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…
Zucca
15–17 Grindlay Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AX
Zucca, which is situated next door to the Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh's West End, opened in September 2007. The brainchild of Richard Glennie, previously of Santini's, it comprises two very separate areas: on the ground floor there's an easy-going café…
Basement Bar
10a–12a Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RH
Situated below busy Broughton Street, The Basement is a lively little bistro where staff dressed in Hawaiian shirts often greet you at the door. Inside, tall gothic candles and 80s retro décor set the tone of fun, casual dining. The menu, which changes…
Biblos
1 Chambers Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1HR
Located close to the university, Biblos tends to be dominated by members of Edinburgh's student population. The venue has recently undergone a revamp: curtains, comfy armchairs and bright lampshades now lend the space a contemporary, clubby feel. The…
Le Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EA

Calistoga
93 St Leonard's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QY
Calistoga is Edinburgh's only dedicated Californian restaurant. It also has its own wine shop, Sideways, in which curious Chardonnay quaffers can take a personally tutored wine tasting before dinner. There is an astounding range of expertly selected…
La Cantina
72 Commercial Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
When you enter La Cantina, the décor and ambiance leave you in little doubt that you're in a Mexican restaurant. The place is decked out in red and green, and pulses with salsa rhythms. Ranch-style furniture is laid out in rows and there are sombreros…
Cruise
180-188 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1DN
Scotland
Mecca for Glasgow's fashionistas, Cruise is the unrivalled home for those who love to label. Gucci, Prada, D&G, Armani, Fendi, Helmut Lang and Moschino are just a few of the hard hitters you can expect to find tastefully arranged against the backdrop of…
Delizique
70–72 Hyndland Street,
Glasgow,
G11 5PT
No longer just a deli, the gleaming new premises of Delizique now include an in-store bakery, which emits that distinctive, delicious smell. The takeaway food can include dishes such as a puy lentil and oak barrel-aged feta salad, which balances soft…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SU
Colourful, cluttered and slightly chaotic, Empires is richly decorated with ornate wooden panelling, hand-painted ceramics and cascades of mosaic lanterns twinkling overhead. By day it is bright and cheery, offering healthy lunches and herbal teas, but…
Filmhouse Café Bar
88 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9BZ
It is rare thing these days to find a place to eat that truly serves a purpose and functions without pretension, unnecessary frills or ideas above its station. The Filmhouse Bar has fulfilled such a role in Edinburgh for over 20 years, providing a…
Iggs
15 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DR
Now approaching its 20th year, Iggs has become a byword for quality and consistency in Edinburgh's fickle restaurant scene. Where previously the menu meandered from classical Spanish to Scottish fusion, recently it has been reinvigorated by a focus on…
Iglu
2b Jamaica Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6HH
Iglu is a venue that takes its organic, local and ethical food policy very seriously. But don't feel guilty if you need to take a taxi there should you find it hard to locate: it's hidden away from the main drag of the city centre and lurks…
The Orchard
1/2 Howard Place, Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5JZ
The Orchard has done its best to be as accommodating as possible: you can cosy down on the squashy sofas over brunch at the weekends; grab a window table and watch the passing crowds or barfly it at the large central bar. Dark wooden furniture contrasts…
La P'tite Folie
Tudor House, 9 Randolph Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 7TE
Like the best local chains, the two branches of La P'tite Folie seek out and serve quite distinctively different customer bases in their different locations. The West End branch in Randolph Place buzzes with business talk at lunchtime. Its popularity is…
Red Lizard
51 Bell Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NX
On a corner site in the heart of the Merchant City, Red Lizard aims to combine different bar styles. From the drawing room-style drapes at the large windows and chunky leather chesterfields clustered in corners, to the tiger skin above the red-flock…
Sabor Criollo
36 Deanhaugh Street,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1LY
The sign outside says this is a 'Latin American' restaurant. This ensures no breaches of the Trades Description laws when the chef pulls dishes from the likes of Peru, Mexico and Colombia into his specials menu. But at the heart of the place is a…
The Wee Curry Shop
7 Buccleuch Street,
Glasgow,
G3 6SJ
The sentiments of the 'small is beautiful' saying are certainly supported by Glasgow's various Wee Curry Shops. The newest one, opened towards the end of 2007 in Byres Road, is the latest tiny jewel in the crown of the empire of its parent group, Mother…
