About this place Under The Table

Under The Table is a small, independent restaurant in a basement on Dundas Street, at the northern edge of Edinburgh's New Town. It's a mainstream, gay-friendly place, not a gay venue. Despite being below street level, the room is light and simply decorated. The menu is modern British with seasonal dishes, and the lunch set menu is the usual way in at a moderate price. Staff know the wine list well and handle dietary requirements without fuss. With only a few tables, it fills up as the day goes on, so book ahead for dinner. The Stockbridge cafes and bars are a short walk downhill.

We had a wonderful experience at Under the Table! The food was excellent, and everyone was very attentive. A special mention goes to Timea, who looked after us so thoughtfully throughout our special dinner.

Only reservation was the noise level - but we shouted at each other. My guest insisted on paying so have no idea of the cost of the three course and coffee

The food and the service were absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was aslo very nice. No wonder that this place has to be booked in advance. Everything was spectacular.
