“A great place to eat in Leith! The food was amazing, our waitress was very nice, the ambiance was perfect inside. We had the smoked fish platter (great), the mussels (great) and the pea pana cotta (not what I would usually order but very good!). The bread came with an amazing sauce. If you’re in the area, definitely check it out!”

“The sauce with the oysters is pure witchcraft. Had the fish pie too. Next level. Someone in a previous review complained it was too runny. Whaaat? Nonsense. It was perfect. Great service too. My new most favourite pub/restaurant in Edinburgh.”

“Had an awesome meal there last night. The smoked fish app and mussels were excellent, and my Fish Pie was amazing. It was rich and full of flavor.”

“I recently dined at this restaurant and had mixed feelings about the overall experience. The starters were absolutely delicious, setting high expectations for the rest of the meal. However, the mains fell short. The fish pie, while flavorful, was disappointingly runny. It was so liquid that we had to use a spoon instead of a fork. Despite its good taste, the consistency was off-putting. The wine selection, on the other hand, was excellent, with a variety of high-quality options that complemented our meal well. Unfortunately, the dessert was another letdown. We ordered a cheesecake, but it lacked the signature texture and flavour of cheese, resembling more of a double cream. It missed the mark entirely. In summary, while the starters and wine were highlights, the fish pie and cheesecake left much to be desired.”

“Beautiful day, and eating here was the best decision we have made. The staff are very personable as well as helpful. I had the scallop dish, which was phenomenal, and one of the best dishes I have had in a long time. My friend had the fish pie, while steaming hot, the flavors were amazing and well balanced. 2 truly amazing dishes. The fish and chips that the wives had were absolutely huge, but fresh and well cooked. Definitely a place to go for an amazing meal. The Jazz music was especially comforting and relaxing.”
