Chicka Ciao’s in Edinburgh, City of

Super delicious food and amazing portions. One of the best shawarmas I’ve had in the UK and would definitely recommend the lamb shawarma. Owner is very friendly and will pack your shawarma a lot of meat. Definitely my go to place for shawarma now. Very amazing service too!

Best lamb shawarma I’ve had in the UK so far. The meat is so fresh and the owner really packs the shawarma with meat. I had some leftovers and ate it the next day and it still tasted so fresh! The owner is amazing, excellent service, so friendly, overall a really great guy. I’m only in Edinburgh to visit but I will most definitely come back here. 100/10

The best food in Edinburgh, everything is super fresh, the portions are huge, the service is exceptionally nice, the location is great, close to the castle, I recommend everyone to come and try these flavors!

I ve eaten in around 10 shawarma places around Edinburgh. This is definitely the best, especially considering it closes so late. You can easily get tasty bellyfilling food after clubbing right here. And I m greek! I should know what good gyro and kebab meat should taste like. Service is also 👌. Absolute recommendation.

Excellent street food, some of the best Kebabs I've ever eaten. Super friendly staff.

Came in after the hearts game and 2-/ instantly greeted with a warm welcome and had a great chat. Food was great and cheap highly recommend after a night out if your looking for a nice cheap place to get a bite to eat.

Went in for a doner kebab, they were doing wraps so had that instead. What a treat, lovely tasty meat, crisp salad and really good chili and also garlic sauce all fresh prepared. The best we have had in a long time. This was a treat and not to be confused with the sort of post pub fare that ends up chucked away. This is the real deal and we'll worth seeking out. Thanks guys.

Excellent service, very friendly staff!!!

Chicka ciao is the best. All of my friends love it here. The best food in edi

The best kebab I've ever eaten, super seasoned, large portions. I highly recommend it. The new owner is cool.

the cheesy garlic bread is amazing here! spicy chicken wings as well we’ve just tried shawarma and it was super flavourful. but the best of the best is the service! the owner is so energetic and fun, he’ll make you day or evening better!

best cheesy garlic bread on planet earth and lovely staff

Great for munchies. Nice dude. Shazam’d a song while I was waiting.

Very nice food with nice people behind the counter. Totally recommend it.

This is absolutely the best shawarma I have eaten while I was on holiday from Norway. This is a place I will definitely visit again. Very pleasant and service minded staff. Really clean premises with a good atmosphere. Here you will be warmly welcomed.

Extremely high quality service, great prices for the food given

(Please find review at the bottom, first a message to the owners) Hello owners, I came to your shop at 2am on the 15th October and I fear I’ve left my phone there! It is black LG phone with a mountains case on it. I would really appreciate if you could reply to this review and let me know if you have it or not, thank you. I had to ask on here as I cannot find a phone number. Review: Kebab was one of the best I’ve had in UK. It was done on a wrap which I much preferred as well as toasting it which was amazing! They have a great selection of veggies and sauces. Don’t forget the hummus! Thank you for a great meal :)

Large portions, great food, good prices

Price is what you'd expect for Edinburgh centre, but for that you get a good portion sizes, amazing kind service, and some real good food. Not to mention the place is really clean and the vibes is always great. Open late, highly recommend

Excellent service ,nice and fresh food selection of salads is the best 🙏❤️

Very, very kind and generous owner. The Falafel and deep fried Mars bar are to die for! Best place to go after a night out ;)

Friendly service, excellent food and very good price for the place where you are. Very friendly staff. Careful with de jalapeños are spicy

Very expensive I thought it was a fried chicken place but it was more kebabs with chicken on side had to go somwhere else

The chicken was cooked beautifully, portion size was titanic 👍🏼 cheese portion was deliciously great and was distributed perfectly as was the sauce. Service on a Wednesday night was immaculately astounding. ⭐️⭐️⭐️🩷🩷🩷

I got a wrap which was generously filled with meat. Food was delicious and the server was friendly.

Awesome food and very nice people in a small restaurant.

Very tasty food. Fresh ingredients, quick preparation. Friendly staff

Very polite staff and great food Try the swarma they do 1 off the best in town, prices are decent aswell

Not bad food but a bunch of nasty Tory fools who hate immigrants. Strange thing is they are immigrants. Vile and rude. Stay away from this toxic dump. Any people are welcome here.

Absolute gentlemen serving us. One of the best best chicken pakoras, fresh salad and sauces spot on.

Non sapendo dove mangiare a tarda sera abbiamo trovato questo locale aperto. Tanta scelta, qualità buona.

AVOID AVOID AVOID Go here if you would like food poisoning and the worst bout of diahorrea possible. 🤢🤮 My friend and I got the Chicken Shwarma wraps and the meat was removed from a large pot that full of brown water. The server was squeezing the chicken to try get rid of it. Both now very sick and from the reviews it looks like unless you are the owners friend giving fake reviews this level of quality and hygiene (or distinct lack thereof) is commonplace. Staff were rude. 0 stars

The worst food I have ever had.

Delicious food and superb service. We had chicken fillet burger and falafel hummus wrap. Both wear tasty and had very nice sauce.

Brilliantly authentic tasty food served with Kurdish flair!

the food was good but it gave us all bad tummies :(

Went in for a burger and fries and witnessed the man behind the counter take my cash touch raw meat then start cutting cooked meat Cross contamination at its worst and still never washed his hands before serving me my food

This place is good for cheap and quick meals, it's literally a grab and go and they are open till late. However, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone, unless you are in the market for DIARRHEA! I had a takeout from this place twice, both times with the same results. The first time I just blamed it on the weather bug, the second time I went there with a friend and we both ended up getting diarrhea that lasted for 4 days!! Final verdict: Best to avoid it!!

Best food ever i had in Edinburgh, lovely staff, sheep food and good quality 10 out of 10

Killer chicken wings and amazing shawarma!

Amazing service, 11/10. Best takeaway in Edinburgh. Service with a smile :)

Very nice people and great fresh food

Everything was freshly cooked. Recommended. Anyone planning to have food from them just have their pizza. Yummmmmyyyyy
