This fun venue by the Botanical Gardens “continues to be inventive with its pan-Asian fusion”, using mainly Scottish produce. “Fish dishes are made to order and brought to your table fresh from the kitchen”. Success has led to a second in Edinburgh’s St James’s Quarter.

The “fresh, vibrant, exciting” flavours of Southeast Asia, using mainly Scottish produce, attract custom to this “superb venue” in the Botanical Gardens . Guests are “well looked after by staff”, and the prices are attractive. A second branch opened last year in the St James Quarter of Edinburgh.

Pan-Southeast Asian sharing dishes are on the menu at this Botanical Gardens spot that makes good use of Scotland’s natural larder with mashups such as ‘jungle curry of Shetland mussels and Ramiro pepper’. On limited feedback, the cooking is very highly rated. A sibling venue is scheduled to open this year in Edinburgh.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
