Oloroso, 33 Castle Street, EH2 3DN, Edinburgh
Spectacular location with views of the Castle to the south and Fife to the north. However, lacks character and feels a little sterile. Food is good but comes at a price. Also, our quiet dinner was slightly disrupted by noise coming from a group in the bar area.

Have to agree with the previous reviewer on many points.
The food is great, but at a price. But with the views that he has mentioned, I think this is how they can get away with the slightly inflated prices.
The doormen can be a tad over zealous at times when all you want is a drink and a quick snack from the bar, but apart from that, I really like the place.

I've returned many Sunday afternoons to Oloroso for a great lunch. Normally their main cost around £23 each but on Sunday, you can enjoy a three course plus wine for £20. The menu is a reduced selection of the previous week - but it ain't no bubble'n'squeak! The service is attentative and bar staff are enthused about their cocktails.
The food is fantastic and for the price and view, superb, I highly recommend them. Also, their bread is famous. I've only ever tasted bread at two other restaurants as good. Another in Edinburgh (I've forgotten the name) and a bistro/bar in Perth, West Australia.

Definitely going back!
Great food, good service. A bit pricey, but was expecting that. Extensive drinks menu, but not many non-alcoholic drinks (this becomes an issue when pregnant!). Try sister restaurant - Roti - round the corner for good Indian food without the price tag.

I have been a few times and have actually written to complain about the slow service. I did not even get a reply , but I may now go back to find out if it has imrpoved to an acceptable level. Shame as the food was always quite good.
