- LLoraineYorkshire •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days ago⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A truly wonderful and memorable evening! My husband and I enjoyed an absolutely beautiful meal here last night, and it really was a special evening. The food was outstanding — beautifully presented, full of flavour and clearly prepared with such care and attention to detail. Every dish was a delight. What made the evening even more special was the incredible staff. They were exceptionally attentive, warm, welcoming and professional throughout. Nothing felt like too much trouble, and their genuine hospitality made us feel so well looked after. The service really was every bit as impressive as the food. If I were to mention one small thing, it would be the noise level from some of the surrounding tables, which occasionally made it difficult to enjoy a quiet conversation together. However, I completely appreciate that this is largely outside the restaurant’s control, and it certainly wouldn’t detract from our wonderful experience. Exceptional food, outstanding service and a truly memorable evening. We would return in a heartbeat and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!More infoMonteiths££££• Scottish• The Royal Mile•4.6
