I had an extraordinary dinner in this place. A great experience I would say.
Environment: Very elegant dinning room, tasty fabrics, original combinations, comfortable chairs. If you aloud me to say, the washing rooms were so nice decorated.
Staff: Always super kind, polite and professional. They looked like they enjoyed their job.
Food: Very nice combinations, balanced dishes in their taste and their presentation. Every ingredient served in our table found its good combination with the rest.
Wine: Was a joy to drink that wine together with the rest.
Dessert: A nice surprise.
Strongly recommended. Look forward to return here!
A relative newcomer to Edinburgh, this unusual restaurant earned a Michelin star in under one year, and deservedly so. The 21212 name derives from the menu, which comprises 2 starters, 1 soup, 2 main courses, 1 cheese course, 2 desserts. At lunchtime you can go for just 2, 3, 4 or 5 courses. There is an extensive wine list, and there are several wines available by the glass also.
The food itself comes in some startling combinations which work very well together, and is beautifully presented in a most elegant dining room. The lunchtime portions were fairly small, but by the time you have worked through five courses, you are amply satisfied. The prices are high, but worth it for the quality experience. The house itself is a fine Edinburgh Georgian townhouse magnificently restored to add modernity without spoiling the classical proportions or features. They also have a few bedrooms for those who wish to indulge in a splendid dinner and not have to go home afterwards.
A place for a special treat rather than a routine eatery. Reservations are strongly recommended, as it gets booked up far ahead at popular times.

Hi, yes 21212 is amazing, and definitely a place for special treats or romantic dinners á deux. Not cheap - £55 for the full five course lunch (wine extra) or £65 for dinner. Other friends with less adventurous tastes felt it wasn't as good value as 'The Kitchin' (and if you really want to be confused note that the proprietor of 21212 is called Paul Kitching - note the 'g' on the end) or Martin Wishart. But the latter two are more conventional than 21212.
