Nestled at the entrance of Calton Hill, Platz Restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience with a Scottish twist. The menu boasts high-quality, delicious dishes, including vegan options. Patrons rave about the beautifully presented meals, featuring standouts like the pan-roasted salmon and sticky toffee pudding. The restaurant's stunning interior, with its high ceilings, creates a warm atmosphere, complemented by attentive and friendly staff. While not the cheapest option, the quality of food and service makes it well worth the price. For those seeking a memorable culinary journey in Edinburgh, Platz comes highly recommended.

The eating here was good, we had her set dinner for 2 courses for 20 pfund, although we had to add an additional 2 and 7 pfunds, for the beginning of the day and lamb rump. the food was well seasoned, meat or fish were not overcooked or too dry, calamari was not oily, and we enjoyed the makrele pate. more reasonable price overall. we point out that the customer service of our server was below the average, but it was highly chatted and clearly friendly with the table next to us.

Love the sauce that goes with salmon. Great price for amazing dishes and service. Lovely interior as well. Would definitely recommend to families and friends. Thank you for the experience.

My friend led me before 2 weeks to Howies,Waterloo Place,Edinburgh and I enjoyed it so much I took my man with to taste it culinary delights. eating is simply delicious with something that suits every taste and the presentation is perfect. the workers know very well about the food and very attentive without being too persistent. Finally, the lunch contract is great for the price.

A fantastic place to dine! Excellent value and the staff are always friendly and efficient. It's also very convenient for The Playhouse. It’s our top choice every time.
