"Booked a table for 5:45pm, arrived and were seated by then. As we were looking at the menu, somebody came over and explained that they were switching to the dinner menu at 6pm (it was 5:50pm at the time , so they replaced our menus with ones containing identical dishes, but for £2 more. Ordered a stir fry noodle dish, and asked them to COMPLETELY HOLD THE CHILLI. Dish arrived with an enormous pile of chilli flakes on the side, rendering a decent amount of it inedible for chilli phobes. Ordered dumplings, were asked if we wanted chicken or veg asked for chicken, got veg. Bao buns were stale and had clearly been made earlier then reheated (they were crispy on the outside! . Pork belly had also been reheated, was very fatty, and drowned in a very strong BBQ sauce to hide the fact it wasn't in great shape. Chicken satay also clearly reheated, tough, and drowned in a (pretty nice sauce to hide the fact. There were a couple of decent dishes the stir fry noodles were good (chilli notwithstanding , and we had a chicken stir fry that was really tasty. But we were probably 2/7 on decent vs terrible, and the service was all over the place during most of this as well. Asked for the bill, and while waiting for it to come, spotted a nice mouse trap behind one of the bench seats opposite us. So that was nice. Genuinely have no idea why people give this place good reviews."

I can recommend the Kee Mao! Yum. Oh, I need to say more to get to 100 characters. It was delicious and I never shared any of it :

This was my first time visiting Sabatour and I'll definitely be back. The staff were very friendly and the food was really tasty. I had the bao buns and the chicken satay skewers. They were both great.

Delicious pho soup stew, good price draught beer, nice if pricy gyozas. So much nicer than bland food nearby in pubs... Poor tourist fish and chip stuff... Much quieter than its adjacent sister restaurant. View menu

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent to Saboteur, everything was delicious. We got a duck curry, sticky rice, roti and chicken dumplings. Everything came quick, hot and most importantly tasted amazing. Great balance of sweet, sour and spicy. Full dinner for £12 each, we couldn’t complain!

I really enjoy this restaurant as a go-to spot for a quick meal near the university campus in Edinburgh. Their vegetarian dishes and curries are delicious and I appreciate the healthy options. The interior can get quite crowded, especially on weekends, with tables placed very close together. Personally, I prefer getting takeaway, but overall, it's a great choice for a range of occasions and tastes.

I was a big fan of Ting Thai Caravan, so I had high expectations when I visited Saboteur. Unfortunately, the Tom Yum soup lacked flavor and the Pho was bland. I felt overcharged for extra prawns, and the broth seemed to be just hot water with sriracha and soy sauce. The stir-fried noodle dish was too salty and lacked authentic flavors. As an Asian, I was very disappointed with my experience at Saboteur. View menu

The food was good, but really bad service. Not a single person smiled or was friendly the whole time. We booked a table for 6.30 and the confirmation email said to vacate the table at 7.50. At 7.00 they told us we would need to vacate by 7.15, our food hadn't even arrived yet! I pointed out that the email said something different and that only gave 45 minutes since arriving. She said she's check and then came back and said, Nope, sorry. 7.15. I showed her the email and she said she'd get the manager, who never arrived. We had 2 rounds of the exact same drinks, and the second time the beers were half the size for the same price?! They also kept asking for our order every 2 minutes when we had...

Decided that we go Vietnamese this trip since we have always been going for Western. After reading the reviews of this restaurant, we decided to give it a try and honestly, wasted my time and stomach space! The summer roll which we tried was ok/passable though the sauce that went with it was 'too fusion ' .. Raw beef and beef ball pho the broth!! The broth was soooo watered down/diluted! I would not even classify it as broth more like some paste mixed with hot water and viola, pho served! I didn 't want to waste my food and thus, requested for salt and lime/lemon from a waiter (only a guy and a lady were serving that afternoon 14 March). Waited for 5 minutes and the so called broth was getti...
