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!
Be the first to ReplyDelicious! 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 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.
Be the first to ReplyThis 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...
Be the first to ReplyA 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!
Be the first to ReplyAbsolutely fantastic.
We were fortunate to get a table for 4 for lunch. From entry to the restaurant to the walk back along the water of Leith it was a great experience. The physical space was lovely with the natural wood elements on the walls and the tartan backed booths. The service was professional and kind. We ordered the fixed menu with wine pairing. I enjoyed the ravioli, beef and lemon soufflé while our party similarly enjoyed the mussels, venison and strawberry dessert. The wine pairings were delicious. Tom Kitchin was in the restaurant and made the rounds through the dining room. Which was the cherry on top of the experience. Highly recommend.
Be the first to ReplyAmazing-went for lunch while in Edinburgh for my bday.
I opted not to go with the tasting menu which, for me, was a good choice given how many dishes I like to try. The attentive care was stellar, especially after two days of flying and I also recommend checking out the wine bar within the resto. Make it a stop with in Edinburgh. Comforting room by the water.

Exceptional food as you would expect made even better by the amazingly knowledgeable and professional staff in particular Evan who has a great career ahead of him.Superb all round experience which I would encourage everyone to experience.
Be the first to ReplyFood 5/5Service 1/5Ambiance 4/5Let me just start by saying
Food 5/5Service 1/5Ambiance 4/5Let me just start by saying the food here is incredible! We ordered one prestige menu and one standard menu to try food from both. The prestige menu food was definitely worth the extra cost with things like caviar and wagyu beef in the courses. Both menus tasted completely different from each other but equally delicious. The food was Michelin star quality food but the service was not.The service is where our meal completely fell flat. I have eaten at many Michelin starred or bib gourmand rated restaurants and they all aim for around 3-3:30 hour service time. We had a table of 4 and it took us just a few minutes shy of 5 hours for our meal. We would be sitting at an empty table 30 minutes in between courses before our next course arrived. My glass of water was only filled twice and remained empty almost the entire night - I had to ask for it to be filled. We saw almost every other table the the restaurant get seated get their food and leave before we were done. I have never encountered such a slow service before, it was definitely not worthy of a Michelin star service level. We didn't know who our waiter was because we had 4 different people wait on us throughout the night as if we weren't assigned a waiter like every other table was. I loved the food but with such a terrible service experience I cannot recommend this restaurant as there is a certain level of service quality expected with a Michelin star that was not delivered on for our group.
Be the first to ReplyThis was a big splurge but I'm so glad we did it! I saw it
This was a big splurge but I'm so glad we did it! I saw it on the show, Men in Kilts. We all had the Surprise tasting menu with wine pairing. My favorite dish was the scallops served in the shell sealed with delicious puff pastry. Everything else was delicious too! Service was excellent. Shout out to Zoey, Steve, Quentin and Evan! Be aware though. This is a very long dinner. It was 4 hours. We had 8pm reservations and left at 12am. I would have been ok with a 3 hr. Max.
Be the first to ReplyBest meal I've ever had .
.. Bar none!! Texture, fresh ingredients, presentation, creativity, taste, service, wine list... value for what you get. We ordered the Classic and Premium tasting menu. I actually think the Classic was better. I didn't think having the lobster and the wagyu beef made the difference, though they were delicious!! The sauces were ridiculously complex, beautiful, colorful and soooo good!! Bravo to the staff, Tom Kitchin and the fresh ingredients that Scotland provided... AMAZING meal. I can't find ANY faults... and I am picky. Food plus wine and gratuity was 500$ for 2. Quite worth the trip!!

