    Gary should be knighted for his services to getting people back to eating out and supporting businesses. I used to eat out a lot but not so much any more.

      Hub and me used to eat out three times a week, but a lot of the time, the food was mediocre and very overpriced. We rarely go out now. I don't miss it tbh. I cook at home. So much nicer and probably healthier and a lot, lot cheaper for sure.

      Well things must have changed in 15 years when I drove 3500 miles from Essex round every inlet in Scotland. NOT ONE DECENT MEAL ANYWHERE! In several restraints the sauce in the starter was the same as the main!! In anything that resembles a restaurant the prices were outrageous for rubbish. Given the wonderful coast - no fish! Best was a smokie in a cafe. So to see this is no longer the case in wonderful Scotland.

    I have been fortunate enough to visit Edinburgh three times, and must confess it’s the most beautiful and culturally historical city I’ve ever seen!
    This restaurant is just off the Royal Mile, a short walk from the magnificent St Giles Cathedral.

    So good to see an independent restaurant being acknowledged world wide. Uncontaminated by celebrity nonsense and certainly not a tourist trap. What a wonderful city Edinburgh is too.
    The presentation of each dish was simple yet pleasing on the eye. (They say you eat with your eyes). The key words here Gary are flavour, flavour, flavour ! Top drawer and a 10/10 from me. Dare I say, it's probably the best review on your channel to date..

    Looked at another reviewer's video of a restaurant in Italy where the bill came to 590 euros per couple (200 euro min/person) and the meal was so small and bad that the reviewer left there still hungry.This restaurant in Edinburgh shows that simplicity is what we as customers value more than decor and fancy presentation. Definitely deserving of the national and world rating and there are many many more places like that in Scotland just waiting to be sampled. Loved the review and your 10* rating was spot on!!!!!
