Fabulous as always. Good food at a reasonable price. Efficient service which is non-intrusive and food is very quick to arrive after ordering. Waiter made a suggestion for a glass of wine which was spot on. Usually go to Cote in Glasgow and Edinburgh keeps up the high standard.

Love this restaurant and only one small issue stopped it getting 6 stars. The boiled egg in the salad starter was just out the fridge and much too cold. Everything else was spot on.

Loved it as usual but unfortunately they let themselves down slightly tonight by charging us for 2 bottles of wine when we only had one. A very embarrassed waitress corrected it immediately. Food and service was excellent as it normally is and they're forgiven, we will still go again.

The only disappointment was that the service charge was included in the price. I prefer to tip separately based on my experience. But otherwise a really good experience- lovely food and atmosphere and I would definitely come again.

Seafood parmentier very disappointing, rather bland with not much fish. Service OK not the usual standard. Attracting attention for service difficult. Customer noise overpowering at first until the restaurant emptied. Usually visit every month but today rather disappointed.

Everything was excellent. Staff were very attentive, the food arrived quickly and was exceptional. I needed a gluten free meal and the staff were really helpful. It was very quiet (possibly due to the fact that we were there mid afternoon) which meant there wasn’t a huge atmosphere in the restaurant.

The Mussels meal was huge and the fries that came along were very tasty. The restaurant was happy to accomodate lactose intolerant request. The fish parmentier was just as good. We enjoyed the food, atmosphere and service. Highly recommended.

Overall our evening was fairly average for an Edinburgh dining experience. Better than some, but below others. Service was quick and efficient and seating appropriate. Staff were helpful. Our first courses (mussels and warm Roquefort salad) were insufficiently warm. The mussels in particular were barely lukewarm. Mains were better. Hot and tasty. I don't agree with automatically adding a service charge to the bill. At any level, but 12.5% was clearly too high in the circumstances, so I reduced it to 10%. It's not the money, it's the principle. Total cost was good. We will include this restaurant as an occasional and convenient place to eat, but not a favourite.

Great welcome from lovely staff, at the table of my choice, absolutely scrumptious free French 75 celebratory drink and then a perfect meal followed by a delightful espresso - what’s not to like?

The food was good value and cooked and presented well. The staff on the other hand couldn’t really be bothered. Not a smile between the 3 of them for customers, but happy chatting amongst themselves. After our main, was offered the menu for dessert, no one came to take our order, so we gave up and spent the next 15 mins trying to get someone’s attention, regardless of saying “excuse me” and waving to get the bill.

Friendly efficient staff in general. However could not finish steak as too salty. No real apology- the gentleman whom the waiter told spoke to me and implied that I was at fault as I had not returned my meal. I did not ask for refund as I had eaten half the steak- however a more sincere apology or a small gesture would have made me more likely to eat here in future. When staff ask if you enjoyed your meal they should be prepared for the occasional negative response and a sincere apology should always be offered. In customer service, if you want repeat custom - the customer is always right!
