The Cellar Door in Edinburgh, City of

Absolute gem of a restaurant. We had the taster menu plus wine and was it worth it! A culinary delight of flavours. The staff were so accommodating. I cannot recommend this place enough. Wonderful x

Beautiful restaurant and atmosphere. The waitress was very friendly and took good care of us! Thank you so much!

Had the taster menu , I can't effuse enough about the service , wine and food . One of the best dining experiences I've ever had and I've had a good few. Each course was a taste sensation and the accompanying wine perfectly matched the course . At one point I realized I must have only ever used 25 per cent of my taste buds as the flood of taste and texture made me feel like quite the amateur but after made me feel like an epicure . If you can do it , do it , you won't regret it

All the food was fantastic, our server went above and beyond- even charging my cellphone for me- and giving great recommendations. Definitely pricey but worth it!

The owner of this restaurant can't take criticism and instead resorts to calling their patrons fake. I don't see the need to spend my time or mental energy reliving a poor experience to write a review for a place I didn't like. But because of a thin skinned owner, who probably shouldn't be in the restaurant business bc they don't have a constitution to handle any kind of negative review has insulted my integrity. I do not tolerate bullies and will always stand-up for myself. Apparently the owner doesn't understand how reviewing works bc you don't have to create a review immediately. Also just bc reviewed 8 places today doesn't mean they were all restaurants. They all deserved the 1 or 2 rating and the owners rude reply is evidence of why the restaurant earned the low rating. Now even if they were all restaurants why are you trying to shame me for the volume of food I eat, I like going to restaurants and eating food, this especially coming from a restaurant that claims they are accepting of all patron's food requirements. Due to your response I'm updating my review appropriately to the star rating you deserve. The food was nothing special, it was presented with some thought but that also was dependant on the dish, some where put together ok, others looked like it was just tossed into the bowl. Given the price being asked, I'm expecting a bit more effort. The service was friendly but at best it was haphazard, at worst careless. The atmosphere, well I'll let my audience be the judge. I found myself in a semi basement that you tried your best to make it look nice but that doesn't mean that the "view" isn't a back alley and some emergency fire stairs. They are also on top of a rowdy bar where you can hear all the drunken ruckus, such great ambiance!😝

First class dining expiriece. Its a must visit restaurant.

In Scotland to celebrate our anniversary and stumbled upon The Cellar Door! So glad we did! Great service and wonderful food!!!! We had the Edinburg Elderberry cordial….never tried something like that before, going to look for it back in the states. Steak was delicious but the Sticky Toffee Pudding is a must have😁😋

We have been to this restaurant a few times. The food was always very good and the service was courteous.

Unfortunately not a great experience. Food was awful, No taste to anything. Spiced potatoes tasted like they had been reheated and couldn’t be eaten. I actually left most of the food, the broccoli was simply boiled with no flavour. My husband couldn’t eat his chips they were so bad.

This is a little gem. Lovely food, very Scottish focused which we loved. Prompt service. Tables are close together which is cosy but there is enough space. Menu is small but there is enough choice.

Very good cuisine and warm atmosphere.

Good food. We had regular a la cart menu, portion a bit too small for the price. The location is quite small as well so it gets very crowded and noisy. Hard to have a conversation with the people on your table. Need to book in advance.

The space is nice and comfortable, and the staff is kind, though not particularly knowledgeable. The vegan option they highlighted on the menu was initially served with non-vegan cheese and possibly non-vegan bread. When we brought this to their attention, they remade the salad but simply removed the non-vegan ingredients without adding any replacements—it ended up being just a tomato and arugula salad. Despite the reduced ingredients, we were still charged the same price. Unfortunately, there were no other vegan options on the menu. Overall, not a great choice for vegans and very expensive considering the ingredients and portions.

One of the best restaurants where I have eaten in Edinburgh, attentive staff and accommodating with allergies I recommend

Lite av en turistfälla. Slitet och högljutt. Maten bara ok och dyr. Åt hjorthamburgare för nästan 20£. Trevlig betjäning dock. Bra centralt läge

Great food and environment! Servers were really nice but the food took some time to arrive and we only got the butter for the steak a bit after we got food itself, would still go back to try out some different dishes!

