Excellent meal and wonderful surroundings. A great experience all round. Even though they hadn't received our online booking - and they were very busy - they managed to accommodate us.

We were a party of 17 people, the food was very good, we were there for the party night however the banquet per person was far too much food. It would've been good to be offered the banquet for 12 people as I believe it would have been more than enough without wasting so much.

Food was good as usual. but service not so good,we ordered rice with one of our dispensing waitress had to come Back to table and ask if we would like to order rice?'I had to ask for water and also had to ask for sugar after ordering coffee. These items. should be offered regardless of whether needed or not.Still enjoyed my meal

Nowhere near as good as the Loon Fung. Plastic covered Menus look cheap, and seemed nearly worn out: they seriously let down the impression you should want to give. I've seen better in "greasy spoon cafes". Service very attentive, though.

I have been to the Rendezvous many times over the past 35 yrs I never need to look a the Menu as i know what my choice will be I was so disappointed that the recipe for the Crispy Shredded chili beef has been changed since i was last there The beef was much thicker and the coating on the beef was different and It now seems it is the same as all other chinese restuarants so I will not be ordering it again

Had been meaning to try Rendezvous for ages and finally got round to it, so glad we did. The food was really lovely. According to some previous reviews the service wasn't up to much but I disagree, the two servers were very pleasant and efficient even when it got really busy. Will definitely eat here again especially with the lunch menu being so good value for money and I have already recommended to friends and family!

Food was average compared to other Chinese restaurants in the area. Starter came within minutes of ordering which usually makes me feel it is all pre cooked and reheated. The main course was equally quick and in all we were "turned around" in under an hour!! Disappointing as we have eaten here before and have always enjoyed it.

Excellent food. A good experience for lovers of Chinese cuisine. The only criticism would be the entrance and stairs to the restaurant. Very dilapidated and shabby. Not a good first impression. However, once inside a very attractively set up dining area.

This is my favourite Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh. I've been eating there on and off for around 30 years and it never disappoints. Nice decor, friendly, attentive (not too attentive) staff and great food all add up to make a fantastic dining experience.

I have been a few times to the Rendezvous Chinese Restaurant and cannot fault the excellent service and food. The staff take your order quickly and efficiently and the food is served very quickly and is always piping hot. The menu is extensive and very tasty. Would recommend (and have done) to friends and family and continue to go there as it is one of my favourites.
