"We are American tourists and decided to eat here because it was on the way back to our apartment and away from the crowds on Princess Street. When we made the reservation there was nothing in the description to indicate it was a wine bar. I mention this because I wanted a vodka martini dirty and the waitress didn’t know what that was. In addition the bar did not have olives. What I received was adequate, hence the 3 stars, but it soon became clear wine was the main feature in the bar menu. As for the food, the place was tiny, seating for maybe 20. The menu was limited but had many Scottish options. The fish and chips were good and portions large. The rump steak was small and tough as shoe leather unfortunately. All in all, the WestRoom is just okay. It’s saving grace is the modern atmosphere and distance from tourists, but there are better options in in Edinburgh."