We noticed this restaurant when walking by sightseeing it caught our eye so we made a reservation. We’re so glad we did, we had a nice dining experience. Food was delicious, staff was wonderful! Highly recommend!

Service was mediocre, for example, the menus took so long to come that I had to go the service counter to ask, a knife fell onto the floor and the server picked it up and placed it back on our table (thanks, but do you think we wanted to use it after it fell on the floor?), desserts were asked for at least 3 times, but they never arrived, however they were on the bill when it came time to pay. Food was average; haggis was like a deep fried samosa, salmon mousse was so-so, and the venison was tough. It's a very casual place, and overall I can't recommend this restaurant.

The food was very good and staff very nice but the table we had was really small and close to the wall and other table so the experience was not as good as in could be

I don't usually write reviews, but this beautiful restaurant has inspired me. The food is very good and well presented. The staff is very kind and careful. You have made beautiful our last evening in Scotland despite the rain! Thank you!

This is the most amazing tasting menu in Edinburgh— I’m not sure how this restaurant continues to fly under the radar, but I’m glad because if everyone knew how good it was, I’d never have been able to get in!

Wanted to give my American friends a taster of Scottish food, booked this last minute as was local to a bar we were drinking in. So pleased we did. What a gem! Food was spot on and delicious, we went with the Scottish tasting experience 6 course meal, hugely recommended, presentation amazing, flavours delicious and service from the staff top class. Highly recommended ***

We were a group of 10 people who ate here to celebrate completing our bachelor's degree. We went here to get a taste of Scotland before we all travel abroad, and the cellar room really delivered what we wanted. Dishes such as haggis and Port belly were served in an innovative way. All the flavors harmonize in a way that almost made me a little emotional. The starter I chose was the Haggis Parcel, it was absolutely delicious, a different way of preparing haggis to what I have had before. For the main course I had the Ayrshire Pork Belly, an outstanding dish. The meat was seasoned well and it had some kind of apple sauce on the side which made all the flavors fall into place. And the mashed potatoes were absolutely fantastic. This is probably the best dish I have ever been served from a restaurant. The atmosphere and atmosphere in the restaurant was outstanding and our waiter was fantastic. She made us feel taken care of and provided us with what we needed. The venue was lovely and gave a warm and cosy, homely atmosphere. The portions were quite large, so you got good and full, while you wished you could eat forever because it tasted so good. I wouldn't recommend the Ribeye steak unless you love steak, but that's because there wasn't anything really special about it, because it's something you can get in most other places, while the other dishes were really something for themselves. This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem that must be visited during your trip to Edinburgh if you want to experience some culture.

The drink pairings and service made our experience good. We had the 6 course tasting menu and the food was good but not memorable. However a few of the wines that were paired were extremely well picked and delicious. Our service was quick and impeccable.

We recommend the tasting menu with he b drink menu. Made our night!

We stumbled upon this gem after touring the castle and did the taste of Scotland 6 course meal with drink pairing and the entire meal was fantastic! The service was amazing and we even had a serenade from a chorus that was visiting. 100% would recommend if you are in Edinburgh.

Terrific food and service in a charming atmosphere. Thank you!

The most amazing experience. Food was absolutely fabulous, service was terrific & the place really funky & cool. My first time, but ever back in Edinburgh I will come back 😎😝

Fantastic taste of Scotland and perfect service. Will definitely recommend and come back. Thanks for the lovely evening!

