Frommer's Review

Because the Tower is set at the top of the Museum of Scotland, it's worth requesting a window seat when making a reservation here. A sister operation to the Witchery and in some opinions superior, the kitchen here employs local ingredients to create some tasty fare: Hearty portions of steak, roast venison, and excellent seafood are featured on the menu. Dishes can include a pepper-encrusted monkfish served with baby leeks and a red wine sauce or quail stuffed with Spanish black pudding.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
