Poor service, no deviation from menu, chutney brought with main course not starter, service charge although optional added to bill, won’t be back. Started off ok and shown to table. Wanted chicken tikka with a sauce on side, can’t do this so had the Chicken Ruby. Cooked well enough but tasted like tin of tomato soup with spices added. Started arrived with no chutneys, thought I may have been mistaken so ate. They then arrived after my main was delivered. Waitress asked if everything was ok, but before I could answer had turned to have conversation with colleague and both walked off. Upon receiving bill I was asked if I was ok with Service Charge, which I wasn’t due to above, removed but all pleasantries disappeared from waitress. In way out, the door person was staring aimlessly into space, not even a passing thanks for coming, please come again. Definitely want be coming back.

We visited this restaurant while on vacation. I enjoyed the ambiance, the decor, the music, our server, and, most importantly, the food! I had the chef's specialty, which was a lamb dish. It was very tender and extremely flavorful. My husband enjoyed his dish as well. I would go back in a heartbeat!

Extremely Disappointing. We arrived and were shown to our table. Nice place with good vibe about it however that’s where it stops. My Wife is Vegan and Gluten Free which is usually one of the best places for her to eat is an Indian Restaurant. Server not helpful at all with the menu and it was very scarce with really nothing to suit her, eventually she picked a dish. I ordered a chicken dish but unlike any other Indian Restaurants definitely don’t accommodate any deviation from the menu. Food arrived and my wives was not a nice taste and my dish extremely bland. Service asked us what we thought and I said it was very bland and my wives did not taste good either. No real reply so we asked for the bill (Service Charge !!!), paid and left. Would certainly not go back, the appeal must be the Vibe in the place as it is certainly not for the food. We eat predominantly Indian food either at home or when dining out and this was certainly not of the standards we are used to, basically a Chain Restaurant with Take It or Leave it Attitude. Definitely one to avoid.

this spot was highly recommended by 2 different locals. food was good (daal wasn't so great) but the server was terrible. it doesn't take much to serve one person, but was almost invisible to him. lively atmosphere, not too loud, but the server just put a damper on my experience.

Great location in St Andrews Square. We had a wait time of around 45 minutes but we sat in the bar and had drinks, very pleasant staff here; warm and welcoming. The food was lovely and good value, however we felt the wine was very overpriced for an 11% wine, £39! There is a 12.5% service charge, I do think this is too much for the level of service offered. Will we be back? Probably but we won’t have wine.

We had been meaning to try Dishoom. The curry (chicken ruby) itself was great, however only had a couple of bits of chicken in it, which, for £15 is underwhelming. They also could not make it spicier, so offered to add chillies to I'm The naan bread was also lovely, however we were given two measly pieces, which, again, for the price, is disappointing. Overall, I do not think the quality/quantity of the food matches the pricepoint, and I wouldn't return.

We have been to Dishoom in London so had to try it again when we found a restaurant in Edinburgh. A little bit of a wait but we’ve always had to wait for Dishoom. We were quickly sent down to the bar to wait where the waitress was very attentive. Our pager buzzed before we even got our drinks. Really delicious food! The restaurant was very busy so a little noisy but I cannot fault the food or service at all

I was really looking forward to try Dishoom and it completely lived up to my expectations. We sat down the stairs and enjoyed some drinks while we waited for our table to be ready. We were initially told 30/40 minutes wait however the table became available earlier! Daniel was our waiter and he did a great job in explaining the menu to us. He recommended that we get a starter, main and a side to share between me and my Mum. This was a great idea as we both left full and no food went to waste. I enjoyed the way that we were checked up on during our meal as we often needed more water due to the spice… 😂 We will be making a return. And the beer was very tasty too 🍺🤔

I've eaten at Dishoom twice now and I've come to the conclusion that I'd just not go back. The restaurant itself is classy and stylish, and the staff are very knowledgeable on allergens, which is a big plus as I'm strictly gluten free. In terms of allergen knowledge, it's certainly one of the few venues I've eaten at where the staff really know their stuff. Ie: The waitress I spoke with went on numerous occasions to check with the kitchen about what dishes were safe to eat, what part of the kitchen they were cooked in, for example. The fundamental issue I have, and what's stopping me from returning here is with the pricing and the quality of the food. On both occasions i've ordered Chicken Ruby. It comes out very quickly and the portion I got was small, especially considering the curry (note here, this isn't including rice) is an eye watering £12.50 and the chicken used has been quite stringy (I also experienced this when one of my colleagues took me to the Carnaby branch in London recently). I'd expect the Chicken to be better quality for the price point. There are plenty of other eateries in Edinburgh to experience Indian/Bombay cuisine, and I'm afraid this is one I'd not recommend or return to.

