Mosque Kitchen
Edinburgh Central Mosque, 50 Potterrow,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9BT
Nip down a lane in the Southside and discover one of Edinburgh’s worst kept secrets. The Mosque Kitchen has been feeding the locals, students and tourists since 2004, and long may it continue. Diners sit at trestle tables outdoors, protected from the…
The King's Wark
36 The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6QU
Such is its reputation for cosy bar meals – their hefty fish-cakes, potent seafood chowder and steak sandwich are simple but superb, and certainly a cut above the competition – that you’d be forgiven for not knowing the King’s Wark has a lot more to…
L'escargot Bleu
56/56A Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3SA
Broughton Street’s raffish air has always been complemented by a diverse range of epicurean delights, and L’escargot Bleu’s appearance in the neighbourhood in early 2009 is a very worthy addition. In many ways it’s a perfect blend of the two elements of…
Kampong Ah Lee Malaysian Delight
28 Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9HX
What a find! Anyone who has experienced the delights of Malaysian food will be pleased to know that there is an inconspicuous gem hiding in Edinburgh’s Southside. This low-key, family-run operation attracts the Malaysian community and large numbers of…
The Outsider
15/16 George IV Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1EE
With a dark brooding exterior and much the same atmosphere inside, The Outsider has something of a reputation for being a little bit too cool for school. That said, the ambience is cosy and if you’re lucky enough to be seated at the back, the view of…
Sushiya
19 Dalry Road,
Edinburgh,
EH11 2BQ
Sushiya has occupied its understated position on Dalry Road for the last four years. Although the simple restaurant front blends into its surroundings, this establishment is almost always full, partly due to its compact size, but mainly because of a…
The Tearoom @ The Butterfly and the Pig
153 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4SQ
The spirit of Miss Cranston is alive and well in Bath Street’s newest tearoom. With the unlikely name of Butterfly and Pig, the décor, like the crockery, is eclectic, eccentric and a little old fashioned. The only hint of modernity is an incongruous…
The Apartment
7–13 Barclay Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HW
After a busy ten years on Barclay Place it seems unlikely that anyone would be unfamiliar with The Apartment's decision to dispense with starters in favour of a range of eminently shareable char-grilled skewers dubbed 'chunky healthy lines'. However…
The Grill on the Corner
21–25 Bothwell Street,
Glasgow,
G2 6NL
With its crystal chandeliers, dark leather seating and formally attired staff, The Grill on the Corner is self-consciously classy. These days you might be lucky to see pinstriped businessmen tucking into whole lobster or chateaubriand, but this is where…
99 Hanover Street
99 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DJ
Stride into 99 Hanover Street and you'll be greeted by the comforting open arms of its plush armchairs, heavy wooden tables and ornate floral upholstery – on weekdays, at least. Enter on a Friday or Saturday night and the atmosphere is much more…
Hot Hot Chinese
60 Home Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9NA
From the outside, Hot Hot Chinese looks fairly anonymous; the interior is plain white walls with landscape scenes, white tables and chairs. It serves hotpot, the Chinese version of fondu, with two people minimum order. This is cook-your-own fun and very…
Capitol
468 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3LN
Capitol is a bar that markets itself as the epicentre of lad and ladette culture, boasting endless sport on 11 televisions and a big screen, regular DJ sessions, quizzes and live music events five nights out of seven. (There are even private karaoke…
The Bothy
11 Ruthven Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BG
This laid-back bistro restaurant sits just off Byres Road in the heart of the West End. Its warm, comfy interior includes formal dining as well as low tables and leather sofas arranged around a central bar. Mirrors and figurative paintings adorn William…
Rumours Kopitiam
21 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1HW
From an elevated first-floor site at the junction of Bath Street and West Nile Street, the canteen tables and day-glo specials signs of Rumours give a real sense of a Malaysian street cafe. Fresh-cut chillies and fragrant coriander enhance the flavours…
Asia Style
185–189 St George's Road,
Glasgow,
G3 6JD
This very basic-looking Chinese and Malaysian restaurant is well hidden yet well known for serving ‘real’ Chinese food – not just the bastardised Western versions of kung po or chicken curry, and this is certainly borne out by its strongly Chinese…
Cameo Bar
23 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6JA
The Cameo Bar doesn’t seem to have settled on a single decorative style. There is a touch of the contemporary (see the beige suede benches); there is a little Edwardian (see the red and brown flock wallpaper) and there is a bit of traditional pub (dark…
E:S:I - Englishman, Scotsman and an Irishman
46 Queen Charlotte Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 7EX
There was an Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman who opened a restaurant … It might sound like the start of a well-worn joke, but thankfully this sprightly newcomer to Leith’s increasingly crowded eating-out scene takes its food seriously. Housed in…
The Glasshouse at Eskmills
Stuart House, Eskmills, Station Road,
Musselburgh,
EH21 7PQ
It may be out of town, but there's nothing country bumpkinish about this stylish venue. The grey stone quadrangle of restored former mill buildings at Eskbank makes a sober counterpoise to the airy modernity of the Glasshouse. In the daytime, the…
The Social
27 Royal Exchange Square,
Glasgow,
G1 3AJ
Location is key for this trendy city centre bar/brasserie in the G1 Group's stable of stylish ventures. A huge square bar dominates the interior space, surrounded by dark wooden tables and leather pouffes. A mixture of suits and pre-clubbers rub…
A Room in the Town
18 Howe Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TG
There's something wonderfully homely about A Room in the Town that belies its location on one of the busy thoroughfares leading from Edinburgh's city centre to the New Town. Like its sister branches, the restaurant combines a warm, friendly welcome and…
Drawing Room
1055 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7UD
The Drawing room is lucky to enjoy one of the best locations in Glasgow: a stunning view of the Art Gallery and University at Kelvingrove. Its (many) other qualities, though, have less to do with chance and simply come down to thought and imagination. A…
Zen Kitchen
138 Dundas Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5DQ
With its pale-wood interior and bold, red logo, Zen Kitchen’s smart appearance indicates its fresh, modern approach. Head chef and owner Lawrence Chan’s skilful cooking produces crisp, savoury pot-sticker pork dumplings, spicy Tom Yum Koong packed with…
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…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
'Authentic cuisine' has become a tired old phrase, but for one restaurant that can boldly lay claim to genuine authenticity, look no further than Chop Chop. The strength of its case comes from the experienced hands of the head chef who hails from North…
