The Kitchin Edinburgh Reviews from The Last Year
Amazing food and service
Service was great from the moment we arrived. We had a cocktail in the bar area which was served with a small canapé. In the dining room we ate off the a la carte menu. Between courses we were served an amuse-bouche which we didn’t expect. The waiter explained in detail on how each course was cooked. The choice was good and every course tasted amazing. I went for the Scallop to start, then the duck and chocolate mousse selection to finish. The prices are quite steep but we knew we were going to a high end Michelin restaurant so was expecting this and the quality of food was very good. It was a special treat. Not somewhere I could go every week (as much as I’d like too).
This is the the bar.
This is this should be the standard all 1 Michelin in scotland should be putting out 1st class. Razor clams amazing Salmon main amazing Buckthorn dessert everything I want in a pudding servic and wine all great. An expensive treat but we deffo got what we paid for and left happy.
A real treat
A well regarded restaurant in the popular and vibrant Leith district, it appears suitably plush and upmarket, but all the staff were pleasant and friendly and it wasn’t at all formal or stuffy. We were offered drinks whilst we perused the menu, which had three different options – a la carte, or two “surprise” tasting menus. Generally I’d be quite happy with a surprise tasting menu, but in this case it was difficult to choose between the two since they were both the same number of courses with the only discernible difference being that one used more premium ingredients. Considering there was a £50 price difference between each, we wanted a bit more detail than that, but fortunately this was not an issue and you could peruse the actual menu if you so wished, which was just as well really as we preferred the sound of the cheaper one! Everything we had was really very good, and it’s difficult to pick out any highlights. The beetroot consommé to start could perhaps have done with some actual pieces of beetroot in it, the flavour from the liquid didn’t seem very pronounced and some of the lamb fillet was a little chewy, but other than that it was all excellent. The scallops with a white wine, Vermouth and herb sauce were certainly very good, and a generous portion, and the barbequed John Dory was also very good indeed. A “Millionaire’s” caramel mouse to finish was a suitably decadent end to the meal, and the accompanying wine flight washed it all down very nicely. The wine flight included a glass of champagne to start, and the meal included a hot drink at the end (the menu listed tea or coffee, but they happily made me a chocolate!) although there was only one petit fours included which was a bit of a shame. Surely that should be a petit four? Overall though, very, very good and highly recommended.
The Rockpool Revived.
After many years the revitalised "Rockpool" is again a wonderful starter tasting of a shellfish selection in a pool of shellfish consomme. It is worth a visit for this alone. The Kitchin cooking continues to be the epitome of extracting the optimum taste from many of the less popular ingredients and the current menus have two which we tried. I love the Hogget. I think of it as lamb with attitude. The beauty of lamb with the enhanced flavours of the older animal. My wife ordered the Beef Shin. Often it is viewed as a brilliant flavour but only suitable for Beef consomme. Here all the rich taste of the beef is preserved whilst it is presented with a delicate texture. Both Mains are fine examples of creating fine dining courses from less known ingredients. There are no requirements here for the overwhelming sauces which so often emasculate the principal componet of many dishes elsewhere. All supported by a continuing excellence of service in a friendly, amusing and fun way.
Anniversary Meal
Always visit this restaurant every time we are in Leith and this is the first time I have left a review..What can you say about this fantastic restaurant...From the minute you arrive at this restaurant you are treated like royalty..The food is absolutely amazing and the wine list is extensive and full of amazing wines and Champagne..If you are very lucky the main man Tom Kitchin will be working there and fair play to him he comes out and greets everyone of the diners asking them how they are and how they are enjoying the food and he has no problem having a photo taking with you as well..If you have a special birthday or anniversary or any special event then this is the place for you..Had a fantastic pearl anniversary celebration here and many many thanks to Tom and his fantastic staff making it sooo memorable for the wife and i
Not recommended
Unfortunately do not recommend. The restaurant is very large and appears relatively classy, but the attitude of the staff markedly detracts from this. We went as a young couple. We could afford to pay for it, but had saved up, expecting it to be an incredible experience. It was incredible, but for the wrong reasons. The staff were very cold and seemed quite unwelcoming. We were told our choice of wine wasn't correct for the food. The food itself was pretty terrible. Would not recommend. Try Martin Wishart - that was incredible!