We had an absolutely lovely time at Dishoom Edinburgh. We ordered plates to share between six of us with various dietary requirements (veggie, vegan, lactose intolerant, normal) and Dishoom offered plentiful fantastic options for all of us. The black daal is my favourite food and it does not disappoint! I could not recommend it more. A new discovery for us tonight was also the jackfruit biryani—the saffron, spice, and sweet raisin flavours mixed perfectly. The highlight, however, was the impeccable customer service. We were served by a lovely Australian woman (Nicki?) who was a friendly beam of sunshine. She was attentive and refilled our bottomless chais very promptly :)

Most rushed meal experience ever. Dishoom should have warned us ahead:1. No chance to eat our meal in the slot of 1h 30 allocated.2. The amount of food was too much for six people. We ended up packing in take away pods most of our mains.3. Even our deserts of ice cream were given on our way out so had to eat them in the street.For the amount of money paid we would have appreciated some advice and warning about all the above. We ended up really disappointed, frustrated and stressed at the end.Shame because the food was delicious and the service was good rather than the constant rushing to us. Dishoom should not allow any booking for a large group after 4.00 pm.

My family are obsessed with dishoom and my mum and dad are always going to dishoom for breakfast. They can’t see past it. We tried to book this weekend for breakfast but unfortunately but understandably it was full. Instead we went for the lunch option. Which did not disappoint. As a starter we shared a “small plate” of spicy prawns which were delicious! My boyfriend had the ruby something curry? It was delicious and had such a lovely sauce. Perfect. I had a biryani rice dish with chicken and cranberries and other berries. Also amazing. However I think it was better because I got some of the sauce from my boyfriends curry. His food didn’t come with rice so he shared some of my dish. We also had a garlic naan to share which was absolutely delicious. We had a hot chocolate and a mocha too! It came to about £46 which is quite steep for a lunch but we will definitely return and it’s completely worth it. Also love how you can pay by just scanning a code at your table! So simple and easy! I have the cookbook at home which I also highly recommend! Staff were friendly and helpful and cheerful. My only one criticism would be that they seemed very eager to take the plates away. Felt a little rushed. Will definitely be back, again and again and again.

Finally a nice Indian restaurant; lovely food. We tried the black dahl curry, cooked for 24h, unbelievably tasty, accompanied with a garlicky naan. Just the perfect lunch! Even the okra fries,yas! So crunchy!

Arrived for a midweek lunch and was immediately impressed with the measures taken to make the restaurant covid-safe. The member of staff at the door welcomed us by name - which I was delighted by - as we were ushered to our table to be greeted by another friendly member of the team. The menu was explained and the food we selected was delivered quickly and was exceptional. The flavours were pretty outstanding with fresh aromatic notes complementing the spice. We enjoyed our meal hugely and the service was fantastic.

Realmente disfrutamos de nuestra comida aquí. Tiene un buen ambiente animado y el personal lo hace sentir bienvenido y se toma el tiempo para charlar. Era el cumpleaños de mi pareja que mencioné en el formulario de reserva. Le trajeron un pudín de chocolate con una vela, después de que terminamos nuestra comida, que me pareció un toque encantador. Podría haberme quedado todo el día bebiendo y pidiendo platos pequeños. Toda la comida fue fabulosa que probamos, recomendaría el Ruby Murray, samosas de cordero, gambas y martini especial. Definitivamente volveremos a probar más elementos del menú.

Vinimos aquí para cenar y desayunar y nos encantaron ambos. El ambiente es fabuloso. El personal es excelente, Viktor fue nuestro camarero en el desayuno y qué tipo tan maravilloso, una verdadera ventaja para este restaurante. La comida está funcionando y una excelente relación calidad-precio. El servicio está incluido y si no lo estuviera, felizmente habría dado más propina. El Daal negro es para morirse. La casa Chaat es una necesidad absoluta y estaré soñando con esos naans de tocino hasta que regresemos a Edimburgo. quiéralo .

Nos recomendaron reservar Dishoom y nos alegramos mucho de haberlo hecho. La primera vez aquí, el personal fue encantador y fantástico al explicar el menú y recomendar platos. Entre 2 de nosotros tuvimos 5 platos que nos pareció una buena cantidad. A los dos nos encantó la koliwada de gambas y pollo ruby. Definitivamente volveremos.

