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 wonderful dinner at La Petite Mort! My friends & I booked in for the festive dinner menu during the Christmas period & I have to say, what a wonderful experience we had! A fantastic range of dishes and great to see they had so many gluten free options. I highly recommend the Roasted Fillet of Salmon with goats cheese and pea crushed potatoes - it was delicious! Service was very attentive & the restaurant had a lovely cosy atmosphere - can't wait to go back!

Cosy romantic meal. My wife and I enjoyed a brilliant evening here this week. Having never been before we were pleasantly surprised by the lovely interior and the fact the restaurant is tucked in behind one of our favourite bars! The food is quite fancy - with prices very reasonable, so it was a perfect choice for a wee festive date night. Service was charming, as were the after dinner whiskies. We'll be back - thanks! :)

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.

Absolutely fantastic hidden gem! Myself and my wife went for our anniversary dinner. We simply couldn't fault it. Our server was lovely with great knowledge of food and wine. Each course freshly cooked to order. Stunning presentation. Very romantic night out to celebrate our special occasion. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend!!
