Bonoful in Edinburgh, City of

Overpriced and substandard food.

Outstanding restaurant, great quality food and would highly recommend.

Wow I've never had Indian food like it. It was nothing short of beautiful. The staff were delightful & nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back.

Lovely meal! Would definitely come back.

Had a lovely meal food was great

Very friendly staff, some gluten free items on menu but would be useful if they were marked so I didn't have to ask. Delicious biryani and fantastic service.

The food was very nice and delicious, it filled me up very much. The service was incredible and I was treated with most respect. The waiting time was not too long and if I were to come to an Indian restaurant again I would definitely come back to Bonoful restaurant.

Lovely, authentic Indian food & great service.

Amazing food and service couldn’t recommend enough

I would like to express how delighted I am with the food quality, service and atmosphere of this restaurant! Such a clean restaurant, very pleasant staff and welcoming! Not to mention how delicious the food was! I even asked for the recipe and they were more than happy to assist me. I will definitely be back and highly recommend.

Best Indian in town! The food is always v fresh and hot We've been coming here for years, we're never disappointed by the food or the service. So grateful to have this on our doorstep. Well worth a visit.

Saborea la cocina perfecta. Cantidades recién preparadas y generosas. Viajamos desde el centro de la ciudad hasta el soleado Portobello de Edimburgo solo para saborear los fantásticos sabores de Bonoful. Volveremos alegremente. El personal es genial. Acogedor y calmante.

Excellent quality and great service. Highly recommend a visit.

Excellent. Great food and friendly staff.

Excelente comida, consistente en los últimos 20 años! He estado en este restaurante más que en cualquier otro en mi vida y siempre ha sido excepcional.

Lovely place great food and absolutely super staff. Happily come again.

Really nice dishes and friendly staff, highly recommended!

Delicious food, friendly staff, quick service - would recommend!

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!

My mum said this was the nicest Indian food she'd ever had.

Mitul was a great server, food was excellent, we had a lovely evening great date spot not far from the coast

Comida encantadora y un gran servicio, como siempre. Nos encantan nuestros currys, y el Bonoful es un gran lugar. Realmente lo recomendaría.

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

The food was excellent quality and delicious. Delivered quickly and it was very hot when it arrived.

Great food, friendly service. Highly recomend

Lovely food and staff . Toilets are sparkling

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.

Great to be back at Bonoful in porty. Excellent food, good atmosphere and great service will definitely be back again..

Had a fabulous meal, tried different dishes which we were both very pleased with, peshwari was delicious im not always a fan of this bread but im all for it at Bonoful. Great atmosphere, service excellent, definitely will be back. If not sure give it a try, sure you won't be disappointed.

Brilliant food, great service. We love it here and would recommend to anyone

Bonoful offers exceptional quality of food. The menu provides both individual dishes and classic curries, prepared by a knowledgeable chef in a high class setting. The staff are friendly and attentive. I could not recommend this restaurant more. For curry lovers, you cannot do better than Bonoful.

Place was absolutely amazing food was delicious and the staff are great ❤️ will definitely be back

Excellent food, great service. Really quick too! loved it.

The food was amazing!! Staff lovely But no atmosphere

Amazing food, great service and great staff! Would highly recommend!! Food came quickly and was even better than expected. Will be back!

Delicious food, lovely window table!

Fantastic Food! Every curry was something different and so flavoursome. Staff were attentive and very polite. Will absolutely be back.

The most delicious food and excellent service.

Amazing on all accounts! Delicious food, and lovely atmosphere.

Such great service and great food!

We had amazing food at Bonoful restaurant and our waiter was very kind and helpful. Sadly it was very quiet when we arrived at the restaurant since we came on a weekday. We recommend more people going here!

Beautiful curry, fabulous service, relaxed environment. We will be back and recommend to others.

This is unequivocally a three star experience. The food was pretty good, sides better than curries. Service was as weird as possible. They tried to upsell us on things we didn’t want and everything was surprisingly slow.

Lovely meal on a lazy Sunday night.

Delicious Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine including vegetarian dishes and a very kind service. Some dals might be spicy for Europeans, so be careful. Also it is located near to the beach. Greetings from Germany

Delicious food. Very attentive and lovely stuff

Food and service was impeccable second time we have been here and we will be back highly Reccomend thank you to all staff

So nice food and service! Very recomended!!!

Best curry joint the East of the city

Hmmm, always wondered about Bonoful, and am unlikely to have another go now. Just tried pakora (vege and haggis) to take out as a snack, and for sure I was disappointed. It always looks so quiet too, no idea how it can turn a profit.

Great good. The chicken Biryani is delicious

Visiting from Kent. Enjoyed dining at Bonoful. Lovely flavours and presentation.

Really delicious food and relaxed atmosphere. I've eaten here twice in the past month and it was equally wonderful. The staff are friendly and attentive and you don't feel rushed out like a lot of places.

It is runned by a lovely family. Food was delicious. Service was also very good

Lovely food Kind and welcoming staff

What a lovely meal. The service was great too.

Been here a few times now and absolutely love it. The staff are great, food delicious and the atmosphere lovely. Will come back regularly.

A little gem in Portobello. Fantastic food and service. I’ll definitely be back.

All the staff are lovely and they even gave us free chocolate at the end and 10 pounds off our next amazing dining experience! -Stella 10 yrs and Benjie- 49 yrs

The most beautiful food and great customer service!

Love this place! It’s our go to Indian. Wouldn’t go anywhere else

Food was great as was the company! 😋

Excellent food as always. This is a favourite restaurant when in the area.

delicious food and nice atmosphere overall 😍

amazing food and great service!

