   Absolutely awful, poor service and very poor food, we did complain and got a substantial amount off our bill. We were recommended to go there by Amex Experiences and we also took along a couple visiting Edinburgh for the first time, the lady works for Amex. This was a complete embarrassment and we will never return.

   Very good little spot for a decent steak in Edinburgh. The starters are all amazing.

   For such a renowned steakhouse the meal was just ok. The food was good, the steak cooked a little beyond medium rare and all the apps & sides were ok. The wine list, in my opinion, was weak and a little overpriced. The service, again, was just ok. Nothing terrible but it fell short of what a fine steakhouse should be. Sorry to say, the value was just not there.

    We had booked for a table for 2 at 4:30pm but were early & they seated us on arrival. We were looking forward to having a Sunday roast to be told when we went to order that sadly they had ran out of the roast & sides. Our server then advised that we could pick a cut of steak of our choice & that they would cover the cost of our choice of sauce & sides. It honestly was so lovely, every server we had was more than helpful & it was overall a lovely experience. Thank you so much!
