This popular newcomer last year has quite literally taken a step up for 2011, with owner Assam Rashid moving his basement eatery to a street-level site two doors along. And it’s a lovely venue, with lots of daylight coming in through windows with…
Bonsai Bar Bistro
46 West Richmond St,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DZ
Pruning. An under-rated skill, but in the world of tiny trees – as in Japanese restaurants – a vital one. Luckily they have it in spades at Bonsai, with a commendably focused menu that doesn’t try to cover too many bases. And, where they do go in for…
Broughton Delicatessen

Café Sejuiced
77 Hanson Street,
Glasgow,
G31 2HF
Hidden as it is behind an old tobacco factory a short walk east from the City Centre, Café Sejuiced has had to rely upon word of mouth to gain its strong reputation for excellent soups, sandwiches and fresh fruit juices, and a welcoming and pleasantly…
56 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3SA

The Hidden Lane Tearoom
8 Argyle Court, 1103 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8ND
Despite its less than obvious location, the Hidden Lane Tearoom is often full to bursting so clearly the secret is out – and what a secret it is. The tearoom is set over two tiny floors decorated in a fashion that is clearly a labour of love. The…
Kampong Ah Lee Malaysian Delight
28 Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9HX
Every city has its secrets, those in-the-know places that are easy to miss in the search for better and brighter eating experiences. While it’s hardly off the beaten track, Kampong Ah Lee Malaysian Delight’s unassuming shop front and barely decorated…
Katie's Diner
12 Barclay Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HP
It’s a fine establishment that can pull off relaxed ambience with sophisticated flair, but Katie’s Diner does just that, attracting as many loyal locals as curious passers-by. With a lip-smackingly good menu, husband and wife team Geoff and Kate Ness…
Leven's
30-32 Leven Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9LJ
Just remember that faint heart never won fair anything, take a deep breath and plunge headfirst into Leven’s crazy, mixed-up world of fusion. There’s a lot going on, much of it good, and while every plate could do with losing at least one ingredient…
Loon Fung
2 Warriston Place, Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LE
Loon Fung has been dishing up Cantonese dishes to the residents of Canonmills for almost forty years and regulars still count for the majority of the business. And it is clearly the food as opposed to the functional décor that is the lure. Classics…

The stretch from Charing Cross to Kelvingrove is punctuated with top Indian restaurants, including this popular place which has been winning praise for two decades. Complimentary cups of haddock and potato soup are a lovely introduction, indicating the…

Rivage
126–130 Easter Road,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5RJ
Away from the city centre on busy Easter Road, Rivage is worth seeking out. Light and airy inside, the tandoori kitchen is open plan so all can see owner and head chef Ryad Meeajane cooking the food from scratch. The menu is relatively short, only two…
Rocksalt Café Deli
46 Constitution Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6RS
This converted Georgian printers’ in deepest old Leith is a gem of a find. High ceilings, huge windows and a grand chandelier are offset by comfy sofas and a split-level eating area to create a bright and welcoming space. It’s an ideal place to linger…
The Stockbridge Restaurant
54 St Stephen Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5AL
Scratch the surface of boho St Stephen Street, and underneath there’s something quite glossy going on. It’s the same with the Stockbridge Restaurant. Steep steps trailing ivy and fairy lights pitch down from the street to astragalled basement windows.

Two Fat Ladies in the City
118a Blythswood Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4EG
If The Buttery is Two Fat Ladies in a suit and the original West End branch more of a jeans and sweater affair, the City Centre outpost in Blythswood Street is the little black dress of the trio. There's a smart, big-city feel that befits a location at…
Wing Sing Inn
147–149 Dundee Street,
Edinburgh,
EH11 1BP
Often the plainest Chinese restaurants serve the best food. Well, Wing Sing Inn is no beauty queen but it’s what’s inside the kitchen that counts. This is not a first-date place: from the outside it looks like a takeaway joint. Lighting is harsh, the…
