L'Alba D'Oro
5–7 Henderson Row,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5DH
A chippy that offers prawns with garlic and ginger – choice of single or supper, of course – alongside the traditional favourites has got to be something a bit different. L'Alba D'Oro (the name means 'dawn of gold') is a long-established leader in…
Chiang Mai
15 Dalry Road, Haymarket,
Edinburgh,
EH11 2BQ
With the hectic activity of Haymarket just outside the window, Chiang Mai has long been a welcome haven of South East Asian calm for locals, commuters and rugby fans alike. Watched over by portraits of the Thai royal family, the lofty restaurant is…
The Clay Oven
86 Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4BY
Located at the Bruntsfield/Morningside crossover point, the Clay Oven feels very much like a neighbourhood restaurant. Well laid out, with smart décor and attentive staff, it's the kind of place you can rely on. The food may not rock your world, but…
The Deep Sea Takeaway
2 Antigua Street, Leith Walk, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3NH
The Deep Sea, which has been around since 1920, has minimal décor and no seating, and wastes no time with frills or gimmicks. Its location amongst some of the busiest clubs and pubs in Edinburgh still ensures a healthy trade. The dough is made fresh on…
Dusit
49a Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DY
Hearty Scottish produce and exotic Thai flavours may not make for the most obvious culinary marriage, but it's one that Dusit's skilled chefs consistently pull off with aplomb. All the usual favourites, such as intensely hot and sour tom yum soup…
Efes
42 Leven Street, Tollcross,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9LJ
This kebab shop is such a Tollcross institution it seems as if it has been around since the beginning of time. The staff are always polite and helpful, although this doesn't matter in the slightest to the shop's many loyal customers, who come for the…
The Far Pavilions
10–12 Craigleith Road, Comely Bank,
Edinburgh,
EH4 2DP
There is something reassuring about a long-established restaurant located in the middle of a leafy suburb. Primarily dependent on locals for trade, such places can't afford not to have their main customer base on side. Craigleith's comfortable Far…
La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
The glow from the twin log-fired ovens is the first indication that pizza is taken seriously at this Leith Walk eatery. La Favorita combines the lightest, crispest bases (also available gluten-free) with a long list of both classic and more inventive…
Giovanni's
94 Northfield,
Edinburgh,
EH8 7RU
Trading from the same spot since the mid-1960s, Giovanni's has quietly and steadily built up a customer base that spans from Musselburgh to the Grassmarket, and it's easy to see why. Refurbished in 2000, the menu has since grown, with the traditional…
The GY Chinese Take Out
27 Roseneath Place, Marchmont,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1JD
Nestled in a quiet corner of Marchmont, GY's location has never hindered its popularity. The service is beyond reproach, the food flavoursome and filling and, quite simply, it is quick. Customers can phone in their order and find their food ready and…
Italian Connection
84 Bruntsfield Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HG
This takeaway is a real cheap and cheerful delight in an area where such things are not often appreciated nor expected. With over 20 pizzas on the menu, as well as a wide range of pastas, burgers and side orders, deciding what to have can be difficult.
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…
Kam Po
34 West Preston Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9PY
A relative newcomer to the Edinburgh restaurant scene, Kam Po has set its standards pretty high. With beautifully fresh fare and service so attentive it borders on embarrassing, it's only a matter of time before news of this family-run Southside gem…
Kebab Mahal
7 Nicolson Square,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9BH
It's easy to see why Kebab Mahal has been such a success for almost 30 years, handily placed as it is for student land. It's basically a takeaway with seating for those who fancy eating in, and its relaxed feel perfectly suits a late-night clientele who…
The Khukuri Nepalese Restaurant
8 West Maitland Street,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DS
It would be easy to walk past The Khukuri on a daily basis and not notice it's there. Which is a shame, because this Nepalese restaurant has much to offer. From outside, there's no sign of the seating within, but once you enter, a warm welcome is…
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…
Mya
Unit 9, Commercial Quay, 92 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
Muted beige walls and sleek wooden chairs offer no hint of the colourful cultural influences at work in Mya's kitchen. The dual Thai and north Indian menu seems to have been borne of the idea that groups of potential diners struggle to agree on what to…
Namaste Kathmandu
17–19 Forrest Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QH
In a city with no shortage of Indian restaurants, it would be easy for a new kid on the block to blend into the crowd. Namaste, however, is a very welcome addition to the Edinburgh scene. Combing elements of Indian and Nepalese cuisine, the menu here…
New Edinburgh Rendezvous
10a Queensferry Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4PG
The New Edinburgh Rendezvous is a bit of a misnomer – after all, Edinburgh's oldest Chinese restaurant has been serving up familiar favourites since 1956 (the past five years under the current ownership). With more than 50 years' experience, practice…
Pierinos
11 Bernard Street, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6PW
Fish and chips down by the sea has always been a classic combination, though to be honest, Pierinos would fare just fine wherever it was located. The chips, so often a squidgy let-down, are crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy within. None of the…
The Ping On
26-32 Deanhaugh Street, Stockbridge,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1LY
A handy location, late opening hours and moody atmosphere have allowed Ping On to build up a loyal legion of Stockbridge regulars. At first glance its reputation appears deserved, with its cosy low lighting and tastefully kitsch décor. But although the…
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…
The Raj on the Shore
91 Henderson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6ED
A huge welcoming smile on arrival is the first indication of the kind of cheerful experience that is eating at The Raj. With prices on Sunday to Thursday nights slashed to what they were at the famous curry house back in 1983, rather large smiles appear…
Rapido
77–79 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RJ
The usual chip shop favourites are neatly arrayed in sparkling stainless steel counters, but Rapido's vibrant blue and orange frontage promises – and delivers – more than your average chippy. The wide-ranging menu truly does offer something for…
Ricebox
28 Easter Road,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5RG
One of the best Chinese takeaways in town, Ricebox is the only one to have its own secure online ordering system. Completely financially safe (it doesn't run through any third-party servers), the web ordering service is also exceptionally slick. So now…