Be the first to ReplyI've been to Michelin starred meals, but this one really
I've been to Michelin starred meals, but this one really stands out from all the ones I've had to date! The flavors and quality of ingredients was bar none and the service and experience was welcoming and special. Veronika our server made the meal sensational. Our sommelier picked out the most incredible wines. And Chef Tom personally greeted us and added some special touches to our meal. Blown away! Get that reservation stat! I'm so glad that Christine, their reservations manager was able to find us a slot during our visit to Edinburgh. The surprise tasting was the best treat our taste buds could have asked for. The scallop dish I'm going to be dreaming about for years to come! And as a mushroom lover, Chef Tom played incredible homage to one of my most favorite ingredients. If you want to experience one of the most tantalizing, visually stimulating, and epic meals of your life, secure yourself a table!
Be the first to ReplyOne of the best meals I've ever had.
Spent the evening with my wife and in-laws and each course was fantastic. The onion soup and chocolate bar were particularly great.
Be the first to ReplyMake your reservation months in advance.
Consider yourself fortunate, if you didn't have to. Tom Kitchin and his wife, Michaela, run this world famous, and generously awarded establishment.The staff is super friendly and not st all pretentious. The atmosphere is cozy and tastefully done. There was no way we could chose for ourselves so we chose the Chef's choice. A vegan and regular option. We also do the wine paring. Unbelievable, what a difference that makes. I will let the pictures speak for themselves. Everything was exquisitely done. You may feel like you can't eat any more, but you surely, can't leave it on your plate.
Be the first to ReplyWe came to the Kitchin on our second night in Edinburgh and
We came to the Kitchin on our second night in Edinburgh and it was nice to see a new part of town - Leith. The restaurant is beautiful and very big, especially for a Michelin restaurant. I got the classic tasting menu and my husband got the prestige. Our cocktails were delicious - the blood orange with egg whites was a standout. We got the same amuse bouches - the smoked mackerel bite was delicious and pea puréed soup was good but different. We also had sourdough bread and homemade butter which is always nice. We each got 6 courses (after the 2 amuse bouches) and the best courses on the classic menu were the first and last dish, but the middle 4 were definitely better on the prestige menu.Classic review - the scallop dish was a showstopper both in presentation and taste. The asparagus dish was good, but the gnocchi was an odd addition (though they were delicious). The monkfish was cooked perfectly but drowning in a butter sauce which ruined the dish for me (especially while I watched my husband eat his lobster dish) and they used the same gnocchi. I've never seen a Michelin restaurant repeat elements like that before. The lamb was also cooked perfectly and I enjoyed the sauces, but the spinach and tomato dollops weren't great. They also added some delicious shredded lamb on the plate but covered it up with lettuce when it was presented. Why?? Show that off! We both had the yogurt sea buckthorn dessert which was a showstopper - wow it was fresh and so delicious. I also loved my strawberry cheesecake dessert with fresh strawberries and mint.Prestige - razor clams were good but the scallop was better (classic menu). The asparagus course had the best sweetbreads my husband has ever had. He also said the lobster dish and the waygu filet/beef cannelloni dish were each delicious. He got the caramel apple soufflé for dessert which was cool to try something that's so hard to make but liked my strawberry dessert better.Overall the prestige menu is better but we would switch in the scallops dish and the strawberry dessert for a perfect meal. Service was good but not as attentive as some other Michelin restaurants we've been to.

Hands down. The food, the service, and the ambiance were all out of this world.
Be the first to ReplyDining here was such a lovely experience.
The food sadly didn't impress me as much as I was hoping, but it was a culinary journey I was happy go on for a few hours, especially for the reasonably priced pre-fixe lunch. The service is incredible and the dining room itself maybe one of the most elegant and detailed I've ever experienced. The mains sort of disappeared into the mix, but the grouse sausage appetizer and the blueberry tart were my two standouts. The grouse was gamey and the sauce reduction added some savoryness while the blood orange gave it some sweetness that was sometimes a little overpowering. The beef entree was good but unmemorable. A well-cooked piece of steak but an incredibly small portion that was surprisingly lackluster without the other components. The veggies and green sauce worked, but the texture and color of the oxtail was a little off putting as were the large bits in the sauce. Beautifully plated but not a dish I would look forward to again.
