Voujon in Edinburgh, City of

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.

The interior really put us off, it feels far too bright and white. However, the food is really nice. The starters however are all very bland. We ordered veg samosa, chicken pakora and mixed dip/pickle tray. Nothing had much flavour, even the sauces tasted of very little. The mains were all 10/10. I had a fenugreek lamb curry which was one of the nicest curries I've had in my life. My family ordered Korma, south Indian garlic chicken and a curry with mixed fruit. They all commented that they were all lovely and full of flavour! The service was fine, a bit quiet and not very outgoing but efficient. I would come back but only for mains.

An excellent Indian restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff couldn’t have been more attentive and helpful!!!

Food was superb, I had the mushroom starte it was delicious, every dish tasted fabulous and presented so well

Really excellent Bangladesh and Indian food. very tasty, incredible blend of spices. Highly recommend.

This place had a great range for people who don't like spicy foods and those who love it. Would definitely go again. We were a group of six and shared curries, rice, nann bread and wine! Loved the flavours.

Lovely atmosphere, extensive menu, superb service. Try this place!!

Excellent resturant,meal was lovely,service excellent,not too over 5he top,nan bread lovely,wine well priced,would recommend and be back,also noticed had place at back for large parties,ladies toilets spotless and partner said male toilets fine as well

This is one of the best Indian meals weve had it is super clean friendly staff the poppadom light & crisp the little dips to go with the poppadom s were excellent the main meal I had Kashmiri Chicken superb asked for a well fired nan with coriander I would definitely recommend this lovely place hope to visit soon thanks guys .

An excellent meal, probably the best pilau rice I’ve had for years. We could actually taste the saffron. So often turmeric is used to colour. Restaurant was pristine, white tablecloths and napkins. Staff were so friendly and helpful The price of the meal and drinks was great value for money. I have paid a lot more for much poorer quality food and service. If I lived in Edinburgh I would be dining here often. The choice of food is phenomenal and everything we ordered was delicious. I highly recommend .

we just had the most amazing meal here. the flavors melding perfectly, it was heartbreaking in its beauty. run, don’t walk, to this restaurant. we were so grateful for this meal, i won’t forget it anytime soon.

Yet another fantastic night at the Voujon, very friendly staff and incredible food. What more could you ask for?

Being relatively new to Indian cuisine, we didn’t quite know what to expect, but we were eager to try something different. Voujon offers an option where the chef curates a selection of dishes based on your taste preferences, which was perfect for us. Our waiter took genuine pride in crafting our meal, and it was clear he wanted to ensure we had a great experience. The variety of dishes he brought out introduced us to a whole new world of flavors—some of which were completely foreign to us but all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. For those who might be hesitant about trying something new, I highly recommend Voujon for a welcoming and delicious introduction to Indian cuisine.

Always a good curry here. Nice staff.

En av de bästa indiska restauranger vi ätit på. Allt var vällagat och personalen trevlig och uppmärksam. Rekommenderas varmt!

Lovely clean attractive restaurant, friendly and smartly dressed team, excellent food and great value for money. The ambience was nice.

Beautifully clean and well-presented restaurant with professional staff and attentive management. Unfortunately, the quality of the food does not live up to the decor, being bland, unremarkable and distinctly un-Indian. If you're just after a casserole in nice surroundings, you'll probably find it just fine.

Heerlijk gegeten voor een schappelijke prijs. Het restaurant is schoon en netjes met mooi tafellinnen en servetten. Veel keuze op de menukaart en zeer vriendelijke bediening!

A truly beautiful meal. Had an assorted starter which was really good, and a bit different. Followed by mains that were among the best Indian meals we have had. Very helpful staff, and very polite. Would certainly go back. Not overly expensive for a major city.

Delicious food, great meat, fish and vegetarian dishes! Large menu for every need. Value for £. Friendly, engaging, professional staff. Clean, tidy restaurant. A quieter evening with a pleasant atmosphere. Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit (friends have been before- great recommendation!) …will return. A must try ⭐️

We had a very nice visit. The service was very attentive and friendly, the food was very good and the portions large enough. Prices were also okay. A recommendation!

Fabulous food with really helpful and friendly staff which made a lovely meal and outing for my wife and myself. Great decor and a lovely atmosphere - we will be back again soon even though we live on the other side of Edinburgh

Brilliant quality food and excellent service from friendly and helpful staff. Everything was so good and the atmosphere is lovely. Prompt but unhurried service and dishes were excellent to our taste. My wife is a wheelchair user and we were seated as we needed for me to assist her. Discovered this restaurant a couple of years ago but we will be revisiting regularly- highly recommended

Delicious food, would have liked to have more choice of wine per glass.

Excellent service with attentive staff who take care of details. The food is simply delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant to all Indian food lovers!

