Excellent as always, with friendly and professional service from Owners. Lovely ambiance created in stylish modern contemporary restaurant. Food of the highest quality and presentation.
Excellent as always service was great and the food was out of this world . I would wholly recommend the Peking duck . Was a chore to finish it .stuffed
Booked a table for my fiancé on Valentine's night.. We had excellent food and service! I would say it's the best Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh, we highly recommend it!
We came from London to visit Edinburgh for the first time and we were really impressed with the food quality everything was extremely tasty, amazing service as well. Would definitely recommend it to my friends.
Had a fantastic meal at China Town. Highly recommend this restaurant. The food and the service were first class, Also prices are very competitive for Edinburgh
Great place the food was fantastic as was the service we will be back soon thanks to all at china town will recommend this place for sure.
Myself and my wife arrived at the Restaurant 10 minutes early. The booking was for 8 pm. the lady asked three times my name which we gave. She said we would be able to get our table in five minutes time and asked if we could take a seat, which was at the top of the stairs from the toilets and just across from everyones coats hanging there. We had a drink while we waited. Nowhere to put your drink other than on the floor and no table. We eventually got through at 8.10 pm, which we thought they are busy and at least we were at the table. We eventually got our order taken - two main courses only and then the girl said it would be 25 minutes wait. The food arrived at 8.55pm after we had been in there an hour. The food was okay, but we will not be back as the night before we went for a meal to another Restaurant in the same area of Edinburgh and the food and service was excellent.
Lovely surroundings very nice meal very good service busy but not noisy. reasonable prices,the staff get to know you after a few visits and always have time for a chat. Exellent
Excellent food and service. Could not do enough for us. Will book again in the near future.Nice surroundings and very pleasant staff.Idealy situated for access to the West End
Been to this restaurant a few times foof is always good but service this time was slow did not have any food for 35 minutes main course did not arrive for 90 minutes they only brought it when we complained about the wait other diners were also waiting same amount of time
We had a lovely meal and the staff were very attentive but unfortunately our booking with you did not appear in their records luckily they had plenty tables, best to book direct
Food was good when we eventually got it Sat down at 19:30,got our starters at 20:30 Four starters all came at different times,so we all ate our starters separately Main courses come at 21:35,so it took nearly 2 hours to get all our meal
Table booked for 7pm which is when we sat down with menus, sat for over 30 mins, nobody came near to even take order for drinks, noticed people who were seated after us getting their orders taken so were on the verge of getting up and walking out, but managed to get the attention of female member of staff or perhaps owner/ manager who apologised and then came back 5 mins later, was only going to take our drinks order but we insisted she take our food order as well as felt she might never come back again. Once order was placed drink and food was served quickly and food was all delicious but experience was spoilt by the wait at the start and the feeling that we were being ignored while others were being served so wouldnt go back for this reason. Shame really as food was excellent.
Eaten here before and never been disappointed. Only complaint this time, they were a bit slow with the main course but the food was excellent.
Excellent venue, friendly staff and we'd go back again and eat everything we had again. They even shape the vegetables! Recommended for fans of Chinese food.
This was our third time here and as usual great food and service. Lovely surroundings. Very handy for the tram. Looking forward to our next visit.
Outstanding food served here and worth a visit. Staff are great help also and look after you extremely well. Always book as its a popular restaurant!
It was a special occasion - our daughters 21st and Kittie and her team looked after us from start to finish. The food was delicious, piping hot, varied and beautifully presented. The service was excellent - all done with a smile. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back
Fabulous food, lovey atmosphere. Happy, Helpful pleasant staff. Definitely worth a visit. Staff interested in why we were visiting Edinburgh but not intrusive. Good sense of humour too :)
Excellent food! This is one of the best Chinese restaurant in the UK! Staff is very friendly with a very good sense of humor! Our kids loved it.
What a lovely place. 3rd time family and I have been when on holiday from Aberdeen. First class food and service. Very relaxed and friendly. Can't wait to go back!!
Friendly staff, pleasant and comfortable dining experience. Catered well for a party of 8 apart from one item not being available from the menu on the night. Very well priced and our only regret is not having room to sample the dessert menu! Will be back and would definitely recommend.
Booking on line was easy, all of the staff were very attentive and polite, service very good, good intervals between courses and there was no encouragement by the staff for us to vacate the table when we had finished our meal. Overall, an excellent restaurant.