Be the first to ReplyThis was my first experience at a Michelin Star restaurant
This was my first experience at a Michelin Star restaurant and my husband and I love food and have a great appreciation for execution, quality, presentation and service. From the moment we walked in until the moment we left, we were blown away by all of those things with each element of our evening. We did the alacarte dinner menu and they were very sensitive to my food allergy which allowed me to enjoy my entire meal with no worries. Every person was extremely attentive to our needs through the evening and they run a very smooth operation. Every bite of food was mouth watering with incredible flavors and presentation. It was definitely our most expensive meal of our trip but we also went into it knowing that and allowed ourselves to indulge. And we have absolutely no regrets in doing so. Highly recommend!
Be the first to ReplyExcellent food and service! All the courses were fantastic.
Their attention to detail is outstanding. The restaurant itself is beautiful and their focus on local ingredients is a really nice touch.
Be the first to ReplyThe Kitchin is a one Michelin-starred restaurant in
The Kitchin is a one Michelin-starred restaurant in Edinburgh that I had the opportunity to try. They offer a variety of menu options, and lunch is an especially good time to come since you can get a two course meal for around 65 pounds.I decided to go all out - I had their Chef's Prestige tasting menu, which was 6 courses for 185 pounds. It was advertised as using the finest regional ingredients - and the meal even came with a little map of the UK indicating where different ingredients came from.Our meal started off in the bar with a little finger food - there were some crispy seaweed/rye cracker sticks that you dip into a creamy sauce before you are seated at your actual table.It started off with a tomato consomme, which was quite nice - a refreshing start and a nice reminder that we're eating seasonally, since tomatoes are harvested towards the end of summer.Then we had a salmon and caviar dish - this was quite exquisite, and the whole thing was served on a little jelly layer made of shellfish broth.The third course was when things really picked up for me - it was crisp veal sweetbreads that was creamy and luscious within, with mushrooms around it and a really savory sauce.The next lobster dish was a wonderful trompe l'oeil - a lobster tail was wrapped in an orange pasta layer, and another fish paste was wrapped in courgette blossom and it looked like carrots and zucchini. Quite the artful presentation.The savory courses ended with a slice of wagyu and some shredded short rib, which was tasty but nothing special.The pre-dessert was a meringue with blueberry sauce and a yogurt filling - a little too rich and sweet for a pre-dessert, in my opinion. I was expecting something more palate cleansing. Then the final dessert was a chocolate souffle that they dramatically pour whiskey chocolate sauce into for you. I was much too full at this point and didn't think much of this dish.Lastly, you're asked if you want tea or coffee - I forgot that it was part of the meal, and declined either, but this is included and they give you a round of millionaire's shortbread to finish off, which was really tasty and sweet, if a bit cloying.Service was quite expedient. I always appreciate being given a copy of the tasting menu after the fact, but I was mistakenly given a copy of the non-prestige menu - poor form! Our meal was twice as expensive as the regular tasting menu! The reason why I'm giving this experience four stars instead of five is because I feel like it's not completely worth the price. At this price point, I've dined at Geranium (which had way more innovative dishes) and L'Ambroisie (which had more premium ingredients). I think the savory mains were the best, but the desserts were not well balanced. My tip to you? Come here for lunch and order from one of their smaller set menus - you won't missing out if you miss a dessert or two.

Absolutely delicious! If you have the chance, try the surprised menu. You will not regret it. Everything the chef served was flavorful and interesting. They even tweak the menu if you have a preference or dietary restrictions.
Be the first to ReplyThis was a special anniversary dinner for me and my husband
This was a special anniversary dinner for me and my husband while we were visiting Edinburgh. The whole dining experience was exquisite from start to finish. It started off with us in the lounge with stater flat breads and my husband ordered a beer. Then about 15 minutes later we were escorted to the dining area. We both ordered the surprise tasting menu but really wanted the spoots and I really wanted the chocolate soufflé to finish. The waitress said she could make it happen and she did. Each dish was very flavourful but the spoots were my favourite. I ended up finding a shot (in my game dish) which I was quite appalled about but they said this is lucky and they called it "a shot for a shot" and gave us a shot of a rare whisky whicg my husband benefited from. We then got to go into the kitchen to meet Tom Kitchin. They probably felt bad for the shot thing. They sent us off with a sweet treat that we took home and had for a snack the next day. This was my first Michelin star event and it didn't disappointment. I found the courses all heavy so by the end of it I was uncomfortably full and had to walk a couple of miles just to let the food digest.

