Edinburghs The ivy:19/12/24 The waitress and the waiter were really nice the food sounds good and some... Interesting. Its kind of noisy. The drinks: The drinks were really nice my mother says it's really nice she also says it is fruity and goes down easily. The looks: It looks really nice there's candle's in the middle of each table the view has to much construction though there's lamps in the middle of each window to the paintings in the back are... Kind of nice actually there's a leaf in a corner of the room which I like The starter: The smoke salmon was amazing and wonderful especially with the lemon best smoke smalon ever. The foods time to come. Its taken a long time. The main course: The fish was exquisite one of a kind and the chips were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING WAY BETTER THAN THE SMOKE SALMON WHICH I THOUGHT WAS THE BEST the mushy peas were... Weird and the ribeye steak was good but burgers are still better. The dessert: Since it was my sister's birthday I got a FREE dessert and it's part of a birthday cake AND trust me IT'S TO DIE FOR!!! The bill: The bill is way less than I thought just 231!?!? THAT'S A BARGAIN ESPECIALLY FOR HOW MUCH WE GOT! The rating: The final rating is... 4.5 stars🌟⭐🌟⭐ Review by Ollie Smith

We booked last minute for lunch on 17 December and got a table at Cafe Royal for 1430 hours. We enjoyed sharing the sourdough with crab butter and then my wife had sun blushed tomato sandwich with avocado and rosemary tinged fries. I went for the classic fish and chips. House white wine was delicious. A very pleasant experience and an enjoyable way to spend an hour in the week before Christmas in the oldest oyster bar in Scotland!
