Ignite in Edinburgh, City of

Order arrived with no salad or sauce for the 2 kebabs. I was told I chose no sauce (because the usual sauce is not listed) but I left a note to include it. It should come with salad and sauce anyway! Bad customer service on the phone.

Randomly looking somewhere to eat passed by at this restaurant, my partner loves indian food so we tried. Friendly and polite staff, we didnt book they’re not that busy and they welcomed us, it took 15mins and food is served. The fastest outside dinner we had 🤭 Higly recommend.

i didn't received my order and it shows order was delivered

Absolutely solid terrific Indian elevated food worth every penny near Haymarket station in Edinburgh and next to a bunch of other good pubs

Food was very nice. The problem is waiter he is maybe Pakistani guy he’s behaviour is very bad without my permission. He touch my hand to see my watch and he’s saying to me is real or fake. I feel very embarrassed . Then I just eat food and leave the restaurant . Very very bad experience . I’m just trying to say to you, mate if you doesn’t have anything expensive in your life work hard, you can get it, but don’t judge the people . in this world some people have successful Courier in my age. thank you.

Great value. Really big portions

This is my favourite restaurant in Edinburgh. Excellent service and very tasty food with good sized portions. Just a great experience all round!

The food was cold and had to be heated up

But more food colour use, I don’t buy again

I asked the waiter if they had butter chicken, as it was not apparent on the menu, and he said "of course". I re-confirmed and he said "yes". When the dish arrived, it was more jalfrizi and certainly did not resemble butter chicken. I asked the waiter what it was and he said "butter chicken- the way they do it" which is complete nonsense. Go spend your money at a place that does not lie to you.

Wonderful food, lovely attentive staff…our first time here & wont be our last….won’t look anywhere else…that impressed…

Delicious food, reasonably priced. Best Indian food in Edinburgh and lovely staff! We never go anywhere else for a curry !

Fantastic food, great service. Portions were a very good size - two of us both had a main, but shared a side, a naan and a rice. The saag paneer was on a part with Kaani Kaana (rated best Asian takeaway in the UK!).

Quite good food and nice people. Recommended!

Excellent, best Indian food in Edinburgh. Fresh spices and herbs. You must try!

Spotless restaurant, friendly, the food was delicious. Good quality food and good amount too. Would recommend this restaurant

Very poor experience from a local restaurant which online ratings led us to believe would be good. A couple of weeks ago, after work, my partner and I decided to give a new Bengali/Indian restaurant a try during the middle of the week. We booked in advance to confirm use of a common offer available on Tastecard. Between two, we ordering a drink, a side, a large curry and two naans but the staff insisted we must order more to use it. They were rude and made us feel uncomfortable in an empty restaurant. We considered staying but didn’t want to order too much food so paid for a drink and left without ever trying it. Although living close by, we will not be returning to this restaurant. There are so many great places to eat only a short walk up Dalry Road or towards Lothian Road. There is no reason to treat anyone how they did us. I wonder whether this was because they expect customers to order alcohol and non-veg food for a few extra pennies?! A shame not to have tried out this local restaurant but we would have felt worse if we stayed.

A late night dinner at this restaurant that we had visited some years previously Despite the time we were accommodated As ever food was good, service very friendly and we left stuffed and happy

very good food and friendly delivery driver, will definitely order from here again

Worst experience ever!!! They try to scam you. If you want to eat a £5-£15 dish they will say you have to spend additional £18 for no reason at all

Excellent quality of food, meat very tender and good size portions both madras and jalfreizi. Very friendly and professional restaurant staff and fast delivery service, courier very professional and friendly.

Reception was rather rude. No manners. Using the name Bengali as namesake only.

They didnt let us come in because they said they dont have a seat for my 2 year old daughter. And they also said they didnt have a place for her buggy, which is foldable. they just didnt let us sit. we had to come out.

