Hotel du Vin - Edinburgh

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.

The environment very pleasant,tables well spread out and quiet. The staff were very attentive, without being over-officious The food was fine, though the consomme was not quite what we had anticipated. Wine list excellent.

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday. We both had never been to this restaurant and first impressions were beautiful. We were took to our table by a really lovely waitress. She told us about the menu and she was very knowledgeable. We had the chateaubriand deal which came with chip salad and a bottle of wine. We also ordered tiger prawns to start with. We got offered lovely fresh breads as well. Everything about this meal was perfect. The food was incredibly good and one of the best meats we have had. Our waitress was lovely and very accommodating throughout the whole experience. She is an absolute credit to the restaurant. Unfortunately I didn't catch her name but she was born in Hungary :)

Beautiful place, and food was out of this world. Very relaxing experience

It's a lovely space. The food was amazing but the portions for two were quite small. The wine selection was house red or white and while they are delicious it's a very limited choice. Overall good for a night out but you will need to get a starter and a sweet to make it a full meal.