Very lovely posh restaurant, with good service and great presentation of food. And of course, the food is very tasty and always cooked well. Good to visit for special occasions!
great food, problem in kitchen caused a wait but they were very good keeping us informed ,going out for dinner you should not be in a hurry i think.
The restaurant lovely, service fabulous, but food wasn't fantastic. Could well have been what I ordered, but spare ribs with little meet and abit too "gloopy" source in main course.
Service and food excellent! Very clean and welcoming decor. We were lucky enough to have been given a table in the window so enjoyed our meal whilst watching the world go by. Would highly recommend this restaurant.
I came here last year with my sisters what a fantastic night we had.booked again and it never disappointed us this year either! Great food and great service, will definitely return again ☺
We have been going to China Town for many years and love the decor and the ambiance. The quality of the food is excellent and off good value.
Excellent! One of the best Chinese meals I've ever had, and I've had a lot! Very friendly service. All 6 of us dining thought it was excellent.
We wished to have the pre theatre special which was shown on the menu. When we arrived and tried to order we were told it was not available due to a "management decision" My "customer decision" is not to go back, in any event the food was distinctly average.
Food and surroundings are very good, and the service was good but rather slow, took ages to get the first round of drinks. Waiters very friendly but not enough of them. Didn't mind not being hurried but took too long with the drinks.
We were undecided between 3 and 4. The food is definitely good (the bamboo not to my taste, it was more sour than I am used to, but this is a matter of taste. all the rest was very good and good quality) but the service was slow beyond any reasonable timescale that one might expect. It took 3 hours for a three course meal.
Delicious food, good service and at a reasonable price. Always consistently good, every time I've been there. Conveniently located a short walk away from Haymarket station.
First class what else can be said. Food excellent service excellent nothing is too much and never ever rushed, very relaxed atmosphere, menus are filled with great choices.
We have been to this restaurant a couple of times and has always been lovely. However on this occasion the standard of chicken in the dishes were poor. More like processed meat. The service as always was very attentive although we had ordered a banquet and they forgot two of the dishes. Overall we had a lovely evening.
We enjoyed a lovely meal in pleasant surroundings. Very friendly place and good food. Restaurant catered for children well. Would recommend China Town to others.
I went there for my granddaughters birthday and she said it was the best she had tasted service was also good I would recommend it
Lovely freshly cooked food and very friendly staff who welcomed us warmly after we had been to a rugby match at Murrayfield - even though we arrived 10 minutes before they opened!
Good selection. Tasty well presented dishes. Pleasant and attentive staff. As an ice cream lover I could have chosen (and enjoyed) nearly all of the desserts. Will definitely be back again.
Excellent , lovely food ,great service, beautiful surroundings and atmosphere, excellent wide rangeing menu with plenty of choice and competively priced will definitely recommend it. Will visit again next time in Edinburgh
We had a fantastic evening. The food was superb as was the company. We had one big round table which worked really well. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone. The service was impeccable.
This is an excellent restaurant with an extensive menu. The service was excellent and attentive, but not intrusive. All food was cooked to order and the mussels starter with chilli and garlic was a particular favourite. We were a party of 8 and all plates were cleared. We will definitely return.
The place was very busy so service was a little slow. Food though was superb as always, which is the most important thing for us, so can put up with the wait.
Once again, China Town gave us an excellent meal with great service. A good place to celebrate a birthday and a welcome escape from a cold Edinburgh evening
Reserved a table for 7, called up and they let us change it to 7:30 with no issue. The restaurant was atmospheric, however music could have been louder. We were greeted on arrival by a very polite waitress and the service continued to be great, with excellent food which was served at a good speed after ordering and between each course.
They did not have our reservation!!!!!! However, the staff ran around and found us a table. Friendly staff but obviously understaffed as it took FOUR HOURS for our meal. Great Food, nice staff. The lady (manager?) kept apologising and offering us some free dessert but we were full and very tired by then and just wanted to leave. So.... would go back, but not at Chinese New Year.
Visited this restaurant many times over the past few years - good atmosphere and always made welcome. Service is excellent and and coupled with good food always makes for a good experience.
This was the fourth time I have visited China Town restaurant and it lived up to expectations - good food, attentive staff and plush surroundings.
Really enjoyed our meal here. Great food in lovely surroundings beautifully presented by very attentive but not intrusive staff. Have no hesitation in recommending it. Will definitely be back
