The perfect restaurant to experience a real taste of Italy.
Café Marlayne
76 Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
Both restaurants share the same name, have interchangeable chefs and waiting staff and almost identical menus of gusty, well-flavoured French, no-fuss food with a Scottish twist, but offer quite different atmospheres. The Old Town café is a charming…
The Caves
Niddry Street South,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1NS
Scotland
Great subterranean venue (as the name suggests) getting more and more popular due to its unique atmosphere. See listings for details.
La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
The glow from the twin log-fired ovens is the first indication that pizza is taken seriously at this Leith Walk eatery. La Favorita combines the lightest, crispest bases (also available gluten-free) with a long list of both classic and more inventive…
Fishers in the City
58 Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
This busy, townie sister of the fabulous original at the Shore has gained a great reputation for finesse and atmosphere since it opened in 2001. It's chock-a-block all day (booking is essential), and, in the evening, the shoppers and business lunchers…
Howies
10–14 Victoria Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2HG
This excellent value restaurant chain is now an Edinburgh institution and deservedly so. There are four restaurants, conveniently situated in the four areas of the compass of central Edinburgh. Waterloo Place, in the east, has been recently renovated…
Bonsai
46 West Richmond Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DZ
With the convivial hubbub of the closely packed tables, the sizzling steam and enticing aromas emerging from the kitchen, and the bold white, crimson and black décor, at Bonsai it's easy to imagine yourself in an izakaya in downtown Tokyo. And indeed it…
La Bruschetta
13 Clifton Terrace, Haymarket,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DR
Considering its name, it comes as little surprise that the bruschette at Giovanni Cariello's deceptively modest-looking Haymarket restaurant are something special, the Napoletana balancing the salty tang of anchovies and capers against the sweetness of…
Calistoga
93 St Leonard's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QY
Calistoga is Edinburgh's only dedicated Californian restaurant. It also has its own wine shop, Sideways, in which curious Chardonnay quaffers can take a personally tutored wine tasting before dinner. There is an astounding range of expertly selected…
Candy Bar
113–115 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JN
Aimed squarely at the pretty young things, the Candy Bar really is the cheeky twinkle in the eye of Edinburgh's George Street. There's an air of backstreet chic about the place, with the emphasis on drinking and having a good time rather than eating.
Cruz
The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6QN
Built almost 90 years ago in Greenock, the former steam trawler Ocean Mist moored by the Shore in Leith is a surprisingly venerable setting for the style-infused bar, nightspot and restaurant these days known as Cruz. Round leather booths sit beneath…
Duck's at Le Marché Noir
14 Eyre Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5EP
If you are looking for an intimate dining experience with attentive service and classic, well-executed cooking, Duck's certainly fits the bill. It may be a bit out of the centre for true urbanites but it's certainly worth the walk down that steep hill.
Favorit
19–20 Teviot Place,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QZ
Favorit is a late night diner for the young and hip and – most importantly – for those with the munchies. Black and white chequered tiles, retro tables and benches and a large, red neon Favorit sign set the scene. All that's missing is Pulp Fiction's…
Fenwicks
15 Salisbury Place,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1SL
This neighbourhood restaurant was taken over by new owners just over a year ago and their enthusiasm to please the local clientele really shows. The setting is a split-level, airy, open space with dark panelling and wooden tables. It has a comforting…
La Garrigue
31 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DH
La Garrigue takes its name from the Languedoc region of France and this dictates the style of food and wine on the menu. Warm orange and red-hued paintings from the area line the white wood-panelled walls and are also for sale, and hand-carved chunky…
Home Bistro
41 West Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DB
A number of neighbourhood bistros have popped up around Edinburgh in recent years. The concept is a good one: locally sourced foods in a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Inevitably, some work and some don't, but you would be hard pushed to find any…
Iggs
15 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DR
Now approaching its 20th year, Iggs has become a byword for quality and consistency in Edinburgh's fickle restaurant scene. Where previously the menu meandered from classical Spanish to Scottish fusion, recently it has been reinvigorated by a focus on…
Karen Wong's Chinese Restaurant
107–109 St Leonard's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QY
Slightly off the beaten track, this cute and kitsch wee place is dominated by its eponymous hostess. Whether she is dancing to the 80s power ballad soundtrack (don't worry, the music isn't that loud), or posing for photographs with one of the birthday…
Monteiths
57–61 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SR
Spanking new Monteiths brings a touch of glitz and glamour to this section of the Royal Mile, more commonly associated with pubs and tourist attractions. The entrance is down a vine-arched and lit alleyway next to Moubray House, at the bottom of which…
Restaurant Martin Wishart
54 The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6RA
With its chic, neutral colour scheme, soft carpeting and cream upholstering, Restaurant Martin Wishart wears its Michelin star with Hollywood ease. The food is so mind-alteringly pleasurable, so far removed from mere sustenance that you might forget…
sygn
15 Charlotte Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4QZ
Sygn has been quietly building a reputation for quality since it first appeared in a fuzzy pink glow in 2004. In both style and substance it is the equal of any of the bars on George Street. Subdued lighting, considered décor and plush furnishings set…
All Bar One
29–31 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2PA
Once upon a time, All Bar One was the fresh-faced, exclusive bar-about-town frequented by apple flirtini-sipping suits. While never quite diverting the gastro-pub experts, it did embed the wine bar-diner concept in the nation's consciousness. But the…
Brazilian Sensation
117–119 Buccleuch Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9NG
With an emphasis on good cuisine and familial service, Brazilian Sensation has long set its stall on hearty home-cooked portions and enough originality to appeal to even the most adventurous palette. A well-run family enterprise headed by John and Lucia…
Café Marlayne
7 Old Fishmarket Close, 190 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1RW
Both restaurants share the same name, have interchangeable chefs and waiting staff and almost identical menus of gusty, well-flavoured French, no-fuss food with a Scottish twist, but offer quite different atmospheres. The Old Town café is a charming…
Chez Pierre
18 Eyre Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5EP
Chez Pierre may be a recent addition to Edinburgh's restaurant scene, but the name will be familiar to seasoned Scottish diners. Co-owner and head chef Pierre Levicky was the entrepreneur behind the Pierre Victoire chain, which briefly flourished across…
