Service pretty sad at least from the young lady we had, seemed to forget us and disappeared at the end altogether (I think) to have her own dinner. As to food, I rather enjoyed the dough balls we had as appetizer and the fish and chips were decent. My wife thought her "katsu" - breaded chicken on a bao bun would have been better if the chicken was not breaded to give more taste. The salted caramel cake we had for dessert was, however, delicious. So a decent meal but - as my school reports used to say - could do better!

The upstairs dining room (bar side) is absolutely charming and welcoming, and the staff could not have been better, or friendlier. The food? Come ON! Really grand! We started with the chips and dip (fries with Sriracha Mayo) - they were crisp and the mayo was just spicy enough. My husband had a sizeable portion of fish and chips, which was perfectly cooked, and had a light batter. I had the most delicious burger, with bacon and cheddar; mash on the side. All the food was hot; well seasoned; and quickly served. The Doric has their own GF beer on draft, which is quite good, and a selection of regular beer for those of you who don't need GF. Great selection of scotch, as well. Make your reservation ahead of time, and don't miss the oldest pub in Edinburgh!

The price is very reasonable, the service is friendly and quick, and the food is really, good. On Sundays, they fluctuate between serving beef or pork for the roast (which starts at noon, not when they open); I luckily came for the week they served beef. The roast itself was tender, the sides within the entree - veggies, roasted potatoes, skirlie and Yorkshire pudding - complemented the meat and each other seamlessly, and the meal overall was hearty and flavorfully rich, but not salty. I also ordered pigs-in-a-blanket and brussel sprouts for additional sides, and while overkill (meaning I didn't need them to make me full), werr very good appetizers; I had to make sure not to finish them, or else I would have been too full for the meal. For drinks, I got a Mezcal Negroni that was strong but delicious. The clean, lovely restaurant was sparse when I came in at noon, but was picking up by the time I left around 1:15p. I would love to go back when I'm in the area.

It was a bit cold and drizzly so we were glad to be inside. It is cozy. The menu consists of about 10 dishes I would say. Ordered the 8oz. steak with garlic butter, with mushroom/tomato and chips as sides. Also ordered green beans. Also added on Cullen skink. Kids had gnocchi. Being a thin steak the cook ranged from medium well to medium rare in parts. Not like steak back in the states. I would say beef flavor came through but not enough seasoning. The vegetables and chips were very good. The Cullen skink was more stewy than soupy also it was locally made, this recipe had dill pickle bits in it. I thought it was good. I love how they love bread and butter in this country. The gnocchi was okay. Again just different from rye U.S. Service friendly and welcoming.
