The best restaurants serving Indian food in Edinburgh and Lothian

Chaskaa is my number 1 curry take away service. Like most Indian curry lovers, I have tasted many curries throughout Edinburgh and Chaskaa Punjabi Murgh - one of their specials is the best I have ever had and will continue to have. Their Chicken Pakoras are the best we have ever had, just as the onion bhajis were delightful. I have recommended this place to work collogues who have visited the restaurant to eat in and loved my recommendation: Karahi, Punjabi Murgh, both dishes they loved. I have been in the restaurant to collect my order and the staff are the best, I mean really could not get nicer people, very friendly and who take the honour of serving you, the same goes for the delivery person , we have seen a few different drivers and every single one of them makes you feel like 5 star service, the food, the packaging, the staff, everything is perfect. I would recommend. Just an FYI, you get money back on each order, its like a points loyalty system, on average we get £2 on each order back into our chaskaa account, it feels great after a few orders you end up with a free curry or even a free meal.

Not for the first we've used Koshi for a special occasion and as usual a really positive experience. Friendly staff Great choice of Indian / Nepalese dishes. Only wish we lived closer!!

I am a great lover of Indian food and as I’ve only moved to the area a couple of years ago and tried many Indian restaurants in the area I would rank this as one of the best. Both sit in and takeout food is excellent and the staff are so hospitable and such ambassadors of the restaurant. I would highly recommend that you try this restaurant and will return on many occasions

Me sorprendió lo ocupado que estaba, ya que no había oído hablar de ello de mis amigos que son locales de Edimburgo. Estábamos encantados con el servicio de comida y toda la experiencia sin duda volverá en mi próximo viaje al norte.

Pedí una entrega, la comida fue fenomenal, muy recomendable, tanto sabor en cada bocado, ¿las samosas?

I was recommended by a friend to try this takeaway, I went for the North Indian garlic chicken and my partner had the lamb karahi, with a fish pakora starter and lamb chops, the food was amazing I have never tried better food like this before, the staff are very nice and recommend dishes if you not sure what to get, will definitely be back, will try the Parmesan next as I have heard that is very nice

Es barato y muy buena comida, buenas ofertas demasiado, pizza y un kebab por una fiver en ofertas especiales , uso bastante a menudo!!

The food was 100/100! Staffs are very friendly & attentive. Service was superb. Nepalese hospitality. Will definitely come back soon.

This bistro is 1.5 miles from the East end of Princes St. On the bus route up North & South bridge to Newington (about 10 minutes). This is small, friendly, elegant restaurant. The owner is so kind and welcoming. As local residents we love coming here as the quality of the ingredients and cooking is superb. It’s not your typical Indian menu. Dishes we enjoy are Crispy fried okra, Dirty Samosa chat, Prawn Malabar, Ghee roast chicken and Lal mas. They also serve a Tasting Menu. Vegetarian/Vegans also catered for. A small wine list. Would love to see a Tapss style evening event as their amuse bouche was outstanding.

Authentic Indian food Loved there lamb biryani

We had the grill plate for 2 people and were thrilled :)

The food is delicious and the quantity is good for the price. The staff are respectful, so don’t miss the biryani 😋

Go there with your eyes closed. Incredible flavors, super efficient service and such a warm welcome! Thank you for these good times Nutan!

Never disappointed when ordering. The food is amazing

Good food and service. The atmosphere was fine but had some flaws. You come here you eat good and that's it.
