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.

Went on a freezing cold January lunchtime. The restaurant was lovely and warm so was the atmosphere and the staff were friendly and welcoming, The food was incredible everything was homemade and perfectly cooked. We had both pies, Steak & haggis and the Chicken and mushroom and both were delicious. The desserts were just as delicious and all homemade. The staff were lovely, friendly and professional throughout and the toilets were immaculate. I can’t wait for my next visit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A beautiful festive treat. We felt like we’d walked into a Parisian bistro somewhere off Place de la Republic. All the food was awesome (my bourguignon with buttery mash was delicious) and the drinks (rum old fashioned, bottle of Corbiere) were perfect. Add in an attentive service, great ambience and a wedding party, wandering through to rapturous applause, and we had everything to make this a highly memorable and enjoyable lunchtime. Highly recommended. Magnifique!
