Howies Waterloo Place

a beautiful, airy, impressive dining room that is still very intimate with quality, imaginative, tasty eating.

We had an excellent time at our Dinner on Saturday. The food was excellent and the service was great. I would definitely recommend this restaurant (and have already) and will most certainly return.

A friendly good value restaurant at the east end of Princes Street in Waterloo Place . Extensive well priced menu well cooked and presented by attentive staff . BYOB at £4.50 per bottle glasses coolers provided .

Well worth a visit here! Very friendly staff and good service. The food was very good! The elegant clean restrooms are a plus! Loved the refreshing fizzy lemonade! Loved the vegetarian flatbread with mint yogurt, vegetables, and couscous!

A bright and airy restaurant but tables are very close to each other, I constantly had to move my chair to allow people to pass... Service was prompt and food was fresh, piping hot and tasty, Would consider going back in a larger group as there is a lovely atmospheric feel to the place

Had graduation lunch which was advertised at 20 GBP/person but initially charged 30 GBP/person. Was further overcharged by adding the full price of steaks on top of that 30 GDP/person, however, eventually got refunded for that mistake. Food was overpriced. Wouldn't recommend the place for any special occasions. Staff was friendly.

First time at Howies and first impressions were that it was a lovely setting. All staff were friendly and attentive. The lunch menu had plenty choice and was worth the money and affordable.

They were able to seat us a little earlier than our reservation and the food was way beyond expectations. We had the fresh baked breads and the house mix olives and humous. For an appetizer we shared the Scottish Calamari with Asian lime and lemongrass sauce. This was prepared the way I prefer, thin cut, lightly done with an interesting dipping sauce. It was very good, so I ordered another. We had brown trout (2), roast rump of Scotch lamb, and a super salad. All the meals were good. We split some dessert...

We went to Howie 's for the second time last Sunday, after I ran the Edinburgh marathon. Having eaten there once before and really enjoyed it, I purposely selected Howie 's as the place I wanted to go to after the race. The restaurant is in a fab location and the building premises are really inspiring. The food was excellent! I 'm gluten-free and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We started with traditional foods: I had the cullen skink and my husband had the haggis, needs and tatties. He also had half lobster for the main course and that looked really delicious. We didn 't get round to dessert because we were really full. My husband had also bought a special bottle of champagne to...
