"Locals and visitors flock to this laid-back pub-cum-bistro down on the waterfront, and to its sister restaurant, Fishers in the City, at 58 Thistle Street in the New Town."
Frommer's
"There are smarter fish restaurants in the capital, but this one feels more spit and sawdust. From bisque to bass, the usual suspects jump off the menu. "

Rough Guide
"As part of a £67, five-course dinner you might encounter a dish such as baked sea bass fillet with lemon and saffron pancakes, pink radish, shiitake mushrooms and cardamom ginger butter sauce."
Time Out
"The cooking is among Scotland’s best; dinner is structured around a choice of three starters, then soup, then a choice of three mains, then cheese, then a choice of three desserts. "

"A menu that changes weekly, the cooking is always on point at this Michelin-worthy restaurant with rooms on Royal Terrace. Crisp linen tablecloths and walls draped in curtains set a decadent scene"
