The best restaurants in City Centre Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

I'm slightly biased as i love nearby and eat here frequently. but there is no better pizza this side of town (sorry civerinos, i still love you tho). morattis is the closest to honest family pizza you can get and accommodates anything they can. i can't describe how lucky we are too have this place near our home and between our home and work places and so close to Edinburgh old town!

Fast food, flesh in good condition but no spices. Pretty okay.

Lovely setting in a grand old building. The service was very attentive and nice. Food was pretty good. The Goan fish curry was well executed (good spice) and was nice with a bottle of Macon Chardonnay. Really enjoyable evening and would return. Reasonably priced as well.

We stopped by Frites for a snack and, based on the waitress’s recommendation, tried the Chicken Tikka Goodness. We went for the large size to share, and the fries were flavorful and satisfying as a meal. However, the place lacked a seating area, even for waiting, so we ended up enjoying our fries on the stairs of Usher Hall nearby.

Randomly looking somewhere to eat passed by at this restaurant, my partner loves indian food so we tried. Friendly and polite staff, we didnt book they’re not that busy and they welcomed us, it took 15mins and food is served. The fastest outside dinner we had 🤭 Higly recommend.

This was my first time here with colleagues from work, We did book in advance, (I would advise you do this). Easy to get to from Waverley, nice decor, Plenty of food choices, good selection of cocktails, Would go back.

Nice meal, Nice staff, friendly atmosphere

Everything excellent. Exquisite ramen. Highly recommended!

The parking lot below is small and inconvenient. Otherwise everything was ok, cozy hotel

Another excellent meal here, highly recommend. All dishes were fantastic and the accompanying wine was amazing.

Came for a friend's birthday. Food and drinks were amazing. Even one of the chefs, Leon took the time to wish my friend happy birthday

My grandson loves coming here for lunch and using baby chopsticks.

Went in for a quick lunch on the break in our walking tour. Got the chicken frankie and the dumplings. They were very good about my allergies and the food was great.

Would've been 4 stars but the pizza toppings were on the stingy side. Very nice nonetheless

I recently visited this dump and had one of the worst experiences I've lever had at a bar. To start, I participated in a drinking contest that was completely unfair. The rules were changed on the spot, and there was no transparency about how the contest was being judged. But what made things worse was the behavior of the bar manager. Not only was he dishonest about how the contest was being run, but when I raised my concerns, he was dismissive and rude. It became clear that the staff were not prioritizing safety or fairness. As a woman, I also felt deeply uncomfortable at times. There was no effort to ensure that the space was welcoming or safe for all customers. The manager’s attitude and the overall environment made me feel unsafe, and I would not recommend this bar to anyone, especially women. This place needs serious management changes, and I would urge people to stay away until the bar addresses these issues. There are plenty of other places in town where you can have fun and feel respected.
