Popped in for quick lunch and was not disappointed food good as ever with decent choice of mains
Excellent lunch, excellent service and excellent value. Will definitely visit here again and recommend to others. We sampled a range of the lunch menu between 4 of us and everything was delicious.
Our table was ready on arrival, the staff were friendly. Menu had a large variety of dishes, food was excellent and good value for money. Would definitely recommend this restaurant
The Rendezvous was always our favourite restaurant however on this occasion it failed to live up to standard. The main course prawns were chewy not succulent as expected and apparently the duck was not the best either. We waited ages before our drinks order was taken by a surly waitress tho other staff were at their usual charming. There was a lengthy gap in one starter being served after the other 2 which is unacceptable in a group of only 3 people. Perhaps the chef is new or the ownership has changed since our last visit some time ago but I doubt we will be back,
We absolutely love this restaurant for its outstanding food and excellent service. The wine list is extremely fair priced but if you’d rather BYOB the corkage charge is £5 per bottle.
Can’t beat the food here. It’s delicious! It’s always busy but they always seem to serve you as quickly as they can. You can bring your own bottle too for a £5 corkage charge per bottle so it can make it a bit cheaper. Lunch is particulate good value for £8.95 for three courses.
Good food at good prices. Having been there a few times the only minor criticism I would have is the rather unwelcoming entrance on the ground floor...........but perhaps they don't own it and cannot up-grade!
Excellent food and great service have always enjoyed the food here and will continue to use the restaurant both for lunch and evening meals in future
Great food, service and atmosphere. I highly recommend the Kung Pao chicken, which was especially good. Portion sizes were also really good. Good value for money
It was a long time after arriving that we finally got served with drinks , waiter apologised due to lack of staff , food was very good but didn’t bring something we ordered . Overall food was lovely but service could be better , but no reflection on waiting staff .
Had the lunch menu and the beef curry was really good would certainly have it again
The lunch menu had enough choices and the spring rolls tasted like the were hand made so would have those again. Beef curry as nice some poerry flavour but not overpowering all in good value and tasty
Always great food cooked fresh to order. Amazing lunch value menu and lovely service. Been coming to the Rendevouz for years and it never disappoints.
Excellent starters - fresh cooked and full of flavour. Mains were not up to the same standard though, with very little meat in the 2 chicken dishes and some overly-thick sauces. First beer was served warm, so was returned and replaced, and the bill was wrong. Service was very pleasant, and was still an enjoyable evening.
A hidden gem of a restaurant - excellent food and service and they really know how to look after their regular customers! Worth visiting time and again.
Food great staff wonderful. Noticed there were pictures missing from the wall. Years ago the Restaurant had lovely white tablecloths. I have been going to your restaurant for about 40 years. The tables are a bit shabby so white tablecloths would be an improvement. But the food is delicious as ever.
Didn't enjoy the food. Our drinks didn't arrive, we had to ask for them when the food was being served. The lemon chicken didn't arrive along with the other dishes and we had to wait. When it did arrive it had far too much vinegar in the sauce. You could smell it as soon as the plate was placed down. We waited ages for the bill and as we were paying by card we waited and waited for them to come with the machine. We just got up and paid at the bar. Poor quality food & poor service. I won't be back or recommend
Though there were some empty tables, we were placed at next to people who were noisy and rude. Staff did ask us how we were but they didn't do anything about them. My food was not hot enough. We didn't have a good experience.
We had a lovely meal. Excellent service and excellent food. Extremely high quality. I would highly recommend the restaurant. Look forward to going back in the near future.
Everyone enjoyed their food. They need to change the price on website as it says £7.99 but charged £8.99 per set meal..
We have been coming here for many years and the food never disappoints. Service is very good. A really nice restaurant whether it’s for lunch or dinner. You will enjoy the extensive menu.
Nothing to shout about , food was ordinary , service was good but there was hardly anybody there so it should have been. toilets poor, atmosphere non existent , It's like going back in time to the eighties , Would we go back afraid not , There are far better Chinese restaurants in Edinburgh.. sorry ...
Food amazing as always! Arrived an hour early and was seated without any issues. Fantastic service. Would recommend the Spicy Ribs, they are so tasty.
