"For the price you pay, this place is extremely noisy. It was difficult to have a conversation since the tables are packed too closely together. When I'm spending so much on a meal, I expect a better atmosphere. The service was lacking as well; the staff appeared either overwhelmed or indifferent. I had to actually call the gentleman back just to order my sides after he walked away immediately following my main order. On a positive note, the quality of the food was good, so hats off to the chef!"

"This is lovely place with lovely people but it lacks something. There are lots of little things that if they were put right would make it a great place. The food was lovely but expensive. We had the tasting menu which was well cooked. It had a good balance of textures but the portions were small even for a tasting menu. We ate early evening alone in the restaurant and we felt rushed in order that they could close. The breakfasts were excellent except that one morning we were served toast with mould running through it and sautéed potatoes were little bigger than a grain of rice. On the plus side the coffee was consistently good. Housekeeping wise there needs to be lot more attention to detail. Our luxury room was not. It was a badly fitted small room with large furniture so we kept bumping into the corner of the hardwood frame on the bed. The bathroom also had a grubby round the edges appearance. Screws were missing out of things here and there and the window frames needed a good wash. It seems that this restaurant with rooms is aiming at a high end market. With better management and attention to detail they should get there. An on-going regime of cleaning and maintenance together with more staff will undoubtedly help."

"I got my friend there for a birthday contract. the man at the reception was not very friendly. looks like he didn't want to be there. I wanted to take a place in the reception area and bring us drinks menu. we ordered two tees. they came to our small table in the reception area without teaspoon or sugar just a little milkpot. we then became the main menu we didn't want as we wanted the afternoon menu. He brought this and we said we wanted the afternoon. then he told us we have to book this in advance! I was not given the opportunity to book any meal online. we died to order only scene. they were taken to the table at the reception to ask us if we could sit in the main restaurant, what they said we could. we had to do our potte and tassen etc. to the restaurant. there were only three other people who were there all the time. the food was ok. scones very small for the price. it was cold, no music and no atmosphere. the personal was not about friendly and we could not wait to go. will not disturb to come back what is a candid, as the setting is very beautiful."

"Dining here was a 5 star experience. The atmosphere was beautiful, I went with a group of 5 people and we had a table in the back on the ground floor. It was very roomy, and the table was set beautifully. The food was divine, we all shared every appetizer, I highly recommend the squid. I had the Hake for my main, which was the fish of the day, I ate every bite. The dessert tasted as good as it looked, best passion fruit so dry I have ever had! All of the staff was absolutely amazing. Myself and another person in our group has dietary restrictions/allergies, and our server took very good care of us. I will definitely be coming here again with other family and friends!!"

"Le Bistrot is tucked away just a few yards from the tourist trappings of the Royal Mile, but feels almost like another world. Calm, relaxed, and authentically French. The service is prompt and professional, the food is good without being especially memorable, and it is a very nice place to spend an hour or two. The choices of desserts is slightly lacking (cakes, ice cream, or cheese), but overall, it is a very pleasant experience, and I’m sure we will return."

"I called to add more items to the order, the restaurant was busy and noisy which I can understand which made it difficult for the call handler to hear me, and even although the noise and issue was with the restaurant I moved to a...quite room and shouted on the phone for her to hear me, she still couldn’t hear me nor did she care much to add more items to the Order, after being cut off 3 times I decided to cancel the order with them due to the sub standard customer service, this was then passed over to a manager who told me they couldn’t process a refund etc and the issue had to be resolved by just eat. I eat at many places and a good Judge of a red quality is it’s customer service, this was probably the worst customer service I’ve ever had in Edinburgh. Thankfully just eat resolved this instantly as they agreed this is a bad experience. I have added food quality as abysmal as it’s the only score I can give something that never made it to my mount. Avoid!!"

"It’s been sometime since I last went to the Mark Cross. Had heard there had been a change of hands which is always a risk but I have to say, the food was sublime! Felt a bit fishy today so we had the king prawn tacos and salt and pepper squid!!! Absolutely mouthwatering!! I’m not one for reviews but this is very deserved! GO!! You won’t be disappointed xx"

"That is not one of the best places, that IS THE BEST place where you can dine in in Edinburgh! You should definitely try the Scallops and shrimp appetisers, for the red meat lovers just go for the Lamb and for the light meat lovers: don’t even wonder SALMON!!! Moreover, I have never tried better olives in my life!!! Staff is super friendly and helpful, you will definitely feel like you have been taken care of and not only, you will walk out happier from there. The cosy interior and the vibe of the city will make you feel like you are on the streets of Paris! Just amazing atmosphere, I loved the table in the corner by the window! Amazing place for dates, very romantic! I highly recommend!!!"

