Verdo in Edinburgh, City of

First time here and definitely won’t be the last. I had Lamb Adana and my wife had Lamb Shish. They’re both £20-odd which is excellent value - with all these amazing sundries coming with them is a very fair price. Very tasty, succulent, spiced perfectly. Lovely textured bread (not pictured sorry) and softly cooked rice. The onion and mushroom dish which I think was in a stock sauce was also out of this world. For drinkers, the wine is very good and very reasonably priced too. We had a fantastic bottle of pinot noir for under £23. Didn’t get a pic of the mixed cold mezze starter but again top notch.

Great food and service , very generous portions as well. Really enjoyed Verdo Special which got combination of all meat, salad and rice

エディンバラ在住でここ10年くらい通っている中東料理（正確にはトルコ料理）を出すレストランで、本格的に炭火でラムや鶏のケバブを出してくれます。一品メインを頼んだら無料のサイドディッシュとしてサラダ・マッシュルームと玉ねぎを炭火焼したもの・玉ねぎのサラダ等が出てきて一人、二人で行ってそれぞれメイン一品だけ頼んでも十分です。メインには米とパンも付いてきます。パンは肉の上で炙ってるので肉汁＋炭火の味が染み込んですごく美味しいです。ラムのケバブの単品とかラムチョップもいいのですが、もし色々と楽しみたいのであればmixed kebabがお勧めです。ラムのケバブ、鶏のケバブ、ラムチョップ、adana（ラムと香辛料で作ったハンバーグみたいなものですごく美味しい）が付いてきます。あと、ワインも安く提供してくれます。エディンバラに来たら一度はお試しあれ。 追記：小さい子供二人を連れてよく行き、子供2人でメイン一品しか頼んでいなくても全然嫌な顔ひとつせずいつも優しく対応していただいてます。また子供に特別にお菓子くれたりとかもよくして頂きます。 息子が小麦アレルギー（グルテンアレルギー）なのですが、お肉、米をいつも喜んで美味しく食べています。流石にパンは食べれませんが、他の料理のボリュームも多く特に問題に感じた事はないです。

We had dinner at Verdo tonight. It is the best food I had so far during my trip to UK. The food is so delicious. I especially love their bread and Lamb chops. I ordered a plate of mixed Kabab, including a variety of meat. They all tasted good, especially the charcoal grilled lamb chop. Crispy outside and tender inside. Very very good. I strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone in search of good food in Edinburgh.

Visiting family from Canada who live nearby. We were warmly welcomed and served very quickly. All of the staff were friendly and knowledgeable and helpful and most of all, KIND. We had a wonderful dinner and overall phenomenal experience. It was a belated birthday dinner for my brother in law and couldn’t have been better. Thank you all so much!

It was a very nice restaurant. We especially liked the appetizers and drinks. Their grills were already amazing. Great place.

It is really a very nice and high quality restaurant. I recommend you try chicken wings this way. You must try their great food.

Our children loved this place the most. It is best to eat grilled chicken rather than eating chickens with unknown origins. They were very beautiful.

Verdo is a very special place for us. It is a place where, as a Turk, I do not feel like a stranger and where I eat very good food.

It's really one of the places you should try. We stop by here every weekend as a family. We eat it with great pleasure. Great!

Turkish food and desserts are world famous. This place is also a well-known place around Edinburgh. We visit often. I can say that there has not been a single day that we have not been satisfied so far.

Turkish food and Greek Greek food have a different place for me. But even though I like the Greeks more when it comes to appetizers, the Turks are very good at desserts.

I think this is a very special place. Especially the meat used in the Turkish kebabs has a completely different flavor. The quality of their meat is nice. I prefer it to neighborhood restaurants.

I never knew that even meatballs could be so good. Turkish food is a different world. There are flavors that every European should try.

One of the best Turkish restaurants in the city. A bit pricey but very good amount of food in return. They give salad and some mezes for free

We found this place on the Internet. I looked around to see what was around. We came here for a change. I can say the food is close to perfect. The meat tasted very good. It's a taste that suits our mouths and palates.

I'm glad we listened to my mom and came here. My mom and I wanted to go to a Turkish restaurant and she told me to go here. I had my first sish kebab and I loved it. The prices are not expensive at all. There is everything on the menu.

What a good kebab. I've been thinking about this kebab for three days, guys. I can't get enough of it. I will come again as soon as I can, if only I can find a chance. The owner of the business was also a very kind person, very warm-blooded.

A restaurant that makes you glad you came and never makes you regret spending money. I wanted to eat everything on the menu, even the names and ingredients looked so delicious.

I don't know that I have ever eaten such a kebab. I have been to the Middle East many times, but it was very nice to find one of the best kebabs in Turkey here. Now it has become a place where my family and I can go at least one night a week.