Chic Indian restaurant in its welcome, white tablecloths and waiters in three-piece suits... very good Indian cuisine (we only tasted non-spicy dishes), tasty rice and local beers as well... no dessert... competitive prices...I recommend

This place was recommended and it was an absolute joy. The most beautiful white table linen. A lot of time and money spent keeping this restaurant looking pristine. Staff were all gentle and smiley. Lots of staff. The Peshwari naan was the best ever and the rest of the food was top notch too. The person who owns or manages this restaurant obviously puts SO much effort into getting everything the best it can be. Portions generous, colourful and all looked and tasted freshly cooked. Definite 5 ⭐️

We live locally and eat here frequently. The restaurant is lovely and has white tablecloths, quite unusual in a local restaurant, but this place aims for quality. Last night we had another consistently great meal. I’d recommend the Kerala chicken dish. Over the years every meal we’ve ever had has always been excellent. The staff are great. A mix of locals and tourists come here as there are many guest houses/B&Bs, etc in the Newington area. Enjoy.

Was able to get a delicious gluten-free as well as tomato-free dinner right off the regular menu. (Tomato-free is often difficult in Indian restaurants) Elegant decor and table settings. Excellent service.

We regularly go to Voujon, both for takeaway and to sit in. The food and service is consistently excellent. We're looking forward to our next visit.

Fabulous food and very reasonably priced Nan bread Real napkins etc We would recommend a visit when in the area Ask for Mustafa

They were serving a table of around 30 Danish teens on a school visit, but this didnt detract from the excellent service we received. My wife had Kashmiri Murghi - a fruit-laden korma which she polished off with no trouble. I had my usual chicken madras - a great benchmark to measure a restaurant's culinary quality. Perfect sauce with a good daah of lemon juice, chicken breast cubes were moist and fresh. We also shared a mixed meats starter - lamb, chicken, keema slice and onion bhaji with salad and raitha dressing - delicious. As an indian restaurant connoseur (self-appointed) I would highly recommend this restaurant if youre in Edinburgh.

Have been here three times for dinner and the standard is always very high. Everything is delicious and there’s lots to choose from. The prices are very reasonable as well and the staff friendly.

I had order 2 portions of lamb chops which the restaurant guy told me is 11.95 each 1 garlic and 1 plain nan so it must be around 29 or 30 pound including the delivery fee as told on the phone and they charge me 35.20 pounds delivery driver was not friendly and they took 5 extra by saying in the end that the water burger sauce of no use is 2.5 pound each which I have thrown in the bin worst online experience be Careful

Very impressed with the starched white tablecloths and real napkins! The staff were ultra smart and the service was impeccable. The food was delicious and we will definitely go back. My only criticism is that it was too bright. I would suggest dimming or killing the downlights and putting a candle (fake one even) on each table to create more ambience. But overall it was pretty good.

Visiting Voujon is always an excellent experience, and we make a point of dining there whenever we visit Edinburgh, which we do regularly. It is friendly and civilised, and the food is first class. Invariably enjoyable.

Excellent visit as usual. Always a pleasure to eat here, service is excellent and food is fantastic. Very accommodating of allergies. Will happily visit again.

Good service. Friendly staff. Affordable menu options. Calm and quiet place. We had the non veg set menu for 2 persons. Had a very nice dining experience

"Great place to eat excellent Indian food" "Excellent curry housE in Edinburgh . Staff Are So Nice, "Tasty curry at a great price"

Positives: - Food was very good and tasty. - Service was reasonably good. Negatives: - A house fly kept landing on my Naan. - Doggie bag box had been used before (dry food not wet). - After Eight was the first in my life that wasn't the same as an After Eight.

They say you can judge the quality of cooking in an Indian restaurant by the quality of the lamb dishes, and how tender the meat is. We ordered a Lamb Karahi and a Chicken Jalfrezie. Both where exceptional (as was the pakora and assorted breads). The lamb was succulent and tender. We've been here many times over a number of years and it has consistently been excellent. We'll be returning before too long.

Terrific food! Great variety (had some kids) and ambiance. Nice staff. We would go back in a second!

Yet another fabulous curry at Voujon. Never leave disappointed. Service as always with a warm smile. Such a relaxed restaurant it's always something we look forward to. Now the food. The Jalfrezie and Khatta Tarkary were simply superb. Such depth of flavour chicken cooked to perfection. Naan soft and delicious and my favourite Sag Aloo the perfect balance of potato and spinach beautifully spiced. Thanks to all the team at Voujon from front of house to the wonderful chefs creating such magnificent food. Our go to restaurant in Edinburgh 👍👍

Expensive and not so tasty. My vegetable biryani wasn't that good. Disappointing. Friendly and warm

Favorite Indian restaurant in the UK and come back again and again every time I’m in Edinburgh. Can’t wait until the next visit.

Excellent Indian food: perfect so much so that we returned every day we were in Edinburgh.

Great reviews so gave it a go. First impression - very clean with sparkling white linen tablecloths. Excellent menu and wonderful food promptly served. Delicious. Nice staff. A definite return visit when we return to Edinburgh.

