We ate at Smoke Stack before Christmas. Wasn’t exactly “fancy” but the service was good and the steaks were unreal

OnaBegonia · 19/01/2022 21:36

We were at Contini at the weekend, it was lovely

StarryNightSparkles · 19/01/2022 21:36

Just had a look at the witchery it looks stunning but we are too fussy for the menu. I like steak so will check out smoke stack. I am so excited it will be the first time me and dh have had a night out or been dc free since 2019.

Thanks so much for all the suggestions everyone I will look at them all 😊💖💐

Don't bother with the witchery. Its touristy and style over substance.

The Dome

Plump82 · 19/01/2022 21:52

Devils Advocate. Its our very favourite. Lovely cosy atmosphere and the food and drink are always excellent!!

PPCD · 19/01/2022 21:53

Wisharts in Leith is lovely

Pootle40 · 19/01/2022 21:59

We like Wedgewood on the high st

Thievesoil · 19/01/2022 22:01

A little further out but prestonfield.

Six by Nico in town

WhatWouldTheDoctorDo · 19/01/2022 22:42

Noto. Really enjoyed a meal there last year.

Bon Vivant is nice.

PersonCareHotline · 19/01/2022 22:45

Another vote for Wedgewood. If you like steak the Mussel and Steak Inn is very good value

Bushkin · 19/01/2022 22:48

The grainstore (particularly great value lunch)
Monteiths
Bon Vivant
Cafe st honore
Educated flea (awesome sharing steak)

Bushkin · 19/01/2022 22:49

Witchery, done & 6 by nico all style over substance in their own ways

StarryNightSparkles · 19/01/2022 23:32

Thanks so much for all your suggestions 💖 I have booked the Dome as the menu looked good and the building was completely my style. Looking forward to trying it out.

It's completely surreal to imagine we will be dressing up and eating without children. Looking forward to savouring every moment of our time at this venue.

I was about to suggest, as others did, the Dome. You chose well!

StarryNightSparkles · 20/01/2022 02:05

Thanks The fold ox.

Angels with bagpipes on the royal Mile, food is gorgeous!

JustAnotherSod · 20/01/2022 11:21

For a fabulous steak dinner I'd recommend the Chop House - there are three in Edinburgh and the lunch menu is great value, although the steaks can be pricey

ParkheadParadise · 20/01/2022 12:19

The Dome is an excellent choice. I love going there.
Enjoy yourself 🥂🥂

Chez joules is lovely! We had our anniversary meal there x
