NeighbourWood in Edinburgh, City of

One of the best restaurants in Edinburgh. Food is always amazing, staff are friendly and attentive to our order and give us complimentary tea or soup for Iftar in Ramadan, which is a very nice gesture. Would definitely recommend this restaurant, my personal favourite in Edinburgh or even in Scotland.

I had shawarma sandwich and it was yummy

Brilliant quality of food and service Opposit tram stop Balfour Street

God bless god bless I swear to God, it is the best restaurant I have eaten in in Scotland, and the young people who are fed, may God bless them. May God bless you and give you a thousand good health, and increase you again and again. And the prices are very reasonable

Small but excellent food and great service!

Amazing food, I have been a customer since opening and a chicken shawarma meal is a regular treat for me, don’t go elsewhere as it’s not the same as NeighbourWood! The owners and staff are all so kind and nice, and most importantly my wee boy loves this place!!

First time here. It was a busy Saturday afternoon. This food is amazing. So tasty. Great portions. Best value for money. Friendly staff. I recommend it.

I was today with some friends . Absolutely lovely staff . Good atmosphere. The food was great . Authentic Syrian restaurant . Must try !

Shawarma was amazing, overall experience was great

Delicious food and really lovely staff.

Great place great people highly recommend the brosted best I’ve had

I had a great meal at Neighborwood Restaurant in Edinburgh. The staff were amazingly friendly. I highly recommend The beef shawarma, and the fried chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy. Definitely worth a visit for good food!

Great experience! The food tasted amazing and was definitely worth the price. A must-try for authentic dishes.

class wrap, great fellas, mint in the falafel wrap absolutely damage 10/10 must eat location - binkbonk

Really friendly people and amazing food

The mixed grill was so delicious! I love Syrian food and this was some of the best I’ve had. The hospitality matched the quality of the food.

Ordered takeaway on a Sunday night. They were very busy so the order took about 20 minutes, which is exactly what was promised. Very friendly service. Excellent food!

Eating at this Syrian restaurant was a highlight of our Scotland holiday. From the moment my four siblings and I entered their establishment, we were welcomed as friends and family by the proprietors. The food was exquisite with appetizers of Syrian chips, muhamarra dip, and falafel (the best we have eaten anywhere), and entrées of mixed grill plates, wraps, and roast chicken. Our Syrian feast culminated in complementary black tea with fresh mint and sliced lemons. We couldn’t ask for more from a dining experience and it will forever be a sweet memory of our great time in Scotland. Thank you, Neighourwood Syrian Restaurant. Shukran.

The chicken kabobs - spectacular! The Syrian chips - the best! The camaraderie with the NeighbourWood “family” - warming! All who dine here will be more than satisfied!

Lovely people and great food! Come in if you want a warm hug from the atmosphere. Free tea and smiles for all

Food is tasty but the service needs improvement

I had a great unforgettable experience the staff were very welcoming and served us with the most tantalising food will definitely be back here

Very friendly staff and amazing food, affordable prices

We went to this restaurant after we arrived in Edinburgh, and it was so delicious!!! The food is amazing. Even though we only had a week in town, we went there 2 or 3 times. This was about a year and a half ago, and I still think about going back!

Best Shwarma I’ve had in town. Staff are sound as they come and the prices extremely fair.

Went there with family, must admit portions are huge, good salad, great meat portions. We ordered chicken which was ok but id recommend shawarma plate. That’s the best. Would recommend for one visit maybe. Depends on your own liking.

Great food, at a great price and always treated really well. Cannot recommend enough.

Fantastic place - my favourite for fresh food, great service and care for how everything is presented- perfect 🤩

Great food, great staff. Lovely place for the Syrian community in Edinburgh, friendly people :)

The shawarma was very delicious. We ordered both chicken and lamb shawarma, and they were both excellent. The staff was very friendly and the place was clean. I highly recommend visiting it. I only have one comment, if you can change the bread or add more types of bread would be amazing.

Excellent food and great service.

Incredible food and the loveliest people run this place! Always fantastic being here

The best hummus! Loved it here, came twice in two days, lovely team and very good food! :)

The food was amazing. We got a lamb Shawarma wrap meal and chicken. The chicken was amazing but the lamb was so good we ordered another one! The staff are really friendly and caring. What a lovely lovely place. A little gem of a place.

