A unique experience with lovely food, the atmosphere was very friendly and not too posh at all, with AC/DC playing whilst the food was being prepped.

How this is not a Michelin star restaurant let alone Michelin guide is beyond me. Iv eaten in a few Michelin stars that could take a few lessons from this place and its incredible value. No other restaurant setting like it really One of a kind. People may try and replicate it but what they won?t have is Sean at the pass.

We've been coming to our favourite Edinburgh place since it opened in 2015 and looking back I couldn't believe my only review of it was 7 years ago. Chef Sean continues to innovate and delight in equal measure, as is clear from the proliferation of 5* reviews - don't hesitate to ask anything about the food or the wine, he is rarely happier than when describing the provenance of the cheese or veal.. or the terroir of his new favourite wine... I rarely go for restaurant wine pairings but wouldn't hesitate to recommend the offerings here. You won't be disappointed by the quality, value or attention to detail!
I've posted the current menu below - you'll get a copy in your goody-bag when you leave.
And I can't leave without mentioning Keith - Sean's brother and head of music production at The Table. The place wouldn't be the same without you, Keith. Look forward to seeing you both again, soon!
And next year is the 10th Anniversary! Can't wait for that..

There are not enough stars...
What a fabulous dining experience! I love the concept, and the execution. Sean and Keith have created something which feels unique and special - a fine dining experience which is relaxed and unpretentious, and fun!
The concept: one long table which seats up to 10, in front of the kitchen, where you can watch and interact with the two chefs as they go about their business.
The execution: ... And what business! Michelin star level food, all freshly prepared and dished out in front of you. It's fun - lots of fun - to watch how they efficiently and masterfully run their kitchen, dovetailing and complementing each other. They have perfected the timing of the evening - 7+ dishes over 4 hours, and it all just... Flows. Not rushed, not slow, just perfect.
The food: next level. A riot of flavour, colour, and presentation. Every dish is distinctly different from the last, and the flavours... I don't have the words. Absolutely delicious from start to finish. (Note: there are no allowances for allergies / dislikes, so if you can't eat what is put in front of you this is not the restaurant for you.)
I wanted to wipe every plate with my finger, it was hard letting even a sliver of the fabulous flavours return to the kitchen.
I had the standard wine pairing, and it's a delight as Sean introduces you to each: the region, the grape, the vineyard, and the notes and tastes to expect. I'm not a seasoned expert, but each seemed perfectly paired with the dish it was matched to, and every wine was delicious. Excellent value for money.
Sincere compliments and thanks to Sean and Keith, not just for the food but the entire experience. They are wonderful hosts, and create a real down-to-earth, relaxed atmosphere which enhances the evening. And they genuinely seem to be having fun while they do it!
Embarrassing end note: I had the wine pairing, wifey did not. Yet somehow she left me to pay. No problem: take machine, enter tip, tap card.
Only... Tip enters as pence, not pounds. Shambles. Sean, lovely bloke that he is, had the good grace not to react and acted like nothing had happened.
Hopefully the 5 star review is small recompense - I'll make it up the next time I'm in town!
Cannot recommend The Table highly enough. Everyone should try to experience it at least once. Might become an annual tradition for us!

Loved the well thought out details of the whole evening. Loved the chef and his knowledge for food and wine. Loved the people sitting next to me on both sides. A real treat.

Many hanks to brothers Shaun and Keith, who prepared a fabulous set of 7 highly creative courses, exquisitely presented, while answering questions from guests about their kit and techniques as desired. Flavours were innumerable, often juxtaposed or inside-out takes on the expected, all wonderful food experiences. Shaun's knowledge of paired wines was beautifully shared as were Keith's musical selections, sometimes accompanied by his very well tuned, hums whistles and voice. A memorable and highly recommended 8 thumbs up dining experience for 2 Canadian couples and 6 new friends! Well done!!

Full disclosure, we did not eat at The Table. We are staying at the AirBNB next door and got locked out. While we waited to get into our building, Sean from The Table and walked outside and talked to us about the restaurant and Edinburgh while we waited. He asked if we liked gin, and we said yes and he brought us out a round of gin drinks while we waited. The restaurant is clearly not just about the food, but also about service and hospitality. Which I truly appreciate. I won?t get to eat at The Table on this trip to Edinburgh but I will 100% make sure I do the next time I visit.

We had a great evening at The Table. The dishes were varied, delicious and beautifully presented.The wine pairings were great. And Sean's introductions about each dish and the wine were interesting and informative. The whole atmosphere was friendly, relaxed informal and welcoming.

Went here for a treat with my partner and couldn?t of had a better night! A perfect mix of incredible / inspired / fun / creative /cooked to perfection food, matched with the perfect wines, every time, in an easy and chilled out atmosphere. No pretentiousness just incredible skill, knowledge and service. Even the music takes you to places you never expected. ? would recommend - go right now. Chat to people!
