OpenTable has revealed its Diners’ Choice Awards for October, with 15 eateries in the Scottish capital having been named the best in the city.

The Diners’ Choice Lists are compiled and updated each month using customer reviews and aim to highlight the best local restaurants across five categories: Best Overall, Best Food, Best Service, Best Ambience and Best Value.

The Voyage of Buck has continued its reign at the top spot in Edinburgh this month, having named the Diners’ Top Pick for October.

LaSal topped the list of best budget friendly restaurants in Edinburgh, making it the perfect spot for diners who don't want to break the bank. The Union Place restaurant serves authentic Spanish dishes which are praised for their low prices. One reviewer said: "Value for money was outstanding - much better value than any of the other Tapas restaurants in Edinburgh we have tried."
