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.

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

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.

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.

I Gave the score card a 4 out of six but the food was definitely a 5+. The 4 was due to the service. It took 25 minutes before we were given a drinks menu which I had to get up from the table to get. The food took a long time and the main arrived in drips and drabs but once arrived, it was was delicious. The waiting staff were absolutely loveley but just not coordinated.. Maybe the kitchen was understaffed last night but if it was, they should have warned us and we would have adapted and understood. The bill was supprisingly good value and I left the waiting staff £20 tip.

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.

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.

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