Great service. Nice food. Reasonable prices

The tasting menu is overpriced. It looked good, but nothing was memorable. It could be due to the quality of ingredients or preparations stored in the fridge. To me, it felt like someone had thrown things together without individually prepping them and making sure they work together. The Venison was dry and served with a disastrous cottage pie in a tartlet. The salmon mousse was fridge cold and the tattie scone stale, but the pickle on top was fantastic. Everything was small (which is fine since it's a tasting menu), except for the dessert that felt like half a litre of lemon double cream (delicious but way too much). The atmosphere is chaotic, it's a mix between a cozy Scottish restaurant and a dilapidated cafe. Tables are sticky and wobbly, paint peeling off in places. It is not well-maintained and gives off fancy vibes, but it isn't. Lovely service and delicious haggis starter. However, this is not enough to make me want to come back. After years of having wanted to eat there, I literally forgot about it immediately after leaving.

The tasting menu is very good value for money!

My wife and I struggled to remember exactly when we had last visited this wonderful restaurant as we don’t often travel from the south east of England, but this was as an amazing experience. They offered a hugely tempting six-course taster menu (which included a full vegetarian/vegan option) but we opted for haggis roll and vegetarian haggis to start; venison and sea trout main courses; and we both elected to have the cheeseboard to finish. The food was simply delicious and beautifully presented, and the staff were warm and attentive, without ever making us feel rushed. I would wholly recommend booking a table for a special dining experience.

We visited here for a special birthday as a group of three friends and had an absolutely brilliant evening. The atmosphere was warm and personal and the service was excellent-the servers were efficient and friendly and answered any questions we had. The food was amazing-we had the celeriac and fennel soup, the haggis samosa and vegetarian haggis spring rolls-all of which were delicious and the venison and trout for mains were outstanding. The lemon posset and cheese selection were also really good but the sticky toffee pudding was the best I’d ever had! We were so impressed with the food and the friendliness and efficiency of the staff matched the quality of the food too. We also really enjoyed their special cocktails! Would definitely recommend a trip here!

Fantastic experience. The food was excellent, the special cocktails were delicious, and the service was second-to-none. Great atmosphere.

It needs a TierraAstur next to it to complete. Plus there is a Chinese man defecating

Location and food are really good, but the best part of the dinner has been the waitress Piera, such an amazing professional.

The tasting menu and wine pairing was fantastic and service was brilliant!

We went to this typical Scottish restaurant intrigued by the positive reviews, upon our arrival we found a very kind Italian waitress who helped us choose the dishes. The venison is delicious and the trout is also excellent, not to mention the desserts. Truly a positive experience. If you are in Edinburgh don't miss this place!

The restaurant is located in the basement, the wifi was good, and the food was quite delicious. However, the service was more of a habitual move, and it kept coming and going as if they were trying to quickly vacate my table. And it was too expensive compared to the quality of the food. The price was expensive, but there was also a (reasonable) service charge, so I was quite disappointed.

Table reserved for 6. Seated on a table of 4... we were stuck closely to the people seated behind us. The food is really basic and expensive for what it is...30€ a piece of meat for a small quantity.

Restaurant found by chance, but what joy! Excellent meal, everything was very well cooked and delicious. Perfect servers, fast, pleasant and smiling. A very nice address

Vanwege de reviews hier gereserveerd. Was in begin rond 1900 u erg rustig. Vriendelijk ontvangen. Gekozen voor 6 gangen menu. Grote variatie, goede smaken, redelijke porties. Daarna nog een kaasplankje met lekker kazen en goed kopje koffie na. Voor ons een goede ervaring voor grote eters kan het wel wat tegenvallen gezien de redelijke porties.

Really excellent little place! We came for an early dinner with an 8-year-old. Food was great for grown-ups and kiddo. Special shout-out to the haggis parcel (which is parceled in a sort of crispy wonton shell - really nice.)

Nice staff and location, food so so. I asked for the beetroot salad and the rib eye, both of them were good, but nothing espectacular. Because of the lasts reviews we expected more.

Uninspired menu - overpriced - £5 for a bottle of water? £18 for a slab of undercooked cauliflower? Toilets in an appalling condition - needs upgrading.

