Edinburgh was our last stop touring Scotland. We joined up with our daughter and her family in Glasgow and rented an apartment in Edinburgh for a week. While minding the baby, my wife and I came across the Smoke Stack. What a great find. Only locals were there(other than us). The restaurant has 10 tables inside and three outside. We... more

Had a meal here last Saturday and was rather disappointed. Sirloin Steak was around £15 and comes with one small leaf - chips were on the side and were average.

Had the best sirloin steak I've had in a long while here the other night. And it was pre-theatre too, so nicely priced. Just a shame I didn't have time for a bit of cheesecake. more
