The best at Edinburgh and around

Some of the best seafood in Edinburgh.
The seafood is fresh and the specials of the day were wonderful. I ordered the special of the day “Applewood Smoked Cheese Mussels” and they were amazing. I had my birthday this day and mentioned it for the booking and the staff brought me a really nice dessert with a candle for free!
I definitely recommend this place if you want to try good seafood, especially mussels.
- the restaurant lools like a cafeteria, extreme bright lights and cafeteria tables & chair
- presentation of Oysters was just sad.. small oysters, broken shells, no liquid in there and worst served on an stainless steel plate, not nicely on crushed ice.
- mussels were OK, seafood pasta OK.but little seafood in it
- Housewine (sauvignon) just terrible. Very cheap wine sold at premium price
- service needs to improve. Sufficient staff but clearly didnt want to work. Only reactive..
- price for drinks doesnt add up... over priced
Overall feels like a tourist trap.. go to Leith area for some real seafood in a nice ambience
I would say it's a place you must definitely visit, if you like never mind love seafood!
OH BUT PLEASE BOOK AHEAD OF TIME! It gets very busy!
Super clean, super tasty, not super expensive for an excellent city centre restaurant, have been approx 7 times and can't wait to go back ????
Servisw eccellente
In my opinion the food is average, not bad but also not unforgettable.
We had mussels pot, oysters, soup of the day and a seafood platter.
- The mussels pot was good but unfortunately I found a hair in it…
- the oysters tasted fresh but were very slims;
- the seafood platter was good, but for 33pounds I was expecting much more…
Not full we decided to take also two desserts which were delicious and pretty big portion.
I didn’t like the fact that they charged us 8+ pounds for the service when on the menu and on the receipt itself is specified that it’s discretionary.
I didn’t want to complain at the moment in front of other people but this is not fair.
We won’t come back again
Seafood is NOT FRESH.
Service was also appalling, I think sadly now they are getting too popular and are losing their touch with customers.
In particular to the large Philippino manager - Catherine Pena
Par contre, pensez à réserver...
Le restaurant est est bien décoré , lumineux , la carte présente une belle selection des produits de la région , nous y avons très bien déjeuné , les plat sont bien présentés et c'est excellent.
Le problème reste le service dépassé , du monde pas bien organisé . Le temps d'attente est inexplicable , gentil , sorry about that , c'est l'esprit de l'Ecosse .
Pour le poulet grillé et un filet de poisson,,,55 minutes.
Au moment de l'addition , belle réaction de la responsable puisque l'entrée , l'apéro et les cafés ont été offert .
J'y retourne sans problème car nous avons aimés.
