The restaurant is beautiful, the whole room is full of character with lots of tables but plenty of privacy. The staff are very helpful and very friendly. Our waitress was particularly knowledgeable about the menu offering advice but also asking questions about food we liked and disliked to enable us to make a proper choice. The food arrived just at an appropriate time, not too long but not too quickly either. The waiter who delivered the food to our table knew who was eating what without having to ask us. The wine and the water was kept regularly topped up without us asking. It was our anniversary and our son had arranged champagne for the table. My dessert had Happy Anniversary written in chocolate which was a nice touch too.

Service fabulous and food delicious, will return. We had the scampi to start and the porter house steak 700g to share with sides of creamy spinach and triple cooked chips. Clean plates, no complaints cooked to perfection.

It was my husbands 50th and we were made to feel special. There was no hurry for us to choose, the staff were incredibly attentive without being overbearing and when it was time for dessert the whole restaurant sang. It made his day! I missed that service was included so added a tip and the server pointed out that we were being too generous. Testament to the quality of the restaurant. Food was sublime as always. Fantastic experience, you should be proud of your staff.

We sat in the back section and the staff were setting up for a wedding all around us. We had gone for a birthday celebration and this spoiled the ambiance of the place. The steak was very good but the sides were just average, nothing special at all. Drinks are expensive, £7+ for a CAN of beer! That’s a rip off. Service was good and attentive.

Hawksmoor was wonderful. The building they were housed in was a former financial building with a rendering on the back of the menu of the building plan. I had the ribeye and my husband the filet. Meat seasoned just right and the coal fire they were cooked on added to the wonderful experience. My husband had a Cesar salad and mashed potatoes and gravy, all excellent. I had the creamed spinach,best I ever had. Wine list was extensive and the glass I had was a rose and very good. To top the meal off we had a peanut butter shortbread with ice cream. Cookie was warm, soft and had a strong peanut butter taste. This could possible have been the best dessert I have ever eaten. Highly recommend Hawksmoor.

We had the Sunday Roast and we were not disappointed! Both of us being Americans who had never had it before, we weren't totally sure what to expect, but now I wish I could have it every week! I highly recommend getting the stuffing as a side dish--it is the best stuffing you will ever have.

I get to Edinburgh once a year from the States and look forward to Sunday roast at Hawksmoor. I spent 10 days in and around Edinburgh this year which meant I was able to have Sunday lunch at Hawksmoor twice. Sunday roast is not something we get here in the States so it is a treat when I am in Edinburgh or London (I have not been up to New York to try the offerings in the NYC location). With that background, I will say as I have in the past that I am delighted and amazed that the food and service is always excellent. The beef is perfectly done, good flavor and tender. Love the sides which vary by season which is great. I tried the Caesar salad this time and was very glad I did. And the pavlova was a perfect end to the meal. And the Rioja was perfect with the meal. I'm a solo traveler and have found that service can be spotty when you are eating alone but that has never been the case at any Hawksmoor location including Edinburgh. I find the movement of the staff to be almost like theater. Great food and perfect service. Thanks to all the staff!!