Went here for my birthday on Saturday night. It is the month of Ramadan and we had pre ordered for the food to be ready for breaking our fast, did not disappoint, even gave us some dates to break our fast which is traditional and most appreciated.. Restaurant was full, great atmosphere, food, as always cooker to perfection. The sharing platter is always our fave and HUGE portion! Staff friendly, our waiter and waitress were super kind and thoughtful when bringing out my cake. Highly recommend and our fave family spot.

Had an amazing experience as always here. Start to finish wad exceptional service. We always order Verdo special and the portion and quality of food is 10/10. The two main front of house gentleman ALWAYS give exceptional customer service and ready at hand for any help you might need. Thank you for making my sisters birthday so great this evening Tolga! See you guys soon 🙏🏽

So it's one of the best restaurants in the UK that you should definitely add to your bucket list. Turkish food has never sounded so good to me. Their meats are the meats we know but they were extremely good because of their cooking techniques.

These Middle Eastern dishes have their own distinct flavor. They can somehow make you eat them. The spices were just right. I think Turkish kebab tastes better than Arab kebabs.

Middle Eastern cuisine may seem a bit heavy from a distance, but it is definitely one of the best cuisines in the world. The most important one is of course Turkish cuisine. It had such a rich menu that I loved it.

I never thought that Turkish food could be so good. Maybe the master here cooks very well. We went once and became regular customers, thank you.

I love Middle Eastern food and we haven't had a good Turkish meal in a long time. We were very happy to find the kebab here, which we admired when we visited Turkey.

In my opinion, Verdo can compete with Nusret in terms of Turkish food. I loved their barbecue, Turkish hamburger and kebabs were already legendary. We paid a very small amount of money.

Verdo always impresses me with it's amazing flavors and warm hospitality. The taste of the food is truly exceptional and I leave satisfied every time.

I think I found a lot of things I was looking for here. It could be better, of course, but it's not bad. I think it is one of the best in the region terms of Turkish food. I would even say the best.😍

Verso is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in the neighborhood. As someone who visited Turkey just for the Turkish cuisine, I can say that I have definitely become a regular here.

We went with friends after work. There were 6 of us and it was possible to find a table where they could accommodate us very comfortably. The menu had middling prices. Although there are not many such restaurants in England, it is normal for the...

This is what a barbecue looks like. They don't make much barbecue where we live, so we have always wondered about Turkish barbecue. It was very close to our city. It is also a good location. The prices are also great. The meat was very...

Great busy small, but loads of atmosphere. Good quality and large portions especially the Verdi Special for two. The only thing that spoils it slightly is customers leaving the door open, not the restaurants fault.

What a great place to eat. As someone who loves Turkish food, I can say that it was the best Turkish restaurant I have ever been to. The menu was very rich. The meat was juicy. They cooked it exactly as I wanted.

It's a family restaurant, mates. If you want to go with your spouse, if you want to go with your children. I liked their treats the most, I must say I loved the Turkish mezes. The flavour is number 10, but the prices could be...

Everything went very well for me. I proposed to my beloved wife for the first time here. The staff is very friendly and the menus are of high quality. They do not compromise on their old flavours. I hope we will celebrate every anniversary here....

You won't find a better Turkish cuisine restaurant in Ireland. The meat here was of better quality than our local meat. I am not sure if the meat comes from Turkey. But Turkish cuisine is definitely a flavour to try.

It was a restaurant that deserved its money to the fullest. I never thought that Turkish food could be so good. I'm glad I had it. Besides, I love Turkish hospitality. You can't find it in English restaurants.

Even in Turkey you can hardly eat this kind of food. We liked it very much and we were satisfied. I love the Turkish barbecue culture anyway. The portions were satisfying. Moreover, there were many treats and appetisers.

I can say it's a family restaurant. We love Turkish cuisine. I can say that we love kebab and doner. I think everyone should discover this place and it is very pleasing to eat this quality meat at a much more affordable price than the...

I love Turkish food, especially the grills. I have never eaten in Turkey, but this place brings Turkish cuisine to my doorstep. Great!

Went for dinner without a reservation. The staff were very helpful to accommodate us and moved us to a different table after we had ordered to ensure we had enough room. We had a sharing platter which was excellent value at £26 per person. Make...

They used to open at lunch time for a setup menu from 12am to 2pm, value of food then was £14..super good price for starter, main and a drink.. Obviously the pandemic changed everything. Now the restaurant is open after 4.30pm.., the menu still desame...

Best Kebab Restaurant. We recommend. .. Good food, very attentive and friendly service and also very good food.

I went for dinner and I was satisfied. It is a nice place to go with the family. Kebabs super recommend.

Fabulous meal last night with 2 friends. Very good service and delicious food. Highly recommended and not expensive given the size of the dishes with side accompaniments.