I went to The Cellar Door on 09/12/2023 at 16:45, as our friend had booked a table for a Christmas meal. We arrived around 10 minutes early and could locate nobody on the first floor, however we did see a sign saying the restaurant was downstairs and to make our way there which we proceeded to do. We found nobody downstairs and then proceeded to go back upstairs, one thing we did note were the steel stairs were extremely slippy it was almost like an ice rink.. When coming back upstairs we were met by some staff who informed us that the steps had just been mopped and then proceeded to take us back downstairs, unfortunately on the way down I lost my footing on the steps due to how slippy they were and proceeded to fall on my back and shoulder down the last 5 steps. Whilst I was able to get back up, no effort was made to rectify the situation with the steps until I complained to a member of staff and advised them they should have dried them at which point a member of staff did this. Nobody checked on me afterwards, and whilst the meal was great and the service once we sat at the table was good the entire experience was spoiled by this accident which could have been avoided had considerable care been taken by the staff to dry the steel steps after they had been mopped. Unfortunately this also led me to miss my theatre trip as I've had to go to A&E!

What a great find! Food was absolutely delicious. We had the tasting menu which was some of the best food I’ve had in a long time. Service was excellent, and the restaurant feels really friendly and cozy

Experiência a nunca mais repetir! Antes de sentar, já estavam a marcar hora para sairmos. O prato era literalmente, uma couve flor, mesmo só couve flor, inacreditável. Mesmo este ainda não ter sido servido recusaram trocar o prato. A quantidade de comida dos restantes pratos era miserável. Fujam deste restaurante!

Great tasting menu, superb atmosphere and excellent service. The Scottish Tasting menu really was fabulous. I had the G/F version while my husband had the regular Tasting Menu. Both were delicious, beautifully presented and an absolute treat to the tastebuds. The Venison dish was perfection and probably my favorite course although it's a tough call.

Fantastic restaurant. The 6 course tastes of Scotland was incredible! Staff were excellent, professional, knowledgeable but friendly and welcoming. Couldn't reccomend highly enough

Lovely food, great service. Busy but not rushed.

Everything was brilliant. We had a very nice server and the food was very good

Had a great meal from the set menu. Good selection 3 courses for good value and quality was excellent. The Haggis parcel was delicious and the Venison main was cooked perfectly. Service was attentive and just right. All round great experience.

What a fantastic restaurant. We had the taste of Scotland taster menu paired with wine and it was an absolute treat. Lovely friendly staff, lovely owner, who some how new loved limoncello. Very worth whole experience. It's not often you sit for. 2 hr meal and surprised it went that quick. Awesome, fabulous, going again.

The food on the menu didn't match Google, and the prices on the menu didn't match the bill (they charged us more). Ordered a drink and they only filled up the glass 2/3 way. Food tasted average and the service was bad. Would not recommend.

They did not have our reservation listed even though I booked through their preferred app. We were able to get a table anyway. Menu and pictures listed here on Google are not necessarily the menu that is offered. My wife was looking forward to a burger but that was not on the menu. Those menus and images should be taken down. Food was ok, but not worth the price for the portion sizes or quality. This should be listed here as a more expensive restaurant, as we were not expecting to spend that much. Our waitress was very odd and difficult to understand, and kept hovering over my wife's shoulder and making us uncomfortable. We sat on the platform under the arch and it was noticeably dirty. Would not recommend this place.

Åt 3-rätters med Haggis som förrätt och hjort som huvudrätt.Maten var bra men bäst av allt var servicen ,vi var ett sällskap på 9 vuxna och ett barn på 7 månader och fick en fantastisk fin service ! Rekommenderas !

This restaurant was our first impression of Scottish culinary. And we were completely flabbergasted by that venue. Served by a friendly team we had absolutely great dishes. Can only recommend it and we'll surely remember that dinner at The Cellar Door.

