The best restaurants in Elgin City South Moray Highlands and Islands

Zaika is the best Indian takeaway in Elgin without a doubt. It’s a small family owned takeaway and everything is cooked fresh. I can honestly say I have never had a bad experience here. My favourite is the Chicken Tikka Masaladar, it’s very spicy with a kick but also has a sweet tang to it. Highly recommend this. I have tried most of the speciality dishes and they are just equally as good.

The best place to eat in Elgin. Everything is fresh and delicious, soups, wraps, bagels and daily specials. One word of advice when you do visit, ALWAYS leave room for the cake! ( or get it to take away, you won’t regret it.)

Very good food! Ordered Korean loaded fries and classic cheese burger was really flavourful! Would recommend if in the area

Good food but condescending, rude staff and overpriced to sit in a plain, white wall room. We pay the same price in some of the best places in the west end of Glasgow so when we came here when visiting family it was a shock. Not to mention the reception and service from the staff. Would not come back.

Outstanding Performance, Cajun chicken baguette was amazing & the ham & potato soup was amazing so very happy and lovely staff, thank you.

The Bearded Chef catered our Wedding in September and the food was fantastic! Aaron and Kayleigh were both absolutely amazing and we can't thank them enough. The menu was tailored to us with new dishes and a personalised wedding cocktail as the welcome drink. The canapés were great but the main meal really stole the show. Melon with sorbet, smoked salmon and lentil soup were our choice of starters. Followed by haggis sagaloo pie, chicken stuffed with chorizo mousse with paprika sauce, fondant potatoes & veg medley and sweet potato cakes as the 3rd option. For dessert we had a trio so everybody could have a bit of everything. Highly recommend Bearded chef and would definitely use them again in future.

Excellent food and service, always greeted with a smile. The food is amazing, proper flavour, not just spice like some places.

Terrible ! Expensive and not good quality . It’s crazy of the price and portion they charge considering the quality and quantity . I will never recommend and come back .

Searched Google for places to eat breakfast whilst visiting and came across The Ditsy Teacup. What a find. Excellent food. Friendly, helpful and polite staff and a really pleasant setting. Will definitely visit again when next in the area. Trying the homemade fresh scones is a must!

A stylish restaurant with excellent service, elegant beautifully presented food and delicious wines. Only complaint iscthat there is only one vegetarian choice so we wouldn't want to go regularly and have the same dish each time. But for special occasions it's a lovely treat.

Dismal service. Took almost an hour to get food - 2 pizzas and a garlic bread. Food was ok, nothing special, ate half at most. By the time it arrived, needed to eat or would have just left. Owner not helpful, not accepting they were in the wrong and made me feel uncomfortable. Very disappointing. Had been looking forward to it but won’t be back.

For traditional home baked pizza this is definitely the place to go, amazing value, and selection of toppings, friendly service, and if you still have room, great selection of home bakes for afters. Well worth a visit.

Food was great and delicious, thank you chefs.Service as ever spot on attentive and pleasant.

The only place for my sandwich. Plenty of variety friendly staff

Nice local for a pint with a cosy open fire