I come from NYC, one of the most heavily ladened Michelin starred cities in the world. I have eaten is many Michelin starred restaurants and this one just does not compare when it comes to taste.At first glance, this place is actually incredible. The staff are exceptionally professional, welcoming and attentive. They find a good balance of when to bother you and when to leave you alone. They make sure to refill your wine and your water. they are all well dressed and presentable. they know the menus and dishes well.The decor is phenomenal. It really offers a fine dining sort of feel. Though the stools with the (hopefully fake) cow fur that you can use to put your purse or jacket is a bit much.They offer an a-la carte menu as well as a tasting menu (though the a-la carte menu requires three coures...).The bathroom: SUPER FANCYThe presentation of the dishes: OUTSTANDING! The chef and his crew and truly artists. The presentations were so impressive I couldn't complain about thatWhy did I give it two stars? Because it is truly not worth the money because the food is awful. Now, not everything was awful. Let go through them in order1) Bread - at the bar they offered these bread crisps that each had their own individual flavor (ie. seawead, oat...I forget the rest). At the table, they offered this great sourdough bread, however, it only had a hint of sourdough flavor and tasted more like...bread.2) Amouse Bouche: this delicious little sampling of tiny balled carrots and cucumbers in this dill and ginger sauce was intense and amazing. It set the stage for the failure to come3) Scallops: Again, amazing presentation. They cook it in the shell and put a pastry around the opening which must be cracked open like you are opening up a present. The scallops stew in their own juices which seems like such a great idea. however, at first bite, the mind wonders: where is the taste? It tasted like...nothing. I felt the scallops on my tongue. I broke it down with my teeth and yet...nothing. Was this a mistake? i try another bite, again, nothing. It was literally the prettiest but blandest scallops I have ever eaten in my entire life.4) Monkfish: Same problem as the scallops. The presentation was beautiful. It was like looking at something from the Museum of modern Art. There was color and texture and excitement from that dish but there was no flavor. I mean..I sort of tasted the saffron..I guess? But it seemed like the key ingredient missing was SALT! The chef did not seem afraid to use other herbs and spices but where was the salt? I need to search the thesaurus for synonyms for the word bland because how many times do I need to say it? It was such a disappointment.5) Chocolate and coffee dessert with hazelnut praline. This was actually not bad. Super fancy dessert with rich chocolate and coffee and amazing textured offered by the hazelnut. It was nice to end the dinner with this.Overall, the bill totaled well over 300 dollars for two 3 course meals, a mocktail and a few glasses of wine. Am I glad to have done it? NoWould I recommend this to my friends? NoWould I come back? NoIn the world of food, you can have all the parts together but if you miss out on TASTE, that is a huge red flag in my book. I do not recommend.
Be the first to ReplyAn absolutely amazing experience.
Wonderful food and incredible service. We were welcomed warmly and made to feel as if we were the only diners in the restaurant although it was full.. We had the exclusive tasting with the standard wine pairing; each course was more incredible than the next. Each dish was a unique combination of tastes, ingredients we would never think of putting together that paired beautifully. There were four of us with different tastes and there wasn't a single dish that we didn't ooh and aah over. The somm was not only knowledgeable, but added to the experience by giving us insight into the geography and history of each wine as he served. In our dining history, we've only seen a greater attention to detail (by both the chefs and the wait staff) at the French Laundry - which was an experience but lacked warmth. Everything about the Kitchin was professional but not pretentious. Chef even took the time out for a photo op, which we really appreciated. The Kitchin itself is enough of a reason to come back to Scotland!
