About this restaurants :
It was a disappointment for us.Ambience was above average, service was average.As a Michelin starred restaurant, I had read that it would be one of the top three on the island, but it definitely doesn’t deserve it.I don’t remember any special taste in all the dishes except fish, I have tasted much more delicious menus in many ordinary restaurants.The salt content was high, the potato ball, bread and butter were ordinary. I found the prices high for this quality of food. Although the vast majority of googled reviews are close to perfect, I try to be objective and say that it is unfortunately not a restaurant that deserves these praises and money in terms of taste, ambiance and service.
Michelin-starred gem by the Leith waterfront. Nature-to-plate philosophy and symphony of flavors. They manage to accommodate my gluten-free needs, very impressed. Recommended to go for wine pairing with surprise tasting menu.
Michelin-star magic awaits!

Feel blessed to have finally come to the mother ship after dining at Tom’s other two spectacular restaurants in Edinburgh. Our experience will be one that will live long in our memories. Starting from a very warm welcome on a rainy Leith day, the whole team were wonderful from start to finish. We decided to go for the 7 course surprise tasting menu & wine pairing. Not to spoil the surprise too much, I can say that each dish, sourcing Scottish ingredients, took us to another level. Highlights are hard to give as the entire meal was incredible however, the scallops, the pork cheeks, the halibut – wow! Was really nice to see Tom at the end of our meal for a chat – what a gem this place is, what a treat – come try it soon, you will be happy you did.
Spectacular! We had an amazing tasting menu and wine pairing experience. The food was exquisite, great service and atmosphere. We even said hello to Tom who was there on the night talking to diners.
They have a nice bar too, with a good selection of whiskies (as you would imagine).
One of the best meals we have ever had.

The food was okay, but not impressive for the price. The atmosphere was nothing special, and the service was disappointing. The only dish worth recommending is the scallop, which tasted good. The bread, however, was better than expected, lol. Overall, just average.
