"Called here on the off chance whilst on a family visit to Edinburgh. Although they were unable to accommodate us straight away, they suggested we return in 45 mins. True to their word a table was available and it was most definitely worth the wait! Food was delicious, service was polite and efficient. Having eaten in a lot of average restaurants that really could and should do better, this place is a welcome affirmation that some places really can be very good at what they do. Eat here if you can. PS Don’t go for a drink at the pub across the road if you find yourself waiting for a table. £24 for two glasses of red wine that were nothing special (you can buy it for £5 a bottle in Tesco and €3 a bottle in Italy) is daylight robbery."

Just horrible Vegetable Chow Mein very greasy noodles and practically no veg. Probably the worst I’ve ever had.

Both of us had a starter, bbq spare ribs and chicken spring rolls.....delicious. Followed by Cantonese sweet and sour chicken and chow mien again both delicious. Hope to dine here again on our next trip to Edinburgh.

Not a good sign when the best dish was the prawn cracker appetizers. The extremely expensive dim sum was the mass produced type available in any Asian grocery. The duck in plum sauce was very tough! The Szechuan prawns were quite good. Egg fried rice was barely acceptable.

Showed up at just after 5 PM without reservations on a Friday night. We were lucky enough to get a table. The Singapore chow mein noodles were absolutely delicious. The shrimp crackers were also enjoyable. The hot and sour soup was very nice. The food came out blazing fast. The restaurant filled up very quickly. They do a lot of to go orders. Har gow wonderful. Chicken show mein was good.

Visited due to reviews and ordered a takeaway one box of sweet and sour with egg fried rice and was really underwhelmed. Maybe the good reviews were based on dining in, but I think it should reflect all meals. The egg fried rice was white and did not have any seasoning just a few minute bits of egg and the sweet and sour sauce was quite subtle. For £8.90 with 10p for a bag think it is overpriced and didn't enjoy it.

Lovely Chinese food. Free prawn crackers which seemed freshly made. I had salt and chilli tofu to start which was really tasty. I then had the almond crusted prawns but asked to have honey chilli sauce instead of the orange Cointreau sauce which they easily accommodated for me. The prawns were amazing and big portion size. My partner enjoyed salt and chilli chicken, but raves about his fillet steak Cantonese style said it was delicious. We’ve been to this restaurant numerous times and even get a Chinese takeaway from here as you can book your time slot to pickup. Lovely food and nice pleasant staff.

Been here a few times over the years as the food is always really good. This time was for a family birthday so a special occasion. Have to say, the restaurant really could do with a bit of smartening up I don’t think it’s changed in 10 years as it would make all the difference, chairs are very saggy too. The food, though, is still great. Love the crispy duck, and pork dumplings as starters. Shredded chicken and beef mains really good too as there’s a lot more actual meat than you get in many places. Service was a little confused when we were there suspect some staff were new. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

"new kapitel has caught my attention after I was on top ten on trip advisor only months after the opening in the oktober last year. that and the fact that it is open for my early january birthday, made it the perfect place to celebrate to become a little older. I was with the man and his family. the man is quite used to my taste and good to the kind of kitchen that would appeal to me for a special occasion; his family not so much and I was filled with shame as his mother scornful went through the menu trying to find something she would enjoy. I've eaten with the family of the man, and I know they enjoy eating, so I think it's a failure of the menu that it is not accessible. the benming always blooming and garnish can appeal to some, but for others it is overcomplicated and it is necessary to find a balance between the two. we start with the starters and I go for venison sour wort pithvier. the venison was underheated and incredibly dry, to the happiness the sourded a little moisturizing and so saved the whole dish, but the aromen were quite not clear, except the garnitur of plastered mushrooms I thoroughly enjoyed. for the largest part we chose a fish dish for our main,- sea trout, smoked muddles, petersilien and coast herbs. where the starter fell, the main recording is getting back. the dish is rich and creamy, and each element adds the complexity of the taste as a whole, without disturbing. the concept is now an old one, and it would be deceptive if it had not worked, as it would essentially pay with this place. I enjoyed my meal in new chapter, although I do not agree with it is stellar status under the hierarchy of edinburgh eateries. it is top ten position is just a flash in the pan of hot popularity, and in time it will be plated in the upper half of the middle stage where it belongs. and that is where it belongs, the dishes can be plated with a michelin star in understood, and the venue and the supporting media has the clean lines and empty slate look of fine but eat the team has a long gone to go if that is their real aim. at the end, although it was a beautiful meal, and cheap (at the moment I would not be surprised to see their prices slowly rise) and the man’s mother found something they enjoyed and that is the most important."
