Best Casual Restaurants in Edinburgh

Great service and staff, especially the gentleman from Moldova (sorry can’t remember your name, effect of the hauf’n’hauf’s) knew all about champagne’s available. Great food too. Well worth a visit.

Cold town house rooftop bar is beautiful and gave holiday chill vibes. The staff where extremely busy but lovely and gave a good service. I didn't manage to try the food as after only 2 hours we were asked to leave due to another booking slot. I felt 2 hours for a party of 6 to eat and drink was not long energy and usually a booking would be at least 3 hours. I had tried to phone ahead of the booking to query the amount of time and make drink arrangements as it was a snall hen party.,but you cannot speak to anyone and the voicemail is full. If I had of known the booking slots are 2 hours only. I would have requested a double booking and been happy to organise a drink package etc if required to secure. I will definitely go back, I jst felt for a larger party it was a shame to have to leave so early and before food. I gave a 5 star rating for food based on other guests food looking and smelling great.

Seated and served quickly. The Mussels were amazing!

As someone coming from the USA with ample access to Mexican food, I was excited to try Mezcal as it is very close to my University. The staff were amazing. Incredibly friendly and happy to help us with whatever we needed. The food was hot, full of flavor, great portion sizes, and served quickly. Drinks were delicious! We really enjoyed the margaritas as well as the Hibiscus Old Fashioned. I ordered the Chicken Tinga Quesadilla, and I will definitely be back for another! The proportions of cheese and chicken were perfect. We ordered a side of the rice and unfortunately were a bit disappointed. It was lacking the tomato and spices that usually give Mexican Rice its delicious flavor. While It was nice to add to our entrees, it was not flavorful enough to eat on its own. One thing that I would love to see added to the menu is salsa. The chips and pico were good, but it would have been really nice to have salsa to eat with our entrees. My friend and I ordered sides of pico to eat with our quesadillas and not only was it not the salsa replacement we were looking for, the price of £4 for a side of pico de gallo seemed a bit overpriced. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal at Mezcal and I will definitely be back. Given how new the restaurant is, I am sure that things will only continue to grow and get better over time. I can't wait to see what the future holds!

Visited on Saturday evening and great atmosphere in the place. All the staff were very friendly and happy to help at all times. Food was fantastic!! Would highly recommend the battery mars bar! Delicious