Vegetarian lunch
We wanted to love this restaurant, my husband and I visited with a voucher my mum had bought us, as she was a huge Tom Kitchin fan and adored her visit here. Unfortunately, from almost the outset, I felt like I was in the childhood story, "The Emperor's new clothes". Whether it was due to a quiet Tuesday 2pm lunch seating, the fact we are both vegetarian or that our hopes were high although our expectations weren't, the experience was among the poorest of us eating out. We have never eaten in a Michelin starred restaurant and indeed are often disappointed by vegetarian offerings compared to our creations at home that to eat out isn't common for us and perhaps we cannot offer the opinion and insight of others reviews of The Kitchin. But at the least we expect well seasoned, tasty food anywhere and here we were expecting to discover new techniques, innovative flavours and perfect presentation. None of this happened, the menu seemed tired, uninspired and bored, couldn't feel or taste any passion for cooking, even the descriptions given by the waiting staff were delivered as if rehearsed and monotone, perhaps they were embarrassed. The bread made elsewhere was good and the wine enjoyable, although having been lucky enough to stay in Valpolicella area last year, we had tasted and bought very similar quality wine from a winemaker, for around 15 euros so the markup to seventy pounds seemed steep. Even with the staff, we didn't get the buzz that others have experienced and felt that once we failed to deliver on effusive praise they lost interest or again due to the partially filled dining room and the evening service looming they were just ready for a break. When I was unable to eat my main as it was oversalted, they did whisk it away and had it remade, but too soon for me to explain that it was the ricotta filling, not the butter dressing, I felt as if there was a judgement on me rather than an interest in how the dish could be improved. Overall, our experience was flat and increasingly disappointing so that by the end we were quite annoyed and irritated and that was before the £210 bill.
An amazing restaurant
What an amazing restaurant. We have been here several times and it never fails to impress with the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the staff. Even though there was an issue with food coming out late, the staff covered the situation very well. We had a lovely meal from the fixed three course menu. Very highly recommended
I expected more !
We dined here to celebrate my wife's birthday We had been trying for some time to get booked but had been unsuccessful The service seemed to be a bit unorganised with the service waiter hovering around the waiting station on the arrival of other staff to place food down. This happened on almost every course We tried the surprise tasting menu, and it was nice, we felt a couple of the courses were a bit over seasoned, not what was expected The staff were very pleasant and there was lots of staff on duty As you would expect, the restaurant was busy for a Tuesday night After paying the bill and leaving, I found it strange that not one server thanked us as we were leaving the table and we were very generous with our gratuity
Exceptional experience
I've been wanting to visit here since seeing on "Remarkably places to eat! It was just a wonderful experience. We had the surprise tasting course. It was without doubt some of the most wonderful food we've eaten. Tom coming out from the kitchen to chat to his customers. Was a lovely touch. And actually presenting us with our rock pool course. Explaining it beautifull made our day. The staff are attentive and pleasant. With a shout out to lovely head waiter Franco . All in all , it may be expensive. Its clear the love and time being put in to every course. Treat yourself and visit. Thank you Tom. We will be back. Outstanding x
Special food experience
If you want a treat, then treat yourself here. The food is sublime and the service is incredible. It's a special occasion place but it's one of the best food experiences you can have
Fine dining in Leith
We went with my parents for an anniversary treat. A very special experience! The food was amazing and wine pairings were fantastic & very well chosen. My personal favourite dish was the scallops cooked inside the shell and sealed with pastry. Delicious! We got the tram from the city centre which took 20 minutes max and a short walk from the tram stop. Really easy to get there. Make sure to include this on your itinerary if you are a foodie exploring Edinburgh!
A memorable culinary adventure.
Located in the Port of Leith, this fine dining restaurant offers the best of Scottish cuisine - a delectable selection of innovative attractively presented dishes. Twelve of us relished the set lunch options, and reasonable priced highly quaffable wines or beers. Service is impeccable.
Excellent experience
Both myself and my partner could not fault our experience. The service was excellent, professional, and engaging. The food was outstanding well executed and packed full of interest and flavour a real showcase of great produce. We opted for the exclusive wine pairing to go with the tasting menu and we enjoyed what was served some really lovely pairings. Really enjoyed the experience and will return.
Culinary excellence and hospitality at the highest level
Superb in every way. We enjoyed a wonderful evening experiencing an array of Scottish produce. The team make you feel so relaxed and we could not fault anything. We will most certainly return!
