"We visited the restaurant for our 10th wedding anniversary dinner based upon good previous reviews on tripadvisor The staff were pleasant and helpful, but the service was slow. The standard of the food in terms of both presentation and flavour was poor. There was a limited menu available because of covid, which was understandable. However, the full normal menu was on the website when the booking was made and even though we called ahead on the day, we were not made aware of the change to a limited menu, so we were immediately disappointed on arrival. The choices available were laughably basic and boring. It was our 10th wedding anniversary after all so you will understand how we felt. For example, the starter menu was basically a vegetable soup, or smoked salmon or a slab of what looked like supermarket pate served with some mixed salad and a couple of oatcakes. Basically nothing that required any preparation or cooking whatsoever, like something you might have on a picnic perhaps. Then we ordered chateaubriand for main course which per the website should have been cooked on a josper grill and served with hand cooked chips etc. What we actually got was a cold slab of poorly cooked pan fried meat with a couple of small mushrooms, some hard carrots with dried parsley on top, half an unripe tomato and some poorly cooked cold frozen chips. They did knock some money off the bill (the chateaubriand supplement) as they could see the disappointment in our faces and were apologetic about the standard. There were excuses made relating to covid, but we are aware from friend's and our own experiences, that many other restaurants in Edinburgh are operating just fine so if Blackwoods can't meet it's own standards it should remain closed until it can."

We received a very warm greeting and were offered a choice of table in this very attractive setting. The food was very tasty and innovative and the service warm and efficient.

I planned this reservation for a business meeting, and I got an email less than 2 hours before that my reservation, previously confirmed, was canceled without explanation or apologies. Totally unacceptable

Last night Blackstone’s served up a nice dinner for the two of us. We ordered grilled salmon along with salad sides and a side of sweet potato fries. Nice to have the opportunity to taste grilled North Sea salmon in Scotland. This was delicious. Service was excellent.

I had the citrus rubbed salmon which was cooked just as I asked. I forget what I had as an appetizer but I remember it was very good. I had the Cranachan, a traditional Scottish desert with cream and raspberries. It was light and not to heavy, which was great for a dinner dessert. The service was excellent.

Together with my mother (87 I (54 had a very good diner. We had very nice local ingredients who were perfectly prepared. As starters the nussels (a la muniere and the mushrooms. As main the salmon and the cod accompanied by grilled vegerables an a blackwood salad. A special thank you for the advice to drink the italian chardonnay from puglia, it was very nice

Blackwoods is the hotel restaurant at the Nira Caledonia, where we happened to be staying for a night, so we ate there almost by chance. Two of the four of us were vegetarians, so that sets a high bar, but the food was excellent. A few bites into my main course, which was a citron salmon dish, I found myself thinking, This is the best meal I 've had in a long time. The starters, the mains, and the desserts—we had banoffee were all scrumptious. And my friend loved their special scotch. This is a place to go for a special occasion: you won 't be disappointed!
