We always love the food at Bonoful. Our favourite curries in Edinburgh. It is classic with some great twists. For the time we lived in the area, we have felt so lucky to have this place nearby.

Ordered a delivery, have had a delivery before no problems. Hours after ordering had a call from a delivery guy saying he had the wrong address and had been looking for me for half an hour. I asked why he was only calling me now, he said he didn't have my number. So while I was on the phone to him after he called me, I asked if he was just eat, which is where we ordered, he said he was Uber eats. I told him my actual address, which we ordered from, and he argued with me that it wasn't the right address. The food was cold and he offered no apology for taking so long to call me. I called the restraunt to complain and again they blamed me for not giving the right address, which I did. The food here is great but the delivery process is clearly over complicated. I will not order from here again. Learn some customer service skills folks. The mistake was on your side and still you insisted on being rude and offered no apology.

Fuimos aquí para una comida familiar para 7 de nosotros antes de un espectáculo en el ayuntamiento local para ver karen dunbar , tan pronto como toda la familia llegó nos empujaron 2 grandes platos de poppadoms y chutney que al chequear factura nos costó 8 . ¡50 por cada bandeja! Pensamos que eran gratis y no nos preguntaron si los queríamos, los entrantes llegaron todos bien y luego una hora de espera para el plato principal! El restaurante estaba lleno, pero casi nada de personal y además de ver para ir a comer pedidos 😕 el precio de una botella de cobra era caro en £ 7 la botella que cuesta 3 libras a lo sumo en las tiendas total de factura era £ 276 para 7 de nosotros y pensó que esto era ridículo 😳 no volveremos allí con prisa, incluso la comida era agradable, pero caro

Solo pedí comida para llevar, tuvimos un curry de rogan Josh. Pedí una salsa extra de rogan Josh, pero no creo que eso sea lo que conseguí. Fue como una salsa de tomate suave.

Found this gem quite by accident a few months ago, we've been three times for a meal and had one takeaway since. Absolutely delicious food, completely authentic, no over-sugared pastes used here!! Everything is cooked fresh to order. (The North Indian Chilli Garlic Chicken is second to none btw). The staff are very attentive but without hovering, and so friendly and welcoming. Menu prices reasonable as the quality of the food is very high. Also, importantly for us, family friendly. Looking very much forward to returning soon. I couldn't recommend more highly.

Bonoful nunca nos ha decepcionado, nos llevamos regularmente y nos sentamos de vez en cuando - el servicio siempre ha sido fantástico y la comida es deliciosa y fresca! Gran lugar para ir después de una visita a la costa de Edimburgo - si no eres de Edimburgo y estás aquí para el festival, vale la pena el viaje para alejarse de la ciudad y disfrutar de algo de auténtica cocina india!

Promedio realmente y bastante caro. La parrilla mixta Tandoori vino con el pollo más flaco de la historia. Cebolla Baji era una Pattie plana que prácticamente brillaba con colorante rojo. Arroz y Naan fue bastante bien hecho, sin embargo

Very disappointing takeaway, onion bhajis were actually the worst I've ever had, soft, salty, overspiced patties- horrible. Garlic chilli lamb was also a bit salty and just 'okay' no depth of flavour at all, whole green chillis in there had no bite or even heat to them. Nothing delicious about it at all. Chapatti okay, Naan okay. Expensive and honestly pretty rubbish. I will never order from them again.

Used to order here a lot, food was excellent and absolutely faultless. Then last few times it was nowhere near as good, final straw was one night I collected just before it closed midweek, it was the worst Indian food we have had. Unfortunately won’t be eating from here again but gave it 3 stars for how it used to be.

La mejor comida tailandesa que hemos probado. Están ocupados por una razón, un montón de cabos y comer en los clientes. Buscamos comida tailandesa dondequiera que viajemos y esto era lo mejor todavía (aunque no he estado en Tailandia)

Everything was wonderful until we received the bill and the ten percent service charge was automatically added to the bill. When asked, that was the tip, which we could have happily declined if we had known what it was. When paying by card, we immediately removed the device. But I also saw that we should have used the opportunity here to give XYZ tip. This means that we Germans, who like to give ten percent tips for good service, would have ended up giving twenty percent because we would have been ripped off without being informed. We think that's a shame in such a great, vegan restaurant. This has never happened to us at any other pub in Scotland, where everyone was always nice and fair and we were happy to tip. But we think it's a shame to be ripped off like that.
