    My wife and I dined in the restaurant last Sunday, for the first time, although we had eaten many times at Leith Fishers. we weren't disappointed, being seafood fans and unlike a lot of "seafood" restauarants, we found the food to be perfectly cooked and ver tasty. If we had one complaint, it was that the seafood platter was a tad generous with the garlic butter as eg the mussels were drenched i it, but all in all, a lovely place to eat.

    Great night. Shellfish is always fantastic! Thoroughly enjoyed scallops, surf n turf and the homemade bread to go with it.

    Back to Fishers again for the set price lunch. Just can't find anything bad to say about this place. Would recommend it to anyone.

    What else do you eat at Fish! The grilled salmon in curry sauce with jasmine rice was absolutely brilliant. The other fish dish my date has was also fish and one differently tasted yummy as well. Dessert of pudding and sorbet was a great way to finish off the meal. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and strongly recommend if you enjoy fish.

    Another good lunch at Fishers in the City. The special menu (£16 for three courses from a limited menu) is excellent value. Service was welcoming and the food was of a high standard.
