Wow ! This really is a gem of a food venue ! We were a group of 3 adults looking for a delicious freshly cooked meal and this did not disappoint . I can’t believe how good value this was , originally we were going to have the main menu but then realised that most of the items we wanted were on the fixed menu which was a complete bargain for the food offered. From arriving into the venue to each drink and meal as it arrived was perfect The onion and Parmesan soup was the tastiest soup we have had for a long while. We each had different mains from the chicken , fish and a vegetarian risotto, we all tried each dish and everyone of them was packed full of flavour and presented beautifully . As the first two courses were such a hit we actually all decided on dessert/ cheese selections, these did not disappoint and were fresh and tasty. We all had clean plates for each meal and the bottle of red we had between us was the perfect accompaniment. We would happily come back to sample more fresh food on our future visits to Edinburgh. Perfect last evening for our trip . Thank you for such a great service!
This is a gem featuring Scottish cuisine at its best. After visiting the Water of Leith and the Botanical garden, we ended up having the best meal of this Edinburgh trip. From starter, main and dessert, everything on the table bring joy to the mouth and smile to the face. We are from Montreal where the city is famous for all European cuisines. After the meal, I passed by the kitchen and told the chef that Montreal needs a Tollhouse. I wonder if my wish will come truth someday.
Went here for a Sunday roast lunch deal. The service was excellent. Very attentive and obliging. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. A little disappointed there wasn't a vegetarian roast option. My friend had the aubergine and said it was little soggy, as she put it but the bulgar wheat with it was really good. As for the traditional roast it was nice to have the vegetables blanched/hard rather than soft but it may not be to everyone's preference. Would definitely recommend trying out the duck leg rillettes and the sticky toffee pudding. They also do a good cappuccino and hot chocolate. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.
