Stopped into this hotel for breakfast. It’s in the most beautiful neighborhood close to Dean Village which is why we were in the area. They were able to seat us right away at a nice table by the window. Additionally there were outlets and I was able to charge up my phone for the day. Breakfast for 22€ included the continental offerings (juice, pastries, fruit, cereal, cheese & meats) and a cooked to order option. I chose the omelette and my husband ordered a full Scottish. Very good!! Overall a lovely place to stop for a big breakfast before seeing the city.

Truly loved our dinner date at Blackwood’s. The ox cheek was incredibly tender and full of flavour—easily the highlight of the meal. Cosy atmosphere, beautiful presentation, and first-class service from Stefano made the night extra special. Highly recommend!

An absolute delight! I had the squid ink ravioli (which has been on my mind for days), the steak (perfect crust) and the brownie with pistachio ice cream (rich and delicious). The service was top notch as well and had a wonderful date. Highly recommended!

Staying at the hotel and decided to dine in and so glad we did. The service was second to none, the food was absolutely wonderful and there were options for children too. The châteaubriant was so delicious and everything was cooked just as we’d asked. You have to try the cherries with the brownie, I almost didn’t but Stefano recommended them and I wasn’t disappointed or with the pistachio gelato. Top marks to the chef, thank you. Just had the vegetarian breakfast and that too was delicious and the choice for continental was great too. Highly recommend

We had the steak (21 years old), but waited 45min for the course. Steak was okay, sadly quite a bit of grissel

Got tricked by previous reviews. To be fair the staff and the place is great, however the food wasn’t what I expected from a restaurant. The appetizers were good but the mains were really off, we had the risotto that was clearly undercooked and we had the duck breast that was overcooked.

Very nice restaurant and impeccable service, but the food was not up to par with my humble but learned understanding. Especially the eggplant was half raw and chewy and the salmon was quite scarce. The risotto, on the other hand, was good.

We were left destitute by booking .com for a 2 bedroom apartment next door and the Hotel, management and staff came to our help allowing us acess to all of their facilities and superb service. If the hotel wasnt already fully booked we wouldn't of hesitated to stay with them. Pure inadultartated quality

A wee hidden gem just off Queen street. It’s a part of a hotel apartments. The steak (rib eye) I ordered was one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. Options are minimal but the taste and quality is unparalleled. Recommend.

Perfect atmosphere, perfect food. This was the best lamb I have ever had… and I came here just to try the lamb. I was blown away. The service was perfect. Great attention to detail. The desserts were too difficult to choose from so I had 3 - they were all delicious!

Truly a hidden gem! Amazing food and service; they take casual elegance to the next level (without the crazy prices)!

Sorry, that was lousy. Slow, tried hard but unprofessional service, quality so far good but lousy timing (frites arrived 10 (!) minutes after the Châteaubriand). Without apology… All of this at a very high price. Ambience totally out of date.

We went here as the place we wanted to go was closed, and so glad we did. From our host, to our food, everything was excellent: an absolute hidden gem on a quiet street. Will definitely be coming back here after a 5 star experience. Big thanks to our host, he was fantastic and a good chat. The steak was perfect.

The best meal my husband and I have had out in ages. Fantastic fillet steaks, cooked exactly as we requested. Starters, sides and desserts were all bursting with flavour, fresh and complementary. My allergies were taken seriously and catered for. Our waiter greeted us warmly and was friendly, knowledgeable, attentive but not overbearing, and professional. The restaurant was quiet and relaxing. Will definitely be back in future, especially for the excellent food and service.

Wir hatten zur Vorspeise Eine wunderbare Melazane Tempora - als Hauptspeise einen leckeren Lachs und als Nachtisch Cheesecake . Es war ein toller Abend und wir wurden rundum verwöhnt vom Team Blackwoods.

Booked a table for 6 people for a surprise birthday and the restaurant called just 5 hours before we were due to arrive to cancel due to illness. Despite me being on the hook for £15 per head had I cancelled my credit card authorised booking within less than 24 hours, no alternative was provided or a future discount offered by way of apology. Whilst I of course understand the situation the restaurant was in, I was left with next to zero dinner options on a very busy Saturday evening (rugby was on that day) for my partners surprise birthday and travelled guests. Ended up having to queue for 90 mins to get in to an alternative place. I kinda feel the £15 per head cancellation charge should work both ways

If your are in Edinburgh you need to make time to go to this restaurant. Food was beyond DELICIOUS! I HAD the pitted very and cauliflower blue cheese soups followed by Chateau Briand with carrots, cauliflower and portobello mushrooms. It came with bernaise and a red wine reduction sauce. I ate every single bite. For dessert the vegan chocolate mousse was out of this world. I'm sad I only got to eat here one night. Next time will be a definite visit.

Much more posh than I expected from the previous reviews but very nice and welcoming! The food was excellent, not cheap but you get what you pay for. The steaks are sourced from a local butcher but it was slightly undercooked for my taste. Definitely worth a visit!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Food & Exceptional Service! I had such a wonderful dining experience at this family-run Turkish restaurant! The platter they served was absolutely delicious—packed with authentic flavors and generous portions. You can truly taste the love and care put into the food. What stood out even more was the service. The waiter (who I believe is the owner’s son) was incredibly hardworking, attentive, and kind. It’s always heartwarming to see a family pouring their passion into their business. His dedication alone made the meal even more special, and I was happy to leave a tip for such great service. If you’re looking for delicious Turkish cuisine and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the place! I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!