Firade födelsedagen här med hela familjen ,vi var nio vuxna och ett barn på sju månader.Åt tre rätters menyn med Haggis som förrätt och hjort som huvudrätt,maten var väldigt bra men det bästa var servicen.Mycket trevlig och serviceinriktad personal ! Rekommenderas

Siamo stati in questo incantevole ristorante per cena, ad accoglierci abbiamo trovato Piera, una ragazza italiana super gentile che ci ha seguito durante il pasto. Oltre a lei il resto del personale è gentilissimo e simpatico. Il locale curato nei dettagli ed è piacevole mangiarci. Ma veniamo al dunque, noi abbiamo provato il menù degustazione che prevede sei portate che vanno da antipasti al dolce, si può abbinare inoltre ad un percorso vini. I piatti presentati in maniera elegante e cucinati con un tocco moderno hanno sempre qualche ingrediente importante della cucina scozzese, come Haggis, carne di cervo, salmone o Lemon Curd. A noi il percorso è piaciuto molto e pensiamo si addica perfettamente per il turista che vuole provare alcuni degli ingredienti più apprezzati della cucina scozzese. Assolutamente un ottimo ristorante dove passare una cena piacevole e assaggiare un po di Scozia!!

Great food and nice atmosphere. Would come again

We had the tasting menu and found it to be underwhelming, particularly for the price. The food was average, as an example, one of the dishes consisted of raw tomatoes with balsamic vinegar and some dip. The atmosphere was lacking and we were still hungry after the meal. However, no problems with the service, the waiting staff were attentive and friendly.

This restaurant is literally in a cellar, hence the name, and looks nothing like the photos. It's tiny, and the bathroom is practically in the room, which is awkward. The lighting was way too bright which made the atmosphere sterile. The food was ok, and they had several vegan options for me, but it was not good enough to make up for the lack of atmosphere. I would skip this place in the future and eat elsewhere.

Service was excellent. Atmosphere was a bit dungeon-like. Unfortunately, the steak and venison were both tough. Desserts were very good.

Last time I was in Edinburgh, I ended up eating in the Cellar Door by chance. I remembered it as a nice location with friendly staff and good food. This time we booked it in advance and it was better than I remember. The only issue was that an earlier table had arrived very late and so our table wasn't ready. I can't blame the restaurant for that and the staff handled it very well. I had a smoked salmon mousse starter, a venison main and sticky toffee pudding. The starter was good, but not exceptional. The venison was probably the best venison I have had anywhere and the pudding was close to perfect. To drink we had a bottle of Amarone, which was really good. I don't remember anything specific about the service, but I have a general impression of the staff being very helpful and everything appearing very inefficient. I really can't find anything to fault and I would happily recommend the cellar door to anyone.

Too expensive for the quality and quantity of the meal. Slow service between dishes. Disappointing.

Considering the price and tastes it was below expectations. Staff was friendly and atmosphere inviting but meal took too long between courses for underwhelming deliveries.

Loud dining room with loud noice of bottles from the bar. We ate the Scottish tasting menu with meat. The food was decent until the Tomato slad before the main course. That tomato salad had not much flavor with a simle sour cream sauce. The main course had no taste, salt and pepper needed to be added. None of the wine and drink pairings fit with the foods, but there were some that could have been switched up and would had fit better. Last comment (but first shock) … we were seated next to people’s feet… see picture…

The Cellar Door was a magnificent experience. From the friendly service, to the atmosphere, and the incredible food, I can not recommend this restaurant enough. My partner and I did the six course menu with wine pairings, he got the vegetarian menu and I got the regular menu (so we could share and try as much as we could).l (also, we forgot to take a picture of one course). It’s hard to pick a favorite dish because each one was delicious. I’ve had plenty of great dining experiences but this one easily ranks as one of the best (not just in Scotland—anywhere). I cannot recommend the Cellar Door enough. Make sure you check this spot out!

