Sofia's Lounge in Edinburgh, City of

Cannot recommend enough. We had the family platter with halloumi fries and regular fries. The food was prepared lovingly and in good time and the portions as well as taste were very well received by our whole group.

Good food but small portions. The bread was excellent.

We had lunch here as soon as we arrived in Edinburgh, before checking into the hotel. I had already read some reviews looking for places in the area, so I was sure to go. I confirm everything: we ate very well. Actually the best food we tasted in Edinburgh! It's a very welcoming little place and the managers are very nice.

We have ordered from Sofia's a couple of times via Just Eat and we loveeeeeee it!!! It's always great quality food, great flavours and super fast delivery. I'm a veggie but my partner eats meat and there's lots of variety for both of us. The milkshakes are also 10/10. Highly recommend Sofias.

Always great food, fast and friendly delivery, fresh herbs and zesty flavours, leaves you satisfied not bloated.

2nd time we have ordered from Sofias and both times have not disappointed, we loved the food.

Got chips, volcano burger and Koko burger. Food was so fresh and hot - delivery guy must have got it to us double quick. Cooked to perfection! Will be ordering again!

Spectacular, fresh food. Warm service from the manager. Can't wait to go back with besties.

So once again the food was cold on arrival. Also, please dont deliver nachos with cheese in tin foil. The cheese sticks to the foil and I wasted loads. I think if it is cold next time we order I will reconsider ordering again.

Delivery driver was a star after the buzzer did not work. Food is absolutely fantastic!!

Like absolutely incredible! I've never had such amazing flavorful food! I'd give it 6 stars if I could. Definitely worth stopping by. Lamb Sujuk is a must try!

Very courteous and attentive staff. Nice food and pleasant atmosphere.

I am a regular and love the food, but this time the portion size was ridiculously small for the price charged. I had the 9 chicken tenders at £12.95 (which comes without any chips/sides) and they were really small, way smaller than usual. I haven't minded paying over odds for Sophia compared to other restaurants, but if they are going to cut portion sizes, it's not value for money. So disappointed 😞

Overall, really good! The food was great, the service was fat and pleasant, no complaints. Not the cheapest place though. This last thing might just be my opinion as a non-resident.

Lovely little place. Very friendly staff, lovely food.

Very delicious food. Ordered 3 times already and always satisfied with it. Next time will try something different.

Our dinner was absolutely fantastic! Will definitely order again

Great food. Six people. All loved our meal.

Lovely food, friendly service and nice Arabic music. Will definitely be back

Food was cold, chips were soggy and the juice was hot. BAD experience. My advice if you’re hungry - Avoid!!!

the food not cooked today specially the rice

Great food and service delivered on time

Amazing food and super friendly driver 😊

Fantastic food and really friendly driver!

Delivery guy was nice, burger was very good! Would definitely recommend!

Lovely little spot on the St John's Road, Corstorphine Edinburgh. Excellent food, exciting flavours. Ordered the houmous, falafel burger, saffron rice with salad. The blueberry smoothie - AMAZING! This is a lovely place. The staff here 10/10 Amir was great.

Great food. Large portions, come with an appetite.

We had dinner for four here after a long drive. Everyone’s chicken sandwiches and lamb. Entrées were amazing as well as the hummus and the moudamas appetizers. I had the lamb meatballs which came with a nice saffron rice and a delicious tomato broth and a small salad. My mom had the lamb shank which came with the same sides and both were very nice. The service was impeccable with a very attentive service staff. We also enjoyed a smoothie and a cocktail which were delicious as well. I highly recommend stopping in for a meal and checking it out for yourself.

Usually very high quality but this time was very disappointed. Hopefully just an off day. One dish had a metal staple in it, luckily spotted before eaten. Chicken much smaller than usual and sauce was watery compared to usual. Rice congealed and solid/stuck together in both saffron rice and lamb fatteh dish, basically like solid microwave bag rice if you don’t squish the bag. Our favourite takeaway usually :(

A small venue with a large menu and many drinks options including a range of cocktails and mocktails. The food was phenominal and the staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend the meze for two- we had this to start.