Amazing food as usual: the chicken shawarma and the lamb shawarma were delicious, full of flavour, juicy and filling, and the Syrian chips were tasty, with some kind of tangy spice. The staff was kind and friendly. I recommend this place if you're in the neighbourhood!

One of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Scotland. We had been there a week ago and the food was amazing. The place was so clean and comfortable. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. I will go wherever I can.

Good kebab with bbq flavour. Goes well with beer.

Amazing food, real Syrian cuisine & staff are very nice I definitely recommend this restaurant (5 stars)

Best Shawarma I've had in a long time. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the service is absolutely top notch. They go above and beyond and always make you feel welcomed and at home.

One of the best shawarma I had in my recent times It is one of the best Syrian food centre in Edinburgh.

Wonderful food! Falafel so flavourful and fresh. Chips are a must. Syrian tea just delicious!

Number 1 shawrma And good food And best service

Such an amazing place for Syrian cuisine. The food is on point along with the service and staff are so attentive and always eager to assist. Went with many friends without any complaint nor any negative remarks on anything.

One of the best Middle Eastern food place in Edinburgh. The shawarmas are amazing!

Great, authentic, wholesome food. Very kind and friendly staff. Would go again!

Chicken was great, so was the complimentary soup and Syrian tea. Amazing service.

Incredible service and food was lovely

Delicious food enjoyed by all, staff friendly and welcoming.

This is the best shawarma I’ve had in the city of Edinburgh by far. And I’ve eaten a lot of shawarma. The ingredients at neighbourwood are of the highest quality and the recipes are masterfully crafted - simple and extremely effective. All for a very fair price. The guys in there are lovely too.

Amazing shawarmas and lovely staff, always so friendly and welcoming

Need excellent food at a very affordable price? Look no further!

Chicken Shawarma wrap added lettuce. Wrap was DELICIOUS chicken flavourful and tender lettuce fresh and crunchy plenty garlic mayo nicely hot toasted wrap at just under £6 it can't be beat! Staff were friendly and the hot tea was a nice ending. Definitely will be back and just opposite the tram stop so hopefully off get your wrap on and enjoy!

I went with my friend yesterday for iftari and the staff was lovely, food was very nice

Delicious vegan falafel cooked fresh for our studio meeting. Everyone loved it! Neighbourwood is a friendly local wonder and the whole menu looks amazing. HUGE THANKS TO ALL THE HARDWORKING STAFF

Best food ever amazing reccomed to everyone best in Edinburgh all friends come here all the time 😍😍😍😍😍😍😝

Took literally 1 hour and 10 minutes to get the food. Service was so bad. Food was really nice though.

beyond amazing service, everyone who worked there was attentive and friendly. food was spectacular, very juicy chicken and great garlic sauce. the staff also gave us tea and turkish coffee which was delicious and very sweet of them.

Hard to find good kebab and grill in Edinburgh. This ranks on top - great food and amazing value for money. Will be back today

Hands down the best grilled food I've had in Edinburgh. Food was great and the team was super friendly and professional. We'll certainly be back

The best and most authentic shawerma in Edinburgh! We keep coming back as the food is amazing and the staff are really hospitable and friendly , would definitely recommend!

Amazing Syrian shawerma. The crew are very helpful and amazing service

One of the workers had a cigarette with his mouth while he was chopping chicken in the machine.

Very good and tasty! The best in Edinburgh 👍🥰

Very good food and friendly staff

Tasty food. Really welcoming and friendly staff.

Lovely cosy place. We came in for take away shawarma and while we were waiting we were given amazing service by the staff. Can’t recommend this place enough! Food delicious, people warm and friendly, amazing spot 😊

Amazing fresh delicious food everything I ordered was delicious I had lamb shwarma mixed grilled tabuleh salad baba ganoush falafel and lemon mint juice excellent value for money can’t wait to come and try other items on the menu!!!!!’n

The best shawarma I’ve ever eaten!!!

