A hidden gem of a restaurant - excellent food and service and they really know how to look after their regular customers! Worth visiting time and again.

Food great staff wonderful. Noticed there were pictures missing from the wall. Years ago the Restaurant had lovely white tablecloths. I have been going to your restaurant for about 40 years. The tables are a bit shabby so white tablecloths would be an improvement. But the food is delicious as ever.

Didn't enjoy the food. Our drinks didn't arrive, we had to ask for them when the food was being served. The lemon chicken didn't arrive along with the other dishes and we had to wait. When it did arrive it had far too much vinegar in the sauce. You could smell it as soon as the plate was placed down. We waited ages for the bill and as we were paying by card we waited and waited for them to come with the machine. We just got up and paid at the bar. Poor quality food & poor service. I won't be back or recommend

Though there were some empty tables, we were placed at next to people who were noisy and rude. Staff did ask us how we were but they didn't do anything about them. My food was not hot enough. We didn't have a good experience.

Everyone enjoyed their food. They need to change the price on website as it says £7.99 but charged £8.99 per set meal..

Best Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh by a mile. We have been going there for over 20 years and it never disappoints. Salt and pepper chicken, deep fried shredded chilli beef and chicken with cashew nuts in yellow bean sauce are our favourites.

Rendezvous is the top Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh. The food was excellent, the service was prompt and the venue is comfortable. The menu is also extensive so there will be a dish for everyone. I would recommend it to anyone.

The food was excellent but the service was rather poor. The waitresses were not friendly nor helpful with the questions we asked them. As there was 5 of us we asked if we could have 5 dim sum but this request was declined out of hand.

A very good welcome followed by a very tasty meal of both high quality and quantity. Just a pity that we live 400 miles from Edinburgh! We will remember Rendezvous for our next trip.

The food was great but the service was a bit fragmented possibly due to the lunch time rush. I have eaten at Rendezvous before (dinner) and things have been much smoother. Can't fault the food through. One of the best Chinese restaurants in the city

The food was as good as we remembered. We have not been to The Rendezvous for a good number of years but the set lunch is great value at £8.99 for three courses. The staff were polite but just need to be a little more friendly.

Food was good and plentiful, however two portions of rice seemed very small. The service was fairly slow even though the restaurant was not full. We also asked for a half portion of a particular main as a starter. They said no problem and it would be of a similar price to the other starters. When our bill came they had charged us the main course price, when we queried this they did provide an amended bill but had now added a 10% service charge. When I said to the waitress that the service charge was at our discretion she didn’t seem to understand. Unlikely to go again.

Great food, friendly and helpful service, cater brilliantly for gluten free diners, it was very busy on a Saturday early evening but our party of 9 was well catered for and all the food was delicious!
