The best restaurants in Edinburgh and Lothian

Great food, and friendly staff. Reasonably priced too 😁

A really stunning meal, expertly explained at each course by a knowledgeable chef. Waiting staff were lovely and the seasonal local ingredients beautifully prepared. The room is the only let down. Lacks atmosphere and slightly jars with the food experience but we thought, overall, Aizle was well worth the visit. An excellent meal!

Pizzologist is hands down the best place in Edinburgh to experience authentic Italian pizza without leaving the city! The pizzas are absolutely delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors that transport you straight to Italy. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great spot for both casual dinners and special occasions. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall wonderful experience. If you're a pizza lover, this is a must-visit!

We stumbled upon this little gem tonight. Absolutely loved the two mains that we ordered - pork and duck… delicious flavour soooo yummy. Can’t fault it. The spring rolls as a starter was a bit average and overdone. Thicker ones with more flavour and a good sized dip would have been preferred. The pistachio desert was good also! The manager, chef and staff were so friendly and helpful, it felt very close nit and personal. We have booked to come again.

best food in edinburgh. go get an empanada here -- you won't regret it!

tasty! The boss is very nice! I’ll eat it next time I come!

i’ve lived in edinburgh and london and between the two places this was one of the most delicious meals i’ve had out omg. i’m vegan i had the tofu pho (if you don’t eat meat then specify this because the default broth is meat based) and also tried the lotus leaf sticky rice and tofu. both were amazing. both the cocktails were also incredible (the lychee margarita and the lemongrass mojito). highly recommend

They were lovely and the fish and ships was delicious! Thank you

Good food but small and unfortunately the ventilation doesn't work... so eat outside...

Great cocktails and good selection of ciders/ beers

Lovely homemade scones and in a relaxed atmosphere. Plenty on street parking nearby.

I've got a pizza number 12 and it was a HUUUUUGE mistake. This thing is so disgusting that after 2 bites it landed in rubbish. Terrible experience. Sorry Matto but I never tried such an inedible thing. You should remove this from your menu. 13£ wasted in a rubbish!!!

Our dishes were very tasty with fresh ingredients and served with warm smiles.

I ordered a lamb burger. Very dry cutlet. slightly burnt in places. Arabic music, too loud. I do not advise.

Amazing place, food, wine and service - I would definitely come back when I visit Scotland and Edinburgh again and will definitely recommend it to everyone!!!
