The service could have been better (my table wasn’t ready for my reservation, my food took almost an hour, and my water glass remained empty throughout my meal despite the tables next to me being filled often)… that being said, the atmosphere was lovely and the food was delicious! I would absolutely return. ◡̈
Visited this beautiful restaurant when visiting Edinburgh, what an absolute gem it was! Food was delicious! Service was amazing with very friendly staff, very nice cocktails, all for a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend and return if ever in Edinburgh again!
Recently took a group from Germany for an evening meal. Staff, service and food excellent. Gabriela and Megan were attentive friendly and professional with nothing too much trouble. Fabulous location, comfortable surroundings and a quality selection of drinks. Highly recommended when in the capital.
Celebrated a birthday there and they were very accommodating. Good wine, good food, reasonable prices. Would go back
Great experience at Dine! The servers were all friendly and helpful and the food was divine - would absolutely recommend. Christmas crackers provided at the table was a lovely surprise too!
This is a very nice restaurant in Edinburgh. Its location is a bit off the main street and on the 2nd floor. But the decorations are very contemporary. The food is good with a modern twist. It is gourmet but not Scotland local food. Overall, a good experience.
This is not my first time at Dine and it certainly won't be my last either. The food is so fresh and utterly delightful. The drinks and cocktails are wonderful and some lovely chat from Angus at the bar after my meal too. The market deal is fabulous, as a solo diner I had 3 courses and a half bottle of wine for just £28. An absolute bargain! Compliments to the chefs too. A lovely experience and would highly recommend xxx
Review from 29th of February 2023
Up one flight of stairs on the first floor of Traverse theatre which is in adjacent to Usher Hall.
Very nice interior as walking up as well as entering with a tree in the middle of the dining area on the right and on the left the Bar area with Bar with seats.
The lunch deal which is very good value for money, but combination of lacklustre dishes.
The duck terrine with tiny salad and a triangle of bread was below average and the Starter of fish with some chicory leaves was also average. The mains of fish was reasonably good.
The desert of filo pastry with fruit and cream was average as was the ice cream sorbet dessert.
The drinks for £5 on the classic cocktail was a good value and the margarita particular was well made.
The service was attentive.
The ambience was lively, a table to rather close together, and the lighting rather low, because partly because of the tree of scaring the light.
Good value for money for average tasting food, but excellent value for cocktails
Which started last time and end at 6 pm.
Review from 2022:
Just of Castle Terrace in the traverse theater. Up on flight of stairs and there is a lift.
Nice design of Dine at the stairs.
Restaurant is modern interior with a tree in the middle that breaks things up.
Lunch menu- 2/3 courses excellent value. Had the black pudding croquette- excellent dish and the mains of Beef pave- again excellent.
Had the classic cocktails for £5! Amazing value. The margarita was excellent- shaken not frappe and the Americano.
Vibrant on a Wednesday lunch time!
Good service.
Fantastic weekend day lunch choice!