Very nice Chinese restaurant and staff. Good size portions and the quality of the food was excellent. Great location just off princess street. Would definitely recommend.
we are very fond of the restaurant and yet surprised even more by a "new to us" of our self selected banquet "mains" we are very fond of the restaurant and yet surprised even more by a "new to us" of our self selected banquet "mains" we are very fond of the restaurant and yet surprised even more by a "new to us" of our self selected banquet "mains"
Great place for a work lunch. The set lunch menu is excellent value for 3 courses, and food was very tasty. Service was good, we'll be back!
Best Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh by a mile. We have been going there for over 20 years and it never disappoints. Salt and pepper chicken, deep fried shredded chilli beef and chicken with cashew nuts in yellow bean sauce are our favourites.
Excellent lunch on Mother's Day. Food freshly cooked and we finished it all as it was too nice to leave despite feeling a bit full at the end!
Fantastic food as always, staff also friendly as always, will be back in the near future. A great place to go where you are guaranteed good food.
Excellent quality superb service great value for money. Took mum for mothers day. She is 87 and she loved it. Lunch menu just enough. Fabulous.
Rendezvous is the top Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh. The food was excellent, the service was prompt and the venue is comfortable. The menu is also extensive so there will be a dish for everyone. I would recommend it to anyone.
A lovely restaurant, with super service and the most delicious food at a bargain price, highly recommended. We all enjoyed the experience and will certainly be returning soon.
The food was excellent but the service was rather poor. The waitresses were not friendly nor helpful with the questions we asked them. As there was 5 of us we asked if we could have 5 dim sum but this request was declined out of hand.
Very nice food and prompt, efficient service. Clean restaurant in nice enough surroundings and reasonably priced for what you get. Would certainly return and will recommend!
A very good welcome followed by a very tasty meal of both high quality and quantity. Just a pity that we live 400 miles from Edinburgh! We will remember Rendezvous for our next trip.
The food was great but the service was a bit fragmented possibly due to the lunch time rush. I have eaten at Rendezvous before (dinner) and things have been much smoother. Can't fault the food through. One of the best Chinese restaurants in the city
Really good food, good service as ever been going here for 30 years never had a bad meal would recommend to anyone looking for a great Chinese restaurant in Edinburgh
This is the best Chinese Restaurant in Edinburgh. Food consistently good and service always prompt. Extensive menu which will have something for everyone. Go here, you won't regret it!
The Food nice but we found dishes too big. The service a bit slow but was Valentine’s Day so was busy. The staff were polite. Overall good value for money.
We went for an early meal before going to a concert. The food was excellent; the service friendly and efficient; and it was very good value.
The food was as good as we remembered. We have not been to The Rendezvous for a good number of years but the set lunch is great value at £8.99 for three courses. The staff were polite but just need to be a little more friendly.
We have been coming to Rendezvous for over 30 years now. Great food as always last weekend and no fuss about upsizing my table from a 4 to a 6 despite being very busy.Booked
The food is simply the best Chinese food in Edinburgh. Great portions and strong flavours. Good service and a great atmosphere. Well done the management and staff.
Great food with lots of choices. Very generous portions. Friendly staff. Great prices. Ideal place for a nice lunch or dinner. Highly recommended. Great favourite.
Food was really good and tasty as always. Haven't been let down by it every visit i make. Would definitely recommend going there as food really is worth the money.
Booked last minute and glad we did. Good food - very busy and a good atmosphere - staff were attentive and friendly. Spicy ribs were really delicious.
Food was good and plentiful, however two portions of rice seemed very small. The service was fairly slow even though the restaurant was not full. We also asked for a half portion of a particular main as a starter. They said no problem and it would be of a similar price to the other starters. When our bill came they had charged us the main course price, when we queried this they did provide an amended bill but had now added a 10% service charge. When I said to the waitress that the service charge was at our discretion she didn’t seem to understand. Unlikely to go again.
Poor service Limp And tasteless aromatic duck which had been ordered crispy Barbecued pork did not taste bbq’d So may be oldest in the capital but needs a shake up Yes place busy but lack of choice or lack of taste
Very good food and attentive service. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Very clean. Reasonably priced. Waitress understanding of English not too great but ok. Will definitely return again
Excellent food as always. I had the satay beef which was tremendous. Great location at the west end in Edinburgh. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed.
