Makars Gourmet Mash (west End)

Lovely food and great atmosphere and service was brillant . Would eat there again

Great food, but ssrvice poor. An hour wait and the restaurant was so HOT. When it finally arrived the food was very tasty

The food and service were excellent. We were attended to by Calli, who was very courteous and efficient. She even made me a cup of coffee despite having an injury.

This was our second visit to Edinburgh this year, and we knew we had to go back to Makars. Once again, we were impressed by the delicious food and top-notch service.

That was the best food I've ever eaten! Definitely recommend and so well retrieved that this place only in Edinburgh! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Beautiful atmosphere with music. The food was served quickly and was delicious!

Table was sticky, the furniture very worn and broken. Food was meh! Their flavored mashes all tasted the same. Most disappointing dinner we had in Edinburgh. Maybe the location closer to the castle might be better, but we are not trying it! Very uninspired dinner.......

During our short visit to town, we thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food at Makar's, especially the lamb and traditional smoked sausage! The meal ended perfectly with the sticky toffee pudding - so yummy. The restaurant was quiet with only a few guests, making the noise level low. Our server, Ella, was extremely friendly and efficient. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better dining experience.

I booked a table here according to other reviews. I'm so glad I did. We're here 15 minutes early, but our table was ready and waiting. We were greeted by the staff who were so smiling and friendly. There were a number of food available... I wanted to try everything, but set up for the lamb, and my son ordered the Haggis. When the food arrived, it was hot and so delicious. It was also very filled. I wanted to try a pudding, but I could just fit one. We will definitely return here when we return to Edinburgh. I would definitely recommend people here who are after a delicious, piping hot, satisfying meal in a quiet, relaxed and friendly environment.

Was visiting for the Tattoo (which was amazing! and booked a table here online having read rave reviews. And they were right! Both food and service were spot on (thanks Ola snd Callie . The menu is simple, kind of pick and mix. Between us we had haggis and vegetarian haggis with a mixture of wholegrain mustard mash and cheese and chive mash. It was all fabulous! Beautifully presented, fragrant and yummy!!! Checked out food going to other diners (like you do and want to come back to work our way through the menu : Had a really nice, relaxed atmosphere too, and we weren't rushed away when done. Don't be put off by the shuttered exterior during the day this is a hidden gem! Would highly recomme...