Food was absolutely delicious!! Variety of starters and main courses to choose from. Service was fantastic! Highly recommend 👌

Food is amazing every single time ! Staff are amazing and so welcoming and go the extra mile . Can’t wait to sit in

Another terrific meal and excellent service once again. My son had a very tasty chicken buhna and I had garlic chilli lamb. Lovely. Cannot fault the fault. Thanks again guys, see you soon.

Delivery was brillant . The food was unreal from the vegetable rice to the chicken japuiri and the chicken vindaloo . We will defo order again

Visited as part of a stag weekend. Fantastic welcome and the food was amazing. If you are in Edinburgh, I would definitely recommend. The staff were brilliant and the food was so tasty. Thank you

We chanced upon this restaurant on an unplanned evening, being an Indian as well as Bengali myself I was quite excited about the prospective dinner. Staff was extremely friendly and welcomed us with a smile, got us a table even though it was a busy Friday night. We orderd chciken dhansak, egg fried rice and aloo bhaji. Here’s my take on the food. The masala in the curries were undercooked and heavily tomato based (uncooked tomato) which is far from how Indian or Bengali curries are in general. The authentic dhansak curry is extremely aromatic with a variety of masala along with different kinds of lentils, and when fully cooked the lentils and the vegetables are completely mixed, none of which happened here. Similarly with aloo bhaiji, first of all Aloo Bhaja in Bengali means fried potato(either slices or small sizes), secondly even if this Aloo Sabji, the size of the potato (too large!) and the uncooked tomato (again too large pieces!) just threw me off completely. The chef should look into the cooking as this is far from authentic curries (to the other people who mentioned they have had a LOT OF CURRIES and this is the best curry - guess they never had a good Indian or Bengali curry). I want to reiterate in the fact that the staff was extremely courteous, welcoming and friendly, so 5 stars to the service. To the management and chef,I hope you do better with the food and ensure you are serving people authentic food since you are representing two extremely rich cusines , all Bangladeshi people I know happen to be amazing cooks, I am sure you can do better. All the best!

It was 2 hours 20 minutes late. Just worse delivery service I have ever had. Unsubscribing and deleting your app, will never use again.

Perfect little Indian restaurant. Was delighted by the quality of food and service! My server was an amazing man who was surprised at me ordering a vindaloo! Absolutely brilliant place! Nice cozy and cosy even going by myself. Must try if you're in Edinburgh.

We really delicious food and excellent service from the most consistent Indian restaurant in Edinburgh.

the delivery driver attitude was terrible, my order was 17.00 I gave him 20.00 easy 3 pound change he then preceeded to give my change in 5,10,20 I explained that I had a stroke and asked for coins instead he said no walked and I dropped the change which i wasn't able to pick up and lost a percentage of it, I use this service a lot and not happy

I had lunch here before the Scotland France 6 Nations match. It is conveniently situated near Haymarket station and is a great place to have a pre match lunch or post match dinner! Despite it being choc a bloc the staff were courteous professional and helpful. The food was authentic tasty and well presented. I would definitely cone again

I don’t want to recommend this place. The food was very disappointing.The cheese Nan wasn’t cheesy at all. Very overpriced and not tasty at all. The atmosphere is terrible.the next table was extremely loud we couldn’t even enjoy the drinks too.

Food cold due to delivery drive not getting message , took 2 hours for delivery .

Great food. Small and well run restaurant.

was amazing food, lovely flavours and good atmosphere. the service was 10/10. highly recommend.

Firstly there’s minimum amount order restriction and then if you don’t want to go ahead with it, they will ask you to leave. Rude manager. Looking busy doing nothing.

The food was excellent. Late but maybe that’s because of the time of year,delivery driver polite. Asked for 2 chapatis on the order. Only got 1. I will still order again though food is excellent.

Best authentic Indian curry’s in Edinburgh with generous amounts of meat in each. Great service from Imran as well!

Food was great, service by just eat was diabolical. Order was asked to be within 1 hr 10 mins of ordering yet they managed to deliver my order 40 minutes late. Poor poor poor delivery service.

Nice food. Good service. Not too expensive . What's not too like!

