Best Fine Dining in Dalmeny

"Restaurant Martin Wishart, Edinburgh|Courtesy of Restaurant Martin Wishart. The first of Edinburgh’s restaurants to be granted a hallowed Michelin star, Leith’s Restaurant Martin Wishart could take credit for turning what was once a forgotten corner of the city into one of its most exciting culinary scenes. The chef’s tasting menus are legendary – classic French cooking meets Scottish-caught lobsters and langoustines – and the elegant setting and crisp linen tablecloths in the pristine dining room add to the refined experience."

"This multi award-winning restaurant is located in the historic port of Leith area of Edinburgh. Opened in 1999 by Martin Wishart, an award-winning chef and restaurateur, it was the very first restaurant in Edinburgh to receive a Michelin Star in 2001. With fresh flowers on tables and gentle glowing lighting, it certainly won’t disappoint with the romantic aspect."

"Best for FoodiesIn a nutshell Little more than a restaurant with rooms with Michelin-star chef Paul Kitching’s mind-boggling menus as the focal point — haggis with grapes and yoghurt, or smoked salmon with curried banana, are standard. There are only four rooms to choose from, each with access to a private garden, but a stay gives guests access to one of Edinburgh’s most beautiful cocktail bars. Take note that the restaurant is open Wednesday to Saturday only.Don’t miss A stroll to the top of nearby Calton Hill for the best skyline sunset in Scotland."

"Between the ever-evolving weekly menu, swanky furnishings and informed wine list, 21212 is one to watch out for. Pinned as Edinburgh’s only Michelin-starred restaurant with rooms, Paul Kitching’s masterpiece is housed in a striking Georgian Townhouse. The chameleon menu sports three choices per course and pays tribute to his contemporary French cooking flair."

"This family owned restaurant is bursting with charm and flavor. Located in a beautiful four story Georgian town house in Edinburgh’s Royal Terrace, you’ll be welcomed by stunning architecture. The restaurant has received numerous awards including a Michelin star, 4 AA rosettes and was even named the UK’s best new restaurant."

"New to the Edinburgh dining scene Condita is a very intimate dining experience with just six tables which offers a five or eight course surprise tasting menu. The restaurant uses produce from a 19th century walled kitchen garden in the Scottish Borders alongside the best meat and fish that is available in Scotland. The kitchen also uses a forager for wild ingredients."

"Condita Restaurant Address: 15 Salisbury Place, Edinburgh, EH9 1SL, Scotland. Condita dining is by reservation only – telephone +44(0)131 667 5777. Reservations request and gift token email: enquiries@condita.co.uk"

"Opened in 2009 with Head Chef Mattia Camorani at the helm, award-winning restaurant Cucina is the vibrant, bustling soul of Radisson Collection Royal Mile Hotel Edinburgh located on the city’s historic Royal Mile. The restaurant offers fresh and authentic Italian dishes, perfectly matched to the season, all year round. The menus and atmosphere created at Cucina are based on the enjoyment of good food, genuine Italian hospitality and a concept of sharing with friends and family."

"Set in the thick of all the fun on George IV Bridge, Cucina is a firecracker of a restaurant. The hypnotic palette of colours of the fashion-forward furnishings are just as mesmerising as the impeccable menu. Thoughtful, perfectly constructed dishes play host to classic Italian recipes with contemporary flair, resulting in a gastronomic adventure."

"As its name suggests, Edinburgh Food Studio, located on a nondescript road a short cab ride from central Edinburgh, is the city's apex for gastronomes. Although it's a bona fide restaurant, EFS has the hum, chatter, and excitement of a pop-up. James Murray, the chef, and Ben Reade and Sashana Souza Zanella, the young, supremely knowledgable founders, sometimes appear to chat about ingredients and dishes."

"Far from the city centre throng, Edinburgh Food Studio is a tiny unassuming restaurant and ‘food research hub’ dishing up some of the most creative, nerdy and – fear not – delicious cuisine in the capital."

