Xanadu Chinese Restaurant
13–14 Dalziel Place, Meadowbank, Edinburgh, EH7 5TP
Husband and wife team Colin and Irene Chiu run this friendly neighbourhood restaurant perched just off the main road through Meadowbank. Named after an emperor’s summer palace, Xanadu’s own decor is simple and functional with Chinese scenes on the pale…
Tanjore
6–8 Clerk Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9HX
Relative newcomer Tanjore brings a wealth of south Indian cuisine to its Newington locale, wrapped up in a friendly and relaxed café setting. Owner and head chef Boon Ganeshram switches between open kitchen and compact dining area, describing tapas…
Suruchi
14a Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9DH
Sitting directly opposite the Festival Theatre, Suruchi will always attract late-night diners and pre-theatre bargain hunters. The real challenge is to inspire regulars in this highly competitive neck of the woods. The owners seem alive to criticism of…
Dragon Way
74–78 South Clerk Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9PT
Dragon Way is certainly not your run-of-the-mill Chinese restaurant. Yes, the friendly staff serve up generous portions of shredded duck rolls and sesame prawn toast, spicy Lar Chee beef and slightly-less-spicy Cheung Bau chicken. And yes, you can get a…
Saffrani
11 South College Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9AA
This small restaurant tucked away off Nicolson Street has retained its all-round quality through a recent change in ownership, with an extensive list of curries from a variety of Indian regions. To start, chicken chat is a substantial dish of spicy…
Howies at Waterloo
29 Waterloo Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3BQ
While things below the waterline have been a bit frantic since the original owners bought back Edinburgh’s two remaining Howies in late 2011, above the surface everything is typically calm. The Waterloo Place restaurant is a stylishly decorated, well…
Steak
12 Picardy Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3JT
Steak is one of a new wave of Edinburgh steakhouses influenced by the likes of London’s much-lauded Hawksmoor. It’s aiming for hi-octane glamour that would be more at home in the Meatpacking district in New York City, but Edinburgh could do with a dose…
9 Cellars Thali
1–3 York Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3EB
Don’t judge this restaurant by the glowing photographs of food in the window display. To get an idea, just speak to chef and owner Phool Thakur, who’ll tell you of his history cooking in some fine establishments in India, and now serves much more than…
Petit Paris Petit Paris
38–40 Grassmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2JU
Cheek by jowl in the middle of the traffic-eased Grassmarket, Petit Paris uses all available spaces to fit check-clothed tables into its lively, friendly venue. More enthusiastically French than many of its competitors, a genuine welcome greets each…
Sweet Melindas
11 Roseneath Street, Edinburgh, EH9 1JH
Sweet Melindas is the very definition of cosy neighbourhood hangout. The one-room Marchmont restaurant’s white-painted wooden panelling, found black-and-white photographs and shelves of assorted bric-a-brac lend it a quaint but pleasant ambience, and…
Indian Lounge
129a Rose Street, Edinburgh, EH2 3DT
The family-run Indian Lounge is central enough for most of the city to grab a curry on their way home, and there’s a lot to recommend that you do. Prices are considerably more reasonable than you might expect from the central – or any – location, staff…
Absolute Thai
22 Valleyfield Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9LR
The Tollcross area of Edinburgh isn’t short of Thai restaurants. Absolute Thai is hidden away down a side street but still stands out from the crowd through its unpretentious feel, reasonable prices and BYOB approach to booze. Since opening in 2009…
Leven's
30-32 Leven Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9LJ
With its shiny surfaces, colour-changing LED lighting and leather chairs, Leven’s could be any type of eatery on first appearances. It’s only on entering that the warm welcome and seductive sweety-spicy smells make it clear that this is a Thai…
Deans at Let's Eat
77–79 Kinnoull Street, Perth, PH1 5EZ
Deans @ Let’s Eat in the Fair City’s Kinnoull Street bills itself as 'a true taste of Scotland'. The restaurant’s family team of head chef Willie Deans, his wife Margot, and sons Lee (the manager) and 17-year-old Jamie (already a talented chef), serve…
Berits & Brown
6 Wilson Street, Glasgow, G1 1SS
In the heart of the merchant City, which is particularly good looking at night these days, Berits and Brown offers a small taste of a New York style neighbourhood diner. It is a big draw for wine buffs – any bottle on sale in the off license can be…
Assam’s
57 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 2AE
Assam’s has quickly affirmed itself as a City Centre mainstay, having only been in its current premises two years. The restaurant is grand and elegant, with split level dining and huge luxurious circular booths – it certainly has the air of fine dining…
Nur
22 Bridge Street, Glasgow, G5 9HR
Run by a Scots-Egyptian couple, Nur is an oasis of warmth, friendliness and good food. A cosy mezzanine is furnished with low tables, divans and plenty of cushions, while the downstairs dining space is dotted with shisha pipes, papyrus and pottery. As…
Canasta Bistro
1102 Cathcart Road, Mount Florida, Glasgow, G42 9EG
Within a pizza throw of Hampden stadium, Canasta has become a celebrated restaurant in Glasgow's Mount Florida – an area not known for great dining options. It's cosy inside, with chequered tablecloths and scatter cushions contributing to an informal…
The Bay Tree Café
403 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9HY
Around since 1960, the Bay Tree Café has a relaxed air to it, the walls and shelves decorated with various Arabian/Mediterranean knick-knacks. If the décor evokes one region though, then the menu is far broader ranging. The breakfast menu is available…
Mother India
28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7RU
A much-loved Glasgow institution, Mother India's flagship restaurant is set over three floors, each with its own unique character. The small dining area on the ground floor is bright and casual, the first floor is grand with dark wood and candles, and…
Athena Greek Taverna
1116 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TD
This restaurant is a cosy and welcoming place, with years of preparing Greek fare behind it – one of the owner’s grandfathers ran the original Athena Greek Taverna in the city’s Southide, and culinary skill has obviously been passed on. The hummus makes…
Thai Siam
1191 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TQ
Occupying a steadily gentrifying section of Argyle Street, Thai Siam is a neighbourhood favourite with a friendly atmosphere. The décor is a bit curry house circa 1990, plus large wall reliefs of the Buddha and the menu also appears to have stayed the…
eat café
69 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
Opened in autumn 2011, this expansion of the highly rated eat deli into 'Southside central' is a relaxing day-time café/evening bistro that hasn’t taken long to find its feet – nor its fan base judging by the eager lunchers who come in for a coffee and…
The Wee Curry Shop
41 Byres Road, Glasgow, G11 5RG
The Wee Curry Shop on Byres Road is a casual affair with the ambience of a 1970s living room. A team of chefs work in an open kitchen as you enter the restaurant. Most seating is on the mezzanine directly above this kitchen, so the air up here is hot…
Neelim
1590 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G14 9DB
After two decades of serving loyal Scotstoun locals, Neelim must be doing something right. Couples and families flock here, whether it be for a sit-down dinner or some takeaway dishes to enjoy at home, and it can fill up even on week nights. The menu…
