- GGeoffEdinburgh/Midlothian •9 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoAn oasis of France in a city centre. French cooking, French amity with style but no snobbery. We have been going for over 20 years and love seeing new faces, fleeing jaded junk, finally to find the real French touch. I've been passed and wanted only a sandwich and immediately was given a delightful plate of real food. And we've taken parties of 8, in a private room - just sizzling. Parfait!More infoLa GarriguePrice: Expensive• French• Old Town•4.7

- JJacintaEdinburgh/Midlothian •2 reviews5.0Dined on 17 Nov 2024Lovely food, and excellent service. Alvaro was our waiter today. He was attentive without hovering which I prefer. All the staff we interacted with were friendly and efficient. We were able to sit over our meal and take our time so it was a really great afternoon. Food came nicely presented and hot straight from the kitchen, servings were decent, and as described on the menu. Facilities were clean and well maintained. An extremely enjoyable experience - thank you.More infoCôte Brasserie - EdinburghPrice: Moderate• French• Edinburgh•4.5
