We just popped in by chance and got a table, we live very close and had been thinking about it. Great atmosphere and service, the food is very fresh but a couple of our dishes could have been a wee bit better. The roasted cod was more poached, the octopus was nice but the baba overpowered it. A bit more seasoning too, but that's a personal thing. That said, it was lovely and would not stop us going back.

Unique cosy setting with top quality food. Unfortunately not very helpfull with finding forgotten I phone . Probably the waitress of that evening not willing to help. Lucky we insisted and went to check personally to find the phone under the table.☘️ We surely are convinced the owner didn t know about this. So when back in town we will surely return to this top place and forget about the waitress.

This was far from the best food I had in Edinburgh, and was twice the price. Everything was at least okay, but nothing was exceptional.

The food was good however I had to report wine serving was not according to standard (I’m a professional wine taster). I complained that we didn’t get to see the bottles of our glasses nor we could taste the wine. The worst part was the manager was trying to imply “in this country” rules are different from where I’m from. That sounded like a racist response. And, by the way, I have lived in the UK for more than three years before. Hugely disappointing.

This is my favourite hidden gem in Edinburgh. Their food is to die for, especially the seafood platter and the octopus. Cosy, quirky and ideal for intimate gatherings. Book well in advance as get booked quickly.

It was a nice evening and the staff were very pleasant and attentive. The sole was good but not outstanding- Ratatouille was good. Cheeseboard had nice cheeses and crackers. Would have preferred potatoes and vegetables to be included as part of the meal rather than add ons and further choices. Think that's why taster menus work so well- no choices to be made! Wines were limited and expensive. Overall a bit overpriced for what is on offer and somehow falls below what I think they want to be.

We prebooked a couple of weeks in advance for dinner for 2 at 8pm. We happened to be in the area early so popped in at 7:15 to ask if our table was ready. They said we could sit at the small bar / waiting area next to the door but otherwise just come back at 8 for our table. We agreed, went to their sister wine bar next door, and came back at 8. They still sat us at the waiting area by the door despite there being a two top table available. It was super cold by the door so they did give us blankets and turned on an extra heater but conversation was difficult as everyone that came in was waiting literally right next to us as we tried to eat. (One of the men that came in and was waiting even helped us with our coats because he was awkwardly standing over us). We ordered a few sharing plates and were told we needed to order mains because the kitchen was closing. We never got refills on our water or wine and spent the meal staring at the open table we had reserved and watching them clean the dishes that were in front of us as the “bar” seating area is in the service area for the wait staff. Disappointing for sure.

This is a gem of a restaurant not far from the centre of town. It sits on the edge of a green with big windows on 2 sides of the dining room loking out. It's relatively small with just a few tables and has an intimate atmousphere. The food we had was off the scale delicious. It's a fish restaurant and the fish is excellent. We also tried the vegetarian starter and main and these were outstanding as well. Everything is presented meticulously and you get the feeling that this is a place where care is taken with every detail from the ambiance, to the quality of ingredients, to the perfection of the cookery and the top notch cocktails and wines.

Although, the food was nice, I would not say it was that special or went beyond expectations, hence 3*. Like mussels were hairy, which can be sometimes, fine, but for the dish I would appreciate if they were cleaned more. Also some of the combinations were a bit overdone as the flavours clashed with each other and each dish would be better on their own. Additionally, I found the glass wine pairing limited, especially since none of them went well, with the dishes we selected. The only exception to the food was the chocolate tart, which was amazing. For my taste the tables are very close to each other and also there are no sun blinds, hence sun may be shining brightly into your face, which can be super unpleasant. What was the best was the service, which was very tentative.

My husband and I had dinner her last night. We chose here as it was a recommendation of Jay Rayners. The food was beautiful we had oysters followed by the cod the cod was exquisite. I had pavlova for dessert which I would highly recommend. We sat at the bar and I'm sure it must be difficult for the owner having to concentrate whilst listening to me chatter and ask questions. However she was lovely and engaging. I will definitely come again when I'm next in Edinburgh.

This was our first visit but it will not be our last A little bistro overlooking Bruntsfield links. Nothing fancy, decor wise, but from the moment we entered, and throughout, we recieved excellent service. An assurance our coats would be nice and dry for us leaving. Then came the food. We had slow cooked brisket and cod with chorizo,. Washed down with some excellent wine. We chose cheese to share, all Scottish, which came with restaurant made beer chutney. A delightful experience. Downstairs there is a private dining space for a party of between six and 10. It looks perfect for that special get together.

We didn’t want a pudding but asked if we could have a drink instead we were told that they needed to get the table set up for the next customers It was 8.15 and the table was needed at 8.45. Very very expensive definitely not worth the money we will not be returning despite living locally

What an experience !! The service is excellent, all the waitresses are so kind, taking the time with you. Also went for a birthday, left a little note to have a candle, and the staff set it really in a lovely way ! (very discreet as well ;) ) Food wise: the wine selection is great, expect 3 bottles of wine you can have on the glass, and the rest is by bottle, I recall between 35-50+£ per bottle. Portions are very good. We had oysters (+ ginger / cucumber dip, suprisingly good !), the halibut crudo + crispy squid. Produce are very fresh, lot of flavour and great presentation ! Sea trout + Cod as main, amazing cooking, the accompaniements were perfect. Miso marshallmallow (great discovery ! :O) + cheese board as dessert. Around 145£ (without tip) for 2 people. Will go again for a special occasion !!

What a find! Greatly executed good with flair and creativity, small menu mostly centred on fish. The halibut crudo entrée was outstanding and the hake with chanterelles mushrooms and new potatoes also comes highly recommended.