Quite pricey for the portion size but mezze for 2 is delicious, well seasoned and presented nicely even delivered

The staff is just AMAZING. You can really feel their hospitality. Always polite and smiling The food is astonishing. Their shared plate with chicken was the best, the freshest chicken i v had in several years. The same goes for their homemade hummus. Exceptional. It is a must - visit

Absolutely gorgeous, our first time trying this type of food and loved it our new go to once a month thanks . Fantastic food

First time getting food here! delivery driver was cheery and food was amazing!

Delicious food. Highly recommend

The takeaway food from Sofia was really good. The half-chicken with hot sauce is super tasty.

I apologise for the bad photos but I was hungry. The food was absolutely delicious, the roast chicken was so good and the hummous was excellent!

I have been to Sofia’s lounge at Corstorphine several times now and each time everything has been 10/10! The staff are really attentive and food always tastes great. I’ve tried almost everything on their menu but my favourite is the BBQ Chicken & Sujuk Kafta (Spiced chargrilled lamb on skewers) everyone I’ve bought here has also returned. Fantastic place!

really good food. tasty and fresh.

food is AWFUL - Cold soggy chips. pitiful portions for the meze. just terrible value and woeful handing that to a delivery driver with a straight face

the food was absolutely delicious, loved every bite. just a little expensive for the portion sizes - £8.95 for a tablespoon of banana ghanoush (still, best Baba ghanoush I've tasted)

One of the best meals you can get in Edinburgh, it’s a weekly order for me. Staff are delightful and the food is always top notch

Best middle eastern food in Edinburgh 👌👍

Excellent cuisine!! A great discovery that is worth the detour.

Lovely food, pleasant waiter. Good value for money

It was amazing food👍, the only thing is Fatoosh salad needs to be in a separate bag as it arrived very worm because of other food. Definitely will order again.

That. Was. AMAZING! We ordered a bit of everything to share amongst our family of four. Prices are the higher end for a takeaway but that won’t stop us from ordering again. Really really good food. 😍

Lovely very tasty food, warm friendly service.

The food was delicious. The houmus was unbelievable and the lamb was cooked perfectly.

We had a lovely lunch yesterday. Our server was very friendly and helpful food was delicious and reasonably priced.

Delicious fresh ingredients, tangy and spicy, always a great carry-out experience!

Lovely food. Authentic flavours. Great service from the delivery driver when it turned out I’d given the wrong address in error.

The food was wonderful - we will definitely go again.

If you cannot go to Lebanon let Lebanon come to you. I cannot praise their food enough and their staff. I have never been disappointed in any way whatsoever for every time I have ordered their food.

Fantastic food and service, would definitely recommend and we will be back on our next visit to the capital.

Attentive staff in my visit during lunch time. Food was amazing and on time. Great lunch time menu must say for a Lebanese restaurant. Highly recommend thier food. Great work chaps and keep it up

First time having this type of food. It was very nice. Service was very good.

Very nice selection of food. Hummus is a favourite. Rich, smooth and creamy and presented really nicely. Will certainly eat from Sofia’s again 👍

I ordered a take away for collection. The food was delicious to be fair, but I can't get my head around the fact that this amount of food cost just shy of £50! Looking at other reviews, I can't help but think we were somehow overcharged. Totally overpriced for a burger, lamb kofta, houmous and tabbouleh. If I was sitting in and had table service, it might have seemed more palatable, but I'm afraid I won't be ordering from here again.

After being very disappointed with the big hotel down the road where we were staying, we went to Sofia’s! We were delighted with the choice and exquisite tastes. Delicious food!

Great burger & chips and quick delivery

Absolutely delicious, would highly recommend😋

Never disappointed when ordering a Sofias! Food is always outstanding and delicious the whole family love it!

We sampled Lebanese food for the first time at Sofia's Lounge, a family of 2 meat eaters and 1 vegetarian. We were all delighted with our slow roasted lamb, king prawns and halumi and vegetable main dishes and the desserts- Kunafa Bel Ashta and cheesecake were excellent. The dining area lacked atmosphere but was immaculately clean. Service was first class. We will be back to try more from their menu and can recommend others to sample Lebanese food which is full of flavour.

We had a very "fussy" eater in our party. I said have a look at the menu. We decided to eat there. Success, I think we converted some of her taste buds to try some new tastes and textures. The rest of the group enjoyed the mezza dishes. We were 4 and had a selection of 8 mezza dishes. M xx

Amazing tasty food, the falafel, houmous and moutabal were fantastic! Great value for money too, would love to come back

Our address is new and very hard to find but the driver went out of his way to find us so we are very appreciative! Food was absolutely delicious.

