The food was good, with a nice range of choices throughout. The quality of ingredients was obvious and really drove the steak-on-bone option that I chose. I can honestly say that the oysters were the best I've ever tasted. The meal was not overly complex but it's simplicity was made up for with taste. I found what really made The Honours was the exceptional service. The waiter was attentive without being overbearing and had a fantastic knowledge of the menu and wine. I really enjoyed the decor and ambiance of the restaurant, bar the horrendous music played throughout the evening - luckily at a volume which wasn't too noticeable. In future I would also like to see some more homemade condiments on offer, for example the mayonnaise was store bought, something I would not have expected at a restaurant of this quality.\n\nTo sum up, the food was very good, the atmosphere was great and I would definitely recommend to those looking for a luxurious, well priced, dining experience in Edinburgh.