Nuestra primera visita y no será la última. Descubierto Dishoom hace un tiempo en la clasificación de la prensa nacional entre los diez primeros en el país en cuanto a comida, nos vimos obligados a probarlo mientras visitábamos Edimburgo. Todas las medidas de Covid estaban en su lugar. El personal fue agradable, servicial y profesional y se tomó el tiempo para explicar el menú que ciertamente era diferente en muchos aspectos. Siguiendo la guía y las recomendaciones, pedimos pequeñas porciones de degustación para maximizar nuestra experiencia. Papilas gustativas 'WOW' hormigueando con Ruby Murray, pollo con chile, chuletas de cordero encurtidos y salsas naan de ajo y más.La cocina de la planta baja estaba abierta para que todos la vieran. El aroma de la variedad de carnes a la brasa cocinadas sobre brasas creaba el ambiente perfecto. Todo el lugar estaba lleno de profesionalismo.Nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos y nos sentimos muy especiales, aunque solo éramos dos, entre lo que era una casa llena.Sin duda volveremos cuando esté en Edimburgo y quizás haga un punto de visitar otros restaurantes Dishoom de la cadena.

Este restaurante es mi descubrimiento que hice una vez que vine por primera vez a Escocia. Comida increíble, servicio al cliente rápido y excelente. Todos los platos que he probado aquí han sido geniales. En la última visita nos atendió el miembro del personal Víctor, que nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos.

Estoy seguro de que su pareja quedará impresionado por usted. Completamente profesional, vale la pena dedicarle tiempo. Mi cónyuge y yo teníamos ganas de visitar un auténtico restaurante de Mumbai. Techos altos, ambiente, verdes te hacen sentir rico e increíble.Pedimos Samosa, Roti, paneer curry, Jackfruit Biriyani y TEA?.Debes probar el té en este lugar. Eso es totalmente una cereza en la parte superior..También visitamos en nuestro aniversario. Este restaurante es un poco más caro que otros restaurantes indios en Edimburgo. Estoy seguro de que verá por qué la diferencia de precio cuando visite este lugar..¿Vegetarianos? ‍ ?? ¿Pide jaclfruit biriyani para calmar su paladar?.¿Debes visitar?

Pasé a almorzar. Tenía un par de platos pequeños, pollo Chiili y langostinos Koliwada, paneer roll y ajo naan. Salsa deliciosa lo acompañó todo y todo estaba tan fresco. El personal era amable, eficiente y servicial. ¡Grita especialmente a Ali que nos sirvió! Él era genial.Sin duda volveremos cuando estemos en Edimburgo. Gracias

Fantástica visita para el almuerzo, el ambiente es perfecto y me encanta la decoración, una verdadera sensación de lo que imagino que sería un café en la Bombay de los años 20.La comida es genial, fuimos por las Samosas con Chicken Ruby y Biryani (también probamos algo de la "salsa" de los otros platos). Viktor explicó bien los platos y también dio buenos consejos sobre alergias, excelente servicio muy atento y definitivamente volveremos.

Visitamos Edimburgo y siempre habíamos querido visitar un restaurante Dishoom. No nos decepcionó. La comida, el personal y el ambiente fueron excelentes. El camarero estaba muy bien informado y, como era nuestra primera visita, explicó cómo funcionaba el menú. La comida era excelente y volveremos a visitar.

Apareció por impulso. Buscando buena comida y bebida. Dios mío, qué deliciosa sorpresa. Primera visita y definitivamente no es la última. El restaurante cumple todas las recomendaciones sobre Corona, se siente seguro y bien cuidado. El personal fue super atento y amable. La comida estuvo deliciosa y la señora explicó todos los platos y su experiencia fue bienvenida. Recomendaría el Sauvignon Blanc austriaco, era un vino nuevo que estaban probando y tuve una copa gratis. Deshonesto se presenta como un buen restaurante antiguo, cálido y súper amigable y no puedo calificar la comida o el personal lo suficiente.

My third time visiting Dishoom. The staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful, and go into great depth when explaining the menu. Each and every dish we tried was extremely tasty. My favourite restaurant in Edinburgh.

Fui aquí para pedir comida para llevar. Me dijeron que "para mantenerme a salvo, solo podía comer adentro". Le pedí a la persona que repitiera esto dos veces y dos veces obtuve la misma respuesta. ¿Por qué creen que es más seguro comer en su restaurante lleno de gente que llevar la comida a mi apartamento?No hace falta decir que fui a otro lado, conseguí comida para llevar y me sentí seguro en mi casa.

