I visited this restaurant based on recommendations and it didn’t disappoint. Husband ate surf and turf, the lobster and stake was cooked to perfection. I had the lamb which was lovely. We visited on a Tuesday evening in October. Most of The restaurants were quiet In Edinburgh at 8pm, not Chez Jules it was full and had such a lovely authentic atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and professional. I will definitely visit again next time I am in Edinburgh. Booking is recommended due to popularity.
The first time I went to this restaurant was during the fringe..busy period, so made some allowances for the abrupt staff as the food was ok. Second visit, out of season…still rude and abrupt staff and put this down to the weather. Third time lucky, guess what, the rudeness was in full force. Not the weather or the fringe, I guess this is how they speak to customers. So, if you want an ok lunch, reasonably priced but dont mind being treated like ???? Then this is definitely the place for you.
We’ve tried Chez Jules many times now and will never tire. The food is always consistently great! The 3 course lunch menu for £12.90 is an absolute steal. You get a complimentary salad, bread, olives and a wee bit salami, which is such a generous touch. I got the French onion soup, steak frites and vanilla pannacotta. Everything was packed with flavour and really decent portions too. The place was packed, but service was on point. Hats off to all the waitresses and chefs. Great restaurant.
We stumbled across this lovely restaurant on our first day in Edinburgh. The waiting staff were helpful and cheerful. A carafe of water and complimentary nibbles quickly appeared. We shared the moules as a starter then we both ordered steaks and were delighted by the quality and flavour of both our dishes. We both had a cheeky glass of booze to wash it down . The final bill was under £50 which in my opinion is excellent value for food of this quality. Well worth a visit.

It took almost an hour for our food to arrive after we ordered it. The steak tartare was not done well at all, which is really dangerous. It was stringy and very chunky, we had to complain about it. The two people that ordered the portobello mushrooms with pesto and goats cheese were sick or throwing up for the rest of the night. The restaurant was packed to the point we were back to back with strangers constantly touching our backs.
Great cheap lunch in the centre of new town. We had an excellent lunch here, the menu for lunch is either a special lunch set menu for 13 pounds or you can order off the full a le cart. highly recommend.
We waited 1 hour 15 mins for our plates. When we told that the situation, they became very agressive to us and act very rude. Personnel was very arrogant, not recommended.
The food was excellent and the ambiance was perfect. I will definitely return. The wall decorations were fantastic and showcased a charming rustic vibe.

They were able to accommodate me without a reservation. The food was delightful! A nice sampling of wine. Bustling atmosphere and the service was great!
