  • 4 Great French cuisine at great price

    It was our first visit to Daniels and as we had travelled to Edinburgh for the theatre (West Side Story - great show!) thought a pre theatre stop might be worth a try. Glad to say that the previous critiques were spot on. Lovely welcome, fine house wines - each of us trying the white and red. Very prompt service of nice fresh crispy bread and tastey butter. Daniels fish soup was deliciously flavoured with a little crab swimming around at the bottom of a very hot bowl. Just the way it should be served. The garlic sauce and cheese were a fantastic addition for the croutons. Just could have eaten a mountain of that. Wonderful. The other half's pate got the thumbs up too. Perfect starters. French sausages may well have been from the Paris market - what a fantastic dsh served with great nash and a sauce to die for. Even more of that gorgrous bread soaked up the left over sauce. I was now feeling full and baking hot. The complementary jug of iced water washed it all down a very satisfied throat. The other half cold not finish her beef bourguignon so I had to polish that off with just a little more bread. What a wonderful dish although the potatoes were a lttle unusual tasting. Not sure why but did not detract from the dish too much.I sampled the coffee and the other one had a floating island (cannot resist the vanilla custard choices!) Very pleasant dessert too. Had to sample her custard too. Excellent although like a little more vanilla myself. Wonderful shortie with the coffee and just the right amount of chocolates too. All that for less than £30. We shall return later in the summer I hope. The location must be a treat for those with expense accounts at the Scottish Government. Lucky them.

    Daniel's is a lovely place located to the eastern side of Edinburgh (not far from Ocean Terminal).I was last there at Christmas time when I thoroughly enjoyed the delights of their Christmas menu. The atmosphere is airy without feeling cold – in fact far from it the place was buzzing!The food obviously takes on a Scottish twist but the menu is varied to ensure all tastes are catered for. The staff were pleasant and happy to provide advice. Portions were of a average to large size so best to prepare yourself in advance to ensure you have room for the delicious puddings on offer.