"Borough has open its doors for the first time in the foodie neighbourhood of Leith. A modern European menu of bold, precise flavours is spearheaded by Head Chef Darren Murray, formerly of award-winning restaurant, Norn. Dishes include appetisers, such as charcuterie, and a selection of savoury and sweet plates such as Courgette Tart with Nasturtium and Mackerel Tartare with Green Strawberry and Elderflower."

"This modern bistro, which has chef Darren Murray at the helm, places a focus on sustainable and environmentally responsible food. This, coupled with Borough’s chilled-out atmosphere and expertly sourced local produce, makes the four-course set menu all the more special. Expect dishes like cured Borders lamb and roast North Sea hake, plus a fantastic selection of wines."

"It was established during the seventeenth century and was the main parish church in Edinburgh from 1648 until 1952. It was named “Tron Church” because the temple was located beside a weighing beam (tron in Scots), which was normally used in the town's marketplaces, one of which was on the Royal Mile. In 1824 a great fire destroyed the bell tower, but it was reconstructed so well that visitors will hardly notice that it was built two hundred years later."

"Image SourceThe market is an ideal place in Edinburgh to explore shops from leading-edge designers to fashion origins. The market is filled with designers, artists, and individuals selling crafts and classy clothes. Take a look for designer hats at Fabhatrix and Mr. Wood’s Fossils and if what you are looking for are old trend hats then Armstrong’s is the place to be."

"Locations don't come more iconic than Newhaven Pier but thankfully the reputations of the team behind The Fishmarket are big enough to match. Roy Brett of Ondine fame and Gary Welch, owner of Welch Fishmongers, are the pair who've decided to take on the task of making this place one of the best in the capital to get seafood and boy are they doing a good job of it. Gaby was massively impressed by the popular new venture, loving the delicious seafood and describing the fish and chips here as the "best in Edinburgh"."

"One of the most famous fish and chip shops in Edinburgh, it's no surprise that orders have been flooding in for The Fishmarket. From your classic battered sausage to slightly fancier seafood, the site has been hard at work keeping up with locals' cravings. But what dish took the top spot do you ask?"

"Emerald tiles and brass fittings reflect the Victorian heritage of this building on Newhaven harbour where the view of fishing boats and the Forth bridges gets the juices flowing for freshly cooked fish & chips to eat in or take away."

"(Score: 90%, address: 102 Constitution St, Edinburgh EH6 6AW). There was always going to be at least one steakhouse on this list and in Leith's Chophouse, which opened its doors on Constitution Street in 2015, Gaby Soutar found her winner. Offering up to 90 day dry-aged cuts of British beef,  Gaby described the rib-eye as a cross-hatched beauty that was "almost as soft as fillet” as well as praising the seafood dishes like the monkfish scampi and lobster bisque."

"Leith Chop House is a stylish restaurant in Leith which above all sets out to be the capital's best steakhouse. The interior is chic but relaxed with some lovely design features, such as the large glass dividers offering a view of the open grill. The menu is packed with delicious carnivorous offerings, but also manages to do enough to welcome lovers of seafood and vegetarians."

"The Pantry’s Finn & Bear has settled in nicely in Leith, we’ve already lost count of the number of brunches we’ve consumed (possibly connected to the number of Bloody Marys that seem to accompany our early morning feasts). In The Pantry’s Stockbridge restaurant, you can tuck into Sunshine in Stockbridge – it’s only fitting that there should be a Sunshine on Leith too. We proclaim this to be one of Leith’s (possibly Edinburgh’s) Best Brunches!"

"A distinctive element at this restaurant is the hearty and enticing meals they serve from breakfast, lunch, and dinner that fit into what most kids desire. Each meal is prepared by professionals meeting excellent standards to serve fresh, tasty and clean food to you and your kids. An outdoor setting is also available to meet the needs of the family that prefer such an environment."

"A post shared by Finn & Bear (@finn.and.bear) on Feb 25, 2019 at 5:30am PST. Finn & Bear located on the Shore next to Toast is also open 7 days a week serving lunch, brunch, and dinner. It has a rustic interior with wooden floors and reclaimed furniture and an outside waterside seating area which makes it a popular location all year round."
