Reviews
"Following Michelin’s guide, this restaurant is situated at the top of Calton hill. The view is magnificent. I only tried their starters and dessert. Crab tart is alright and its chocolate is nice but all the portions, I think, are too small. I haven’t tried main courses which is quite too pricey. The menu might change now so you can double check it."
"Solid experience. Went here for lunch from start to finish it was absolutely phenomenal. Chicken terrine had excellent texture, and the cod was amazing. You can tell the chef gave an intimate detail on the dishes he makes. Yes it is pricey its an upscale restaurant but the quality and the food speaks for itself."
"5 stars for the venue, so gorgeous! And the people were very friendly. But it’s outrageous that the cheapest glass of wine is more than 10 pounds. And it wasn’t even nice, it tasted like cheap wine. It’s just a pity because the restaurant is awesome. The food was nice!"