Amazing 🤩 We had a recommendation from another local porty couple, so we so glad we booked a table and went for a meal. What an amazing meal, lovely staff, food was hot, full of flavour, good size portions, great price 10/10. We will be back again soon.

Amazing, food full of flavour, lovely staff, good size portions, we will be back again soon.

The ultimate BEST Indian food ever! What a gem in the middle of Portobello. The staff are one of the kindest you can ever wish for, professional & smiley. The restaurant is lovely, warm and classy. The environment spotless. The food is delicious, full of flavour and melt in the mouth. The fish curry, chicken shazlic, naaan breads and home made deserts were outstanding! Thank you chef! We will be back. Mila & Nick

Very attentive, food service was fast, very enjoyable!

We love Bonoful! Get take away and eat in regularly. Excellent food and friendly staff. I thoroughly recommend. You must go and eat here 😋

Good food and friendly waiting staff.

Excellent meal and service! Lovely ambience - good acoustics!

Lovely service and food! Nice local spot for a meal out.

The food is absolutely delectable! You pretty much can't make a wrong choice because everything on the menu is just wonderful. The restaurant itself is relatively small and cozy which means it's never too loud so it an ideal environment for an intimate meal out. And the staff are always perfectly attentive and pleasant!

Very welcoming staff and fresh well related food. We come here often!

Great food, but that's three times in a row the food had been more than 45 minutes later than the estimate in being delivered. If I'd known the true delivery time, would have collected, but as it is any benefit of the doubt or goodwill has evaporated. Will not be ordering again.

It's a bangladeshi restaurant in edinburgh served us delicious foods but the portion of each servings doesn't match with Asian culture .. another thing is , it only opens at 4 pm

I had the tandoori mixed grill, which was tasty, but for £21 it is remarkably expensive. Despite being advertised as coming with salad, no salad was provided. It also does not come with rice nor naan, you have to pay extra, which is really bad. The food tasted good, lots of onions which were charred and tasty. Meat was one prawn, one kofta, a very skinny chicken drumstick/though, and a couple of pieces of chicken/lamb shish. I ordered a naan which was nice, thin and crispy rather than thick and fluffy. Overall a tasty meal but incredibly expensive for what was provided.

Great food, friendly professional service.

Friendly and welcoming staff. Fantastic food and a variety of options. The naans was a definite highlight.

Absolutely fantastic food and great service

Bonoful is beautiful - fantastic Indian food in sunny portobello. Well worth a visit!!! Had a mild curry with amazing keeman nan - superb food.

Fabulous meal at Bonoful! Great service, amazing food and super value!

Tasty Indian food at a reasonable price. Mango lassy very recommended (not the salty one)!

Amazing cuisine and drink wonderful company. A great restaurant to have in Porty Love it with your visit. Where you'll be welcomed by smiles and fantastic service

Been going to Bonoful since it 1st opened and in my opinion it’s the best in Edinburgh, staff are amazing and very welcoming, food is fresh and tastes fantastic, never had a bad experience always a great one. Lovely atmosphere, spotlessly clean. Xmas day menu is amazing and so different. Give it a go you won’t be disappointed.

We had a great meal, very friendly service and food was delicious.

Food was excellent, service let it down a wee bit with timings.

Really disappointed we have used this Indian for years last night was so poor it went in the bin so bland and not hot

This is the most fantastic Indian restaurant. Lovely restaurant with great decor and lovely snowy white table clothes and napkins. Great ambience, lovely staff and fabulous food. I really don't think that you could get a better class of food anywhere in Edinburgh. I unreservedly recommend Bonoful for a wonderful eating experience!

Great service and the food was fantastic. Will be back!!!

The food was delicious and the service extremely friendly and good. The tandoori roti was exceptional. The toilets were very clean. Highly recommend.

Last few days ago I went to Bonoful Restaurant it was my second time at Bonoful.I was very impressed with their food,atmosphere and especially the behavior of their staff.It felt like I had picked up where I left off.The quality of their food is amazing👌.Another thing I really like about them everything is so clean and tidy. From now on, whenever I come to Portobello, I won't miss their food. My suggestion is that those who are looking for good ambience and delicious food should go to Banoful. 👍

Pleasant spacious restaurant serving delicious indian (actually Bangladesh) food. friendly and efficient. Everything I've tried off the menu has been delicious. Very close to Edinburgh and well worth the trip.

Best Indian (actually Bangladesh) restaurant I've tried in Scotland. Worth the trip to Portobello ( near Edinburgh) spacious restaurant with friendly efficient service. Everything I've tried off their menu has been delicious ( not just those ticked below) Highly recommend.

Absolutely brilliant food. Delicious curry every time but their price point is becoming ridiculous. A curry and naan (no rice or anything else) should not cost £18. Now at the stage of becoming too expensive to enjoy which is really sad.

From start to finish the staff, food and service were first class. The Restaurant is spotlessly clean as is dare I mention the Loos. Will certainly return and recommend. Also a great place for delivery or takeaway.

Staff very attentive would recommend this for a lovely meal. Whether its for just 2 our a party.

I spontaneously decided to take away a tandoori roti there today while waiting for my bus. I waited for almost half an hour which is way too long for roti, as it does not take that long to prepare. When I asked one of the waiters halfway in if my order was ready soon, he seemed rather annoyed. It was hard to understand him, so that he ended up shouting at me rather aggressively until I finally understood what he said, which was disrespectful. One of the other waiters apologized for the wait as it was a busy day. I can understand that, however, They still should have told me beforehand that I would have to wait that long. I also wasn’t told beforehand that card payment came with a 50 pence fee. Their prices seemed rather high in comparison, as well. The roti itself tasted fine, but the entire experience was very unpleasant.

Lovely place. food was delicious Staff polite and friendly Well worth a visit