"although the restaurant was not overcrowded, eating was delivered in the wrong order, our cots come at the same time as our main courses. the main course was very poor cod with Thai curry was cold and tasteless (an achievement to make a curry so bland! I ordered as a page, described as 'old grains', which turned out to be quinoa, why not say so on the menu? again it was cold and tasteless. the restaurant confirms itself as open to 10 o'clock, but until 9.15 the staff began to turn the air conditioning so that it was so cold we had to wake up our hunting, even if we had not finished our meal, turn off the lights and begin to clean adjacent tables and clean the floor of the kitchen area we sat near. overall the attitude was involuntary, and eating (compared to what I bought in the deli in the past was very bad. I wouldn't eat there again or recommend to others to do this."

"Not for Sunday roast, my beef was swimming in gravy which instantly puts me off and the vegetables were totally disappointing cauliflower cheese which had something on top of it which tasted weird, cabbage and boiled carrots. What happened to lovely, tasty roasted carrots and parsnips with a roast?"

"I am a regular at this cafe because it is the best in Dundee! I visit at least three times a week and it's great to have the staff remember my order. They are always friendly and very helpful. The atmosphere is fantastic, it's relaxing enough to study in but also has a lively vibe! My go-to drink is a large skinny chai (and the large drinks are huge which I love), it's the best chai I've ever had. And at less than £4 with a student discount, it's a steal! My favorite cakes are the Speculoos, Rainbow Cake, and the delicious banoffee muffins. I will definitely be coming back here every week!"

"Been many times before but last night left us wanting more. Green bean salad made with completely raw beans not blanched couldn’t cut them. Aubergine with tahini good. Brought sea bass by mistake instead of cod glad they did as cod completely tasteless. Six bits of pork belly on a lettuce leaf!! Nothing like as good as before. Desserts something else or would have given two rating. Please ring back the quality food!"

"We feel honest about Le Chalet is one of the best kept secrets in Leeds! This was our third visit and it became more and more pleasant every time we were! The staff (especially the owner/manager) is an absolute pleasure. They are always very friendly and welcoming plus, they know how to give each customer this personal note when providing their exceptionally high customer service and always with a smile. Nothing is cumbersome and they couldn't come any more! We have always appreciated ourselves in Le Chalet and this occasion was no exception! The selection of options on the menu is sufficiently large, so there is really something for everyone with many unique items that you fight to find somewhere else! During this visit we had the hot afternoon tea that we can no longer recommend! It was literally the best Afternoon Tea we ever had in every sense of the word! The portion sizes are fantastic, the taste and the aromas are purely exotic and the presentation is mesmerizing, so the whole setup excellent value for money! Special highlights for us were the chicken pasta bakers and the shells that were super freshly decorated and served. Every single article on our Afternoon Tea was exceptional quality and that is quite accurate! Le Chalet also had a wide selection of beautiful teas with a whole range of fabulous flavors. If you gently open the petals as if they flower in your drink when ordering the jasmine fairy tea is an extraordinary extra touch and bizarre quite entertaining. Le Chalet itself has a very special atmosphere and we felt very relaxed and comfortable during our visit! The layout, distributed on two levels, has a bit of balcony feel to it and is spacious, bright and warm furnished for all seasons. The magnificent chandelier hanging above the lower part adds an exquisite air of the class that is almost stunning when you see it first. What Le Chalet gives that something extra though, is the little touches that make you feel good! On the counter there is a small bowl of tiny folded pieces of paper perched with a small shield above, which says a quote. This little gesture made us feel not only satisfied, but, really inspired and we think that is a rare performance for a café / restaurant! If you haven't visited yet, you have no idea what you're missing. We are looking forward to our next visit! Le Chalet is not only the jewel in the crown, it is the precious pearl!"

"Excellent restaurant for lunch with friends after visiting the Tower of London. There were 8 of us. I had reserved the table before our visit. The service was excellent. The food arrived quickly and was enjoyed by all of us. The Beetroot Burger was a big hit with those of us who tried it. Beautiful view of the Tower Bridge from our table. A great place to have a coffee, snack or meal at the Tower of London"

"There is something special about this little cafe. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming (even when they are busy). The food is delicious and great quality and the coffee is excellent. (Best cappuccino in the west end). The decor is cute and eclectic and there’s always a buzz with parents, dog walkers and locals. I make a point of popping in every time I pass. Never been disappointed yet."
