"I am glad I did not read the reviews before visiting, since my experience is at odds to many of them. Firstly I have to say that the all of food was really good. Nachos to start were plentiful, great tasting salsa, loads of guacamole, sour cream and jalapeños. We particularly liked the fact they had a double layer of cheese through the tortilla chips. Only complaint was there was too much! Mains were a bacon and Brie burger, pancake stack and Philly cheese steak. Burger was big, juicy and well filled with stuff. Bacon could have been crispier but all was tasty. Excellent and hot fries. Pancakes were plentiful so some came home. The streaky bacon really would have benefitted from being cooked for longer. It felt a bit soggy but tasted ok. I always think streaky bacon is best dry snd crispy so the fat has been reduced. Lastly was the Philly cheese steak. No gristle in ours. Lots of meat, tasty sauce, melted onions etc. It was lush. No room for puds. We took a chance on coffee and it went far better than expected. Nicely made strong coffee that was well up to the mark. Huge picture windows look out across a sunny Edinburgh Park, but nice still. If you know Edinburgh, it’s in a bit of a strange area, but loads of parking and the greenery and tram-watching makes up for that. Not overly clear who the clients for an American sports bar in this area are, but there was s steady stream of customers whilst we were there. It’s a cavernous space with a large bar and tables seemingly spread around ‘the edge’. Sports on multiple screens and loud music mean it is a bit noisy, but that is the point I guess. Staffing and management of them was a bit of an issue. Waiters were all lovely when they came, (and effusively apologetic when they forgot to bring the bill), but given the place wasn’t overly busy, it bordered on the inattentive. So perhaps a bit of work on team management and maintaining the food quality we enjoyed on Saturday afternoon and it could be a great place."

Popped for lunch with colleague. Great food and comfortable seats! Very much styled as US Diner with TVs showing sport in background. We agreed we were impressed.

This restaurant deserves a perfect 10 out of 10 for its amazing food, excellent ambiance, and friendly staff. We would definitely return to Edinburgh just to dine here again.

This place is amazing! It has an American diner style and serves delicious food. They have a great deal on pizza every Wednesday. The homemade sunflower ice cream is outstanding! I highly recommend this restaurant.

The atmosphere at this restaurant is lovely. The chicken salad was delicious, but the burger was just average and could use some improvement. The menu offers a variety of options including burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, salads, and fries.

Food was lovely, took a while to come but very hot and fresh which was worth the wait, delicious service was good and staff lovely, we were seated at the window with glass roof which did get quite hot when the sun came out so only gripe really as no open windows but muggy day, definitely go back again, nice relaxing atmosphere, clean and tidy. Worth a visit and seated area outside too!

Had a really enjoyable lunch. Really nice, big place, very clean. Was able to sit outside as it was a sunny day...nice area to sit in. The food was tasty and we felt for the two mains and bottle of wine we had it was good value for money. Was quite quiet for a Saturday which is a shame, but we were there at 12 so may have got busier as the day went on. I'd recommend it for anyone who's in the area and looking for a tasty bite to eat and drink.

I waited for 45 minutes for 2 pizzas at this restaurant, only to be told at the bar that they were having till problems and had not kept track of all the orders, including mine. The staff made no effort to inform customers or apologize for the delay, despite the fact that the restaurant was not busy. They offered me a 10% discount and promised to prioritize my order, but given the circumstances, this was not sufficient. I had my 6-month-old child with me and needed to get home quickly.

Was recommended here as I am celiac and they have a gf menu. As we were unsure what time we would be going (prior commitment before hand) I did not book. We arrived at 2.45pm and there was a sign outside saying 'bookings only, no walk ins ' This was NOT on their website. We went in and spoke to a female member of staff who advised exactly what the sign had said. I then spoke to a male member of staff and asked where on their website it stated what the sign said, he said it didn 't. Advised that due to rugby being on, they were unusually busy. The restaurant is large and they were not full to capacity. Asked if there was anyway we could have a table for 2 for an hour, point blank told no. We...
