The best restaurants serving Asian food in City Centre Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

Lovely atmosphere, service was friendly and attentive, and most importantly I ate the best Vietnamese food I never experienced in Scotland.

This place simply does not disappoint. Whether it is the speedy and friendly service or the beautifully laid out food that fulfills all your cravings, you must visit this place. There are a lot of vegan restaurants that boast being great, yet they lack the key ingredient: simply great food, without anything extra. For a vegan restaurant, I look for comforting flavours that deliver and make me and my tummy happy. I have finally found a place I can openly recommend to everyone. Reasonable prices, great services, friendly atmosphere and food you can actually be happy with. I need to go back here, asap. You should too.

Very good food and service. Good vibe and a good mixture of Afghani and Pakistani dishes. We tried Kabuli pilau and the portions were so big. Food was very delicious and the lamb was so succulent. The prices are so fair considering such a big portion. Fantastic place and will go back when I am in Edinburgh again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This Thai restaurant offers stunning views and an incredible dining experience. The Chiang Mai curry was particularly unique and bursting with flavor, and all the dishes were made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. It’s clear a lot of care goes into the food preparation. Our host was very polite and helpful, which added to the experience. However, we did request to be seated at a more spacious table and, unfortunately, were not accommodated. While this was a bit disappointing, it didn’t overshadow the overall quality of the meal and service. I’d highly recommend this place for the food and views—just wish the seating arrangements were more flexible.

Lovely place, staff is extremely friendly and welcoming, food was great, drinks are great, it's a safe space, and the vibes are great. couldn't recommend it more!

This place has just amazing food! I had one of their signature dishes, and it was worth a try. Sorry to say, but if I didn't read about it on Tripadvisor up front, I would definately passed by. But despite an anonymous front, they mantain a good atmosphere inside. So close to the busy Royal Mile, still the friendly staff manage to create a relaxed experience.

always great, bit pricey but I think worth it. Music could be improved upon. Sometimes its old city-pop or jpop but other times its some weird semi modern pop which does not match the athmosphere of the place.

Nok's Kitchen Thai restaurant near Edinburgh Castle, I recommend it!" I recommend calling to reserve a table. It's very good because it's close to tourist attractions. It's full every day. The staff are good, the atmosphere is good, the food is delicious, Singha draft beer is available, and if you don't have Khao Gaenia, For mango, try black sticky rice and longan with 1 scoop of ice cream. Delicious, not too sweet, good. Real Thai taste near Edinburgh Castle, highly recommended

Well done! I have been dining here frequently and a few dishes are exceptional. To begin with their starters, the dishes that stand out to me are their paneer chili starter and paneer tikka starter. Their service is also excellent, and the staff is very helpful. I would highly recommend this place, and it is completely worth spending my money.

Tried khukuri veg thali and all the items served were good (hot, tasty and spicy as requested). Would recommend if you are looking for nepali food.

the lamb was really nice and tender the sauce exceptionally good.Will I order again? definitely!

Had a lovely meal; spicy 3 mushroom Pho, and summer rolls and veg spring rolls, and the new smoked fish offering at the bottom of the menu (that was great!) Everyone was lovely and attentive but especially Josh who took care of our table was always mindful of our needs and really made it such a nice night. We came at 6:30 on a Thursday, short wait, but by 7:10 we could see a big line up outside, so I’d suggest coming a bit earlier if you prefer not to wait. Yum yum!

Had the Thai Green Curry. They do say you eat with your eyes and the presentation was beautiful and appealing. The taste did not disappoint either. Excellent. Wish I’d taken a pic now! Great relaxed vibe too.

Lovely service, delicious sushi and a great lunch menu with starters and a main.

Is this the best Chinese food I've had? No, but they offer most items gluten free which is a rare find, especially chow mein.
