Le Bistrot

Fabulous meal tonight, was a fairly last minute booking but I think we agreed that it was one of the best meals of the week for us, the food was piping hot, and very tasty, we didn’t feel rushed and the quality was excellent, as was the service received too, we would definitely return if back in Edinburgh

For two travelers in Edinburgh the cold and damp sometimes requires specific remedy: Beef Stew. Enter Le Bistrot to save the day. This excellent French restaurant, provided the perfect atmosphere and sustenance to get us moving again. Service was quick, efficient and friendly. Along with the tasty stew, we enjoyed perfectly accompanied red wines. Wish we had more time in the city to come back for their other dishes. Located on the Royal Mile it offers a more sedate environment to eat, relax and recover.

Wonderful experience! Actually extremely well-priced for the high-class experience you get. I ordered the mussels and fries and it was obly 16£ (burger on the same road will be same price or more!!). The food was delicious and a really nice portion!! The staff was extremely polite. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Royal Mile if they want to feel wine and dined for a low cost.

Had a three course meal for lunch and was only £24 including service. Such a great price for the delicious and quality food. The quantity was large for the price. Really friendly staffs and great atmosphere. Totally recommend!!

Lovely little place right off of the Royal Mile, but a world away from the hubbub. This restaurant is right next to the French Embassy. We we able to get a table at about 5:30 pm there. The bread that was brought out was fresh, great crunch on the outside and chewy on the inside. My wife had the carrot soup. It was very tasty. She also had the mussels. Plentiful and generous portion, with a nice cream sauce . I ordered the beet salad. It was the best beet salad that I've ever had. Cashews, fried onions, a nice liquid creamy blue cheese and fresh blackberries along with fresh lettuce. Everything blended perfectly! I also ordered the ragout. It had a nice balance of tender beef, carrot and potato and a nicely spiced sauce. The wait staff were excellent as well. A very nice find. It felt as if we were in France!
