Slow on food arriving, I wanted to leave and buy a sandwich. The place was clearly understaffed, considering asl the tables were reserved, with only one waiter and chef? The Ford was mediocre. Took so long to arrive and I wouldn't say it was piping hot. The pricing its very reasonable, for what you're getting though, it could be considered expensive for the quality of the meal. The waiter was helpful and keen to do things correctly. I just felt sorry for him. He did wil and nobody seemed to be uptight by the wait. I understand it's a bar, however due to the small premises the border level at times was intolerable. There's a severe lack of lighting in the ladies h toilet. Well there are actually four lights IB thre small space, they are very dim. An older lady commented to me she felt as if she could "hardly see ". The viability it's reduced due to insufficient light. I probably wouldn't go back here, there just wasn't anything special, unique or that I enjoyed enough. Add a whole, including the number of tables, length of wait, nothing special in the food department that I ordered. It wasn't unpleasant, there's other places I'd like to try.

As at 24th July 2019 management has changed the strategy here. It's cheaper but no longer value for money. Limited menu, poor quality food and small portions (I'm a light eater !). I was returning to enjoy the pre-theatre menu and the modern stylish food and ambience, (agree totally with previous 5 star reviews and prior quality verging on high dining) but tonight was so disappointing. Don't say you haven't been warned.

Great, inventive food & good value 'pre-theatre' menu. La Petite Mort has been good in past but last night I had a really outstanding meal there & it was three courses for £25 quid. Lamb belly looked like a novelty but had to try it, not a novelty, meltingly soft, flavourful and the fat balanced by a sharp anchovy tapinade. Cullen Skink Risotto had beautiful smoked haddock with leek. And the dark chocolate & candied orange balanced the sweetness of an orange posset for desert. Superb meal with not a single weak dish.

I've been there twice now and something just rubs me the right way. It's probably the food. Food at Le Petit Mort is good! Surprisingly good, in fact, considering the fairly down to earth prices and the genuinely delightful setting. First time around I tried the lunch menu (burger + soup) which was substantial enough to fill the ol' tank for a day. On the second occasion I went for something finer and the experience did not disappoint. To date, this is my favorite eating out experience in Edinburgh.

A Christmas Eve Catastrophe: After 2 phone calls weeks before to confirm they were serving dinner, we booked a table for 5 for 7:30 only to be greeted by a locked door. Eventually they let us in to break the bad news that the kitchen had in fact closed at 7pm and they would not honour the booking. Then, even worse, they concocted stories about phoning us multiple times and leaving messages on our landline (not true). I see from other reviews that this has happened with other bookings. Clearly customer service is not a strong point - one star is one too many and we shall not return.

Cosy restaurant-bistro. Warm decor and ambience. Very friendly welcome and service even though we were a bit late. Excellent choice of drinks too. But what was and is best is the quality of the cuisine. Starters - my wife had the roast cauliflower-truffle soup, I had the ballotine (more like a galantine,really) of rabbit. Both delicious. Then we had the beautifully grilled cod with goats cheese and chorizo sauce . Yummy! Dessert was fabulous - a coconut mousse with panacotta and little brownie morsels to round off the meal. All presented artistically. The owner-chef deserves all praise for the blend of French and Scottish offering. Good choice of malt whiskies. Will certainly visit again.

Wow! This place is an unbelievable find. Especially for the pre theatre menu. All of the dishes were Michelin style quality. Presentation sublime. Service friendly and prompt. We had the incredible Cullen skink spring rolls and cauliflower and truffle soup. The mains of ox cheek and sliced flat iron with dauphinoise potatoes was beautiful. The desserts were great. Two very very minor issues were the profiteroles were a little bit dry and meat was under seasoned but easily fixed with salt and pepper on table. Will become a regular visitor here for my trips to Edinburgh.

This is a hidden gem! We were directed to all of the normal tourist spots for dinner but decided to check it out online. We stayed at a hotel close by and happened to see this place on the map. The online menu and reviews prompted us here and I speak for my whole family when I say we were not disappointed. The portions were a little small but their qualities more than made up for it. The unique combinations of ingredients was exciting and irresistible. Every bite was a delight and discovery of the intricacies of the dish. Well done to the chef! Also, the plating was a feast for the eyes and I have to admit that I left feeling quite full.

The place is lovely, decor is cozy and romantic, some of the tables are old sowing machine tables and it has so much potential! But in the end the food isn't good enough. We had the ravioli for starters and it didn't taste of ANYTHING, even lacking salt. My husband ordered the steak and he was happy with it but my chicken was the driest I've ever had, close to inedible. The staff is lovely and the place is charming but we are very disappointed in the food.

As part of a surprise birthday dinner we were indeed pleasantly surprised to be seated at La Petite Mort. There was a really warm welcome and we were very well taken care of. The girl serving us was extremely knowledgeable and could explain drinks and dishes to the finest detail, including little enticing morsels of flavour explanations. They serve a menu choice of 3 starters, mains and desserts. The highlight for myself was the rare cooked, flat iron steak. Perfectly cooked and extremely tender. Their cocktail list is a joy to read. They do offer a large range of classic cocktails made to measure and personal preferences. I was very pleased with my Earl Grey Old Fashioned (though I personally prefer the single large rock of ice) My biggest surprise was how reasonable the prices are compared to other places of similar quality (Kitchin, Scran & Scally et al) The food and service is certainly up to par. Sure these other places have won awards, but I did experience a similar (if not BETTER) experience in La Petite Mort - and as they are still quite new, they may collect their foodie rewards later on. Highly recommended and certainly worthy of revisiting often.

The noodles were excellent thick and chewy. The braised beef brisket was full of flavour, tender and bitey. The broth was very flavourful. It retained clear nourishing quality. If you look for a freshly- made beef noodle soup in Edinburgh, look no further. It is a place you simply must try.
