The restaurant has lost the magic of hospitality. We were seated in an upstairs location and I could see all of the staff. They were all walking around, always on a mission. The food is was very good, not amazing. I ordered the fish platter, it was very good, but completely and totally overpriced. My wife enjoyed the halibut that was also a bit pricey. This is a reasonable choice for dinner in Edinburgh, but I would suggest looking elsewhere for fish. Others have commented about the meat, I can't provide an opinion.

The mango salad and nam jim sauce are nice, but the sea bass is already full of flavor. The atmosphere is nice and the local people at the table next to us is so friendly.

The desserts were not their forte, so feel free to skip it. The Cullen Skink as an appetizer is a must-try! So why the low score? Well, unfortunately, the waitstaff was absolutely abhorrent. We, along with other tables around us were ignored. It was so bad that, in order to get any service, refresh a drink, get a napkin, a dessert menu or whatever, I often had to stand up and wave my arms to get the attention of the staff. The absolutely lowest point came when I flagged down our server to get a dessert menu. We ordered from it immediately (because we didn't want to wait forever until someone passed our way again). She took our order, wiped our table off and went to the kitchen area. 30 seconds later, she returned with her purse on her shoulder and left for the evening. Did our dessert order go in? Nope. After about 10 minutes, we flagged someone else down and asked about our dessert. They were not aware of any dessert order and put one in for us. 5 minutes later, it was served. Ridiculous. A gentleman at the table beside us had to go find someone so he could get his bill to pay it. Once he led the waitress back to his table and paid her, we grabbed her attention just so we could get our bill and get out of there. It's a hard lesson for us to learn that, no matter how good the food is at a restaurant, terrible service can make for a n overall horrible experience. If you want to try this place, maybe get something to carryout and let the waitstaff learn how to provide proper service before eating there and ruining what should have been a pleasant meal.

We walked here from Leith in search of The Fishmarket as featured on "Somebody Feed Phil." Unfortunately there was no fried crab claw on the menu like in the episode. I was quite looking forward to that. The restaurant has these weird sliding doors almost out of Star Trek that gave me problems over and over. Making two trips to your table from the take out counter? You can't get back inside without pushing through the line to order or sliding uncomfortably behind a pole to squeeze your way in. The fish and chips were really good. Two small and one large supper fed the four of us. The fries could be crisper, but it seems like all the U.K. fish and chips places are like this. Maybe the hot fish steams them a bit. We ate our fish and chips on the pier while watching a lovely sun set at 9:30 p.m. over Newhaven.

When I say just, it's soo much more than just dinner! We ordered a large selection off the great menu and were delighted with all of our choices. The whole of the grill section was gobbled up at speed - particularly the haloumi and the steak, oh and the chorizo and the prawns. The pork belly in cherry coke glaze was to die for, crispy, sticky and fatty in all the right ways! Greens were a good mix of crunchy and tasty veg and the gratin was creamy and yummy.

For those familiar with original place, you'll know the food is top notch quality and yummy! They've also opened up an adjoining bar called The Bangkok bar which serves Thai street food. V handy if you're down that end of town for drinks and fancy a tasty small bite alternative. Sometimes Thai food just hits the boozing spot like nothing else!! I've not tried the cocktails but I'm assured by a friend they're worth a trip. I tried the main restaurant on Saturday night as part of a big group celebrating a friends birthday. They were more than happy to accommodate large groups, balloons and birthday cake. Nothing was an issue at all. Wine wasn't overpriced. Instead of my normal go-to Thai options I mixed it up a bit with a starter of Marinated quail and a main of Osso Bucco Massaman. The quail was delish! Crispy, salty, tasty. I would have sucked the bones dry if I wasn't trying to be a lady in front of the group! Ha ha. A really nice alternative to chicken. I'm not sure i was entirely sold on the main though which is probably my aversion to hunks of meat and bone, not a reflection of the quality of the dish. The meat was slow cooked and tender, but I was put off a bit with the sliced bit of bone marrow in the centre. I guess I'm not an Osso Bucco kinda gal really. Its definitely in a "man food" category. The sauce was amaaaaazing though! I had a few spoons waved my way for a taste. This place is well worth a visit!!!

We stopped in for breakfast and from the moment I looked at the menu, I knew this wasn't your typical brunch spot. As someone who's been sober for over a decade, I genuinely appreciated seeing a thoughtful nonalcoholic drink menu instead of the usual afterthought. Creative, intentional, and every bit as interesting as the cocktail list. Then the food showed up. The breakfast naan sandwich absolutely lived up to the hype. One of those meals where you immediately start thinking about when you can come back and order it again. Everything was packed with flavor, beautifully balanced, and somehow comforting while still feeling completely different from anything I'd had before. Dishoom's breakfast menu has become famous for those naan rolls, and after trying one, I completely understand why. What impressed me most was that nothing felt gimmicky. The concept, the atmosphere, the drinks, and the food all supported one another. Honestly, I'm not aware of anything quite like this in the States. It feels less like going out for breakfast and more like stepping into another city's café culture for a couple of hours. Dishoom was one of the culinary highlights of my trip to Edinburgh, and it'll be one of the first places I return to the next time I'm back in the UK

The bun maska was perfectly drenched in butter, and the chai was hot and comforting. The chili chicken was also really flavorful with the perfect spice level. For our mains, we got the Ruby Chicken and House Black Dal with garlic naan, chili paratha, and a side of plain rice. The Ruby Chicken had a delicious tomato gravy, and the chicken pieces were really soft. The dal was thick and creamy. Everything paired together so well. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself was beautiful, with a Bombay-inspired atmosphere. There's seating both upstairs and downstairs, and while we didn't have any issues, I've heard there can be long wait times. Our server was friendly, although the service felt a little sloppy at times. They also surprised us with complimentary champagne since we were celebrating a special occasion, which was really nice. I found the portions to be a little smaller, and it's definitely on the pricier side, but I think it's worth the splurge. If you're visiting the UK, I'd definitely recommend checking out Dishoom!
