Dishoom had been recommended but was bitterly disappointed. We had 3 separate servers. 2 lamb chops were £20 & this was supposed to be a main but all that was served was 2 lamb chops. The nan was £5 and all that was served was 2 corners. The food was tasty but not enough of it. The server didn’t remove the clay pot lids so we put them on the floor beside us because no room on the table. Overall was more like a canteen and although food was tasty we left hungry. Unbelievable considering it’s middle eastern Indian food. First time for everything, I suppose. I removed the service charge of £12.95 because it wasn’t earned. If you like this type of food then try Chakoo in Glasgow. It’s superior.

Visited for the “ Eat out Edinburgh “ advertised menu but given a normal Menu and had to request the other , not good . Food all came together starter main and bread resulting in bread being cold when eating main . We hate getting all the food together and completely unnecessary. This is why we couldn’t give 5 stars . Food however was very good and servers were really nice . Is it better than some other Indian restaurants ?, would have to say no , but we really enjoyed ourselves anyway , well except the cold Naan and Roti . Thanks to all at Dishoom .

I’ve never been to a place like this before that has such amazing drool worthy food. I feel like I ascended to the heavens, after taking a bite of the paneer and then descended to drink from a holy spiritual waterfall when eating a bit of the chicken tandoori. I’ve reached enlightenment during dessert when eating the chilled rice pudding with a caramelized texture of blueberries on top I’m never looking back now. This was the best thing I’ve ever experienced, good night now.

Bestestest place for Indian food in the UK! They can never go wrong with any of the dishes. We preferred our usual Pau Bhaji, Bhel, Vada Pav, House Special Chaat, Gun Powder Potatoes, Black Daal, Garlic Naan, Matar Paneer, Chicken Biriyani and some cocktails. No dish has ever disappointed, it’s always as perfect as it could get, no matter which branch you go to. The ambience is so Bombay with different places having funny writings, movie posters, and retro Hindi songs. It takes you back to 80s even if you were not born then. The staff have always been extremely polite and friendly, always explaining the menu to us. The washrooms are clean and have old flushing pull chains which are really fancy. The lighting is always dim in the evenings making the atmosphere very warm. They also have unlimited different types of chai before 4PM or so. If you ask at the reception, they will give you a dice or something which you can bring every time you’re there to dine and if you get a six, your bill is on the house, isn’t that amazing? Always always always recommended - hope you enjoy the best food!

A well-decorated in the town centre, Dishoom is a good place to enjoy an Indian cruise. We tried their sister restaurant in London, and is attracted by the promotion “eat out Edinburgh” here. With £29, we can enjoy 4 courses from a starter to dessert. We especially love “Ruby Murray” which refers to the name of a 1950s singer and has long been used as Cockney rhyming slang for curry. The business is always busy, but they still keep for its excellent cuisine and service, recommend to book before go.

When we mentioned our trip to Edinburgh, everyone told us to visit Dishoom. We tried to make a reservation, but they were fully booked. However, they advised us to try walking in. We arrived on a Wednesday evening, were given a buzzer, and directed to the bar. After a short 40-minute wait, we were seated at a lovely table overlooking St Andrew's Square. With three of us dining, we opted for two starters and three mains, including the highly recommended Ruby Chicken. The beer is on the pricier side, but the bottles are larger than a pint. Our server, Elise, knew the menu inside out and gave us some great recommendations. We ended the meal with desserts and left absolutely satisfied. While not the cheapest meal, it was definitely an enjoyable experience.

Ah Dishoom! We had a business brunch meeting, not our first, we love this place in the mornings. Bottomless chai and chocolate chai just keep appearing at your elbow, staff are so good. Other coffees and teas also excellent. I'm gluten free so the granola bowl is perfect - granola, vanilla yogurt and colourful fresh fruit always make me so happy. Everyone else went for wraps or the omelette or the bottomless porridge - something for everyone including the dairy-free folk too. We'll be back. Set over three floors, but very popular so do book

WARNING!. Outdated menu prices, overpriced and underwhelming!. Expect to pay £35 pp for a small amount of food excluding alcoholic!. Beware of fake reviews! Ive been here twice for a takeaway and it was pretty good,albeit with above average prices and decent enough food. However I dined in and apart from the atmosphere, I was disappointed with everything else. First of all,the menu on their website is not up to date so add at least 2 to 3 pounds on top of the prices on there. So therefore expect to pay close to 17 pounds for a tiny main course that is half the size of a takeaway sized portion,which consists of like 6 pieces of meat!. You still need to get rice,that will cost you 5 quid, starters are at typically 8 quid(avoid the samosas at all cost as they they are tiny). nan bread is close to a fiver,poppadoms will cost you 2 to 3 pounds. The rice is a tiny portion,less than a ready meal.the chilli garlic lamb i had was half the portion size of a standard sized takeaway tray.the chicken pakora was ok but nothing to write home about about. All in all,thats like 35 to 40 quid per head for a very average meal.i wouldn't bother dining in again for sure as that's very poor value for money,in fact it's safe to call this an expensive waste of money. id rather buy an Indian ready meal of virtually the same quality,for less than a tenner than to dine here again. This place must be making huge profits by serving tiny portions at ridiculous prices or paying their staff next to nothing. Only come here if you want to waste money and feel ripped off!. Complete waste of time and money,places like these should be shut down.
