggis stuffed Chicken was a dish I never thought of combining, it was perfect!!! Anyone wanting to get the best of Scotch Whisky and Scotch cuisine at the same location should book a time here. It does not disappoint!

Amber Restaurant is truly exceptional! From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by a stunning decor that perfectly blends elegance with a welcoming vibe. The menu is a culinary masterpiece, showcasing innovative dishes made from the freshest ingredients. Each plate is a work of art, bursting with flavor and creativity. The service is impeccable—knowledgeable staff are always on hand to offer recommendations and ensure your dining experience is top-notch. I was particularly impressed by the signature cocktails and the dessert selection, which is simply out of this world. Amber Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in a remarkable dining experience!

We had dinner at Amber as the final part of the whiskey tour experience (very nice). Pleasant environment with discreet and friendly staff. The menu in our case included fixed choices but all very good, tasty and carefully presented. The menu varies in different periods so you may find things different from what we had. The price of the complete whiskey tour experience plus dinner is not exactly cheap, around 110 euros per person but overall I recommend you do it.

Nice place to have a simple but tasty lunch and then treat yourself to a whiskey flight for tasting. There are different combinations of whiskey tastings, always 4 glasses. Starts at around 21 pounds, you can vary. There are various cards: a whiskey card with many varieties (certainly not all), a "flight" card with various combinations of 4 samples each and of course the menu, which also offers great snacks, snacks and tapas if you only drink whiskey would like to taste. You can buy everything you've tried in the neighboring shop, but it's a little more expensive there than if you buy online from specialized retailers, so it's worth comparing. All in all a great experience right at Edinburgh Castle. The staff is super friendly and competent.

We were recommended to visit Amber by a local, and he was 100% right. I would have thought a restaurant this close to Edinburgh's main tourist attraction would be a tourist trap, but it is absolutely not. We did have to wait since it's not a large space, but we also didn't make a reservation so that's on us. The staff was patient and very helpful. Service was excellent. The food was fantastic and incredibly well priced. Add the whisky flights and it was a great lunch. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Edinburgh. The whisky bar alone is worth a visit, but get the food. Please.

We did not have time for the experience/tour so we just went down to Amber and did a tasting. We chose the Regional Collection and added a glass of Drambuie... for dessert. The server was very informative, explaining each Scotch in turn. He also recommended how we do the tasting (smell, swirl, taste, add a drop of water and taste again, etc). We had tasting sheets with pencils to fill out and compare. We added a very nice cheese platter to cleanse our palate. The restaurant is very relaxed and not loud so conversation was easy. This is a simply marvelous place and amazing location.

We tried to book a table here due to a friend’s recommendation, but it was fully booked. As its pretty centrally located, we decided to give it a chance anyway and stop by to check. Surprisingly there were several free tables (I guess they limit the numbers for online reservations?) Anyway, I’m so happy we took the chance. The chicken breast with bacon and haddis is AMAZING, especially with the whiskey sauce. It was my first try of haddis, and while I was very skeptical, it didn’t taste weird at all 😂 And this comes from someone who’s very picky with her food. I would definitely recommend this dish and this restaurant.

I have been to Amber multiple times, with my husband and with friends - we have never been disappointed. We love it there and recommend it to anyone who asks about places to eat in Edinburgh! We went recently and booked the Taste of Scotland menu. I informed the staff that I was pregnant so, unfortunately, could not eat haggis. The service we received was fantastic. All staff that we came into contact with (Jethro when booking, Ben, Holly, Rachel and Phoebe on the evening) made sure that I was happy with how my meat was cooked, adapted a dish that would have usually had haggis in it, and swapped the whisky that would come with the dessert to a mocktail. Food was delicious, as always. If you have never been, you must go!

We were just looking to get some light lunch before the trip to Edinburg Castle. We don’t drink but the reviews were good enough for us to try this restaurant. It is located conveniently at the basement of the Scotch whisky experience building, on the Royal Mile. We had the salmon from the Starters and Scottish tapas, both were delicious. The best thing about the tapas was that you got to taste a few types of Scottish tapas and whisky, even though we don’t drink, we could at least taste the wine. We really appreciate the waiter Oliver who patiently explained to us about the menu, and when we asked for water, he would include tap water which is uncommon in a high end restaurant, let alone those in a tourist area. Another thing is that they don’t automatically include tips. Just not a typical restaurant in popular tourist spots that wants to ripoff tourists, they also gave us very good impressions of Scots. Highly recommended!

I was pleasantly surprised by the exceptional quality and taste of the food here—it exceeded all my expectations. Plus, the location is incredibly convenient, just a stone's throw away from Edinburgh Castle. I indulged in some delicious Haggis and sampled a variety of whiskies 🥃. The waiter was incredibly knowledgeable and recommended a peated regional selection once he learned that my favorite is Talisker 10-year. A delightful experience all around! The only downside was that the whiskey in the gift shop seemed a bit pricey. £50 for Talisker 10y😼

What a wonderful experience. My wife and I were looking at going on a whisky tour but decided to have lunch and try out some of the whisky in the bar. We were novices in understanding all the unique tastes. We explained that to Phil and he brought over four different bottles so that we could get a smell of them. He ran the corks from the bottle on the inside of a glass. Phil answered all our questions. Since it was the first time that I had drank whisky (I'm a beer guy) my wife took my picture. Phil saw what was going on and brought the bottle over to include it in the photo. What a great first time. Now for the food. Both of us had the grilled chicken sandwich with bacon and cheese. It was fantastic. I would highly recommend the Amber Restaurant and Whisky Bar. Everyone was so friendly and made you feel at home. Just a note - it's just before you go into the castle.

What can I say, after having a whisky experience, it felt the right place to go after the tasting, and what a brilliant decision. The restaurant is very nicely laid out, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal on what was an extremely cold night. We chose the Taste of Scotland menu and were not disappointed. My husband has a cream allergy and they even changed his dishes - well done to the chef. The three starters (haggis, salmon and pate) and three mains (chicken, venison and trout) were excellent and each one very different. I did think I was going to be hungry as they were not huge meals, however I was pleasantly surprised after sticky toffee pudding and the Edradour whisky.

Interesting experience to try the flavors of Scotland. Negative things: 1. High cost overall 2. Small portions 3. Service too fast and hasty. You had the feeling of having to eat quickly and leave. 4. The dishes arrived almost instantly. They had already been pre-assembled and cooked. Upon our arrival they were then heated in the microwave. Nonetheless, the food wasn't bad. If the overall cost of the experience were lower, these defects would be acceptable.

Amazing place if you are in hurry or need a little brake on your adventure in Edinburgh. The people working here are super friendly and the prices are good. They have soup of the day if you need something warm and great selection of tasty pies (chicken and mushroom is my favorite). Totaly worth visit at least once!

I booked for breakfast at the cafe. Excellent little cafe that opened around 7.30am in the weekday. They have Matcha Lattes and accommodate for milk alternatives. I am not vegan but ordered the vegan breakfast which was excellent. I also ordered a piece of Banana bread to take away for later in the day (which was also very good). Fast service, loved this place, alot of people turned up as soon as they opened so they were popular.

This place served such great quality food, so beautifully presented, lovely relaxed atmosphere. Felt that prices were right. Would love to go back here and have recommended it to friends.