A charming place opposite beautiful green space made this one of the best lunch during my Scottish stay. Very highly recommended.

Unfortunately, I can't make an opinion on the food: I made a reservation and got there 5 minutes earlier. We were told the table is not ready yet. That's ok. No problem.

Had a great experience at Leftfield, had made reservations before seeing that they were mentioned in the Michelin Guide (no star yet, but some day?). Cocktails were OK, favabean juice instead of eggwhites for a vegan option is a kind touch, but the drinks were not spectacular. The food however was wonderful. The most tender fried squid to start, and a slow braised brined beef brisket for me and a local sea trout with pea risotto topped with kale for my wife. The flavor of the brisket was almost overwhelming, so packed with deliciousness and the servings were generous. Highly recommend if you are in Edinburgh, though it is about a 15 minute walk from the city center.

Lovely setting and staff, but unfortunately the food and wine were not up to scratch for the prices. £52 cote de Rhone white had a nasty finish. All the dishes were well presented but the roast cod was bland and had no texture - cream, asparagus, soft cod and boiled potatoes made for a sloppy combo. Trout was similarly low on flavour. Hassleback potato was just a jacket potato with some slices on it, though thankfully the parmesan on it actually tasted of something!

The experience was a disaster. We were asked to leave our table after 75 minutes before we had even received our dessert. So disappointing as the food was good. We were expected to finish our meal sat om a stool at a small bar. Apparently the restaurant has a 90 minute policy to vacate your table, which we were told was sent to us by email after booking. We had not received this and were completely unaware. Even so you would expect to be able to complete 3 courses in the time allocated when the restaurant was half full! This spoilt the meal completely and was not handled well by the front of house. My partner burst into tears on leaving. When we were asked to vacate our 2 cover table, the restaurant was half full with 2 free tables and another 4 cover table half occupied. One of these tables we had asked to use on arrival but were told we couldn't. The table we were allocated had a very uncomfortable and unsightly painted plywood bench with cushions. We completed our lunch without taking coffee in 100mins, 10 minutes over their limit. A limit of 2 hrs would be much more suitable. As it is we left without coffee or tip and won't be returning.......

Fresh, succulent mussels, sea trout served over a pea risotto, a few other dishes for a perfect meal. And they smile throughout the meal! It's very small: reserve one of their six tables in advance.

Not great. 2.3/5 Very average gastropub food. Based on other recent reviews it seems that I missed my chance to visit when it was good! To clarify this is not "fine dining" as other reviews have suggested. This is fine, the aim seems to be simple food done well which was my expectations. The good points: The octopus main we had as a starter was tasty and the atmosphere not too loud and not too quiet. The decor fits a slightly more upmarket place for a more special occasion. The not so good: The menu is not that interesting, so I expected it to be done well. The beef brisket was so-so but went cold very quickly and then tasted overcooked (I doubt they warmed the plates). The few vegetables were a let down with the side order of chips fairly tasteless. The wine was not to my taste either. Based on this we decided to skip dessert. The bad: Unfortunately the completely stone faced waitress was not attentive and did not seem to care if we enjoyed the meal or not. The water glasses were dirty and worst of all we were not once asked how the food was! It is a shame because I had been hoping LeftField would become my go-to place to take visitors for a higher end meal. I doubt I will return. Luckily there are plenty of far better and more interesting places nearby (many of which are somewhat cheaper!)

It's difficult to review Leftfield. My wife and I visited with two friends, and everyone apart from me was happy with the food, apart from the portion sizes, which, as is usual with "fine dining", are very small. My problem was that the one vegetarian main was truly awful - basically a slice of underseasoned boiled cabbage, sprinkled with something gritty and sitting on an extremely thin sauce, which was just about impossible to taste. I don't think I'll be back.

I actually hardly ever write reviews but I must. Got lucky and were able to sit at the bar which was perfect as we were able to chat with Andrew and Lola behind the bar. Extremely accommodating and felt very well taken care of. The oysters were so fresh and delicious and we splurged on the hot seafood tower which did not disappoint - quite the opposite. The chef seem to have portioned the seafood out for two people as if he was portioning out for two siblings, identical matches of everything so we didn’t have to fight over every tasty morsel. The prawns, mussels, lobster, baked oysters, everything so fresh and ooh La La so good. The best meal I have had in the UK by far. I couldn’t help but notice the chef with a twinkle in her eye and a giggle from the kitchen only to find out she is one of the owners. Compliments to you and your husband and your beautiful daughter Lola. By the way - Will is a fine lad but isn’t good enough for Lola :)

I only review places I like. This was one of my favorite meals. Warm, friendly environment in an intimate setting with beautiful aesthetic. Gluten friendly food without compromising anything in offerings. Hands down the best meal we had in Edinburgh. Oh, and great wine selection!

We had a fantastic Friday lunch at Leftfield. 👍🏻. The food was superb. Beautifully presented and tasted fabulous. The team here just can’t do enough to make you feel welcome. They made cocktails that were not on the menu but nothing was too much trouble. And the cocktails were perfect. Best Bramble ever! Thank you so much. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing and hope to be back soon.

We had a dinner party, and the course meal was delicious, all dishes were served on time, and the beer recommended by the staff was the best.

Great service in a small restaurant with dishes exceeding all expectations. Went for lunch and it did not disappoint. Great flavours with top end presentation. Cocktails, wine by the glass or bottles, low alcohol beer option, something to please everyone. The mushroom and truffle orzo starter was devine as was the beef shin spring roll, the coley was beautifully cooked as was the pork belly. I realised the walnut whip was greed not need and the ganache encased in Italian meringue nearly finished me off! Thoroughly recommend lunch and will be back to try dinner soon. Great value for top quality dinning.
