Sweet Melindas

Frommer's Review

The capital's Marchmont neighborhood, although just south of the Meadows, is far enough from the well-trod traveler's trail to seem miles away from touristy Edinburgh. This locally owned and operated restaurant is a neighborhood favorite and merits a visit from those outsiders who admire simple and amiable surroundings. The cooking tends to emphasize fish, which the chefs purchase from the shop next door, in dishes such as crispy squid salad or roast cod with a sesame and ginger sauce. Often there is seasonal game, whether wood pigeon or venison, and a reasonable selection of vegetarian options, as well.