It was the most delicious and delightful dinner we have yet had with my friend in Edinburgh. The meat was extremely fresh and juicy, and all types of “meze” were unique and just perfect, can’t forget the salad on the side and sauces for the...

Delicious, nicely cooked food, kind and attentive personnel, the place where one can feel the taste of homemade food. Definitely worth to try

I have been to Turkey lots of times. Live the food. Would even say this is better than food I have had accross there. Devine. Some reviews on here have said its expensive are they joking or what. Two starters and a main of chicken...

We could call ourselves food snobs because we are well traveled all around the world and have to admit that this restaurant offers absolutely THE BEST open fire BBQ style meats anywhere in the world! Perfectly charred and seasoned with that desired to die for...

Everything was delicious. Really well served and with a perfect warm pita bread. Try not to eat a lot… waiting for a next time.

Yurd dishinda yiye bileceyiniz en guzel kababci diye biliriz. Onceden rezervasyon yapmaniz gerekir. Tum masalar rezerv olmasina ragmen bizi geri...

My wife and I came here to Edinburgh to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We just rolled into town and decided to try Verdo and it was seriously one of the best meals of our lives. We ordered a glass of wine, a starter, and...

Very bad customer service!!Saw a rat In the restaurant..putting a hand in nose and servicing us ..servers didn’t wanted to take the order and brought us food after 30 minutes-half cooked and meat was smelling and rotten..

I have been a fan of Verdo since it was stabilised because the food is amazing and so fresh. Also, I don't think there is another Turkish restaurant in town like them. The issue here now is that the place is now open from 4...

Lovely food. Succulent meat. Lovely bread and rice. Really enjoyed our meals and friendly service. We had chicken shish and loved it. Very big portions so took some home with us.

Starters were a little disappointing but the mains (lamb chops and chicken skewer) were wonderful. Massive portions and super tasty. Service was first class too. Definitely recommend.

Really good food. I was a bit adamant after reading a few comments about the customer service, but the restaurant is busy and they are working hard.

This is my second review for Verdo, and I'll say again, the FOOD is absolutely DELICIOUS!! Done well every time! However, I'll also say again, that the service leaves something to be desired. Yesterday we ordered take away and they forgot to include rice. Granted,...

I cycle past this place every day and have always meant to try it. Finally did today and it did not disappoint! Just ordered a couple of starters and my word, they were fantastic! I will be coming back with my whole family, probably for...

Been here twice, always kind service and very nice food. Usually have a free table, and a little out of the city. Feels less touristy and very homey. Lamb, Adana, Cecik and bread were amazing.

First time eating in the restaurant, my brother and his family eat there all the time and rated it. Verdo has a lovely atmosphere and the staff are lovely. Food was also delicious and would recommend eating there. The only thing was when I was...

We asked the waitress if we can sit away from the door due to gusty winds. Half empty restaurant still she refused to give us a different table because they do not have any other table for 2. She said again - we can not...

Had the feast for 2 - lovely meat, beautiful charcoal flavour throughout all the meats - lamb rib, lamb, chiecken wings and meat etc. Far too much for 2 to eat but very nice...doggy bag essential :-)

Popped into Verdo with my parents and partner on recommendation by a friend. Staff were attentive, portion sizes were generous and the cuisine was authentic Turkish ocakbasi. The smell of the BBQ permeated the restaurant, very good.

Lov Lovely food & friendly staff. Really nice atmosphere and surroundings and the meal was beautiful.

Mixed kebab.....i teeny lamb chop....2 thumb sizes of chicken and lamb kebab....and a kofta for £20.00....give me a break.. I could have gotten a mixed grill kebab from my local kebab house with more than what i got.....at half the price.....and tastier to boot. #Joke....oh...

Had a fabulous 2 course lunch including juice with friends. The mezze were superb along with lovely pitta bread, feta salad, falafel, grilled lamb and chicken and meatballs. What a feast for a great price with nice service. Thank you!!!

Girlfriend and I went here for the lunch menu. £14.95 each and we'll worth the money. I got the wings to start and they were delicious. We decided to share the mixed grill for the main, you could see the chef Cook it and the...

Went to Verdo for an early dinner pre Tattoo, as it was near to our hotel. A great menu, all freshly cooked , generous portions, and very tasty. Friendly efficient staff. I would definitely go again.

Family get together ,nice meal ,well cooked and plenty of it. Although only half full as we were leaving the noise level was nigh The waitresses was just a bit quick with our main,table was full with starters this ment alot of juggling with plates...

Had a lovely meal here tonight. Massive portions.really good food. Service was a bit slow and waitresses didn't really understand what we were saying. Slightly disappointed no clean cutlery between courses. Felt rushed food was coming out before the previous course was finished.

Tonight my wife and I were treated to a feast by the Chef. Everything was fanatically fresh! Verdo’s give you salads and other dishes on top which is great to give you a feast for a king. Thank you so much, wonderful night.

