Numi Food in Edinburgh, City of

Ordered through Uber Eats at 17.17 and am appalled by the service. Estimate delivery time was 18.20 to 18.40. Had to call 5 times to get updates with many false promises. Food eventually arrived at 21.01 cold

On holiday and ordered a takeway through deliveroo to be delivered to apartment. Ordered at 19:41 and finally received a lukewarm meal and not what we expected 2 hours later at 21:50. We had hungry children who needed feeding and ended up getting ready meals from nearby shop. It took the bar an hour to get back to us with details that one of the dishes had nuts in as we had someone with a nut allergy and we received texts at 21:39 saying that the meal would be with us at 2055. I have had better value meals from in London's chinatown & our local takeaway and was a complete waste of money especially as we Asian so know what to expect.

Food was truly amazing! Staff was very kind and the place was super clean. Food was delivered very quickly too! Absolute 5 stars!

Cogimos una comida para llevar para cenar. Los calamares a la sal y pimienta que teníamos como entrante se sentían como plástico duro, absolutamente incomible. El resto de la comida era de baja calidad, definitivamente por debajo de la media. No recomendado, una pérdida de dinero.

Pedí comida anoche. La entrega fue muy rápida y la comida muy buena. Altamente recomendado. ¡Gracias!

Came here for a later lunch mid-week and found it to be quite quiet. There are only a few tables with normal seating with the rest being taller stools. You order and pay at the counter. Their card machine doesn’t have the best signal so I had to wait for my transaction to go through for a couple of minutes. Not the most comfortable place to sit and eat as their main door lets in a lot of cold air. Felt more like a fast food establishment than a restaurant. The menu is quite large with a range of soups, starters, rice dishes, noodle dishes and separate meat/vegetable dishes. I had been excited to try their clay pot rice as I believe they are one of the only places in Edinburgh to do it. I chose the chicken and poku mushroom (shiitake) rice and was told it would take 50 minutes. I double checked with the lady that she said ‘five zero’ and she said yes. I was a bit disappointed with the wait time but went back to my seat to wait. After about 20 minutes my food came out - she must have meant 15 minutes but I was glad I didn’t have to wait for 50! My rice was slightly undercooked (possibly because they were rushing to cook it in 15 minutes) and was quite stuck to the bottom of the clay pot. The chicken was pale and in large chunks which meant it didn’t look the most appetising. There were three shiitake mushrooms in total and a few stems of gai lan placed on top. Would have appreciated more mushrooms as the chicken was quite flavourless. Missing the authentic clay pot rice taste! When the waiter brought the dish over he told me to put soy sauce on it - something which shouldn’t need doing if the chicken and mushrooms had been marinated together in the first place. Didn’t taste bad but did need the soy sauce for flavour. I ordered a mango pomelo sago which tasted more like mango juice with sago in it. Only a tiny bit of pomelo and was missing the real mango taste. Disappointed that my drink didn’t live up to my expectations. All in all I would recommend if you are craving a more ‘fast food’ version of Chinese food. Prices do seem to reflect the quality. However if you are looking for authenticity I would give Numi a miss. Numi does well on Southbridge due to the amount of tourist foot traffic but maybe not so much for locals or those who know their Chinese food.

Theres been an explosion of Asian cuisine on this street to cater for the students. Popped into this one for a bite. I got the char sui rice. For any asians that know exactly what char sui tastes like it was dry and lacking in flavour. It was average at best. There are definitely betters restaurants out there

We stopped here for a pit stop during a weekend in Edinburgh. We shared a seafood soup which was fab and had octopus balls which were fluffy and nice. Lovely sauces condiments etc incl chili oil. Service was excellent too. We loved it!

Lugar agradável e atendentes muito atenciosos. Pratos também satisfatórios. Voltaria com. Certeza a esse espaço.

We visited Numi one Satmurday evening and were glad we did. The service was both friendly, quick a the restaurant was spotless. My wife and I thought the food was excellent and the ingredients very fresh. We will definitely be eating at Numi again.

Ordered chicken chow main through deliveroo - it was beyond average! Most definitely wouldn’t ordered from here again unfortunately.

Great food and great portion size. They provided sauce which I often find is missing from other similar places Service and staff very friendly and helpful!

An inexpensive lunch place; good for families. Everything we tried was decent; all the small dishes around £4 and for that price they were a decent size and quality. Gyozas and squid really good

Went here by chance and I was very impressed by the cleanliness and the friendly staff. The menu choice is fairly good and I opted for a take a way chow min dish. The chicken was fresh and tasted lovely. What I liked most was the fresh vegetables that came with this dish. I did not find it pricey for Edinburgh eateries.

We were here for dinner because it was close to our hotel, the portions are generous and the service was ok, not my favorite but is a safe and clean place to eat.
