Edinburgh restaurants

You might start off by looking through this post - there are a number of good recommendations for Edinburgh. https://community.ricksteves.com/travel-forum/scotland/looking-for-restaurant-recommendations-for-scotland

For take away, we liked The Piemaker on South Street. Recently we enjoyed Bertie’s Proper Fish & Chips on Victoria Street.

Are there any heart-healthy restaurants?

Wishing you a wonderful time in beautiful Edinburgh!

There’s a food market that recently opened with indoor and covered outdoor seating:

For mike, over 1/3 of the menu is plant based.

I really like Baba which is on the same square as the First Minister's residence. Excellent meze, middle eastern inspired food. And great cocktails and mocktails.

For a splurge we enjoy Purslane

I really enjoyed my two meals at Mussel Inn. The seafood is fabulous and service excellent. Not a fancy place but I reserved a day ahead for a table.

Oops. Mardee, I see my January post in the link you supplied. Forgot I did that.

If you like Italian food, Gordon's Trattoria right on the Royal Mile is a small family run restaurant. We loved it so much last October we went 2 times.

@Linda, I had already written down a lot of options from the previous post for my upcoming trip, but it never hurts to see it again!

The lines are usually long unless you arrive early, but Dishoom was far and away my favorite restaurant in all of the UK.

I have reservations at both Baba and Dishoom. Getting very excited about the food at both of those places. Sleight, evidently you can reserve for lunch.