Booked here for a pre-Tattoo show. Already did our homework before visit so knew we wanted the tasting menu with wine experience. We were really looking forward to the dishes. Initial Reception by staff was good. Friendly. We had been placed right in front of the bar and we were in the sweet spot for staff to see immediately the moment we had put our cutlery down and the slates would be immediately whipped away from under us. We were receiving next courses and wine before we had finished the last course wine. There was no break and it began to feel uncomfortable and we were also in the rat run for staff thundering past with other diners food. We asked to be moved. Which was better. The food was hugely disappointing. Looked ok, but just didn’t deliver on taste. The potato purée under the haggis parcel was cold…it could have well meant to be, but it was awful. The hot and cold smoked salmon mousse seemed nothing like a mousse and was very watery. The tomato dish was made to sound way more than it actually was. The biggest disappointment had to be the venison. Again looked great and may well have been if it had been at least warm. When we told the waitress we were told it was supposed to be like that…….the lemon posset was, well, lemon posset! Wines were ok although the dessert wine was undrinkable and was left. We just walked away feeling ripped off for £159. We did tell the staff during and after but they seemed completely non plussed. We had much much better for a lot less the following night, so would not recommend this establishment.

My father and I walked past this place looking for somewhere to grab dinner at 8:00 on a Friday night with no reservation, an almost impossible task. Having found the original place we had our sights on rammed, we decided to give this place a try, in the end a much better outcome. Having turned up, we were given the literal last table available. Despite the business, the food was still great, venison haunch followed by sticky toffee pudding was well cooked and tasty. A lovely find.

We saw this place when walking to another restaurant that turned out to be full. We doubled back and got the last table for two, and we’re delighted that we did. This is an intimate, atmospheric modern Scottish restaurant with a hard-working team serving well-known dishes with a Scottish twist. We both had the venison haunch, which was delicious, followed by one sticky toffee pudding and a lemon posset - both lovely. Serendipity is a wonderful thing.

The Cellar Door is truly a taste of Scotland, located in the heart of Edinburgh. The restaurant is beautiful, the staff were all very welcoming and the food was incredible! Especially hearing that the venison was locally sourced, we had to try it and it was 10/10. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a great dining experience, thank you so much!

Locale trovato casualmente nel centro di Edimburgo. Cibo molto buono (la carne di cervo molto tenera) e servizio eccellente. In particolare, Piera e Naima sono state gentilissime ed attente alle nostre esigenze. Brave ragazze, continuate cosi ❤️

Impeccable dining experience! The service was top notch, and we were even given a complimentary glass of Prosecco for a reservation mishap. Service was very efficient and friendly. They offer plenty of vegetarian options. The food was absolutely delicious!!

We went there as 10 tourists with old and young, enjoyed a nice Scottish dinner with good food!

Lekkernijen voorbelasting wat wils

在地下樓的餐廳。氣氛很溫馨。燉飯很好吃。魚排很鮮美，牛排鮮嫩多汁。

Lovely staff, delicious food and cosy atmosphere. Fantastic location. The venison was perfectly cooked and pickled carrots were excellent!

We enjoyed our first meal in Scotland here and were pleased. The location is great and the service was quick and pleasant. The food was warm and well thought out. We had a great time.

Excellent food, service and ambiance. We had the tasting menu with matching wine. All of us enjoyed it... even those not sure about haggis! Not cheap but worth it for a treat.

Tipici piatti scozzesi cucinati con cura , ampia selezione di birre e vini ma il tocco in più lo danno le due ragazze italiane estremamente simpatiche pronte a suggerirvi e descrivervi le pietanze.

Kinda cool ambiance but the food and service didn’t make up for it. Got the meat Taste of Scotland Prix Fixe menu. The stand-out was the crisp haggis (really well done with a combination of texture and rich flavors). The steak was bland, the heirloom tomatoes were acceptable. The service was the main detractor. Other tables came in after us but got their last courses before we had gotten our mains (and we had been waiting on the Heirloom tomatoes, which shouldn’t have taken a long time to cut…)

Захотілось відвідати шотландської кухні, тому обрали цей ресторан 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Він знаходить в центрі , красива вивіска , вишукана атмосфера всередині. Нас зустріла офіціант Люба і розповіла коротку історію про блюда та алкоголь , який можна поєднати з цими блюдами . Зупинились на страві з оленятини і не пожалкували . Нажаль були голодні , тому не сфотографували 😅Чудово поєдналось з крафтовим пивом . Дякуємо за атмосферу і завітаємо ще раз на комплексний обід з повним комплексом страв 🌎

Was very excited for the 6 course tasting menu and loved that there were drinks paired with it! Will happily come here again and I recommend it to friends too!

