Cardinal is a relaxed fine dining restaurant from chef Tomas Gormley. Located in Edinburghs historic New Town Cardinal offers a modern approach to Scottish cooking. With a wide range of local and sustainable suppliers at our doorstep, from our Lobsters and Crabs at Belhaven Lobsters in Dunbar to our vegetables and Native breed meats at Free Company Farm in Balerno we’re lucky to be taking advantage of Scotlands unique and unrivalled natural larder. Cooking over coals helps add an extra layer of flavour to whatever we’re cooking on them, it’s more intuitive and engaging as cooks and we feel like that comes through on the plate. Tasting menus are our bread and butter but we also offer a pre fixe 'A la carte' menu.

We had a lovely time at Yamato on Saturday. The staff were excellent, very attentive and welcoming. We were celebrating a birthday and they made sure to make it special. The restaurant itself feels inviting and authentic. The food was incredible, we will definitely be visiting again! Best sushi I’ve had - would recommend to anyone that is looking for good quality food :)

From arriving to leaving our experience was fantastic. Food lovely, drink fantastic, waiting staff attentive. We had our food and the staff then came to say they had reserved us seats in the bar where we continued to have a few drinks relaxed and chatted. Lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon coming up to Christmas.

Went out as a group of four to celebrate my brother in-laws birthday and cannot fault anything. Staff were warm and welcoming, service was great, food was delicious and plentiful, music and ambiance were excellent. A lovely and relaxed evening was had by all, no sense that they were trying to rush you out the door- we were the last customers to leave. Will definitely return.
