The best restaurants in Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

We were here at lunchtime, wanted a coffee and a cake. The coffee and the cake didn't arrive...when we paid, they wanted to wrap it up?! Really? Sorry, that's not possible...the café itself is nicely decorated.

While the food is good, avoid this place on Friday evenings. Service is subpar, slow, and requires chasing staff for action. It's cash only. We ordered two mains, and they asked if we would accept the second after the first. If two people order simultaneously, we expect food to arrive at a similar time, not after one person finishes. They need more staff.

Excellent food. 18 pounds for the main course. Very friendly service and you have something to see, because beautiful art on the walls. Smooth service. Starter, main and coffee (and 1 drink) was 69 pounds for the two of us.

Amazing Spanish food. The authentic one!

Ontzettend lekker gegeten. Vriendelijke bediening. Lamscurry en chickentandoori was erg goed. Ook de pappadew als voorgerecht is een aanbeveling.

If you‘re looking for a very good Burgers, Crisps & Beer, go for this place!

Our server was spot on; he had a lot of spiel to remember and he aced it! The vibe from all the staff was chill and friendly but effortlessly professional. Drinks were delicious, I really appreciated including the ABV of each cocktail on the menu.

a hidden gem in the city!! 🌍❤️ warm, welcoming, vibe and the cozy decor draws you in. The food is outstanding, especially the Tarta La Llorona, pure heaven. From the friendly service to the thoughtful menu, makes this place feel special. Whether you’re stopping by for a casual bite or a full evening out, Indaba is the place to make wonderful memories ✨

Great pre theatre meal at Solti. Super friendly staff and gave us great recommendations. My lamb shank just fell off the bone and was delicious. The rest of my party all loved their choices and we finished off the meal with unusual but scrumptious desert of nutella peshawari nan with kulfi and Mango sorbet. Beautifully presented and just tasted amazing. Would definitely return and would recommend if you are eating before seeing a show over the road at the theatre or during festival time.

Best Indian in a long time. Extremely friendly service. Will definitely return and can highly recommend it. We had Chicken Lollipop starter & pappadoms & chutney. Main course Butter chicken, railway station Lamb (with spinach). Rice, Naan bread - stuffed & happy. Mango lassi was also delish xx

This is actually the best ice cream in the whole world no joke I’ve tried the pistachio, milk, dark chocolate, white chocolate and chilli, and the cherry one and they have all been so delicious and the staff are also so nice

Great affordable food, & nice staff.

Innecesariamente caro. Cenamos con bebidas por el mismo precio en un restaurante italiano mucho más exclusivo. La comida no es auténtica cocina turca: carne quemada, arroz agrio y pan insuficiente. Hay una zona de aparcamiento de pago, que cuesta £ 6 por hora. - - - - - Gereksiz pahalı. Aynı fiyata çok daha lüks bir İtalyan restoranında yemek yiyip içki içtik. Yemekler otantik Türk mutfağı değil — yanmış et, ekşi pirinç ve yeterli ekmek yoktu. Ücretli bir otopark var, saati £ 6 .

We loved the atmosphere and the food. Everything was delicious. Especially the duck on waffles.

Solía gustarme mucho este lugar por sus comidas vegetarianas a un precio razonable, pero mi reciente visita fue decepcionante. Pedí el tazón satay después de que el personal me dijo que era una comida completa. Por 16 libras. 50 , eran solo unas pocas verduras, una pequeña cantidad de tofu, y una salsa de maní sosa. Sin sabor real, se sentía muy mal en relación calidad-precio.
