I've been here for lunch at least 3 times now and it's been excellent fare each time. Not as expensive as I expected either. Brought clients here also and they've always been chuffed with the grub, the service and the atmosphere. It's necessary to book on busy pay-days for example but I'll go frequently.

The food is pretty straightforward in terms of selection, some inventive risottos, pasta, steaks and so on. Top starters, when I went recently all 4 of the ones we selected looked good.The mains were decent sized and we were all pretty full when we finished up.

The service is of a high standard and efficient.

All in all I'll go again, a bit more expensive than Ricks and harder to get a table but a nice spot for a treat.

I went to tigerlily last night because I was emailed one of the 2 4 1 vouchers circulating just now.

It was absolutely brilliant, I have never had service as friendly and good as we had at Tiger Lily, we were served by a Welsh waitress who really knew her stuff, was attentive without being overly so and really made the evening.

The food came quickly and was divine - we opted for the chocolate fondue for pudding which was fun and a bit of a novelty (even though I managed to get more chocolate on my top than in my mouth!)

A really great - inexpensive night. £39 for 2 people - we had a bottle of house white, 2 mains and the fondue. We got one of the main courses free - but still, a main was roughly £10. Excellent all round. I will certainly be returning!

I've been here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I'd have to say that the breakfast was not expensive but also really underwhelming. Lunch and dinner were excellent, and not overpriced for George St. Service is excellent. Atmosphere is unique - good first date or trying-to-impress-someone material. To get a deal on a meal try priceyourmeal.com - which is like eBay but for meal deals at Tigerlily and other places in Edinburgh.