Excellent food! This was my favorite stop in Edinburgh and I feel lucky that we got to eat here. The bread was soft and the butter tasty, the tomatoes were the best and the fish I had was buttery soft! The servers were really attentive and polite. Definitely recommend and would come back.

Ce restaurant mérite sa deuxième place sur Trip advisor. La cuisine Écossaise est excellente. Le service super. Il y a beaucoup de bruit, mais cela nous a arrangé car nous avons deux enfants bruyant. 😄

High expectations following its TA rating. The service was good but the food average. My venison was a little tough and sinewy. Prices ok however £4.95 for a bottle of water is OTT. Our table was next to the upper level so our eye level...

Brilliant. Went here on our 3rd night in Edinburgh thank goodness we found it. What a gem. The food was delicious and the service was 1st class and for Edinburgh the prices were fine. For £123 we got 3 courses, 1 cocktail, 2 beers and...

Eigenlijk een v d betere mazltijdervaringen van onze 5 daagse trip. Druk en wel redelijk luid in die kelder. Maar...

Fantastic meal and excellent service! Was looking for gluten free dinner options and found a couple menu items: ribeye or venison. I asked for the ribeye, but with the venison presentation (potatoes, carrot puree, etc.) It was SO good!! I normally don't ask for substitutions,...

The editors of the trade magazines who listed this restaurant among the best in Edinburgh are criminals. For the modest sum of £ 404.- for four people we ordered a tasting menu ( with added cheese) that is a joke in bad taste. Portions insignificant both qualitatively and quantitatively, pate miserable, salmon cream less than homemade ( served on pan cakes that looked like the galettes I ate during my military service), two badly cut tomatoes on top of a cheese mousse ( served in a glass bowl), the meat as well as the haggis were saved. The dessert was of tremendous acidity, where the lemon concentrate destroyed the balance of the cream. The room is noisy (forget quiet dining) the table was sticky and wobbly as well. The only positive notes were the ladies on duty and the wine, which while not renowned was good.

We decided to go here for a nice meal on the last night of our holiday. We decided to do the tasting menu, which wasn’t cheap, but as a treat. We were sat close by to the till for the staff members and entrance to the kitchen, which was absolutely fine until two of the members of staff began to argue, not very subtly, and more than once, which became very awkward to be facing them and at such a close proximity. Sitting here meant we were also subject to the apparent chaotic nature of the service. We were moved to a different table half way through the meal, which was not a problem at all as the waitress was very polite about it, and offered a free drink, and meant we were a bit further away from the chaos. When we received the bill, we were charged for the drink so I asked the other waitress if she could take it off the bill; this was met with hostility and quite an abrupt response from the other waitress. The food was brought out very slowly after we were about half way through, and when we were moved to a different table to accommodate for another table of 6, it felt like we had been forgotten about. When the dessert came out, it appeared and tasted to have melted and been left for a while. It appeared that some of the members of staff were aware of the poor experience, and one continued to apologise. This honesty and friendliness of two of the waitresses made our experience better. It was the abruptness of some of the members of staff, some of whom were arguing in front of us, disorganised atmosphere which meant it was difficult to relax for an expensive meal, and feeling you had been forgotten, that means that it was sadly not the most enjoyable meal. I would never want to leave a bad review for a company, and can only imagine how good it could be had we gone there on a good day, I think we were just unfortunate.

Delicious Scottish cuisine! Really enjoyed the preset Scottish menu option. Good drink selections and great service!

Very nice authentic Scottish restaurant. The service was perfect and the waitress was so sweet with our little baby. Even the owner stopped by our table for a wee chat. Everyone was very welcoming and the food was incredibly good!
