Baraka
3-5 Infirmary Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1LT
This Infirmary Street restaurant has undergone several changes of identity in recent years. Now operating under the name of Baraka, the venture appears to be attempting to be all things to all bon viveurs, with a spacious bar-restaurant offering several…
El Barrio
119 Rose Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3DT
Having relocated from its previous West Port location last year, this thriving Latin American bar and restaurant has had a real injection of fresh energy. The small entrance belies the expansive and stylish subterranean space, and the dark décor is…
Bigos
277 Leith Walk, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8PD
With its honest home-cooking, Bigos, the capital's first Polish restaurant, has set the bar high for any competition. Brothers Tadeusz and Dariusz Krzysiak named the place after their national dish (a stew of sauerkraut, meat and mushrooms), and, with…
Brazilian Sensation
117-119 Buccleuch Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9NG
Brazilian Sensation may be of modest size with a laid-back café ambience, but it's a place of unique culinary delights. The lunch menu features a wide selection of hot snacks, organic rolls and baguettes at bargain prices, as well as some invigorating…
Calistoga
93 St Leonard's Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QY
This intimate little space tucked away off the beaten track in the Southside is a unique and entertaining Californian dining experience with plenty of chutzpah and confidence about it. The menu is as forward thinking and eclectic as you might imagine…
Coyaba
113 Buccleuch Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9NG
What better way to blot out a dreich Edinburgh evening than a sojourn to Scotland's first Jamaican restaurant? The bright décor, reggae soundtrack and well-stocked bar with its enticing cocktail selection are easily evocative of paradise, while, for…
Cuba Norte
192 Morrison Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8EB
Despite its inauspicious surroundings and out-of-the-way location on Morrison Street, Cuba Norte offers a lively alternative to the West End's typical dining and after-work drinks venues. A sleek, open bar stretches into a more relaxed bistro-style area…
La Cuchara Negra
3 Grove Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8AF
La Cuchara Negra (the black spoon) has been something of a work in progress since it opened in spring 2006, and with lunchtime trading planned for mid-2007, this tiny Latin American restaurant is showing it has a big heart. There's no trace of a tacky…
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…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SU
It's hard to define Empires, a Turkish café-cum-ceramic shop, but this quirky, chaotic little place has an exotic charm all of its own. Downstairs, an eclectic mix of artworks, wall-hangings, ceramics and trinkets bathe in the glow of colourful…
Hanam's
13a Brougham Street, Tollcross,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JS
A relatively recent addition to Edinburgh's culinary map, Hanam's already commands a loyal following, thanks to proprietor Jamal Ahmed, who works hard to create an authentic Kurdish dining experience. While this extends to dressing in Kurdish costume…
Hanedan
41 West Preston Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9PY
The first thing you see when you step inside this delightful authentic Turkish restaurant is the grinning face of owner and chef Gursel Bahar in his open kitchen, radiating confidence throughout this tight little operation. A handful of tables are…
International Starters
82 Commercial Quay, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
There's a pretty strong clue in the name of this Leith restaurant about what you get on your plate, and that's because this bustling and fun venue has one overriding gimmick: the menu consists entirely of starters or appetisers from around the world.
Khublai Khan Mongolian Barbecue
43 Assembly Street, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 7BQ
Foreign cuisines take many shapes and forms across Edinburgh, but the premise for this one is surely the strangest of all. First, take your 13th century Mongolian warrior's shield, locate a handy campfire, use the shield as a big frying pan then throw…
The Khukuri Nepalese Restaurant
8 West Maitland Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DS
The unprepossessing exterior of this place makes it easy to overlook in the bustling West End and, inside, the narrow and somewhat cramped surroundings do little to raise expectations. There may be an idiosyncratic approach to the interior décor, but…
Laraz
4-6 Lochrin Buildings, Gilmore Place, Tollcross,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9NB
Laraz, on the site of Mr Boni's ice-cream parlour at Tollcross, goes a long way to filling the void left by the closure of that Edinburgh institution. Rustic, desert-coloured walls, elaborate wall hangings and the regular emergence of freshly-baked flat…
Magda
6 Brougham Street, Tollcross,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9UH
A sweet, unassuming little neighbourhood favourite, Magda has captured the hearts of its Tollcross regulars since it opened in early 2006. Even midweek, the restaurant hums along at a nice pace, catering mostly to families and smaller groups. The…
Morocco Restaurant
3a1 Dundas Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6QG
This north African restaurant at the top of Dundas Street recently changed its name from Walima to the more pithy Morocco Restaurant. The new moniker suits the management's aspiration to provide an insight into the country's culture and traditions. The…
Nargile
73 Hanover Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EE
It's easy to walk past Nargile, tucked away as it is on the restaurant-heavy stretch that is North Hanover Street. Once you're ensconced within its warm environs, however, it's worth embracing the Middle Eastern pace of dining, setting aside a whole…
Nile Valley
6 Chapel Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9AY
Due to its location, this unpretentious Sudanese restaurant has been a favourite of impoverished students from Edinburgh University across the road for over a decade, thanks partly to the combination of cheap but cheerful African cuisine and a no…
Phenecia
55-57 West Nicolson Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DB
After two decades in the business, Phenecia has perfected the formula of combining wholesome fare with super-low prices. And its relaxed atmosphere and location, right in the middle of Edinburgh's university quarter, attracts the students in droves. The…
Sabor Criollo
36 Deanhaugh Street, Stockbridge,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1LY
A laid-back little Latino-style basement, Sabor Criollo has built up a loyal following since it opened in 2001 by offering basic fare and decent wines at reasonable prices. Brightly painted walls, quirky, if somewhat cheesy, décor, relaxed background…
Santorini
32c Broughton Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3SB
Having established itself five years ago, this understated, yet confident, Greek restaurant remains a small haven of Mediterranean tranquility among the hustle and bustle of Broughton Street. The whitewashed walls and relaxed attitude immediately bring…