My favourite restaurant. Never been disappointed. Thank you for your great service

One of our favourite places to eat . Food just amazing & lovely friendly staff. Been coming Here many years . Chicken Sag. Lamb Pathia . Rice & Nan. We have been taking family & friends here & all have enjoyed the experience . So deserves the awards over the years 🙏

We ordered a large takeaway and we were really well looked after. Great food and very friendly staff. Would recommend. The app was very easy to use

●Yuck yuck yuck● •Rude staff •RANK food •No deserters

Friendly staff. Nice decor. Good food. Decent prices.

Bestes indisches Restaurant in Edinburgh. Sehr freundliche Betreiber. Ausgezeichnetes Essen. Für Familien mit vielen Kindern gut geeignet. Gerne wieder.

We were wandering aimlessly, admonishing ourselves for not planning our evening meal better, and we happened upon this gem. They had a table for 2! Yay! The service was wonderful. The food was amazing. The prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend!

Love this small Indian restaurant we've been going for years and it's never disappointed us

Great food as normal but the delivery time was changed 3 times from ordering, past eating by the time it arrived :(

Ordered on just eat after a long train journey. Walked from Haymarket station, collected my order and headed home. Friendly staff, busy restaurant and a great curry.

Friendly and welcoming. Good food and service.

Coming from Leicester I eat a few curries and I have to say this was one of the best 10/10.

Had a meal with my friends in ignite and it was absolutely delicious. I am always use to came here and never disappointed .Their foods are always great. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. My friend had chicken Jaipure as recommended waiter and he said best curry he had. Well done again ignite 👍

I don't even wanna give this restaurant one start.very arrogant and rude staff who don't have manner to talk with their costumer. Should appoint well trained staffs...This restaurant is very avaricious. All they care about is money.. every person needs to spend £18 even in group. We are not allowed to take a light meal.. Such a pathetic rule and when we tried to ask further about the rule he was like this is not a local restaurant behaving as if it was 7 star hotel and started to treat like no money then you can leave. What a of pathetic mannered staff.. -ve star for this restaurant

Prawn puree was amazing to start with, Chicken Jalfrezi was also delicious. Lovely welcoming staff and very friendly vibes. Special Fried Rice and Garlic Nan completed the evening meal. Would highly recommend in the Haymarket area and definitely will be back.

Food was excellent and flavoursome. The spicy fried aubergine was a particular hit. Service was also quick and efficient. 10/10

We had a very terrible experience in the restaurant. They have a policy of minimum order of £18 pounds in the evening. We wanted a light meal and ordered a small portion only. The guy taking the order did not have manner at all and the way he talked with us really surprised us. When we asked more about the policy and confronted him about the way he was speaking with us, he started talking about the cost and money for cleaning table clothes. We were shocked to get such a response. Terrible experience. The staff need to learn manners.

The staff was really rude to me and my family. When we ordered small meal he started talking about money.He said we are not allowed to order small meal and should order larger meal. He also told us that the restaurant spend so much money on cutlery and maintenance so you will need to order more food and cannot order small portion.. He said “we are not like other small restaurant ”. I don’t t know how some one just say they are big restaurant. He even point the menu lots of time said one person must spend more then 18 pounds and The way he spokes with us was really really rude and unexceptionable .We were shocked. Really had bad experience. Don’t recommend the place.

Rudest staff ever. I don’t know about restaurants but when try to order the meal he started taking about money. The way he spoked to us was really rude and unexceptionable. He was commanding that we need to order heavy meal and cant order small portion. One person needs to order meal more than 18 pound???. That was ok but the way he spoked. I will never go back to the restaurant. Don’t recommend

Ignite is a lovely restaurant serving Bangladesh and Indian cuisine. Visited on spec on a Friday and a party of 8 could be accommodated. The food was truly delicious, with nobody disappointed, and the service was excellent too. Definitely recommended.

Consistently excellent food. Consistently excellent service.

A great Indian restaurant. The food and service are excellent and for a fair price. We had a relaxed evening with the family.

