I have ordered from Dinos several times now since moving to the area. Always first class food and friendly staff. I recommend popping in and ordering where possible as saves on any possible delays.

I ordered a chicken burger which took 2 and a half hours to arrive which is absolutely ages to wait after being told that the estimated wait time was 1 hour 15. After arriving and unboxing the burger it was in some state and was not even cooked right the way through in fact some parts were pink. Save yourself and your cash by listening to this review.

Excellent, fresh, hot and delicious! Pasta was delicious and the half chicken supper was fresh and massive-would have fed the whole Family! I had to travel back to West Linton and even heating the pasta a little the sauce was beautiful and creamy…I wouldn’t go past here!

Ordered online with a forty minute wait time - chased it when ten minutes late, chased it when thirty five minutes late, finally delivered an hour and five minutes late, almost two hours after ordering. Whilst I appreciate they were busy, they told me several times each time I rang back, their own site said forty minutes. If it had been accurate I would have gone elsewhere - which is what I'll be doing next time. As food as the fish was, I don't want to eat it so late in the evening because the premises is concentrating on walk in trade. Incidentally the accompanying pizza was poor - it looked thrown together and the lid had been pressed right down meaning half the topping was glued to the inside of the lid. I know it's fast food and not fine dining but that's not really good enough. Again, there is only so much great fish can make up for.

Have just ordered 2 portions of chips to be delivered as at work and cant leave, got told they be here 6.30pm, arrived at 5.45, not a bad thing except we had pies to go in oven for chips to accompany, so that threw that off, chips were cold, no salt at all, but did request salt, and the pathetic amount of sauce on was embarrassing, talked my colleague into Dinos as it was always good, but wont be back, if they cant even get few bags of chips correct.

We normally treat ourselves to a Dino's when we visit Edinburgh to see Family and we always fall on the food and devour it. This time instead of picking it up we were trying to show Mum how easy it is to call up and order, which we did 1 hour 20 mins and 2 calls later it arrived. The chips were raw My Husband ordered chicken curry it was tiny pieces of chicken (that looked processed) sauce that tasted like it was out of a box and raw red onions, what???? We were so disappointed, all day on the way North we were looking forward to our "suppers" tbh it was inedible 🙄 it is usually lovely but we won't be having it again sorry Dino's this was an expensive inedible experience we won't be repeating.

We were first introduced to Dinos several years ago and we really do enjoy the food they serve. Tonight, I had a fish supper, the chips were nice and chunky and the fish was both fresh and large. When I say large, I mean lovely big chunks of flaky white meat, bigger than any I have had in anywhere in Scotland. Customer service is always very good and never slips no matter how busy it gets. Warning, it is so popular it gets busy but well worth the wait,

Went for a large group (11) birthday dinner. Had to preorder from a set menu before, which was fine. Good options including a vegan menu with several tasty options. We were a little late due to a taxi issue and main server seemed annoyed and no cocktails or drinks were offered we went straight to serving. For a place that specializes in weddings service was a constant who ordered this or that. They had our names and preordered options could have done name cards or something to make service more efficient. Food was generally good. Portion sizes were inconsistent between items. I had the cod, it was tiny. Atmosphere was as castleish. Overall probably could have had a better meal at a restaurant in Edinburgh without the expense of the taxis, but the goal was to have a special family celebration in a castle. They did not make us feel special. It was fair. Wouldn’t bother with the drive again.
