The best restaurants in Scotland

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, with a great variety to choose from. The service was exceptional, especially from our waitress Liz, who was attentive and friendly. The location is also perfect, adding to the overall charm of the dining experience. Highly recommended!

I came here with my partner and a friend for New Years Eve and my gosh - what a treat it was! It was one of the best meals I have had on my travels in Britain so far and one thing that made it even better was our lovely server. She was so friendly, made us all feel so welcome, gave us recommendations for drinks and suggestions of what to do around the city. The cocktails (we had the dirty mango lassi, espresso chaitini, iced chai latte and mango mojito) were all so delicious - whoever made them knows what they are doing for sure! We got a wide selection of foods for dinner including pakoras, curries and street food. All were fantastic - a good amount of spice to not overpower the flavour and presentation was spot on. Edinburgh is an expensive city to visit, but the prices here were not too bad - overall a very good value for money. Would recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh! 10/10!

Incredibly good and generous amount too. We got 2 mixed gyros and halloumi fries, of which we got plenty! They were seasoned gorgeously too. Very filling portions and incredible flavours. Can’t wait to return and would definitely recommend!!

Me and my brother came by for a flight and stopped here for a drink. We had the lost lager and the black heart. Our server, Kira, was lovely and checked in on us multiple times, gave reccomendations and was very knowledgeable. Would highly reccomend for thirsty fliers

Hadn’t been to Jamie’s since moved over a year ago was always my favourite chippy. Went tonight while had the chance and still my favourite chippy. Big portions, crispy batter on everything and friendly service as always. No place better for a supper

Jennifer was great . Offered advice on wine to have with meal and was very attentive and friendly . Lovely place to eat.

Came here for New Year with friends. The food and service were excellent. The music slaps!

Place is nice and big, food was tasty and the chicken shish was well marinated and moist. The 2 course lunch menu was good value. The staff were a bit fussy, whipping the starter plates away when there was still food on them or we were still chewing. Really uncomfortably loud music they play when it's someone's birthday. I get the gimmick but take it down a few notches, a bit of food nearly flew off my fork when I jumped lol...it's good though, enjoyed the meals.

Super stunning cocktails very very tasty very strong very nice really interesting music really interesting things really wish I didn’t take me four or five times to mention the song that I wanted them to play because after four or four times of constantly mentioning that I really wish they’d mention play these songs that they would please play it and after like the four or fifth time I’ve mentioned that they did finally play and I was very happy about that.

First dinner in Edinburgh and certainly the most memorable! Having booked for one person, I was seated in a rather noisy corner next to a table celebrating a birthday, but this first impression quickly faded as the dinner progressed! Firstly, Ankita's service was attentive and full of vitality. Secondly, the food was simply delicious; the paneer makhani was creamy and comforting, accompanied by tasty cheese naans. The hulab jamun dessert was also an excellent discovery, combining hot and cold and the textures of fried doughnuts with ice cream. Weeks later, I can't get that meal out of my head! An address to remember, I wish Scotland wasn't so far away!

My favourite restaurant in Aberdeen. Did an amazing job hosting a small dinner party too!

absolutely amazing place. need to come back for the antipasti and tiramisu!

We recently stayed at the hotel and were extremely disappointed with the service and food standard we received. We ate at the road hole restaurant, which I can only describe from start to finish was shambolic. We ordered the monkfish cheek korma & brown butter pumpkin followed by the scrabster plaice (which I was told after ordering it was sold out but they could offer a crab risotto with sea bream instead) and ribeye steak with bearnaise sauce. The monkfish cheek korma, was certainly not a korma it was a spicy red pepper soup with overcooked monkfish, I only wished I had taken a photo of what the dish looked like at the time however we were there for a birthday celebration and we gave the hotel the benefit of the doubt of one terrible dish. The pumpkin was edible but no frills. Our reservation was at 7pm and after receiving our starters we waited another 1.5hrs for our main course. The wait was definitely not worth it, the crab risotto had a peculiar taste and the sea bream was overcooked, the side of maple glazed heritage carrots were swimming in maple syrup. The bearnaise sauce was quite frankly disgusting, curdled and tasted of oil. The steak was tough and the tomato and mushroom looked like they had been sitting out all day. The service was abysmal no soup spoon, no steak knife and no one asked if we would like another drink during the 1.5hr wait for our main course, we had to flag down a waitress even for a water refill. We left with both main courses untouched and when we returned to our room there was a notice left on our bed pre warning us there is going to be another shambles at breakfast in the morning. So We decided to leave the hotel and go to the Rusacks for breakfast which we throughly enjoyed and would highly recommend and we’re glad we made that decision even though breakfast at the old course was included in our rate as the reception desk on check out was full of guests complaining again of the service and standard of food received at breakfast. The old course hotel was bitterly disappointing, 5 star prices but substandard rooms, very dated, poor service and the food was terrible. The spa was nice but I would suggest staying and eating elsewhere and pay the £40 spa fee if you would like to visit.

Great pint with ice cold glass, can't go wrong there 🍺🥃

Ka Pao is my happy place. I'm coeliac, and can have pretty much anything on the menu. They're so on the ball with gluten free options! Every dish is a taste sensation - I would eat there every day if I could!
