"I am a regular at the White Horse, have been coming for years and left a good review last year. I booked an early table 5pm on New Years Eve with my family and shortly found out that things have changed for the worst. To start with, we were told that were no Seafood Platters which is the main part of the menu. This is the reason why we booked a table here as my kids love them. We then ordered from the small plates menu. The Sourdough Bread £2.50 per slice with smoked garlic was burned. The Straw Fries were soggy some were drooping over the bowl . When the Octopus arrived, one was a good size and the other was tiny. I then had to quickly cut them up and redistribute resize to my kids before they realised that one dish had been short changed. The tempura broccoli was a big tree like sprig with no tempura. There was no quality control in the kitchen and it seemed they were throwing anything on the plate. When the wine arrived, it was a different bottle to the one I ordered as they had run out. When it was dessert time, my youngest ordered Apple Pie they had run out. She then ordered the Lemon Curd Custard that had also run out. There was only 1 dessert left on the menu Chocolate Mousse . The menu I was given was dirty with food stuck on it and the hallway downstairs to the toilets was smelly with a door open to a grubby utility room. I 'd accept all of the above if I had gone to a pub with pub prices not a Chic Eatery with the prices to match £125 per head. I knew something had changed and after googling before writing this review found The White Horse was sold to someone new a few months ago. New Years Eve I appreciate is busy but to have most of the menu off at 5pm is poor and shows a lack of planning especially as the menu is small anyway. From other reviews it seems I got away lightly compared to others who had a nightmare at the main 8pm sitting. If you want to keep your regular customers, you really need to step up your game. Unfortunately I don 't think I 'll come back again. It was good whilst it lasted :"

Everything was fine. Best place eating in Edinburgh. Try this place ! After 3 days advised by concierge of best hotel, it’s a nice surprise. A gourmet lover.

Everything was mediocre to say the least. Oysters were not bad but completely mangled by whoever opened them. Slapdash service, burnt bread, burnt steak, sticky plates and glasses….give it a miss.

The best sea food in town. Casual dining in an old pub building. Tapas style and absolutely delicious. And the staff are lovely friendly and helpful. [Hats off to Helga! . And the oysters are to die for! Voir le carte

Absolutely smashing, plates of posters, monkfish, Scallops and lobster. Glass of champagne, ice cold guiness and watching the world go by. Some of the best seafood we've eaten in a long while, not sure where other people are reviewing with their negativity. Go somewhere else, saves space for people who want to have a nice time. Friendly and efficient service without any pretentiousness . Thanks to all xxx

Great gastronomical experience. I’ve visited this restaurant with my husband and my baby. We enjoyed every single dish, specially the oysters, they were fresh and tasty! We also tried different cocktails, they were really good. The waiters gave nice recommendations and took really good care of us. I would totally recommend this place if you visit Edinburgh city Centre. 5 stars to the Staff, Food and service. Voir le carte

So disappointed. The Lindisfarne oysters were sublime, and shucked well. The first dishes thereafter were stone cold. The octopus was awful. We literally couldn't cut it with a knife, it was so tough. We left it. We weren't asked about it when the staff took away the plate. Hassel back potatoes were basically just boiled potatoes. Not crispy. Potentially microwaved as they were unusually hot. The monkfish satay was delicious. The lobster tempura was dry and we were still chewing it after a couple of minutes. I'm not exaggerating. We weren't asked once how the meal/food was. Not even when paying. Really odd. I'm not one to moan in my reviews, but this experience was not good.

My fiancé and I had the most amazing dinner here for my 40th birthday. We had been here before a few years ago and the food was delicious and at the time we didn’t think the food or service could’ve been any better until we visited last night. We were welcomed in and looked after by Alex she was very knowledgeable and passionate, she really did look after us. We were informed that the restaurant had recently hired a whole new team, what ever they are doing it’s working, the front of house staff were all so friendly and welcoming and the chefs are creating the most delicious fresh beautiful seafood, it was easily the best meal we have had in a long time and we can’t wait to come back when we...
