Nice lunch if a bit restricted in choice. Fair price for the centre of town during festival time. Service was very good considering there was seven us eating.

Excellent food following local traditions with local ingredients and a creative edge at reasonable prices. Friendly, unobtrusive service. Perfectly located away from the main tourist drags.

Fabulous food. Great Beer. Brilliant atmosphere. Great local Scottish food with a twist. A not to be missed place when in Edinburgh. If you want to keep the cost down it's BYOB too

we experienced very good service and food. We were the only ones there, so a bit quiet. With the set weekend menu the price was very reasonable.

Staff were attentive and food arrived quickly but food was pretty tasteless. Corkage was expensive compared to other BYOB restaurants. Overall not good value for money.

Food was lovely as usual and friendly staff always happy to help. Would highly recommend and love the fact it’s a BYOB as hardly anywhere allows you to take your own wine at weekends! Love this place, hidden gem!

Great venue, lovely welcoming staff. Main course wonderful, disappointing pudding. But rescued by the offer of Dainty Decadence Frozen Dirty Banana - gotta try it!

Lovely food, nice staff and in a lovely part of town. It's a nice relaxed atmosphere too - no-one's rushing you out the door. A good place for a lovely lunch.

The food was amazing, the atmosphere was relaxed and the staff were fabulous . They really made our 9 year old feel welcome. We really enjoyed the whiskey that was recommended. It was especially great to meet the man who painted the Mural.

This restaurant is very well located in the West End and offers a really accessible menu that everyone will like. We enjoyed lovely dishes such as haggis, neeps and fatties, Cullen skink, vegetable Wellington and pan-fried fish. The menu offers something for everyone and picky eaters would do just fine here. Bring a jumper as the restaurant is quite cool.

We visited Ona cold Monday evening but received a very warm welcome. The food was excellent and a very warming Bowmores Tempest whiskey brisked us away.

Good food, well priced and nice ambience. The other benefit is having a great pub upstairs to chill afterwards which does a great selection of real ales

It was quiet but good for talking as I have been before when it was extremely busy and I could hardly hear for the noise. Food choice was good though I found the hake slightly too salty. Apart from that, all was good.

Quite a nice meal - steak , salad, haggis, ice cream. Young friendly servers. Surroundings a bit tired. The basement is fairly dark which could be seen either as cosy or a little claustrophobic.

Food was excellent and on the whole the service was very good. The only minor issue was a long delay after we had finished our desserts. We eventually had to go and find a waitress to tell her that we wanted to order coffees.

We really enjoyed the food, both the variety and the preparation, a nice change from the regular pub food served everywhere. The location was also good for us, close to where we were staying. The beer could have been a bit colder, but we Canadians like it like that, unlike the locals. Thanks for the experience, very enjoyable.

We ate early 6.30 and it was much quieter than previous visits which we liked. It has been very hot in Edinburgh this week and the menu was a little better suited to cold weather but having said that we all found enjoyable choices. Very well prepared imaginative Scottish fare.

Friendly and warm environment with efficient staff. Fascinating mural on the wall featuring famous Scottish faces that entertained our group. Only drawback is it has capacity to get very noisy

This is a favourite restaurant that I frequently use when in Edinburgh, my meal last night (3 people) was up to the usual high standard. Cosy and comfortable setting with friendly service and a good menu with a good drinks choice.

Really pleasant staff, they were very accommodating despite us arriving much later than our initial reservation time. I couldn't fault the food either; top quality yet reasonably priced and the bread basket upon arrival was a great touch. The alcoves at the back of the restaurants are lovely and cosy. The fantastic Teuchtars pub just upstairs is perfect for pre/ after dinner drinks. Very much looking forward to the next visit!

The food was amazing and the service was great - there was a large wedding party in who were clearly having a good celebration and the staff made sure that we were checked on regularly, which was really good. Highly recommended.
