LYLA creates a menu utilising the best line caught fish & sustainable shellfish sourced from the Scottish Isles.
We collaborate with the UK's top farms to procure organic meats and vegetables, while also maintaining cherished relationships with local foragers and growers.
Our kitchen invites you to experience an extended tasting menu, offering a natural expression of our carefully selected ingredients. At the heart of our menu is a commitment to bringing the authentic flavors of Scotland to our capital city.

The evening starts off upstairs with views of the Firth of Forth where we present a bespoke list of apéritifs & Champagnes alongside snacks which are plated up by chefs at the centre counter.
We will then progress downstairs to our main dining room to continue with a 10 course menu with an open kitchen to watch the Chef’s prepare your dishes.
