This place was just okay. The food is good but nothing special. The calamaris were fine. The batter was a bit plain but the sauce was good. The brioche with brisket was actually very delicious and I would totally recommend it. The lamb shawarma though was really oily and for a shawarma, really quite tasteless. Look at the picture where I shared how much oil came out of the sandwich. The brisket fries were good. Our server was smiling and friendly so as far as service is concerned, I am pleased.
Very classy underground restaurant with unique decor. Food was outstanding, the Brisket burger was very filling, the banana sponge pudding a bit small. The Waitress could talk for Scotland in the Olympics but extremely friendly. Good WiFi too
Me and my partner had such a great night at Lady Libertine!! The food was so amazing that we couldn’t stop ordering more! Great cocktails and super friendly staff too. The atmosphere is really cool
Finally had a chance to take my friends to Lady Libertine, I’ve been telling them how amazing the food is since my first time here! We almost ordered the whole menu 5 people, the pictures do not include the desserts: Sourdough bread, Baba ganoush, Fried olive & feta balls, Large Calamari, Roasted butternut squash, Truffle & parmesan fries, Ox cheek croquettes, Slow cooked lamb shawarma, Banana sponge, Hazelnut & dark chocolate brownie. A few comments about the food – it is seriously good. Such strong, well-blended flavours, genuinely impressive! For the savoury courses, I would highly suggest ordering a bit of everything and sharing it all. The desserts we tried were not very suitable for sharing so for next time, we’ll order them individually. Please please order the baba ganoush and the butternut squash, you will not regret it! My only note for improvement – it was my first time trying the lamb shawarma here, it tasted a little gamey ?, maybe could have been marinated a little longer. Have to mention that the service was really good as well, they have a very attentive team who helped us in choosing our dishes. All in all will definitely come back to try the rest of the menu!
The espresso is amazing and I'm Italian! My friend and I went for coffees there were no tables but the barman managed to find us one, staff friendly and very stylish design. Recommended
We loved this place. They’re baby-friendly and dog-friendly. The bathrooms are very nice. Our server was super kind and helpful. And the food was AMAZING. Somehow the coleslaw which, who really cares about coleslaw anywhere ever? was the best I’ve ever had.
Went in tonight after dinner elsewhere for a few drinks and we were blown away by the unusual cocktail selection and how incredible the service was. Well done guys you made our night x
I will never eat regular poached eggs again!! Amazing staff and service. Food was great! I will definitely be back!
The place is beautiful, presentation is good, staff is very friendly. The food was disappointing.
Excellent service, very friendly. Splendid wines and cocktails. An oasis of peace and quiet in a crowded area. Good food as well. A must visit in Edinburgh’s new town
