GoOutIn Edinburgh Recommends

Iggs Restuarant

If you want classy, but un-intimidating, 'Iggs' is the restaurant for you. The innovative menu offers up classic Spanish tapas, re-interpreted with cunning little twists. We enjoyed delicious Presa Iberica – Iberico pork and caramelized belly, but for fish fans, seafood stew a Read more about Iggs Restuarant

Two Thin Laddies

Two thin laddies... entered this café and weren't thin for long. Perhaps one of them was Black Books star Dylan Moran – he has been known to linger over a meal here. Who could resist the home-cooked lovelies on offer? Classic dishes rule the roost; pasta bakes, quiche, macaroni chee Read more about Two Thin Laddies

Haldanes

Crouching beneath the Albany Hotel, Haldanes continues the luxurious hotel vibe; think boudoir sophistication with Frank Sinatra crooning in the background - odd but successful. Food is excellent, courses are beautifully presented pieces of art: parcelled, drizzled and balanced to perfection. A crab Read more about Haldanes

Chocolate Soup

This is surely the closest one can get to Willy Wonka's famous establishment and there's certainly enough confectionary here to turn you into an Augustus Gloop. There are puritanical alternatives, including bowls of hot porridge and a range of fresh coffees, but only hardened chocoholics s... Read more about Chocolate Soup

Guiliano's on the Shore

All the Italian favourites are at Guilianos on the Shore from pizza and pasta, to waiters that could double as the Super Mario Brothers. The traditional food's freshly cooked and there's a wine list as long as the Water of Leith. There's even live accordion music Mon–Wed nights,... Read more about Guiliano's on the Shore

Bar Italia

This centrally located Italian joint is consistently busy, noisy and full of energy, and so it should be. The food is fresh, tasty and cheap and if you rock up with twenty mates they won't even bat an eyelid. As such it's perfect for birthday celebrations with plenty of banter and enthusia... Read more about Bar Italia

Native State

GoOutIn wishes 'Avoid like syphilis' would suffice as a review, but we're afraid that might leave a lot of you feeling angry and shortchanged. You should probably channel your rage towards this abysmal establishment though – it's dark, uncomfortable, and full of students who ... Read more about Native State

Buffalo Grill

Lusting for a hunk of grilled beef? We thought so. Wild West décor and wafts of Aberdeen Angus beckon diners through the doors of Buffalo Grill. The wood-panelled dining room is the perfect place to ponder which juicy steak or massive burger to order. Prawns or homemade salsa as a starter wil... Read more about Buffalo Grill

The Petit Paris

If you turned the Eiffel Tower on its side and pushed it back and forth through the Arc de Triomphe, you might get a petit Paris nine months later. Though sadly this isn't the origin of this restaurant, it matters little, despite how logistically exciting that may be. Everything on the menu her... Read more about The Petit Paris

The Stockbridge Restaurant

The Stockbridge Restaurant, located in, you guessed it, Stockbridge, is ideal for that much needed escape from student-life or the perfect end to a day of make believe that you're a wealthy forty year-old treating your mistress to something a little special. Though toeing the line between decad... Read more about The Stockbridge Restaurant

Mackenzies

Named after the Edinburgh born writer Henry Mackenzie, who must have been very small or prone to stooping from the looks of this place. With a distinct wedding reception feel, the gaudy, cramped interior reveals a clear desire to maximise profits rather than provide good service. Admittedly the plac... Read more about Mackenzies

Number One Restaurant

The phrase Number One will have you thinking one of two things – 1) Number one: the best, the bee's knees, the cat's pyjamas etc. Or 2) Number one: a euphemism for piss. Thankfully, the food, atmosphere and service at Number One Restaurant fits snugly into the former category. Even th... Read more about Number One Restaurant

Dial

Apparently there are still people in Edinburgh who actually think this place's interior is the height of modern style. It is your duty to seek them out and inform them that though there's nothing wrong with the place, it was designed in the mid 90s, which can hardly constitute cutting&ndas... Read more about Dial
