Saigon Saigon Dim Sum Restaurant
14 South St Andrew Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AZ
Expect the unexpected at Saigon Saigon. The area upstairs that, for the past five years, served up a Chinese buffet, was converted into a typical Chinese restaurant in January 2008. However, this isn't the biggest surprise: its reputation as a buffet…
Wok and Wine
57a Frederick Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1LH
Subtlety is key to Wok and Wine: its large honey-toned basement dining area is devoid of chintz and is lent an artful intimacy by bamboo blinds and screens. This tasteful neutrality rightly ensures that the focus is on the well-executed food. The…
Dragon-i
311–313 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3PT
Since opening opposite the Theatre Royal in 2003, Dragon-i has sat at the top table of Glasgow's Chinese restaurants, and owners Raymond and Susie Man are proud that their venture attempts something markedly different. With the décor, they've opted for…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
'Authentic' may be an over-used claim on many menus, but at Chop Chop it's entirely appropriate. Don't be fooled by the garish red and yellow façade: it might look like any other takeaway, but Chop Chop is the real deal. Genuinely charming and…
Izzi
119 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AN
With its wall of glass facing onto Lothian Road, selection of gelatinous permanent display dishes in the window, and slick modern interior with open serving area featuring a teppanyaki bar, Izzi has a fairly distinctive presence on the Edinburgh dining…
Loon Fung
2 Warriston Place, Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LE
Still going strong after 36 years, with a loyal following among locals, Loon Fung is undoubtedly doing something right. Specialising in Canton-style seafood, a two-person starter of chopped scallops with cashews and crisp vermicelli gives some…
Amber Chinese Restaurant
130-132 Byres Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8TD
The idea of a classy Chinese restaurant conjures up images of dimly-lit interiors with plush flock wallpaper and maybe an aquarium. The Amber retains the classiness and tries to refresh the traditional style with dark wood and drapery adorning the…
Peking Inn
191 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2UL
The mint-green colour scheme might feel a bit cold at first, but as the cheerful staff take your coat it very quickly it becomes apparent that the Peking Inn is both warm and welcoming. With views onto one of central Glasgow's busiest streets, the…
Amber Regent
50 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2QZ
From the classily understated sign in the window to the photos of celebrity customers at the entrance, and from the thick drapery that flanks paintings by a local artist to the cute little thistles that garnish each table, it's clear that Amber Regent…
Karen Wong's Chinese Restaurant
107–109 St Leonard's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QY
Slightly off the beaten track, this cute and kitsch wee place is dominated by its eponymous hostess. Whether she is dancing to the 80s power ballad soundtrack (don't worry, the music isn't that loud), or posing for photographs with one of the birthday…
Chow
98 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8TB
Bright lights, clean lines and minimal modern décor mark Chow out from most other Chinese restaurants in town. It's a little breath of fresh air that's been right at home among the hustle-bustle of Byres Road since opening its doors in 2002. Food is…
Jasmine Chinese Restaurant
32 Grindlay Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AP
The elegant interior and subdued orchestral music suggest that this is one of Edinburgh's more refined Chinese restaurants. But while this holds true for the food, on closer listening the seemingly classical music turns out to be an orchestral version…
Yen
28 Tunnel Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8HL
The North Rotunda is based in the heartland of what was once Clydeside's mighty shipbuilding industry. Today it's an increasingly incongruous relic of red brick Victoriana amid chain hotels, with the gleaming new BBC and STV bases across the water. Yen…
Silver Bowl
12 Albert Place, Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5HN
Silver Bowl has established itself as a creative takeaway that uses nothing but fresh ingredients. Although its menu has not changed in some time, it has little need to, as the choices are varied and fire in from all regions of China and Thailand.
Joanna's Cuisine
42 Dalmeny Street, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8RG
Although a little off the beaten track, near the bottom of Leith Walk, Joanna's is well worth the trek. The unassuming frontage belies the quality fare inside, which is all based on owner Joanna Wong's proud advocacy of healthy eating. The simple but…
Café Mao
84 Brunswick Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1TD
The relaxed atmosphere and pan-Asian menu at Café Mao have attracted a steady flow of easygoing diners for nearly a decade. Big windows, bright lighting and the primary colours of its branding make sure things don't get too formal, and the winning staff…
Ho Wong
82 York Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8LE
Ho Wong is arguably Glasgow's best-known Chinese restaurant, having built an impressive reputation during its quarter-century in business. The more the surrounding Broomielaw district has changed (there were no call centres 25 years ago), the more the…
Kampong Ah Lee Malaysian Delight
28 Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9HX
Malaysian eateries are somewhat thin on the ground in Edinburgh, so it's no wonder this family-run restaurant on the Southside is bustling night after night. Popular with the Malaysian community, Kampong has also proved a hit with local students, thanks…
The Rainbow Arch
8–16 Morrison Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8BJ
Hopefully a planned refurbishment in 2008 will breathe new life into this well-established and popular restaurant. Owner Henry Tse also owns the downstairs Henry's Cellar Bar, with which the restaurant shares its rather basic toilets. The planned…
SeeWoo Seafood Restaurant
The Point, 29 Saracen Street, Hamilton Hill,
Glasgow,
G22 5HT
This more recent addition to the Chinese dining scene is next to the huge supermarket of the same name, south of Possil Park. The restaurant is also gigantic, but, with a few partitions, the staff manage to make diners comfortable when there is less…
Yumla
80 Miller Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1DT
Yumla's snazzy entrance is not far from Argyle Street. But it is a doorway into an impressively grandiose space with a sense of calm one wouldn't think possible so close to the shopping thoroughfare. Décor is a clever blend of modern and imperial…
Kweilin
19–21 Dundas Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6QG
Chinese cuisine and fine dining don't often go hand in hand, but since 1984 Kweilin has built an enviable reputation for both. An impressive wine list ranging from the affordable to the extravagant indicates the high-end dining experience aimed for by…
China Buffet King
349 Sauchiehall Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 3HR
'All you can eat' at the two China Buffet King outlets in Glasgow means fast food in convivial atmospheres with a reasonable choice at buffets that are replenished frequently. The style is open and airy, with capacity for big groups (and large…
China Buffet King
349 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3HW
Glaswegians have a bit of a love affair with all-you-can-eat Chinese buffets. Although some speak of such establishments with disdain and despair, many – indeed, seemingly most – others appear to have an endless appetite for the concept (and the food).
Great Wall Chinese Restaurant
105–109 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,
EH13 9AN
If the Great Wall of China is visible from space, it's fitting that the Great Wall Chinese Restaurant occupies a similarly conspicuous position on Lothian Road. Behind the sizable façade, the décor is standard Chinese chintz – mirrored walls, myriad…
