Best European Restaurants in Leith

We were 3 adults and 5 children aged between 10 & 15. We had a very positive experience. We were visiting Edinburgh to catch up with each other and this place was perfect to do that, it was really easy to talk to each other. The service was excellent all wait staff were absolutely lovely and the food was great.

Great lunch! Food was excellent and service was superb. What a nice experience. I didn’t expect such a nice restaurant on the Royal Mile. We already booked another reservation during our stay. I would definitely recommend!

I shared the experience with my wife and let me tell you they did not disappoint. The food was great. The service was outstanding, and the vibe was just all there. ✨✨

We had visited the Brasserie several times over the summer and been very impressed, so we were looking forward to this visit. As always, the staff were superb - friendly, welcoming, fun and extremely efficient. Unfortunately, the menu had changed significantly and, whilst we enjoyed what we had, the choice of dishes had been notably reduced, the prices increased and the portion size seemed to have diminished. I have a food allergy and my choice of dishes was much more restricted than before. All in all, whilst we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and cannot praise the staff more highly, we have decided that we probably won't return as we simply were not impressed with the menu.

The food was excellent. Simple Italian done well. However there were significant issues with the service. Our mains were presented to us whilst still eating our starters. We weren’t at all slow so there was no apparent reason. We sent away the first server and then a couple of minutes later another appeared with the plates again! They did not appreciate that what they were doing was wrong. It was a busy Saturday and maybe the serving staff were not fully experienced, certainly their reaction, or lack of understanding, might suggest this. However, I suspect the real issue was in the kitchen as the waiting staff would just deliver whatever was brought to the pass. I don’t know but it really took the shine off a family meal that was celebrating my significant birthday.
