Best curry I've ever eaten, again. This is the one behind the Mosque, not the one on the road that says it's the original. Proper food, lovely welcome and service. Great coffee too.

Si alguna vez en el área de Edimburgo recomiendo encarecidamente venir aquí. A mi tío que ha estado muchas veces siempre le encanta comer aquí y me llevó, no me decepcionó. La comida era sabrosa, deliciosa y muy bien de precio y mucho de ella. El dinero gastado se destina a la mezquita, que es un edificio tan hermoso en sí mismo. Una vez más recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar y probar algo de comida increíble.

A very cheap place to eat a lot and very well. The food was very good and they serve it to you right away. The tables are protected in case of rain. It is a good option to eat in a group because it is fast and a lot of quantity. Highly recommended to eat something when you are in the center.

I just had a delightful meal at this Indian restaurant near my school, and I must say, it was exceptionally good. Priced at only £7.5 per portion, it’s quite affordable. This dish was generous with meat and the rice was very aromatic and flavorful. Additionally, the owner was very friendly and the hygiene standards were impressively maintained. Having tried Indian cuisine at two other restaurants in China, which were quite disappointing, this restaurant has completely elevated my impression of Indian food. It’s absolutely worth a visit.

Food is both bland and too hot. There is not that wonderful blend of spices that good south Asian food has. Portions are large, an ingredients are fine, but recipes need to be completely reworked. None was doughy and tasteless. Very disappointing given the wonderful reviews this place has received. Atmosphere is a cafeteria and restroom was not well maintained. Most disappointing meal I had in Edinburgh.

Another hidden gem for lunch in Edinburgh. It’s not super cheap for lunch £6ish but it’s a big plate of curry and you are getting soooo much food and it’s great quality with lots of veggies rather than just sauce. Staff are friendly, service is quick and there’s lots of options. Up there in my top places to eat in Edinburgh

The folks here made a mixture of curries for a party at my house - six different curries, five orders of each. I ordered them a couple of weeks before and picked them up in the afternoon just before the party. The food was delicious, the price was good, and the guys were very friendly and helpful - a lovely experience overall. In the end we had about 26 people, so we had a nice left-overs dinner the next night too!

An affordable establishment selling good south asian food. They have limited options, and they may not be as tasty as some other restaurants. However, it is still quality, they rotate often, and they're there to serve the local community with excellence. They're friendly to anyone who walks through their doors, and give generous portions. I recommend everyone in the area come here at least once and support this local business. I recommend takeaway or seats outside.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Original Mosque Kitchen , and let me tell you, it was an experience worth raving about! As a lover of biryani and chickpea dishes, this restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way imaginable. However, what truly sets this establishment apart is its commitment to a good cause, as all the profits are dedicated to supporting the local mosque. From the moment I stepped into the cafe, I was greeted with warmth and attentive service. The staff, always sporting genuine smiles, went out of their way to ensure that every guest felt welcome and comfortable. They were knowledgeable about the menu and readily offered recommendations based on personal preferences, making the dining experience all the more personalized. Now, let's talk about the food! The biryani is simply outstanding. Each grain of rice is perfectly cooked and fragrant, layered with tender pieces of meat, and infused with a harmonious blend of spices that excite the taste buds. The flavors were well-balanced, and the use of fresh ingredients was evident in every bite. It was clear that they took great pride in their culinary creations. Equally impressive was the chickpea dish with naan bread- a harmonious blend of mouthwatering flavors and textures. The chickpeas were cooked to perfection, creating a comforting and hearty dish that left me craving for more. It was a true reflection of the skill and passion that the chefs put into their cooking. What makes this dining experience even more gratifying is knowing that every pound spent at goes towards supporting the local mosque. This heartfelt commitment to giving back to the community makes the delicious food taste even better. It's heartwarming to know that your culinary adventure is contributing to a worthy cause. In summary, The mosque kitchen is a hidden gem that combines exquisite flavors, exemplary customer service, and a sense of purpose. Whether you're a fan of biryani, chickpeas, or simply appreciate good food with a good cause, this restaurant won't disappoint. Treat yourself to a flavorful journey while contributing to the betterment of the community; it's an experience that leaves both your taste buds and your heart satisfied.

Great atmosphere and quick service, however, the food was very bland and lacking flavour.

It was my first time in this one, I always assumed it was linked to the one around the corner on the street, not the case it seems. The people in here are much more friendly than the shop, the folks who work in the MK shop are dour beyond belief. I have the lamb Bhuna, I was happy with mine, good amount of meat and sauce. My Fiancé had the chicken Tikka Masala, I didn't like that at all. It was bland. There are plenty of options, including a number of daily specials. The Value for money is still excellent here. In the MK shop, prices have gone up a good bit, you kinda wonder whether that place is worth it anymore. It would seem the Original Mosque Kitchen is the winner now for tastiest, wallet friendly food.

The Original Mosque Kitchen is a pretty good place for some lunch in Edinburgh! #Halal The portions here are great and the prices are less than 10 GBP, making it an affordable option for a satisfying meal. We tried the rice with chicken korma, which was pretty good, and the Monday special of rice with chicken dopiaza, which was also quite enjoyable. Another dish we tried was the rice with lamb bhuna, which was decent. My favorite thing that we had was the naan with chicken shish kabob. While the naan itself wasn't great and tasted like dough, the kabob was absolutely fantastic and stood out as the best item we tried. Overall, The Original Mosque Kitchen is a great spot for affordable, delicious Indian kinda style cuisine. Please note that there are two "Mosque Kitchens", so it can be confusing to find the right one. And I'm not sure how the other one tastes like.

Piping hot and cheap plates of curry in classic fast food curry style e.g. bhuna and tikka masala. Don’t think some reviewers know what home style curries actually are, but hey, that’s probably why this place is so popular. They do the British style of curry well, they have variety, and you can’t argue with the price. But naan wasn’t that good, it’s much better in the proper restaurant.

We've been past this restaurant literally 100's of times, always meaning to have a meal there, but never found the time. Well last week we decided to give it a try. Phoned on the Friday evening to see if we could book a table at short notice and were delighted we were able to. We were greeted at the door and shown to our table by a very pleasant, helpful guy. We ordered a starter and main meal each plus some Cobra beer. The staff were absolutely excellent and served us promptly. Now the important bit ..... the food was awesome, I mean absolutely awesome! The starters are big, you could easily share 1 between 2. The main meals were brilliant and again plentiful. It's a shame we wasted so many years walking past this restaurant. We can't praise them enough, absolutely loved it.

It was a fantastic experience that started as soon as we arrived, a pleasant greeting and then shown our way upstairs to the restaurant again met with a warm welcome. We were shown to our table (with a view of the square). Our waitress presented us with our menus and made us very welcome. Our meals were outstanding and very well presented. The tea top ups were plentiful and regular checks from the fantastic staff ensured our visit was enjoyable. 5 star service, 5 star food and not too expensive a bill. We will be back!
