Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
'Authentic' may be an over-used claim on many menus, but at Chop Chop it's entirely appropriate. Don't be fooled by the garish red and yellow façade: it might look like any other takeaway, but Chop Chop is the real deal. Genuinely charming and…
Thai Lemongrass
40–41 Bruntsfield Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HJ
The entrance to this deceptively large restaurant is via a small reception and bar area where silk-suited waiting staff exude an air of modesty and proficiency. The rust-coloured walls, hessian wallpaper and wood floors evoke a peaceful atmosphere, and…
Mosque Kitchen
Edinburgh Central Mosque, 50 Potterrow,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9BT
Mosque Kitchen is a singular dining experience, satisfying a very diverse clientele from all walks of life, staff and students from the nearby university and Muslim families. It's located in the Southside under a corrugated iron canapé at the back of…
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…
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…
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…
Urban Angel
121 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DJ
More urbane than urban, this bustling Hanover Street basement is an ever-popular choice, and it's easy to see why. With simple prints on the white walls, solid pine furniture and flock-printed menus, the aesthetic lends the restaurant a cool…
Ruan Siam
48 Howe Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TH
In a basement on the corner of the New Town's Howe Street is the flagship of Edinburgh's Ruan Thai trio of restaurants. A cosy little place with vaulted ceilings, carefully chosen spot-lit artworks and charming staff, Ruan Siam succeeds in achieving…
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…
Time 4 Thai
45 North Castle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3BG
In keeping with its image-conscious neighbours on George Street, Time 4 Thai has ditched the familiar adornments of elephants and corpulent Buddhas in favour of slick modern styling in dark wood, glass and muted shades of stone. While this minimalist…
Zest
15 North St Andrew Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1HJ
Although Zest is ostensibly your standard, fairly modern curry house, there are many reasons to recommend it. The service is great – genial but never overbearing. The fact that you can get a late feast here also adds to the appeal: owner Asaddar Ali…
Lai Thai
23 Brougham Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JU
This recently refurbished restaurant has a tranquil feel, with saffron walls, candle-lit tables and Buddhist bric-a-brac creating a warm, contemplative atmosphere. Some tables have been removed, giving diners more elbow room and more space to kick back…
Lancers Brasserie
5 Hamilton Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5BA
Before you've even entered the building, Lancers has you salivating. A wafting aroma somehow manages to snake along Hamilton Place, enticing you in. The attentive staff do an equally good job of making you feel welcome. They also project a confidence…
Thaisanuk
21 Argyle Place (or 112a Gorgie Road),
Edinburgh,
EH9 1JJ
This Marchmont restaurant, and its sister venture on Gorgie Road, mix up well known Thai dishes with aromatic Southeast Asian delicacies. Although their creamy, fragrant tom ka soup is difficult to overlook as a starter, Tibetan chicken wings, Japanese…
Spirit of Thai
44 Grindlay Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AP
Since 2006 this popular restaurant has been treating the West End's office workers and theatre-goers to attractively presented dishes and the friendliest service around. Simply styled, with cream walls and dark wooden beams, the small space has an airy…
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…
Eastern Spices
2 Canonmills Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LF
Eastern Spices has been a popular and reliable pit stop for lovers of Indian takeaway since it opened 11 years ago. The friendly staff manning the smartly appointed outlet will pass the time of day with regulars or warmly welcome a new face. The menu is…
Karen Wong's Chinese Restaurant
107–109 St Leonard's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QY
Slightly off the beaten track, this cute and kitsch wee place is dominated by its eponymous hostess. Whether she is dancing to the 80s power ballad soundtrack (don't worry, the music isn't that loud), or posing for photographs with one of the birthday…
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…
Taste Good
67–71 Slateford Road,
Edinburgh,
EH11 1PR
Taste Good's two-mile delivery radius makes it a popular choice for those willing to wait a little longer to receive something better than their own local takeaway serves up. The menu features much the same dishes as elsewhere, with the likes of…
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…
Rick Shaws
248 Causewayside,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1UU
As it offers no less than Chinese, Thai, Indian and Italian cuisines, one would be excused for suspecting that Rick Shaws has bitten off more than it can chew. Thankfully, for owners Andrew Smith and Richard Munro, quality is all. With a professionally…
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…
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…
India Today
176 Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4PU
Now owned and run by its former chef and his wife, India Today gives you the chance to take a culinary tour of India with a single phone call. Choosing typical dishes from each region of the country, the menu is bewilderingly large, but, thankfully…
The Indian Cavalry Club
22 Coates Crescent,
Edinburgh,
EH3 7AF
This well-established restaurant operates at the top end of the spectrum, giving customers a fine dining experience where nothing is left to chance. The Cavalry Club menu has been lovingly crafted, offering expert advice on which side dish and wine best…
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…
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…
Silver Bowl
311 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
Silver Bowl has established itself as a creative takeaway that uses nothing but fresh ingredients. Although its menu has not changed in some time, it has little need to, as the choices are varied and fire in from all regions of China and Thailand.
