    I was very disappointed with the service at this restaurant, especially considering its high rating. We ordered three sharings and beers first, followed by the main dishes. However, the waiter completely forgot our sharing order and brought out the main dishes first. To make matters worse, the sharings were only served at the end, without so much as an apology. This kind of inattentive service and lack of professionalism is unacceptable for a restaurant of this caliber. It overshadowed the experience, and I hope the management addresses such issues to maintain their reputation.

    This was a great find. If you like whisky, this is a place for you. Great selection and a choice of different whisky's selections to try. Both the Haggis neeps and tatties and Scottish Salmon were both amazing.

    Really happy we pre-booked this spot, it is very close to Royal Mile but away from crowds. Food and service was of excellent quality, great ambiance and... bonus they have a great kids menu. I'll wholeheartedly recommend this to friends!
