Hotel du Vin - Edinburgh

Starter was tasty we both had mushrooms on brioche. The choice of mains on the lunch set menu was very restrictive Mussels, Toulouse Sausage. Aubergine with tomato and Halumi. Nothing really that appealing. Creme Brule dessert was also nice. Cheese board was fairly sparce with 3 little crackers.

We had a pre-theatre 2-course meal which was very good value. Good setting, friendly efficient staff.

Had pre theatre dinner here for second timeAnother very good meal.The venison game pudding was particularly enjoyed.No time for sweet due to time constraints.Will be back soon

Lovely meal and very pleasant helpful staff.Rib eye steak was excellent.

Set lunch menu with excellent choice and interestingly presented. Very attractive setting within a jumble of old buildings and much more exciting than the street view would suggest. "Free" wine on the bookatable deal was dull but as it was a freeby compared to the walk-in menu then shouldn't complain. Service and presentation good - bordering on the over attentive. A chunk missing from the disabled WC seat was not expected in a hotel of this quality.

The environment is lovely, but the food was mediocre and bland. Nothing we had approached what was described on the menu. Probably a great place for drinks and starters.

The lights, food was bland, bread was good.

Food was well presented but the starter (grilled octopus) was a bit over seasoned. Burger was great. I had treacle tart and Found it too, too sweet and a bit stodgy. Staff pleasant but inexperienced tho did seek to make everything as good as possible and had Good knowledge of menu in regard to allergies.

We had a wonderful meal. The atmosphere was excellent and the building beautiful. Staff were helpful without being intrusive.

Had afternoon tea with my family. It was lovely. Food good. Service good.
