“What a find... Amazing food.. Amazing staff... 5 🌟” - Marcia
“Good sea food option for Edinburgh.
Great range of options on the day. Mixture of small 3 plates and 2 mains was pushing our limit. Managed to squeeze in a dessert between us!
The seafood was fresh and of course exceptional well prepared.
Good drink options to match. With a separate bar area downstairs from the restaurant providing cocktails.
Staff friendly and helpful.
Nice addition to the West End.” - Oakwood Welsh
“Potatoes were buttery goodness and the bread was genuinely a loaf and was delicious. The crab dish is divine and it’s worth getting your hands dirty. The sauce with the cod is great with the potatoes and the cod itself is perfectly cooked. Affordable as well!” - linnea bjorck
“We had an amazing night at Dulse. Thank you Bogdan and team for making it so special” - Brian Hurley
“We enjoyed our '6 plates for 4 people' meal through Itison. The goan curry and the crumble were very tasty. They catered well for gluten-free by serving me up soft warm bread as a side (not that awful crumbly bread you get elsewhere). Atmosphere upstairs is great, maybe need a think about how to do the same downstairs as felt like two completely different places.” - Rhiann Anderson
“Very delicious oysters at a reasonable price. Lovely view and very approachable serving staff - even got a good book recommendation! Will come back again next time I’m in Edinburgh.” - Will Lloyd-Regan

Dulse was an excellent choice of Christmas present from family. Having read previous reviews which said portions were small we went for 3plates bread, 2 goan curries and side of potatoes. This was a lot of food, definitely did not need 3 plates to start, the mussels and bread were more than enough. The cocktails were very good, all very different from the usual run of the mill, the berry one I especially enjoyed. The only things we could pick on, and only mentioning it as a thought, there was no blonde beer, only lagers, my husband felt there should have been at least an alternative, and no oysters, said they weren’t up to standard, was so looking forward to them.
A lovely restaurant and will return, but next time we will be having mussels and bread and potatoes, and forgetting about everything else

First trip to Edinburgh and we did a bit of research beforehand and this place stood out for us. We weren’t disappointed! Nice atmosphere and staff were very attentive. We had a number of small plates (which come out as and when they are ready) octopus, Singapore mussels which were so tasty, scallops, monkfish and haggis which was a special for Burns Night and the cod Goan curry. Every mouthful was a taste sensation.

First-class seafood and other food phenomenal customer service
My girlfriend booked this for a surprise birthday meal and we both thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Dulce. My girlfriend is not the biggest fan of seafood but she loved every single dish that we ordered. Everything tasted so fresh and of the highest quality. Absolutely phenomenal. I also want to say a special thanks to the amazing staff who gave us a dish of trout pastrami on the house because it was my birthday. Exceptional customer service. 10/10 food. We will definitely be back.

If you like your fish, come here. Everything was absolutely delicious. Would recommend the Arbroath Smokie starter, and the daily halibut special was remarkable. Pleasantly attentive staff in a lovely part of town. Will definitely return.

Great staff, very knowledgable and super friendly! They made us feel at home and welcome at our first meal setting foot in Edinburgh! The food was delicious! Fish cooked perfectly and some of the nicest dishes we’ve ever tried! If you are in two minds about booking I strongly recommend that you do!
