This review is taken from the current (2012) edition.
Following in the footsteps of Glasgow and Stirling, November 2011 saw the appearance of Kama Sutra on Lothian Road. With menu and décor consistency across all venues, exposed brickwork, dark wood furniture and imported carved artwork lend warmth to the comfortable well lit restaurant. The à la carte menu features a number of fish and seafood dishes complementing regional classics, sizzling tandoori and familiar vegetarian sides. Coconut rich Goan sauce adds sweet notes to a heavily seasoned monkfish tawa machi while venison zyakedar main doesn’t quite bring enough gamey depth to its massala gravy. Crispy onion rings and cooling dips support marinated duck and grilled scallops on a starter list featuring poori, kebab and haggis pakora. Two-course lunch and buffet options make way for a good value pre-theatre offering all supported by a comprehensive wine and cocktail list. While the décor is well intentioned, front of house is efficient and the menu has interest, there is a sense that the overall experience doesn’t quite equate to the sum of its parts.
- High point: Well composed interior
- Low point: Greasy menu cover
