The lunch tasting menu and matching wine were superb, the sommelier was very knowledgeable and informative, the only critique I would make is that when there's a few empty table it lacks a little atmosphere

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful lunch at this restaurant on a rainy Saturday and were warmly welcomed into its comfortable surroundings. We chose to have the Seafood Taster Menu and were not disappointed. Each dish was beautifully presented and extremely tasty. The staff were attentive and extremely helpful. Not cheap but definitely great value for money, fine dining... More

Location: In the Leith area of Edinburgh, there is some parking the the vicinity, which is off street. Martin Wishart's was a top notch Michelin Star experience, to the same standard one would expect, however, I would say that it does not have the same wonderfully special feel of his restaurant in Cameron House, Loch Lomond. Food: The food was... More

We've been lucky enough to visit 3 times of the past couple of years and loved each meal. The setting is beautiful with fantastic service, a knowledgable sommelier, etc so it is perfect for a special occasion.

My husband and I are lucky enough to have eaten here twice now. Last November 2012 was our first visit. The decor is understated & elegant. The taster menu was AMAZING. We both instantly agreed it was the best meal we have EVER eaten in our lives & we have eaten all around the world at various restaurants of a... More

I took my partner here for his birthday in July 2012 and we were blown away! There is nothing that you can fault. This is not a place you would eat every day or even once a month, I would say for a special occasion for it to be enjoyed properly. If you haven't tried this place, then add it... More

We ate here for my sons and husbands birthdays and it was very special, the restraunt itself is very nice and the food lovely, I did have difficulty understanding some of the staff as they spoke quickly and with heavy accent, would have liked to know more about the wines served with the taster menu, instead of just being shown...

7 of us had the tasting menu with wine, and we all agreed that it would be hard to beat. Excellent service too.

The first thing to say is that my experience at Martin Wishart was so thoroughly enjoyable it compelled me to write a review. From the service, the sommelier and, of course, the sumptuous food the evening could not be faulted. The most difficult decision was between the original taster menu and the seafood one; we had both at the table... More