Despite not being here for a while, (as they no longer do lunches) we were warmly welcomed by Imran and the team. As ever, immaculate sparkling table, gentle professional service, and delicious food. Jahlfrieze king prawns were perfect, partner's chicken khani likewise. Nan was a bit different, pilau rice lovely, though a little light in portion size. Lunch deals were exceptional value, so did find the dinner prices quite high. However, guess you get what you pay for!

Best Indian food in Edinburgh. Delicious, flavourful, perfectly cooked starters and mains. The lamb kebabs in the non-vegetarian starter platter were perfectly seasoned, tender and succulent. Our mains were exceptional. Very generous portion sizes. Great place for a date night with brilliant service and relaxing atmosphere. Thank you very much, we will definitely be back soon.

Delicious food, would recommend the chicken nentara and lamb rougan josh. Both fantastic, good-sized naan too.

Great ambiance, great food and service. The menu is extensive and being four of us we were able to experience eight different dishes, all of them excellent. Very reasonable prices.

Great service, delicious food.

I've been many times before, and the food is consistently good. Very busy at this time of year due to the festival but still able to get a table with no reservation. One quibble, we were asked if we wanted coffee at the end which I would normally not bother with however asked for an expresso this time. The chap put three spoons of nescaffe instant into a cup with a little water. Horrible and not what was asked for. He shouldn't be asking if they don't have...Left a nasty taste in the mouth (so to speak!)

Amazing place will definitely be back.

Pakora beautifully crisp, lamb was tender and a good sized portion.

I love this wee gem just round the corner from Haymarket station. The food was delicious and even on a busy evening the service was second to none. Special shout out to Mumtaz who looked after us all evening. Highly recommend for great tasting food and a warm welcome!

Great food, had the pompadoms and a nice and spicy jaipuri chicken, great customer service as well! All of my friends also enjoyed theirs food, and drank plenty of cobra. Very nice!!! 😚🇰🇿

Great food, great service. The staff really went the extra mile. Authentic menu that was delivered to perfection. Would recommend.

Excellent curry and great service. The tablecloths are white and this indicates cleanliness and quality. The beers are cold - enough said.

Avoid like the plague. Terribly rude staff, double booked, no apologies, did their best to ignore those who had booked but they’d places had been taken by others. Horrible experience. Used to be a great eatery with super polite staff. A disaster zone now.

First visit and good food and service

Food and service was excellent

Best Indian restaurant in Edinburgh! Great staff, excellent food.

Bang average. Pretty bland generic stuff and ages over the alloted delivery time.

Nice friendly staff, nice music playing just in the background. Food was excellent and authentic taste, no red sauce in sight.

Food was OK, standard Indian fare. Great service etc

Good d quality Indian food modified for western tastes.

Four of us went to Ignite in Haymarket on a busy Saturday evening, Food and service was excellent Will be back again.

Food was very bland, far too much coriander in everything, service was good and efficient, disappointed overall given the hype.

Excellent food & the staff were lovely, thank you

It's OK and handy for Haymarket Railway Station

Great food and on time! Would certainly order again!

Was in with a group friends I would have given 5 stars just the service was slow friendly staff food was excellent

Delicious food - but delivery person couldn't find the door so phoned to locate us

As ever great food, but failed to deliver 2 starters which had been paid for. Yet to receive a satisfactory solution.

Very cozy and friendly athmosphere and very good, and spicy, food!

First class service and food. Nothing else can be said.

Driver hadn’t the decency to drive down to the hotel. Phoned me, from the top of the road.

Best ever meal from an India takeaway, starters, mains, breads just 1st class thank you

£23 for a naan bread and a king prawn curry (maybe 5 prawns) - that doesn’t include any drinks or service - in a very average setting. Standard “British” curry house, nothing special, maybe they think they can charge what they like as they are...

Lovely meal and excellent service. True champions in the world of high street curry houses. Will be back again soon.

J’ai été franchement déçu en particulier après la lecture des avis très positifs. Le restaurant et le service sont de...
