Amber Restaurant At The Scotch Whisky Experience

We went here on a freezing day, after spending hours exploring the castle! They have a phenomenal selection of whiskeys, the food is mouth watering and flavoursome! We got to try a lot of things- The trout, stovies, chef’s selection of Tapas and the soup of the day! I recommend reserving a table in advance online, it’s a busy place and they often donot have walk-ins available! It was such a heart warming meal, the service was great we ordered some hot water for the table and we were given a pot free of charge! We also ordered some winter warmers and the bar obliged to make us some even when they were not lister on the menu!

We went for a whiskey tasting experience. The staff were very kind and polite. We also ordered a chef's selection of Scottish tapas. It was amazing. The tasting flight was really good. Actually bought one of them from the duty free. If you want a lovely (and classy) tasting experience, highly recommended.

As a novice to Scotch, I appreciate the bar tenders approach. He asked what flavors I liked, and he didn't miss a beat when I told him I didn't know. He suggested one of each and then confirmed the price range that I was comfortable with. He walked me through the drip process, and his suggestions were fantastic. Thank you for the great introduction to Scotch!

We bought the most expensive tour on its website for 90 pounds. It was worthwhile. The guide taught us how to distinguish whiskey’s flavor, color, smell, and taste. At the end of the tour, we had a dinner at Amber Restaurant. The food is delicious! Overall, we had a pleasant night at Scottish whiskey experience in Edinburgh.

Decent food and excellent service at a restaurant right below the entrance to Edinburgh Castle. We went during lunch hours expecting higher prices considering the increased foot traffic of this location, but we were pleasantly by the overall moderate prices and variety on the menu. Our food was decent; the beef in our beef casserole was extremely tough, but the flavour was there, and dishes like the salmon and chive cream cheese sandwich left something to be desired. Overall, a good experience, although there are better places for moderate prices outside this touristy zone of Edinburgh.

A true whisky experience and culinary delight! They have it all - 100+ whiskeys from all over Scotland and an impressive yet small menu that is sure to please both adventurous and tame palettes. Try a flight of regoinal whiskys! They have the experts who can steer you to something wonderful. I tried the chicken wrapped haggis and it was rich and scrumptous! If you are anywhere near the top of the "Royal Mile", it's a must stop occasion.
