Extraordinary experience. Open kitchen format, small group (10? seated in front of the prep/cooking area. Each course and wine pairing explained by the chef with detail, deep knowledge, and genuine, infectious enthusiasm and love of good food. Sean clearly cares deeply about the food and wine he serves (yes, you get to engage with the chef! , and he sources, preps, and prepares it with a level of integrity I thought had disappeared in the world. Each course, each bite even it’s hard to put into words how legitimately incredible both the food and the wine were As an experience, wonderful I went solo and by the end of the night was talking with the Scottish couple to my left and laughing with the American group of four friends to my right. Hands down a highlight of my time in Scotland. Do this, it will blow your mind!

This is a a great neighbourhood restaurant with delicious food, great ambiance and an affordable cocktail and wine list. Very happy that is has opened in the New Town.

A totally under the radar restaurant. My son booked this three years plus ago, and in the meantime, they 'd updated their booking system and lost his. The chef sorted it personally and phoned him to confirm everything was OK. It 's an auspicious start. We turned up outside the door with very discretion signage and were surprised to find it shut. Not to worry, it opened up on time, and we were invited in by the chef, Sean. It is a long, breakfast bar style eatery with only 10 customers per night, and the food is cooked right in front of you. Sean and his co worker Keith got us in and settled down, then explained what would be happening, offering us drinks menus to choose from Once we had our drinks, the magic began. They started making the meal before us, Sean speaking with the customers and Keith quietly getting on, doning a white glove to set the cutlery and keeping everything running smoothly. They play a wide selection of music from the 50 's through to the nineties while cooking as well. Sean explained what each course was as it was served and some background details about the food. Which is sublime. A very quick summary of our menu, it 's highly likely yours will not be the same, but the quality will be. 1 canopes, minin madelime whisky cheese Deep fried olive hw 2 Starter frogs leg,pear garlic 3 biased ox cheek and polenta.

Once the meal is finished, the two guys are happy to chat while tidying up. Overall, it was an absolutely incredible eating experience. If you are in the happy position of being able to afford it, this is an absolute must if you are visiting Edinburgh. If, like me, you live here, then this is a bucket list restaurant for food lovers. They also have a new bistro just opened called Under the table, which is directly underneath. Bookings open on the first of each month for the following month.
