French restaurant in Edinburgh

“I like to know that my haggis is cooked properly and I've never had a bad breakfast. Very happy”

“Lovely hotel. Perfect location. Stunning views. Cosy bar/ restaurant serving delicious food. We've had a wonderful stay. Thank you”

“I had 4 days in Edinburgh in late September 2025, and this was my favorite breakfast place. My sandwich -- eggs benedict on top of a double-decker avocado toast with black pudding, hash browns and bacon -- was delicious and filling. Coffee was good, and service was friendly.”

“The place has an amazing ambience! The food was really tasty. The lunch menu is very fair-priced. Location is great, and the staff couldn’t be nicer or kinder! I really recommend it!”

“I had breakfast here with colleagues today, and I have to say, the service was first class. We really felt looked after. The food was delicious too and came quickly. We had the full monty and the quality was exceptional. I would highly recommend if you're local, it's even worth travelling for. An easy 5/5 review.”

“Lovely restaurant and bar below The Brunswick Hotel. Service was very friendly and the recommended dinner (Chicken Parmgiano) was a perfect fit. Quite wide drink menu and Fever Tree as house tonic that paired lovely with the Gin. Thank you for a pleasent evening.”

“Amazing food and really accommodating. We booked a table quite late on a quiet Thursday night, and our friends ended up running half an hour late. The waiter was incredibly kind about it and showed no sign of irritation at us keeping him at work longer than expected. Food and wine were exceptional and we are already planning the next visit.”

“Amazing food and staff. Hannah was lovely and attentive. Restaurant and hotel are beautiful. We took lots of pics. Thank you for such an enjoyable evening”

“We had a dinner here and we enjoyed our time. Service was great and quick. We were next to the window so it was quite nice. Will go back there. Food quality was good, but the price could have been a bit lower. Overall, we had a nice experience.”

“Hand on heart one of the best meals out we've had in a while, and by far the nicest Chiquitos we've been to. Excellent food cooked and served by excellent staff for whom nothing was too much trouble. Niall in particular was very funny, friendly, and attentive. The online booking system was quick and easy to use, and our request on the booking that we were given a booth was honoured by the staff upon our arrival. The food itself was all really delicious and cooked perfectly. We were also impressed by how Covid safe they were. All staff wore their masks properly and the doors into the toilets had a mechanism that allowed you to pull them open using your foot. Would definitely return. 10/10”

“Had the most delicious food tonight and generous portions too. The staff were lovely and friendly. Will definitely be returning. Such a lovely place and great experience tonight xx”

“Gorgeous meal. We dropped in on our way back to Edinburgh for a late lunch. The owner/chef was very attentive and our pastas (seafood and carbonara) were superbly cooked. Al dente and flavourful, with a generous enough portion for us to take some home for dinner! Premises were sparkling clean and there was a kids' special menu as well.”

“Food amazing!! Staff also very friendly. We ordered starter and mains but we had extra break with salsa at the beginning, then extra shot of alocohol at the end. Nice small restaurant with good atmosphere.”

“Quirky indeed, at times offers takeaways only but generally otherwise sit-in available. Lovely bagels, friendly service, fab coffees”

“A real gem of a place too stop and and have a coffee and cake, and watch the world go by. It was my first time visiting Portobello beach. And I’m glad that I found this place too! Staff are really friendly and noting is too much trouble for them. Coffee and cake were amazing.”

“Best quality meal ever!! All dishes, the crab tartlet, Cod, Venison, dessert were expertly and tastefully prepared and presented with care. One of us was dairy- and gluten-free, so plates for that person were customized. The wait staff were perfectly attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the dishes and libation options! And the view is incomparable!”

“Good food. Fast friendly service. You can always tell when Andy is working as it all runs smoothly. Four stars for atmosphere because it was a Wednesday night and quiet. Shame the steak is off the set menu but appreciate the price of beef at the moment.”

“Went in for lunch, three took from main menu and 1 from lunch. Food was amazing, all freshly cooked! Service from our attentive waitress was first class! Drinks were reasonably priced! Best Soda & Lime! Guys enjoyed a game of pool and darts! We will definitely be back! Thanks for a great dining experience!”

“One of the best halloumi cheeseburger i ever eat Excellent coffee, excellent veggie menu”

“Haggis- I tried it and it was very good. We had the deep fried mushrooms also, the steak was very good and the Brie salad with raspberry sauce was great—-I am sorry the picture does not do it justice. There is an inside restaurant and a patio. The festival has been popping for the whole month of August and they are still engaging people with great hospitality.”

“Brilliant food and brilliant staff would sertanly recommend”

“I booked an Afternoon Tea for my mums 70th birthday. Our server was lovely, friendly and polite, even wishing my mum happy birthday as we were seated. She double checked our allergies from our booking form and i realised I hadn't included an allergy to egg. However the Chef was extremely accommodating and ensured my Neice had a delicious selection of sandwiches and sweet treats at very short notice. We will definitely return.”

“Haggis Cigar is tremendos, Taste sensation.”

“The mushroom fricassée was amazing. It had a very chic delicious flower :). The staff was very friendly and helpful. My friends loved the experience as well. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to fully explore the menu, but I hope we'll make it back soon. Oh, the prices are really good for that area of Edinburgh!”

“Cozy place, love that most of the guests are local. Server are super friendly and attentive. Great place for breakfast!”

“Gluten Free options available been a live saver for my daughter who loves Chinese . Thought would have been taken of the list since she became a coeliac”
