The best restaurants in Scotland

Great food and friendly, helpful staff. Never disappoints!!

Lovely fresh prepared food with ample portions Food was so tasty.

Why did it take me so long to come here? Food! Service and atmosphere all on point! Very enjoyable night! Can’t wait to come back and work our way through the menu!! Great job!

We had the best experience here! Cozy atmosphere, incredibly friendly and helpful staff and great food. Our dogs were absolutely pampered with treats, and we very much enjoyed our toasties and soup!

My wife and I shared the vegetarian mezze and I also had the starter chicken kofte. Every single dish was flavorful and perfectly spiced. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Excellent family time. The dishes are very good and the portions generous. The service is extremely helpful and cheerful. It's worth taking a few steps away from the central street. In addition there is parking

I got to stay in a castle!! Crossbasket Castle was all I wanted to be and more! The pictures will show just how incredible this place is. And yes, Crossbasket, you can use my photos for your marketing. :) Lauren and Holly at the front desk, thank you for all your assistance in making the stay so spectacular! And Piper and Sabi at the bar, wonderful conversation and amazing drinks. The entire stay was a highlight of the trip!!

Have been going to this resturant regularly for nearly 10 years. Always giving it a 5 star rating. Last night for my wife’s birthday we visited again expecting our usual high standards. Firstly, the food was excellent as normal, no issues there at all. But for some strange reason our engagement with the staff including the owner was very “flat and low energy”. We waited 40 minutes for our first course to be delivered , Arancini and Mozarella Fritta …. No one explained why the wait was so long. Apart from asking for our order and delivering the food there was NO attempt to engage in conversation with us…. A mile away from the experience when Marisa was front of house in the early days. This was the first time in ten years going to Gigi’s that I haven’t left a tip. Your food is excellent, you need to refocus your standards of service as your prices are now at “ Edinburgh” levels… so the experience needs to be top notch. Also an increase in Veggie pasta options would be a good idea both for the customers and your profit line. Hope to come back and also hear some more good reviews. Disappointed local and big advocate of Gigi’s Bonnyrigg.

Cené y pedí el pho con carne de res en rodajas cocida y albóndigas, así como el rollo de verano. El caldo pho no era tan fuerte como estoy acostumbrado, pero era agradable. El rollo de verano era bueno también. El servicio fue amable y rápido.

Been in here before for drinks but had food for the first time today. Opted for the steak pie, it was outstanding. Nice atmosphere and the staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely go back here again to eat.

Great food and service. Really nice restaurant and great value for money, world highly recommend it. We had pizza, pasta and the bongiorno, all great.

We ended up in the Table de Hote part of the building which is split in 2. One side very expensive, limited choice. We were with a 6 year old, which should have been an indication that we were in the wrong side.... Other part of establishment would have been much better for us. Bespoke burgers, all the trimmings and a free drink....FFS. Much better value. We spent over £200 for 4 adults and 1 child. Make sure you book the right part of the establishment.... One kitchen serving 2 different restaurants, felt like we had been ripped off....the owner could have advised us better.

Incredible food, flavours and service. Spot on

Music was a little loud for normal volume conversations, decent cake selection and nice savoury food too. Definitely be back .

Had a delicious meal here outside in the garden under the tent. The meal was delicious and Erica and her staff were very warm, welcoming and friendly. It was lovely to meet Rory who is a regular who props up the bar and apparently is more into food than pints. Will definitely go there again some time to try some of the other delicious dishes on the menu. Thanks Erica (and Rory :-). Best wishes, Dianne
