Kyloe - The Rutland Hotel (West End)

• Kyloe is an old Scots word for for highland cattle and it is obvious from the wood
• Leather and pony of the interior that this is a meat &ndash
• It also means that the staff is knowledgeable
• Ll know that my diet is mostly vegetarian
• The bottle had a funky label and all that stuff is completely unimportant
• The important thing was that the wine was lovely
• Jammy on the nose and with a surprising amount of vanilla on the tongue
• My starter was a Plate of Beef
• Steak tartare with a quail&rsquo
• Each mouthful was delicious and well balanced
• Possibly the best game terrine that either of us have ever had
• Crunchy with pistachios and smooth with the deliciously pink mousse that bound it all together
• The beetroot chutney that came with was great and had a really nicely balanced acidity
• The 600 gr sirloin on the bone is a huge monster but the fillet is pretty sizable too
• ) My companion pressed his fillet steak with his fork and the meat sprung back immediately
• My three pieces were succulent and gently cooked
• Just flavourful steaks with a caramelly outside and a oozing pink inside
• You can chose from a variety of sauces to go with your steak
• Ve found a place with a really good British cheese board
• I was particularly taken by the citrussy goats cheese and a delicately smelly orange rind that was a lot like a firm Chaumes
• The hard cheeses were good too and the blue delightfully fresh
• The decor was really quirky with cow skin printed booth seats and armchairs
• The cuts are presented on a platter and brought to the table an explained what is the best way to have the steak
• I thought this was great for people who haven't eaten steak before
• Kyloe is extremely central and basks below the castle with stunning views up at it
• The roast is carved at the table and served with Yorkshire pudding while tatties
• Sweet root veggies were all served family style
• The meat was perfectly cooked and was some of the best I have had in a long time
• 100 for a roast dinner with all the trimmings which fed 4 of us the beef is carved in front of you and the sides are delicious
• The desert was a toffee apple pie and custard
• Honestly the best custard I've ever tasted and the pie was unbelievable
• This is one of the best eating experiences in Edinburgh I couldn't recommend it more
• The service was up to the standard
• The ones where the beef is cooked medium rare
• With the abundance of crispy roast potatoes and vegetables served on wooden platters with lovely pots of gravy
• So thought we'd take a walk down to see if there was a table free
• I think our waiters name was Gavin and he couldn't do more to help us
