They cater for everyone -- even me, and I am a coeliac vegetarian! Fabulous Spanish "small plates," main meals and occasional live music on weekend evenings.

Upstairs bar, downstairs busy, happy restaurant. Great food and only 5 minutes from the flat and close to Leith "Shore". I like it because it has a good range of vegetarian and gluten-free food, as well as a good range of plates for 'normal' people!
