Wow! We are newly listed in the Michelin Guide to Edinburgh. As one of the 30 restaurants listed for Edinburgh we are delighted to be in some very good company! Thanks
‘Honest, intimate and sweet, this is a proper neighbourhood restaurant which focuses on the country's delicious seafood. Straightforward options from Scottish waters kick things off, with fresh mussels and oysters sitting alongside the likes of a zingy crispy squid with gochujang mayo. Comforting and flavoursome main dishes pair well with the homely surroundings, where you can relax with some super views of Bruntsfield Links and The Meadows.’
