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

Food is authentic and high quality. Staff are brilliant and the service is great. Atmosphere is happy and bubbly, music and plenty buzz.

Everything was literally perfect

The food was a low quality, the service was good and quick service. The people should aks how the tip is split between staff. After speak with some of the waiters i belive. Most part go to managment and supervisor and no much is from waiter and other low rank staff. They said to us the manager decided how to split the pot and press staff to do extra hours. I find this disgusting

Thoroughly enjoyable experience. Food was great and reasonably priced. Personally I can thoroughly recommend the cajun chicken which was as plentiful as it was delicious. Service was excellent and it was great to be greeted by a few words in Welsh, being from south Wales. Cannot recommend enough!

Went in this little cafe place as chance , and wow, breakfast was delicious! Great selection of items on the menu and selection of cakes too! Can’t fault the service too! Will definitely return to this little gem when we are back in Edinburgh!

Hanams was one of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh so I was excited to go back. I assumed it was going to be the same as the menu hadn’t changed much. It appears to be run by different people now who aren’t from the Middle East. The food is nowhere near the levels it used to be. The lamb was overcooked and the chicken didn’t have the authentic clay oven charring. It was almost like it had been cooked in an air fryer or oven so seriously lacked flavour and not what I was looking forward to. We ordered prawns for main which arrived with no bread and a small amount of salad. Not really what you expect for a main meal, especially given it was about £20. The Halloumi fries were quite nice but nowhere near as good as they used to be. The place was empty on a Friday night which I think tells you this place has went downhill as it used to be difficult to get a table at the weekends. Despite being empty we had to go up and ask for the bill as the service was poor and the staff weren’t very attentive. I’m afraid I won’t be going back, which is a shame as I used to love this place.

The hospitality here was second to none. I felt like I was in a family owned cafe, off the beaten path on the Continent. I ordered the Eggs Benedict and they were some of the best I evet had. I'm frustrated that we didn't discover Luscious until the last morning of our stay in Edinburgh. Well worth a visit.