We had wonderful dinner , excellent service and good atmosphere. Testy food , we all are very much enjoed.

Great spot to experience Indian cuisine, a wide variety of options , choices galore - delicious food served in great timing and the servers were lovely and accommodating

As always excellent meal, starters and main all excellent quality, 3 of enjoyed the meal. The service was warm, friendly and efficient. One of our favourite places to eat out.

Great service, good food! Thank you!

This place is a wee gem. Food amazing. Huge portions. Everything we had was so good. Lots of choices. Great service. Hot plates. Wee negative place freezing when we arrived at 5pm. It slowly warmed up

Bangli Indian Style - Delicious - you Must Go Here! Get the Chicken Tikka as a main. My Guest House Host recommended me here - Barony House

I highly recommend this restaurant. Don't usually enjoy spicy food, but on suggestion of waiter had a delious meal.

We had a lovely evening in the Voujon. The service was brilliant, the food was wonderful, and the wine was exceptional. If you are in the Southside of Edinburgh you need to pay this restaurant a visit Personally recommend the Keralan Chicken.

I'm glad we stopped by to give Voujon a try. Good atmosphere and a good menu different from the usual Indian restaurant. Enjoyed my dish of half chicken curry. Although the chichen on the bone was slightly under cooked, which I needed to cut it about to avoid the under cooked bit. But it didn't distract me from a pleasant dish too much. Will try again.

Excellent Indian. Been our staple for well over a decade at this point. Extremely reliable and high quality food and the staff are all thoroughly lovely. Highly recommended.

Very good food and top Service.

I've been going to Voujon with my family since I was little, and evey time I go the food seems to get better! The staff are unfailingly polite and friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I moved cities 3 years go and I'm yet to find an Indian restaurant does food on par with Voujon; truly the food they serve is some of the best I've ever had, the flavours are complex and delectable, and come in a wide variety. If you're looking for a new place to go with your family, a romantic spot for a date, or even just a good Indian takeout, I can't reccomend this place enough!!

Great menu, food and service and nice atmosphere.

Service au petit soin, plats savoureux et abordables, je ne peux que recommander!

Amazing service, fabulous pakora and amazing chicken korma and tikka masala. Order deliveries all the time! Perfect food.

Heel lekker gegeten. Wie niet van pikant houdt, eet lekker met Biryani (je kan zelf kiezen of je er kip, scampi, ... bij eet). Ook 'Rhogan Josh" is niet pikant, maar je moet wel van koriander houden. Wie 'Madras' eet, gaat de iets pikantere weg op. Wij namen er naan met look bij en was heel lekker! Vriendelijke bediening. Het eten liet een beetje op zich wachten omdat het druk was, maar dat vergeet je onmiddellijk als je proeft wat voor lekkers je op uw bord krijgt!

I had a great meal good value for money very tidy clean good polite waiters I couldn't ask you for more

Absolutely fantastic, great fresh food, excellent service, reasonably priced,highly recommended, will be back....

Lovely restaurant with beautiful white tableclothsand napkins. The food was so good! And the staff were attentive but not overly so. We'll definitely be back.

Very authentic Bengali cuisine. Loved the starter of puri and prawns. Haven't had something so good for quite a while. All dishes were deliciously prepared and served with elegance.

I ordered shatkora lamb with ghebath and the were so nice like home made ! you guys should try at least once. and they had a special dish which was very delecious it felt like i was in a paradise 🫠 and its specially made...

Great curry place; went with 10 friends, efficient service, good food

Fantastic food, superb staff and an excellent evening as usual.

We were walking by this restaurant and it looked good, so we popped in for dinner. I was blown away by the friendliness of the staff and the excellent food. If you are looking for some Indian food while you are in Edinburgh, try Voujon!

An excellent authentic Indian experience. The staff were very helpful and the food was great! I would highly recommend the lamb Briyani it was delicious.

Just tried Voujon for the first time to celebrate our anniversary after a lot of recommendation from friends. It did not disappoint. I can’t think of one bad thing to say. Food was amazing, staff so friendly. Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Bon restaurant indien ouvert tard

Cannot praise this place enough. Had the chefs choice and even though it was the non veg option it didn't fill you up. It was blooming fantastic. Wine was excellent. The staff are very friendly. For me beat indian in town. Love it

This is the best restaurant we have been to for a long time. Food delicious , service excellent, could not fault it. This is going to become our go to place for a curry. The staff should all be proud of themselves.

Really good food and excellent service

Good menu with vegetarian choices. Had the Matar Paneer, paneer was chopped finer, which worked really well. Food is excellent and service is efficient and friendly. Would recommend this restaurant.

Excellent food and service. Will be sure to return again soon! The staff were very friendly and attentive.

Returned after a while away and it’s still the same excellent quantity of food and service as always. Will definitely not leave as long next time

Lovely place to eat, great food and excellent service. Very reasonably priced. Highly recommended if you like Indian food