The Baked Potato Shop
56 Cockburn Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1PB
Tucked in at the top of Cockburn Street just off the madness of the Royal Mile, this tiny shop is something of an Edinburgh institution. This isn't just any baked potato shop: this is the baked potato shop, taking the humble spud and giving it a series…
Bombay Bicycle Club
6–6a Brougham Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9HW
As this guide went to press, the well-known Bombay Bicycle Club near Tollcross was undergoing a major refurbishment. There are plans to unveil the new look in April or May 2008. For updates contact the restaurant directly or check The List's Eating…
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…
Lanna Thai
32 Bridge Street, Musselburgh,
Edinburgh,
EH21 6AG
This family-run restaurant near the Brunton Theatre in Musselburgh has a committed local clientele that keeps its diminutive dining area busy all year round. Despite the somewhat dated décor, there's an upbeat atmosphere and the staff are friendly and…
Magda
6 Brougham Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9UH
Sparsely decorated and modestly furnished, Magda relies on a large poster of a map of Africa on one wall and the evocative sketch of a dhow inside the menus to set the scene. It could be a place for the adventurous eater to take a less adventurous…
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…
Suruchi
14a Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DH
Suruchi prides itself on representing every corner of India within its expansive menu. So you'll find plenty of paneer – cheese – dishes from the north, Goan king prawn curry from the west, and spicy chicken and fish dishes from the east. The chef has…
Suruchi Too
121 Constitution Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 7AE
Whether you're out partying with a group of friends or looking for a romantic evening for two, Suruchi Too seems to conjure up the right atmosphere. The elegant columned entrance and smart waiting area gives your dining experience a sense of occasion.
Golden Pond
1 Seaforth Terrace, Queesnferry Road,
Edinburgh,
EH4 2BS
Sitting in the dip of Blackhall's Queensferry Road, Golden Pond has gained a favourable reputation over the past 20 years with the locals in Edinburgh's West End. With a few surprises on the typically glossy takeaway and home delivery menu, you'll find…
Ignite
272–274 Morrison Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
Ignite's West End location and surfeit of business diners might explain why its prices sit nearer the top end of the scale for Indian restaurants. But this place offers professional service and hearty food in slick, modern surroundings. The main problem…
Joanna's Cuisine
42 Dalmeny Street, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8RG
Although a little off the beaten track, near the bottom of Leith Walk, Joanna's is well worth the trek. The unassuming frontage belies the quality fare inside, which is all based on owner Joanna Wong's proud advocacy of healthy eating. The simple but…
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…
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…
Ruan Thai
1 Craig's Close, 29 Cockburn Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1BN
If it weren't for the sign propped on the pavement of busy Cockburn Street, you might not even notice the restaurant tucked down Craig's Close. But venture through the door and you'll quickly realise that the only discreet thing about Ruan Thai is its…
Simply Thai
305 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
Leith is heavily populated with Chinese and, increasingly, Thai takeaways, but Simply Thai and its sister restaurant the Silver Bowl are among the best. There's no scrimping on the portions, which are generously meaty with good, fresh vegetables. The…
Topkapi Turkish Kebab House
109 Fountainbridge, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9QG
When Hakki Ciloglo came to Scotland on holiday in the 1970s he spotted a gap in the market and returned in 1982 to open what he claims was the country's first kebab shop. What is certain is that he does have much to boast about. Offering more than just…
Dragon Way
10d/10e Bath Street, Portobello,
Edinburgh,
EH15 1HZ
Dragon Way knows how to make a first impression. Crammed with ornate artefacts imported from China, the larger Southside restaurant includes a huge water feature and gold decorations galore, its sumptuous surroundings bordering on 'ghetto chic'. It's a…
Gandhi's
50 East Fountainbridge,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9BH
Tucked away behind Lothian Road, Gandhi's might be small, but there's no shortage of ambition in this hidden gem. Though the dining space is long and narrow, the clean, modern décor, stylish pale wood furniture and tasteful lighting create an ambience…
Silver Bowl
12 Albert Place, Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5HN
Silver Bowl has established itself as a creative takeaway that uses nothing but fresh ingredients. Although its menu has not changed in some time, it has little need to, as the choices are varied and fire in from all regions of China and Thailand.
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…
