Isobar in Edinburgh

Came in on Wednesday for some food and it was delicious.. our server Chloe was very attentive and nothing was too much trouble.. will definitely be back .. amazing place

Had a wonderful time at the South American tapas-style restaurant. All the food was amazing in taste, presentation and well cooked. The octopus was cooked to perfection. Waiters are friendly and attentive, make sure to save room for dessert and get the banana tart tatin - incredible! Non alcoholic cocktails available and a good selection of foods and drinks. I'm thrilled that I was recommended this place by a friend. An excellent choice!

Incredibly attentive and friendly staff, and the food was packed with flavour

Great food, tastes amazing and the drinks are quite good as well. The only place we could sit down without a booking on a weekend and I’m so glad we came upon it. Would definitely go again to explore more of the menu soon

The place is very nice. Informal but pretty. The staff was friendly and the service very fast. The food was good but the portions were tiny. The octopus was very disappointing: only one tentacle for £17.5?! The ox cheek was small as well. It tasted good but the sauce was burnt.The worst issue though was the noise. The music was too loud and everyone was shouting to make them audible over the music. Horrible experience.

Amazing, the menu isn’t your standard menu but honestly it was some of the nicest food I’ve tasted. The steak was cooked to perfection and the amount of taste you get from the small plates were great. Busy and lively atmosphere staff incredibly nice

This place has really nailed it. The food was all delicious & fairly priced and the vibe / decor was super cool. Already looking forward to going back. Something a little different too rather than the usual cuisine you find in Edinburgh. Well worth a visit. Staff were great as well which makes a big difference.

Excellent food, great cocktails (Kon Tiki was my favourite, Pasiflora my wife’s) good atmosphere with great music (old school house and disco selection). The menu has changed a little bit compared to previous selections (hence my new picture showing July 2021 menu). Children might not know what to order of the menu but will like something (especially the fries, potato bravas and the BBQ flatbread). Settling the bill took a long time (literally 20 minutes after we said we were done) but it gave us time to select where to go for desert and coffee.

The best restaurant I've been to in my three years living in Edinburgh. The food is fantastic, every dish bold and interesting. The vibe is great, casual and stylish and not remotely stuffy. It's a small plates kinda place, so not for you if you want a strictly choreographed and formal dining experience. If you're motivated by trying delicious and unique food (for the city) then you have to try it. Can't wait to go back.

My friend and I booked a last minute girls trip over the Valentine’s weekend and we were lucky enough that 83 Hanover Street managed to squeeze us in at their bar area. The restaurant was packed but food was flying out the open kitchen. Sitting at the bar I felt we had the best seats in the bar. We tried pisco sours and margaritas, but it was the food which did all the talking when it comes to flavour and quality. We ordered a wee compilation of vegetarian goodies (peppers, halloumi fries, empanadas and more) and every single dish we got was better than the last. If you’re looking for somewhere which has a South American twist on cuisine and good food, this is the place to go. Definitely try out as many small plates as you can - they are delicious!
