The restaurant, now known as The Merkat, offers delicious, wholesome food using good ingredients at reasonable prices. Despite some issues with service and menu errors, the 17th-century building provides a cozy atmosphere. Highlights included Cullen Skink and tiger prawn linguine, with ample portions. While some options were overpriced and desserts uninspiring, the overall dining experience was positive. The staff is friendly, prompt, and overall, it's a pleasant place for a meal near the train station in Edinburgh.