Mi novio y yo visitamos Dishoom anoche y estamos muy contentos de haberlo hecho. El servicio fue excelente y muy atento, la comida era para morirse. ¡Todavía estoy soñando con el daal negro cocido a fuego lento! Teníamos el vada Pau, que es una versión india de un butty de patatas fritas (muy sabroso), luego las patatas con pólvora, el daal negro y un plato de verduras al lado. Los platos, aunque pequeños a la llegada, son engañosamente abundantes y absolutamente deliciosos. Recomendaría Dishoom a cualquiera, y la próxima vez que estemos en Edimburgo, sin duda volveremos.

Cenamos aquí una vez hace 2 años (increíble). yoSabía que quería volver para tener aquí la comida de mi 40 cumpleaños. Reservamos con mucha antelación antes de viajar. Dios mío, no me decepcionó. Langostinos, chk, cordero, dedos de dama, arroz y pan nann fueron una delicia. El servicio fue excepcionalmente rápido, super amable + siempre a mano. Este lugar hizo que mi cumpleaños fuera memorable. Un toque encantador para recibir un postre gratis con una vela. Recomendado diferente aquí. muchas gracias personal de Dishoom

Hemos estado en Dishoom Edinburgh para cenar durante tres noches, durante nuestro viaje de una semana a Edimburgo. Desde la primera noche, el personal que conocimos y nos acogió fue increíble; cálida, amistosa y muy profesional. Bajo la mirada de Baba, un gran Gerente experimentado, asegurando que todos los huéspedes reciban una gran experiencia. Por supuesto, la comida también era increíble. Viajo por negocios, y esta es realmente la mejor comida india que he probado, tan auténtica y deliciosa. ¡Un gran agradecimiento a Prateek y su personal, que tradujeron a Edimburgo los sabores y los sabores de Mumbai! Probamos muchos platos diferentes, y todo fue absolutamente bueno, sabroso y fresco, así que confíe en probar lo que más lo inspire. Mis favoritos: Langostinos Koliwada; Pollo Ruby (curry) con un tazón de arroz Basmati; Casa Black Daal; un fabuloso pan naan con ajo; Cuenco de verduras. Para el postre, asegúrese de no perderse el increíble pudín de chocolate: una suave mousse de chocolate negro, con una pizca de sal marina y un increíble helado picante a un lado. ¡El final perfecto para la cena! Una vez más, no podemos agradecer lo suficiente a todo el personal de Dishoom Edimburgo, una familia real, y no mencionar aquí ningún nombre porque seguramente me olvidaré de alguien y será una vergüenza para mí. ¡GRACIAS!

Escuché mucho sobre el famoso desayuno en el restaurante indio contemporáneo, así que decidí echarle un vistazo. Y está a la altura de las expectativas. Y más.Situado en el corazón de la moderna calle Andrews Square, puedes ver Dishoom por la larga cola que hay fuera, incluso por la mañana.Un asistente realmente servicial en la puerta nos guió a la recepción, donde nos dirigieron por unas escaleras. Las escaleras eran bastante estrechas y empinadas, pero el lugar tiene un gran toque tradicional. Está realmente espaciado.A pesar de ser jueves por la mañana, estaba muy ocupado con una mezcla constante de personas, desde familias hasta tipos de negocios.Nuestro camarero fue genial, repasando el menú y reiterando los aspectos de salud con la situación actual.Fui por el rollo nann de tocino y huevo y lo regué con una cerveza que venía en un vaso esmerilado. También comí un poco de pan de fuego y un par de trozos de morcilla vegana, que fue la primera vez para mí.Todo en el lugar es magnífico. La comida era increíble, el servicio fue fantástico y el ambiente relajado con grandes ventanales mirando hacia la calle Andrews Square ofrece una vista impresionante.Bien merece una visita. El mejor desayuno que he tenido en un restaurante en mucho tiempo.

Me and my partner came here to celebrate our anniversary, and the staff at the restaurant made us feel so special! Our server was called Ahmed, and he was brilliant! Gave us suggestions on what's good to eat, and he was so kind! We had lots of food, all of it was delicious! We came during Eat out to Help Out, so the value for money was great. Would recommend the Prawn Koliwada, Black Daal and Salli Boti!

Four of us went for breakfast which was amazing! Naan rolls with bacon and egg,sides of spicy sausage, fire toast and unlimited chai latte, all so delicious. In addition to this wonderful feast of food the staff are the happiest, most helpful, genuine people I've had the good fortune to meet in a very long time. They looked after my partially sighted mum and anticipated her needs with genuine care and smiles. And when they knew it was a family anniversary they gave us a chilli chocolate desert with a candle in it which was such a lovely thought. It's an absolute favourite now and I've not stopped raving about it!

This place permanently changed my expectations of butter chicken, in a good way! We've only ever got their food delivered, so I can't comment on the restaurant itself, but their curries are to die for
