We have been twice here, once for lunch and the other time for dinner, and the food has been incredible on both visits. The portion sizes are very generous and the constantly alternating dishes are delicious. The staff also make the experience extra memorable and are happy to accommodate for special occasions.

We were so lucky to have our last dinner in Edinburgh here. You need to book in advance, just keep this in mind. Steak Tartare, fish soup, mains, desserts, wine, everything was so amazing. Had one of the best dine in experiences. The service was nice, staff was very friendly. Atmosphere so calm and cosy. Will definitely come back if we’ll be in Edinburgh again. Thank you Chef with love from Armenia 🇦🇲

Amazing experience. I recently had the best meal I've had for a long time, at L'Escargot Bleu. The place captures true French charm along with warm Edinburgh hospitality. The food was absolutely fantastic & the service was first class. Fred & Betty have created something magical here, fine dining with a warm welcome. Do start with a visit to the wine bar downstairs, run by their charming daughter. My only regret....that I don't live in Edinburgh so I could be a regular here. If you're looking for the best restaurant in Edinburgh - it's here.

One of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh recently opened a wine bar in the basement. It serves up an excellent range of organic and biodynamic wines in a warm setting. The sharing platter served cheeses in excellent condition with good quality salamis and meats. Staff were very well trained and added to the overall experience