Went quite early in the evening and shared two starters which were lovely and each had a main course. Have been here before, so I knew that the portions were on the large side, but I was very hungry. The food is really good and...

Absolutely amazing meal, as always at Verdo. Thank you again! Incredible service, lovely staff and the food is just to die for. Beautifully cooked meat and delicious accompanied with salad, vegetables and bread. Highly recommend the lamb Shish, but everything on their menu will be...

Still the best bbq restaurant . Had to laugh at another comment that inside smells smokey, it's a bbq and that's what I love about going. Food excellent, yes prices have increased but so has food in general so the restaurant can still turn a...

We were in town and hungry and hadn’t made a dinner reservation so thought we would try Verdo, it may not seem much on the outside but wow this place was unreal! One of the best dinners me and my partner have had in a...

Food was quite good but spoilt by the overwhelming smoke. I entered smelling fresh & perfumed and left like I’d been sitting downwind at a BBQ. I’d say ventilation needs improving. I went early as I was going to a show after, so this might...

We had originally book Southpour but left in desperation and literally stumbled across Verdo. We were lucky to get a seat on a Saturday night as the restaurant was busy. Ordered a chicken kebab and lamb kebab. Starters were hummus plus chicken wings. The food...

Have been on several occasions, The food is outstanding so fresh and tasty, The staff are very friendly and kind treat you like friends, the sharing platter is stunning was enough to feed 4.. all the meat tastes so fresh and the Turkish bread is...

Visited today for lunch. Great choice on the lunch menu and good value . Got complimentary tea or coffee and Turkish delight and a wee lucky Turkish eye on leaving. Friendly staff. Definitely need to revisit this restaurant.

Great starter platter. Lovely hummus and dips. Kebabs were great. RICE WAS INCREDIBLE. complimentary tea and coffee too. Highly recommend.

Fantastic authentic Turkish food. The food was fantastic. Nice friendly atmosphere. Good friendly service. Highly recommended.

Had a wonderful dinner at this fab restaurant. The food was delicious and plentiful, is cooked in front of you and the service was excellent. They were very attentive even although the restaurant was busy. They were thoughtful and generous, especially with the kids. Would...

Absolutely gorgeous food but very very overpriced. I ordered Chicken Shish kebabs with salad and cuscus but it shouldn’t be for £18. It’s not like the amount was generous, the food was lovely and made to perfection but I felt it was very overpriced. The...

Love this restaurant, food is delicious and staff are very polite, the owner seems to be very humble and so grateful for the custom. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely amazed with how tasty the food was here. Would recommend to anyone. Best food in Edinburgh I have ever had 5* all the way

They closed for two weeks and our whole family was gutted. Turns out they were on holiday - phew! They are back open and phone is working again. These guys are so lovely and the food is awesome. Amazing kaburga - lamb rib. And can’t...

Have been to Verdo few times now and never disappointed, portions are big, Kebabs are to die for, service is great, I can never eat the rice and salad that comes with the kebabs, as the portions are huge, lovely lovely food..

Disclaimer: I haven't actually eaten here. I tried to book through their website. Their booking form is broken - it just gave me a load of PHP errors. Next I tried phoning - got an automated reply saying call couldn't be answered and no option...

Absolutely amazing food, staff were friendly and helpful Amazing value for money Freshly cooked foods, devine salads and beautiful starters Will definitely go back when back in Edinburgh, an absolutely hidden gem but well worth a visit . Family friendly too Loves it ❤️

Have missed Verdo due to covid, so delighted to be back for my birthday meal. Food delicious. Service very good 👍 Support this independent restaurant.

We used to love this place! Kebabs are/were delicious. But lately the service has just been poor and the food quality is deteriorating. The portion sizes are growing smaller as well and it's a relatively expensive place. I really would like them to service this...

Visiting Edinburgh and love Turkish food so had to try this one. I had my usual mixed grill with salad. Meat was grilled to perfection, medium so was cooked properly and tender not chewy or dry. The shish kebab was well flavoured and not too...

Not anything special from the outside step through the door .... a warm welcome awaits the food was superb an authentic Turkish experience well cooked and served perfectly would definitely go again when in Edinburgh

My partner and I came here for my birthday celebration. There was so much food! Everything was delicious. I had the lamb chops which were cooked to perfection! The salads were so full of flavour! I will definitely come here again!

Brilliant food, friendly service, well spaced out tables and a delightful return to eating out. Came back here after a great meal earlier in the year and was just as good as I remembered.

Literally just out the restaurant. Best meal in a while ... fresh salads, meat, rice and bread. Price is reasonable too, doing an offer of 30% just now so I would go ASAP lol

As above plus argumentative with customers and a bit arrogant. I used to visit this restaurant very often as I loved it so much, but my God if everything has changed, they are not caring any more about good costumer service.. sadly enough the whole...
