The best restaurants in Scotland

Good food made to a high standard and a bit hotter than the norm so be prepared for a hot curry even when ordering medium spice on their menu. Still very good though.

Exceptional turkish cuisine, we took two combo tasting menus and everything was fantastic. Relaxed atmosphere in a cozy turkish inspired environment — and the owner is a very friendly and nice guy :)

Precio asequible, buen servicio, y pastel maravilloso. Este lugar está en el puente sur y es hasta la tierra, fácil de encontrar y los pasteles son maravillosos. Eso es todo lo que hay que decir, así que como tengo que escribir 100 palabras, estoy gofreando como un idiota por el resto de ella

Seafood Capital of Scotland you know.

When we first looked at the outside I must admit I was slightly sceptical thinking it was probably a very mid touristy place but we decided to give to a go and I am so glad we did. We were the first people there as it had only just opened and it was still quite early. As the restaurant was completely empty we were allowed to choose where we wanted to sit. The menu was varied and very reasonably priced with plenty of vegetarian options. Service was quick and the portions were perfect not too little but not so so much that we couldn’t finish it. For a family of 4 we ordered 4 main curries 2 rices and 2 naan’s as recommended by the server which turned out to be the perfect amount. The best Indian I’ve had in a long time and if we are ever in Edinburgh again we will definitely return! Highly recommend

Visited Rancho Pancho yesterday and I must say—this is hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve dined at in Dundee. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly welcomed by Maya, setting the tone for an amazing evening. I kicked things off with the Nachos Grande with chicken, paired with a glass of Big Wednesday. The nachos were phenomenal—crunchy, flavorful, and loaded, with possibly the best guacamole I’ve ever had (and I’ve tried a lot from different countries!). For my main, I had the Margarita Chicken: strips of marinated chicken breast pan-fried with cumin, chillies, garlic, cream, and a dash of Jose Cuervo Gold. It was beautifully plated and absolutely delicious. While it could’ve used a bit more spice, the flavors were still top-tier and well-balanced. It came with rice, sour cream, and flour tortillas—perfect accompaniments. I paired the meal with a glass of Pinot Grigio and later tried a Hurricane cocktail, which was refreshing and well-mixed. To finish, I went all out with a shot of Don Julio 1942—smooth and the perfect cap to the meal. Service & Atmosphere Special shoutout to Sarah and Maya who looked after me all evening. Their attentive and friendly service really made the experience stand out. The restaurant’s layout and vibrant décor create such a warm, festive vibe—it's Instagram-worthy and comfortable. From food to drinks to service, Rancho Pancho delivered on every level. Can’t wait to return!

Don't get a king size bed because then you will get a small space with only 1 chair... Pillows sleep badly No atmosphere

Lovely little pub with a great family atmosphere, wide range of drinks, lovely food and great service.

Great experience from start to finish. The food is exceptional. We had 6 different tapas for the two of us. I'll definitely visit again

Great place to eat a burger or something. I have the idea that the locals go for the fish and chips. Ambiance is also good.

Foe that price it does not get any better in Edinburgh. It is an institution.

Excellent choice of food, tasty and delivered quickly too

Nice food and friendly service. Table booking and front of house is friendly but chaotic and could definitely be improved to the benefit of both customers and the restaurant itself.

Very disappointed. Actually baffled at the price we paid for the amount of food given, I understand small plates but today was a joke, even the soft drinks that were filled with ice cubes that melted into the glass before it was even placed on the table were £4. (Each for a coke and an iron bru) Also the food came lukewarm probably closer to cold. Staff were not very warm either to be honest. Overall a very bald review of this place and most definitely won’t be back, overpriced rubbish. Couldn’t of got out of there faster.

food was dry and quantity also very less
