Moonfish Café
A bar-style restaurant in the merchant quarter, run by a MasterChef finalist, serving modern Scottish food. It has been recommended by the Michelin Guide.
Opened in 2004 on Correction Wynd in the medieval merchant quarter, opposite St Nicholas Church, and run by Brian McLeish, a finalist on MasterChef: The Professionals. The menu changes roughly every six weeks, with modern dishes built on traditional Scottish ingredients and bright, colourful plating. It has a Michelin Guide recommendation and one AA Rosette, plus an extensive gin list. Dinner is £43 for two courses, £52 for three and £62 for four; lunch is better value. Seating is limited, so book through OpenTable. It is a few minutes' walk from Union Street.