Food arrived quickly, but we were disappointed by the quality. Sofia's isn't a cheap option so we expected better than than the crushed and cold food we got.

Food arrived fresh and hot. Fantastic meal, very tasty and good quality. Will definitely order again.

Friendly staff and varied menu. Reasonably priced lunchtime menu, complete with a glass of Prosecco. Don't know why it's not busier, it's a gem.

Best BBQ I’ve ever had in Edinburgh. Lovely and welcoming staff. Would highly recommend.

Average food and a little expensive for the quality or ambience the restaurant provides. I'd recommend the veg meze for 2 if you're going at all. . The mains are not so great.

Always great service and delicious food

Tonight I was at Sofia the food was lovely, staff nice . But not happy the heating wasn’t working there was a family who were in before us who were sitting with their jackets on. I really wish that I hadn’t sat down in my seat. As soon as walked through the door I was met by a chill in the room and was really cold they offered to move us seat which we did but it didn’t really make a difference.I really wish that they had told us when we’d booked as it really did ruin the experience and been here many of times and really enjoyed it but I shouldn’t have to sit there in my jacket while I eat my dinner and end up with cold hands and feet which meant i couldn’t enjoy my food due to being so cold at the table I had my son saying that his bottled drink was also flat and didn’t want to make a scene I feel sorry for the staff as it was really cold and nobody should have to work in a environment that’s so cold that your unable to move it’s a shame as I really enjoy the food but after my experience tonight I will not be returning which is a real shame

The food was absolutely delicious! Everything was cooked to perfection, and it was fresh. The waiter was kind enough to explain the menu and point us in the right direction of what to get. The restaurant decor could use an update, but overall the experience was really great. The restaurant was clean, and the bathroom was really clean as well (depending if that is important to you or not).

Spent £71 and the amount of food there, was not worth that amount at all!!! I can go to a restaurant that has the same prices but you get what you pay for and a large selection of food. Very very disappointed especially because we were still hungry after that meal. Also took a long time to arrive so had to reheat the food as it was cold

Highly reccomend the mixed platter. Amazing quality, great flavours. Thank you!

Best takeout in the area. Always on time. Always delicious. Highly recommended.

Food was first class will be back and recommended 👌

Not been for a while and had really excellent collection. Mezze for 2 with a couple of additional meals. All really delicious. Pop into #littlerascal while you wait for a perfect evening!

Food was amazing. Will definitely order again. 😊

Food was just right. The staff and service was good. The place looked a bit dull, could do with some TLC in creating a good ambience.

The food from Sofia’s is always excellent: really tasty and freshly prepared. Alana is a great host, really friendly and attentive to the diners.

The food was SO good, some of the best middle eastern food I've had from a restaurant, it feels homemade. Highly recommend

Absolutely loved this place. Everything tasted divine and unlike anything else I have tried. You must give it a go. Ask the staff to guide you!

Delicious food, generous portion sizes and great music playing... what more could I ask for? We will be eating here again.

Delicious meals the salsa was lovely, the nachos particularly delicious

Food was really tasty. Tasted fresh. Was a bit early (15 mins) but delivery driver pleasant. Decent value would order again.

Food was reasonable service could have been better company was great!

Very tasty food. Would order again.

Great food, service and ambiance. Fantastic place!!

The food was absolutely delicious. Our server Reem was extremely pleasant. Definitely would recommend.

One star for it being edible. One star for it being delivered on time. Food was cold on arrival and tasted abysmal. Dishes all tasted the same, incredibly bitter and dry. I would avoid at all costs.

Foods are amazing, never try Lebanese food before, it surprise me a lot!

Tasty food but cold and dry, in part probably because it was late.

Delicious food will order again

Delivery is always on time or even early. Food is delicious. Highly recommended.

Not as warm as it could have been, but always quality food.

Absolutely perfect! Hit the spot, food was delivered early and hot. I will definitely be ordering from here again 😇

Visited for the second time yesterday with my partner, we both loved the food and the friendly staff, can't wait to visit again! If you haven't been I highly recommend you try!
