Lovely small quiet place with great ambience, delicious food and friendly service. If you want something different this is the place to go. I love Ethiopian food and it just happened to be the special that night!

De vegan falafel, vegan kaas en aubergine wrap was echt lekker. En de man die er werkte was echt superlief. We hebben er met z'n tweetjes gegeten en gedronken voor de lunch voor 20 pond, dus ook betaalbaar

Wonderful gem in Edinburgh. Small but cozy restaurant with comforting and extremely tasty food and affordable prizes. The staff is extremely kind and welcoming. The kitchen is open until 4pm, so perfect for those going for a late lunch. Will be coming back frequently.

Was in Edinburgh and I had time to kill, and after being on the go all day, was in need of something to eat. Looking at what was close, Khartoum Cafe took my fancy. Not a greasy kebab shop, but a rather nice little sit down cafe (that also does food to go) and for 4pm on a Saturday afternoon, it was really busy. Great choice of Vegan food, but their wraps are a must! Ordered the Falafal and Hummus wrap to go, and was freshly prepared in no time. Staff are VERY inviting, and if in the area again, I would come here for a sit down meal.

Dropped in here whilst meandering to a show. I wasn’t acting on recommendation nor my usual Google review rabbit hole, but absolutely over the moon that we found this place. Simple, authentic food, fuul (sorry) of fava, I mean flavour. Vegetarian options were great, and gluten free requirements comfortably met, in part by an amazing teff flour flat bread. Final word, the two chaps who served were great. They had infectious smiles and went above and beyond. Couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience.

This restaurant was recommended to me by a friend who lives in Edinburgh—and wow, what a phenomenal meal! We got coffee, wraps with fries and chili sauce, baklava and basbousa. The wraps and fries were a perfect size, beautifully spiced, and a good balance of chicken and vegetable. The coffee had cardamon in it which paired with all the heat from the spices in the wrap in the most pleasant way. Finally, the basbousa and baklava were beautifully plated, and everything we had hoped for. The baklava was a notably generous portion—I’d say sharable, but then 1 bite in it was clearly too easy to eat every single bite myself. It was a cold, grey day but this meal was a tonic, warming to the very core. Thank you!

The food I had here was fantastic! I highly recommend trying one of the entree dishes that has tahini in it; the lamb plate I got with the sesame oil option was addictively good, basically a curry with a delicious sesame base flavor. Also the two owners running the restaurant were lovely and visited with me after my meal. Highly recommend Khartoum Cafe for its wholesome vibes and its amazing food.

Outstanding. Deserving of every 5 start rating, an absolutely delicious place for a wrap, soup or salad. This saved my culinary day. The owner is a lovely resident of Edinburgh, Omar. The wrap was simple, humble and delicious. I really enjoyed the fusion of flavour with Sudanese and Mediterranean Flavor. The chili harrissa with preserved lemon was just outstanding. Wraps and Salads are always available as is the delicious Vegan Banana, Oak and Sultana cake. They have a more extensive menu that is available weekends. If you would like to try on a weekday, give the restaurant a call to see what they have available. Truly a gem in Bruntsfield.

Any trip to Edinburgh is a waste if you don't stop here in my opinion. It's such a great little restaurant to pop in for some lunch. Personal favourite of mine is the jerk chicken wrap and if you like spicy food ask for some of the hot sauce to go with. The hot sauce seems to rotate as the first one I had was very spicy peanut sauce and the last was hibiscus chilli sauce but they're always great. The portion of baklava is very generous and great with a cup of tea or coffee. The gentleman who runs this place is very nice and welcoming Can't wait for my next visit