Very Average
Weve dined here several times over the years and its either excellent or very average and on this occasion it was sadly the latter. The canape was really odd - it was a large ball of what felt like cold mashed potato, the onion and cheese topping didnt really come through - an unpleasant mouthful, also quite big which probably didnt help. The beetroot to follow was okay but just pickled beetroot in beetroot juice, simple but hard to eat. Starters - we had an issue with the scallops being under / raw which to be fair they dealt with quickly and fairly, the sweetbreads and langoustine were very good. Mains of Lamb and venison were tasty but nothing out the ordinary, some parts of the dishes were cold - the venison rump and the aubergine which just showed a lack of attention to detail. The rhubarb pre desert was probably the tastiest dish of the night as the deserts were espresso mouse which sounded great but only had the faintest taste of coffee, the doughnuts were the best thing on that one and the souffle had a scrambled egg consistency and was a disappointment. Hard to really pick out something which was great or memorable, even the Buckthorn cocktail was bland and didnt taste of having any alcohol in it. Lots of staff running around, lots of decanting sauces at the table, carving the lamb at the table for show but it all felt a bit style over substance. Over all a bit of a let down.
They don't use yelp in Scotland as much as we do in the US.
I wanted to leave this review anyway because this was one of the 10 best meals I have had in my life. I also attempted to Yelp as we were planning our trip. I saw this place on Men in Kilts and I had to take my Mom. Reservations are required and they ask for a credit card hold. The chef here is very talented and has the art of balancing a meal mastered. If you have the opportunity to travel to Edinburgh you must not miss this place. If I had to name the ambiance of this place it would be Cozy Elegant. Let the wine pairing happen! You will not be disappointed. The scallop appetizer is a must!
Well what an amazing experience from start to finish. Service was 100% & food outstanding.
Amazing atmosphere & amazing food, service was 100%. Would love to go back again one day. Was lovely to spend a special birthday there.
Delicious! Where to start? Everything was outstanding.
The Smoke cocktail was perfectly balanced, showcasing the peaty flavor of the Ardbeg Whisky. The Scallops might have been our favorite course of the tasting menu - although everything was memorable. The small printed map of Scotland with the source of every ingredient reinforced the farm to table orientation. The service was attentive and helpful.
We recently had the pleasure of dining at The Kitchin in
We recently had the pleasure of dining at The Kitchin in Edinburgh. From the moment we stepped through the doors, we felt ensconced in the atmosphere and genuine hospitality the restaurant provided. It was apparent that great care had been taken to create a place that was pleasing and comfortable as the interior décor was cozy and intimate. The Surprise Tasting Menu was diverse and the dishes were crafted with the utmost skill and creativity. Each of the seven courses that we indulged in was a true masterpiece (including the vegetarian versions) because the favors were exquisite and the presentation of each dish was a work of art. The staff was very knowledgeable in describing each dish and you can taste the thoughtfulness and care in every delicious bite. We were very pleased that we decided to also include the wine pairing because we enjoyed learning about each and they complimented each dishes perfectly. The only glitch was that the optional cheese course took a lot longer to be served than the previous courses and then the rest of the courses took longer than usual, as well as receiving our bill at the end, and the dinner service ended up taking 5 hours. Regardless, we had an exceptional meal that we thoroughly enjoyed and will never forget.
This Scottish Michelin star restaurant owned by Tom Kitchin
This Scottish Michelin star restaurant owned by Tom Kitchin of Edinburgh, did not disappoint! The service was impeccable, the food clean and delicious in a contemporary, relaxed ambiance. We arrived for our lunch reservation and were warmly welcomed and immediately seated. Our server greeted us with a daily menu, recommended favorite dishes complete with cocktails/wine pairings. The baked scallops were presented in a scalloped shell and served steaming hot in a creamy white wine sauce. The scallops were fresh, large and tender without a trace of sand/grit. That being said-- you were tempted to throw your head back, and drink the very last drop of gourmet cream sauce straight from the shell! The cheese tray offered an array of tasty morsels with a depth of flavor complimentary to our meals. Ahh-- and the desserts were lovely! They were pretty and delicate... leaving us with 'sweet' summer memories! I'm happy to share, the food and experience were both so good, I simply forgot to take photographs until dessert arrived! The expertise of the chefs, blended with the personable professionalism of the front of the house, made our dinning experience five star. When the chef visited our table to inquire if we enjoyed our courses... we knew we would visit again! Thank you...
A fantastic lunch from nature to table.
The food and service were both wonderful. We started with champagne and light appetizers and then moved effortlessly through the meal. We enjoyed scallops, grouse and venison each dish was fantastic Ly prepared and cooked to perfection. We finished with a lovely soufflé. Definitely a place to savor and enjoy one's meal with friends wine and wonderful food!
