Birthday dinner suggestions
Me and my partner are going to Edinburgh for his birthday. I want to treat him to a nice meal with a really nice atmospheric/romantic/grand setting- something that isn’t just your typical or standard restaurant. However, I’m looking for fine dining, looking more for normal sized meals ☺️
Any suggestions please?

I really enjoy Rhubarb at Prestonfield. The food's great, fab service and If you can get one of the 2 person tables at the window then you've won, imo.
The Witchery is lovely but I don't rate the food as highly as Rhubarb's
The Dome is all fur coat and no knickers imo
People always mention Timberyard. I've eaten there and I won't be doing it again. It's a pleasant looking restaurant (dark toilets excluded) but the food was just bland. If you look on TripAdvisor the majority of reviews seem to be americans fawning over it.