I always recommend this as the best place for both my local and international friends to visit and enjoy a meal 😃

Very bad service very rude I don’t recommend

I tried there grill chicken, which is smelly and not properly cooked waste of time and money not at all recommended.

Had an amazing experience at [Restaurant Name]! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We tried the mixed kebab and shawarma, and both were absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We truly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend!

Very simple, small but still sufficient shop. Snack style. Delicious food. And very nice staff. Very friendly and attentive. Had the BBQ plate. We then got additional rice to taste. tea and water. Great service.

The best kebab I’ve ever had. It was made with love and the Syrian chips are something special. The staff were very welcoming and offered us some complimentary Syria tea. I felt totally relaxed whilst dining here will be retuning so soon!!

Food was amazing😍 affordable with amazing service. Lovely atmosphere if you want to eat in. I’ll definitely be coming again.

I've been there twice, and both times I loved every aspect of my visit. The food is really good, especially their fried chicken—clean, juicy, and tasty. I recommend this place to anyone who has a taste for Syrian cuisine

Such lovely staff and delicious food!

They treat them very well and the food is delicious, God willing

I’d like to thank all the restaurant staff they’re so nice and friendly. The food is so amazing, best Arabic food in Edinburgh. I highly recommend it

Based on my experience of Syrian food unfortunately im not satisfied with food quality and prices I don’t think its deserving the value , however the service is very good .

This place is full of amazing food with hospitable staff. Highly recommend this place for food. Great experience ❤️

Had a great time with some friends the other night. 12/10 service and hospitality, we were offered some tea as well as fattoush salad (which I would highly recommend). Really wonderful staff!!

Great place! Try the chicken wrap, it's awesome

Whilst staying in Leith for a couple of days, I fancied myself a hearty vegan meal and after reviewing the restaurants in the vicinity, NeighbourWood won. Having not tasted Syrian food very often, it was a perfect opportunity to give it another try. I ordered my falafel meal wrap and came to collect it on a Sunday evening. The place was very busy but my order was ready for collection in 15 min. The falafel wrap was very tasty and I did enjoy Syrian chips. Personally, for the price I thought the serving was plentiful and it filled me up nicely. Now I know where I'll be going next time I'm visiting the area. Thank you NeighbourWood 🙏🏼😊

The best oriental food in Edinburgh

Hands down the best shawarma and mixed grill I've ever had! Add in the heartwarming people that work there and it's like a little slice of home!

Food was delicious and spiced well. Don’t mean heat, I mean the cardamom, cinnamon etc. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can’t wait to return.

My waitress Olivia was fab, really made my dining experience 10 times better

Meat was amazing Would def come back

Food was full of flavour and staff was so welcoming and the offer free tea at the end and price wise it was amazing

Amazing kebab, mezze and tabuli!! This place is sweet and simple but the food is delicious! I can't wait to come again. Highly recommend the lamb! I'm going to try the chicken next time because the table behind me was loving it

Very nice shawarma and mixed grill place, so similar to what you would get in the Middle East, delicious food and very affordable place, the best and most authentic you can get in Edinburgh! I highly recommend.

The food is delicious and tasty..everything is perfect and the staff are amazing, they are very friendly. Must visit All the dishes are delicious. If you are in Edinburgh, do not miss this restaurant

The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the staff are friendly. The chicken shawarma and falafel wrap were delicious and beautifully presented. I highly recommend it.

As someone from Middle East, I can say that this was the best Shawarma we’ve had in England, the taste of the chicken , the presentation, sauces and the service were more than excellent. The staff were very friendly and we felt very welcomed. Highly recommend everyone to visit this place to get best experience in Edinburgh.

It is a traditional kebab, something different from those in Spain but it is very good

We tried the lamb shawarma with rice and chicken shawarma with Syrian chips. The lamb was delicious but the rice was way too oily for my liking. Meanwhile the chicken was dry, didn't seem fresh although the Syrian chips were an interesting flavor. I had high hopes from this place after reading the reviews, but ended up having a mixed experience.

Amazing food. Loved it. Reminded me of the food I had when i was back home in my country. I also met lovely staff who turned out to be my neighbours in my home town!! Deffo recommend!

Very good taste! Syrian food best

Best shawerma ever. GREAT PLACE!
