   Just all too ordinary. Except for the prices. Felt like an OK (All Bar One) pub chain experience. But at (Balmoral number one) posh restaurant prices. £60 + for a bottle house/ordinary red. Really?

   Been to various Hawksmoor’s over the years and I think this one gave the best overall experience. Food, service, building, atmosphere all worked brilliantly well. And John the guy who looked after us was fantastic. A 22 year old chap with so much passion, ambition, confident but not arrogant and held great conversation. Please ensure this gets back to John. We will definitely be back!

   Really enjoyed the food. Steaks and bone marrow were perfect (even the toddler enjoyed it); lobster was a bit overcooked but still very flavoursome. Service was excellent - a few missed items that were very quickly served once highlighted.

   Sunday roast was outstanding! Our waiter and bartender were both tremendous too - the bartender explained every aspect of Edinburgh gin (we asked) and was so knowledgeable. Our waiter was funny and totally engaging. We loved our roast and the desserts too, especially the tiramisu. Thank you for an awesome Scottish experience!
