"beautiful little restaurant was pleasantly surprised to see as many people eating here at a middle week night, which shows how popular this place is. we chose the house: lasagne, garlic bread and a mixed salad. all very tasty, and all. homemade and fresh. we don't mind waiting for the food, that wasn't so long in serving anyway, because it was really delicious and not just warmed up again. kellnerin was friendly and attentive. would recommend it absolutely."

Dropped in for a late lunch on a Sunday walk around the Southside, very impressed with the food and service, with a good half bottle of Sardinian vermintino complementing a textbook spaghetti alla vongole.

We are Edinburgh locals, living in Newington. And have been eating here since they opened quite a few years ago. We have enjoyed every meal we have ever eaten here, and enjoyed the lovely wines and the excellent service provided. A Sardinian husband (chef) and...wife (front of house). A dream team. I’d highly recommend a visit. Enjoy.

Sardinian wine tasting and excellent food ... fish is a delicacy ... Unlike many restaurants where the fish is frozen, the food is precooked ..., here you can taste homemade delicacies including desserts. .. It seems to be in Italy ... Excellent Sardinian restaurant...in the center of Edinburgh .... If you haven't been there, try it!

We had chosen to go somewhere else but found it closed down. So glad it had because I doubt it would have been as good as Isola. One busy lady taking the orders and advising on what was offered on the menu. We had between...us mussels, sea bass , pasta , and a divine warm strawberry sauce with ginger ice cream. Excellent service and perfect food.

I went there last night and service, quality of food and taste was delicious. We had a vegetarian pasta dish for starters just really, really tasty and then the fish platter for two. To be honest I felt as if I was Sardinia as the...food tasted authentic. The Sardinian wine was good to. The waitress was attentive to needs and very helpful. Excellent place to eat out.

"new kapitel has caught my attention after I was on top ten on trip advisor only months after the opening in the oktober last year. that and the fact that it is open for my early january birthday, made it the perfect place to celebrate to become a little older. I was with the man and his family. the man is quite used to my taste and good to the kind of kitchen that would appeal to me for a special occasion; his family not so much and I was filled with shame as his mother scornful went through the menu trying to find something she would enjoy. I've eaten with the family of the man, and I know they enjoy eating, so I think it's a failure of the menu that it is not accessible. the benming always blooming and garnish can appeal to some, but for others it is overcomplicated and it is necessary to find a balance between the two. we start with the starters and I go for venison sour wort pithvier. the venison was underheated and incredibly dry, to the happiness the sourded a little moisturizing and so saved the whole dish, but the aromen were quite not clear, except the garnitur of plastered mushrooms I thoroughly enjoyed. for the largest part we chose a fish dish for our main,- sea trout, smoked muddles, petersilien and coast herbs. where the starter fell, the main recording is getting back. the dish is rich and creamy, and each element adds the complexity of the taste as a whole, without disturbing. the concept is now an old one, and it would be deceptive if it had not worked, as it would essentially pay with this place. I enjoyed my meal in new chapter, although I do not agree with it is stellar status under the hierarchy of edinburgh eateries. it is top ten position is just a flash in the pan of hot popularity, and in time it will be plated in the upper half of the middle stage where it belongs. and that is where it belongs, the dishes can be plated with a michelin star in understood, and the venue and the supporting media has the clean lines and empty slate look of fine but eat the team has a long gone to go if that is their real aim. at the end, although it was a beautiful meal, and cheap (at the moment I would not be surprised to see their prices slowly rise) and the man’s mother found something they enjoyed and that is the most important."
