The Sunday Roast was really delicious. It was our first time trying it and we loved it. We ordered the one for 2 people and it was plenty of food. The orange pssionfruit juice was also really good. The place is beautiful and the staff is helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

This is probably the only place which I visited more than twice and did so because I liked the service and atmosphere (and probably because it's well within my reach). Cannot comment about the food because I haven't tasted it there yet.

We ate here our first two nights in town. Katie from Georgia was our server and she took great care of us- especially after a long flight from the US. Dinner was excellent. The second night, Katie was not our server but she remembered us and came over to say hello- even asked about our day and remembered our plans. Overall a delightful and delicious experience.

Typical Scottish restaurant located very close to the university campus, although it is not designed for university audiences. The place is spacious and pleasant and the service is good. The menu is not excessively extensive but on Sundays they have the typical roast beef, which is worth trying. The desserts were especially tasty.

A brilliant evening. We were greeted and shown to our reserved table. We had asked for a 'quiet table'. Merek and Katie served us. All needs were anticipated.They both went out of their way to ensure that we had everything. Cod and chips and the Cheese burger were superb! All cooked to a very high standard. The Panzanella salad was delicious, with plenty of goats cheese. All staff were helpful, even getting an extra refill of wine, when we asked a different waitress. Fantastic atmosphere for our laat meal on holiday in Edinburgh. Many thanks!

I found this place on a website as a place with vegan options, but geared toward meat eaters. There weren't a ton of vegan options. I think I tried every vegan dish on the menu. They were all delicious. My dinner guest had fish and loved it. The wait staff was very kind, attentive and wonderful. The space was nice and tucked away from the crowds during the Fringe.

I had booked table 112 for 1.30pm. I arrived about 1.10pm to discover that I could not have that table. The gentleman in charge did not seem aware that a booking had been made. There were various other tables in the garden which were empty so I queried why table 112 was in use.and was told that tables could not be guaranteed. I would accept that if all other tables were occupied. I was then told that there was no table service and I would have to go to the bar for a drink. (This causes me problems as I have a broken right arm and issues with walking.) The gentleman also told me that table service to the garden had stopped about a month previously. I had received garden table service on 10th and 19th July. I felt that the gentleman in charge was not telling me the truth. I also had to stand at the bar waiting to get the bill as he had problems operating the till. I left and my husband went, in my place, the machine would not allow him to tap and I then had to go back to the bar and stand and wait. Compared to my previous 3 visits where I would have highly recommended the experience, I doubt that we will be returning in the near future.

Our group of eight was incredibly disappointed with our recent experience at Salisbury Arms. As the first customers of the afternoon, we anticipated a smooth start to our meal. Unfortunately, this was far from the case. The wait for our food was excessive, stretching over an hour and a half. When the food finally arrived, it was unremarkable, at best. To add insult to injury, our waitress displayed a consistently rude and sarcastic attitude throughout our visit, making for an unpleasant atmosphere for everyone. We were all left feeling extremely dissatisfied with our experience and would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Was planning to eat in garden but smoke from smoker zone was drifting everywhere so ate indoors which looked smart and well maintained. Main of buttermilk chicken burger and fries was OK if a bit oily. Fared better with warm brownie with ice cream. Final bill of £28 (I also had a lime and soda) seemed a bit expensive as I left still feeling hungry as portion sizes were modest.

Terrible welcome, we arrived at 8.30pm without having booked we asked if it was possible to eat, with an annoyed look they told us in monosyllables "kitchen closed" too bad that in the online booking the last table is expected at 9.00pm and the restaurant at 11.00pm . Well done, one of the very few places in Edinburgh where education is not provided. Too bad it had been recommended by friends who are there, or rather they were from home, who apologized for the poor impression.

We booked a table for inside but the weather was glorious so we asked if we could be moved outside and they organised it for us. Which made us super happy. We started off with drinks and then we had pizza. They were sold out of the three cheese and mushrooms pizza but I then chose the Margherita pizza with added mushrooms and bacon . My partner had the Diablo pizza. Normally I only eat one or two slices of pizza but my pizza was so yummy that I ate all except maybe one small piece. We had a brilliant time chatting and drinking and eating. When we left we were thanked by the staff who saw us leaving.

The building itself is beautiful and inside that is plain to see. Excellent decor and thoughtful pieces that add to the warmth of the dining area fantastic beer garden also with heaters and comfy seating. We both has sandwiches as quick bites for a running lunch. They were delicious and a massive portion. My wife couldn't finish hers but all the more for me! Perfectly cooked steak and just the most delicious sauce served along with. Bravo to the kitchen, it was obviously cooked with love. The service is top notch too, not intrusive but very efficient and pleasant. We will be back. Congratulations to the team!

This is a lovely place to go if you'd rather avoid the city centre. It's not any cheaper as a result of its location but the quality and value for money more than mitigated this. Plus you can take your car as there's ample parking. A special mention to the staff, who were all friendly and efficient. The Salisbury Arms is beautifully laid out and the beer garden is one of the prettiest I've been to with comfy seats and several heaters . My only gripe is that the accessible loo is kept locked which means you need to request access unless you have your own key, which thankfully I have. Other than that I really have only positive thoughts.

Closing down on 3/11, Shame to see it go, the last "cheap" venue left in Leith, got to feel sorry for a lot of the old timers, although they'll probably migrate up to The Playfair at The Omni Centre. Certainly opens up a gap in the market in Leith for a pub owner with a bit of business savvy.
