   Exceptional service with matching food. Will absolutely eat here again. Highly recommend the steak tartare, the moules frites, and the filet with sauce Dianne.

   Great selection of starters and substantial mains. Fantastic selection of gateaux for desserts. This was a lunch time visit so the selections was from the set fixed price lunch menu.

   Authenticity French with very good quiches, terrine,chicken and sea bream White wine nice and cold. Never had anything we didn't like. There are always a speciality soup and fish on the board, but we would welcome a few changes to the standard menu.

   I had trouble finding the entrance which is actually on George Iv Bridge, rather than West Parliament Square....... A notice on the back entrance making that point would be good

   Have been quite a few times. Understandingly they have reduced their menu for the Festival therefore it was a bit limited for me due to some food intolerances. I chose the vegetarian haggis which was in filo pastry with goats cheese. When it arrived it looked like a dessert! Unfortunately this combination doe not work as there was far too much goats cheese and not very much haggis. Definitely the wrong choice However overall it was a good lunch experience

    Five stars all round. Noise inside the restaurant was not a problem: we were sat next to an open window, which gave us a delightful breeze on a super-hot day, but the price paid for that was a lot of noise from the bagpipes in the High Street outside! The only hiccup was that I had made the booking for Thursday, and somewhere between the app and the restaurant's own booking system this had turned into a Friday, so they were not expecting us: but a table was found straight away despite this.

    Fabulous Fringe vibe in August. Where you feel part of the bustling crowd in the corner of the Royal Mile while comfortably installed in a lovely French environment of good good and wine. Don't forget to go to a show upstairs as well. We can recommend. STEVENSONGS at 18.00 every night

    Great location at top of Royal Mile. Food was decent, French bistro fare, perhaps more suited to a cold winter's day than the middle of a heatwave. Service was OK, the room had more of a cafe feel to it than a restaurant.

    The menu is classic and familiar but with unusual twists! Great main courses - the duck confit melted in the mouth, as did the lamb shank. Dessert was disappointing, however - perhaps it was too late in the day as it felt a little stale. No gluten-free options whatsoever outside of ice cream which was a shame. I would definitely return for a main course and a nice glass of wine.

    I think that a french restaurant should better. There was nothing wrong with the food, just not very spécial and the service was somewhat desultory.

    Speaking as a french resident, le Bistro compares very well with a typical, good town french restaurant. Obviously the price is a lot higher and not so relaxed but in festival month obviously the emphasis is on quick service. Overall very enjoyable.

    We dined at Le Bistrot on the recommendation of our daughter - a former Edinburgh resident. On an extremely busy Festival Saturday evening the service was highly efficient and the staff were very friendly. The food was outstandingly good and excellent value for money. We will return when next we visit Edinburgh.

    Lovely restaurant nice decor. Great location too. Lunch menu very reasonable price. We enjoyed the experience. Just a little disappointed there were no desserts left at this late afternoon 4ish. Chose cakes instead. Not even ice cream on offer. Mostly good was delicious. Though mussels were actually very cool when delivered to table. Not something I’ve ever had but was reluctant to ask reheat All in all we enjoyed it and would certainly return

    The set lunch menu is normally excellent value for money but prices have been put up because it's tourist season and portion sizes cut down. When you know what it's like normally it's disappointing to see the ripping off at festival time

    Unusually poor experience. We were a party of 3. Service was pleasant enough. No fish delivery on the day so no fish available which was ok as there was plenty of other choices. Starters ok, main course a real disappointment. Coq au vin in a French restaurant should have been good but unfortunately it was awful. The chicken was very tough and barely cooked had been cooked separately from the sauce. The mash totally “disintegrated “ we actually wondered if it was smash reconstructed dry potatoes??? Ordered cheese to finish for 2 of us the restaurant had run out of crackers, offered bread which was fine. Found 3 crackers between 2 one of which was halved or broken, no grapes, chutney . Not the good experience we expected and have enjoyed on other visits. Will not return sadly.
