Gewinne einen Einblick in die schottische Küche, immer begleitet mit dem passenden Wein. Kleines, aber feines Lokal mit super-netter und sehr engagierten Bedienung. Auf jeden Fall empfehlen! 👍

The service was amazing but the food really wasn’t great. The steaks were incredibly tough making them almost inedible. Such a shame as we came here a few years ago an it was excellent. Definitely gone downhill massively food wise.

Bella serata, carne eccellente, servizio fantastico, gestito da sole donne anche in cucina. Come in tutti i locali di Edimburgo, il rumore è tanto, ma credo dipenda dai commensali. Prezzo alto, anche se in realtà tutta la Scozia è davvero molto cara

My experience at yesterday was quite disappointing. The "steak" was nothing more than a plain piece of beef, resembling a child's lunch with just meat and fries. What's worse, all the dishes were so small that our group of six had to go elsewhere to find a proper meal afterward.

Thought the Scottidh tasting menue was very interesting with the associsted wines to each dish. Couldn't connect some of the dishes to Scotland but most were a talking point with the attentive staff

Zeer matig en simpel gedineerd voor een hoge prijs.. ik heb een hamburger gegeten die je geen hamburger kon noemen. Een broodje, een smakeloze hamburger en wat kaas. Had op z’n minst wat sla, tomaat etc verwacht. Erg jammer..
