I chose this restaurant as it was close to a venue we were visiting. The menu looked good so we went. I can honestly say that we were absolutely blown away by the food, it was simply outstanding! The restaurant has a lovely rustic atmosphere and decor, it feels truly Italian. Staff were friendly and attentive and the whole experience was lovely. I will definitely be returning and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others. If you like authentic Italian food, you won't be disappointed!

The best Japanese food I have had in Europe. Comparable to what you could get in any good restaurant in Japan. The quality of the fish was unbeatable and the presentation and taste were superb. The chef understands and respects his craft. I think the chef saw me enjoying his food so much that he even treated me with some O-toro! I am looking forward to travel back to Edinburgh to repeat a meal in this hidden jewel.
