According to the present invention, there is provided a polishing method having the steps of forming a film to be polished, having a depressed portion and a protruding portion on a surface of a substrate, and polishing the film to be polished by relatively moving the substrate and a polishing table, while pressing the substrate having the film to be polished, onto a polishing cloth of the polishing table and supplying a polishing solution containing polishing grains, between the film to be polished and the polishing cloth, wherein an organic compound having a molecular weight of 100 or more, and containing at least one hydrophilic group selected from the group consisting of COOM1 (M represents an atom or a functional group which can form a salt when substituted with a hydrogen atom of a carboxyl group), SO3H (sulfo group) and SO3M2 (M2 represents an atom or a functional group which can form a salt when substituted with a hydrogen atom of a carboxyl group) is added to the polishing solution. Further, there are provided a polishing solution in which polishing grains are dispersed into a dispersion medium, and a polishing agent containing an organic compound having a molecular weight of 100 or more and containing at least one hydrophilic group selected from the group consisting of COOM1 (M represents an atom or a functional group which can form a salt when substituted with a hydrogen atom of a carboxyl group), SO3H (sulfo group) and SO3M2 (M2 represents an atom or a functional group which can form a salt when substituted with a hydrogen atom of a carboxyl group) added to the polishing solution.
