    First class service , waiter so attentive. Our chateaubriand was tepid and it turned cold Very quickly which I don’t expect for the price. Waiter took £10 off which was a nice gesture however for the price and how cold it was I would’ve expected a little more off it. Everything else as first class however to serve £75 worth of food cold I am sorry is not worth the money

    We were very disappointed with our seating as it was right beside one of the main entrance doors therefore it was incredibly cold when people entered or left . The party was mixed regarding the food however I have to say my choices were very nice . I also would have expected the staff to draw our attention to the service charge - we would have had no hesitation to leave a reasonable tip however we ended up leaving approx £ 70 - my husband realised this the next morning when we looked over the bill. Simple things however would have made it a totally different dining experience. I am going to say I would not recommend Hawksmoor as there is not option to expand reason - I would but would have to make sure they were very specific when booking etc

    Overrated and overpriced. We love a steak dinner and have previously had an amazing experience at Hawksmoor in London. Thinking it would be similar we visited in Edinburgh. The food wasn’t bad, but mediocre at best and at £40 a steak (without sides) we expected a lot more. Service was adequate. Previously in London we had waiting staff who were very attentive and helpful with explaining the menu and options. To be honest we just felt mostly abandoned, with no one offering suggestions or discussing what we may like. It was no better than sitting in a Frankie and bennys.

    Excellent starter in lunch menu and sundae pudding but steak was awful. Just a brick of beef, hard on the outside and tough. Not a steak!! Wine Vg but quite expensive. Service great.

    I took my wife to Hawksmoor Edinburgh for her Birthday with my son last night (29th November) and it was exceptional in every way. The food was of course delicious but the staff were the stars of the night. Unbelievably friendly professional and helpful. It’s the best service I have had in years and we eat out regularly in London. The restaurant manager who greeted up was incredibly impressive and one of the nicest people we have met in a long time. Outstanding

    The staff at this location are so friendly! Really welcoming and sweet as I booked a solo dinner to celebrate my birthday. This is probably my favourite Hawksmoor venue; its tall ceiling and massive dining area is beautiful. Also just the overall atmosphere was nice. I think I’ll deffo visit there again when I go back to Edinburgh. Food was 10/10 as always. I got the rump steak with stuffing and mash and gravy. Also had their single malt whiskey on the side which was nice and tasty with a sweet spice.

    Came here for our anniversary meal. We always try different steak restaurants each year. This has been tte best in 8 years. Every course was phenomenal. I had carpaccio - so flavourful and tender. My wife had the pork belly ribs and they were so moist and full of flavour. We each had a ribeye, she had a peppercorn sauce (best I've ever tasted), and I got the blue verbalise - phenomenal - added so much to our already delicious steaks. We had sprouts and sausage, mash and gravy and chips as sides and everyone loved up to the high standard. Our servers were all lovely, they were so warm and welcoming and the restaurant has a delightful buzz. I cannot fault anything and I honestly cannot open ait to go back. Worth every penny. Don't just book this - run to it. Beautiful

    Superb food and drink and the staff were exceptional. It was very busy, so we couldn't have a drink at the bar before being seated. We were told that the bar was currently taken up by drinkers, not diners. Personally, on a night so busy, I would expect that diners take priority and the bar be exclusively available to them. Other than the one minor issue, it was a sensational meal.

    We had a wonderful meal last night for my sons 30th Birthday. The architecture is beautiful. The waiter was attentive without being intrusive, also very informative. The food was amazing, I had langoustine scampi for starters which was well cooked. For mains I had monkfish which was outstanding. Others in our party had steak, comments were 'it was the best they had ever had' Clotted cream ice cream for dessert was amazing
