Exceptional staff who were bright and attentive. Food was good basic pub food fare. Portions were huge . Modern surroundings which could be a bit noisy when the restaurant is busy . Good view of Grassmarket and castle from our window table.

We had a reservation and requested a window seat but the place was very busy when we arrived so we were seated on the lower level.
Shortly the manager came along and moved us to a window seat and brought a complimentary wine. The service was excellent and the food was perfect.
