Home Restaurant

This was just wonderful in every way. A meal which completely outdid recent visit to Tom Kitchen restaurant in Edinburgh - in every way. Beautiful food. Wonderful care - very personal. Unobtrusive. Honest honest. And food sourced and grown locally. I was encouraged to run my finger round the plate to pick up the last drops of sauce. 'Feel at home'. So very relaxing. The four of us dining just loved it. Not cheap but excellent quality and value for money. Worth every penny and pound! Shall return!

Really like this place... it is a little difficult to find as it has virtually no visible signs from the road and sits behind another building, and you are not always sure if it is open... however it is worth finding it. Once you open the doors the decor is lovely, very inviting with art on the walls, fairy lights on the ceiling and lots of large windows letting in light. The hand drawn menu (similar style to the mural on the outside wall, see photos) is quirky and fun and the dish names belie the amazing food. Whoever has come up with this has a talent. So far every dish I have ordered has not been quite what was expected... but I have never been disappointed. The twist on some standard meals have been both different and delightful. The only criticism is the coffee. And according to one other diner that was with us the hot chocolate wasn't the best either. I take my coffee with oat milk and I think perhaps that partly the problem is the brand of milk. The coffee itself seems overly bitter / too strong. The hot chocolate was too thick as a drink for my guest's taste. So we haven't yet settled on a drink any of us really like. But we will be back for the amazing food!

Great but not if you're vegetarian. Went as a group of 4. Broadly food great including one of the best steaks I've had in years but my better half who is vegetarian didn't have the best meal. Her starter fantastic but the polenta as main was small portioned uninspiring. I actually think it's great you have only a limited choice on menu (you know it's being cooked rather than chucked out if the fridge) but the polenta it's a cheap dish at the best of times and a but dull

Quite an interesting tasting menu experience, if you are a meat eater should be fine, the vegetarian choices instead of meat can be variable. But it is ultimately good value, the staff are attentive and caring,

LOVED our dinner at Home. The service was friendly, welcoming and unpretentious. It was like arriving at a friends house where they poured a large glass of wine and put delicious bread and olives on the table. Felt at home from the start. I had the cucumber avant guard which was hard to describe even after eating it - but the flavours were amazing. The green curry fried chicken was outstanding - So much flavour. For mains we had pig cheeks which were delicious and the rump steak. The steak was unbelievable! It was melt in the mouth and cooked to perfection. It was also one of the largest steaks have ever been served and took 2 of us to eat. Should really have taken a doggy bag as would a have made amazing sandwiches next day. Didn’t really have room for pudding but wanted to try the plum tart which was so delicious. Wine was very reasonably priced for the quality and comes by glass . Will be finding reasons to be in Dumfries on Thursday or Friday again so can return
