Definitely one of the best Indian places. Make your reservations or be prepared to wait - it's super popular. Make sure you order the cheese nan , masala prawns , chai tea !!

Michelle Connochie

The chilli cheese toast and the chicken ruby are both fantastic! Very tasty food! Highly recommended

Oh my... where to start. Excellent service , infant friendly spaces and the most amazing basmati I’ve ever tasted. Combine it with Sali Boti and you are done with your bucket list for today. AAA+++

Murdo Connochie

Excellent food and drink. You can make a reservation up until 5.45pm. After that, you may have to wait an hour or two.

Cam_in_Bris

Worth the hype. Went for dinner twice in two days. Samosas , chili cheese toast , jackfruit biryani , bhel , dahl makhani, roti , naan , vegetables - all excellent. Cocktail bar has superb, unique menu. Go.

Cam_in_Bris

It does live up to the hype. The bar menu is excellent (which is just as well , given the wait!) I could’ve eaten two serves of the lamb samosas . The house black dahl (dahl Makhani) is flawless.

Ian Giles

Everything! But if you must choose, come for breakfast before 12.

Tristan Comley

The Lamb Biriyani is absolutely amazing... the Mint/Lamb/Spice combo is next level! Gunpowder potato was tasty too. It’s all good though you won’t go wrong!

Sambuka

This place is completely worth the hype and the wait. Had the chicken ruby , naan , basmati rice , and greens. All perfect.

Uday Kumar Umesan

Lovely atmosphere. Great to have a seat at the soft launch. Okra fry, Paneer tikka , Chicken biriyani , Mahi tikka , Chicken ruby are a must try..

Elif Vebiz

We had the best dinner . The food, atmosphere, the decoration, the friendly service everything was fantastic. A bit pricey but totaly worth it.

Kseniya Praksina

Amazing service and delicious food! Cocktails were a bit under expectations, everything else is amazing. Love their interiors and playful music selection

Christina Cheng

We had the best date dinner there, great service and the food can't possibly taste better, good cocktails as well , it's a restaurant I'd give 10/10.

Bhavuk

Great Indian food , excellent customer service. Good choices for vegetarians and very allergy aware staff . House black daal is a must try. Great selection of interesting cocktails .

Sambuka

The shakarkandi chaat . Sweet potatoes , perfect dish. It’s seasonal. If they have it, get it.

J Green

Really crowded on Sundays, make sure to book first! Had a wonderful naan breakfast with a delicious shaved ice for dessert . Worth the visit!

Helen Lawson

Super breakfast , unlimited chai , great atmosphere.

Mrym

Probably the best Indian restaurant in Edinburgh , elegant , good service , better to come with reservation , and don't forget to order Edinburgh chief special ????????

Andrei J

Tasty food and good beer . It might be crowded and a line for dinner , but you have access to the bar until you get a table. It’s worth to wait.

Loloah Alhozami

From what we ordered, I liked the passionfruit sharbat and jackfruit biryani . Abdul the guy who served us was so friendly and helpful ????

Leemor Yuravlivker

This place is a flavor explosion (in the best way). Get the okra fries and bhel . Prawns were wonderful too

Arash Narchi

Portions are small and meant to be shared by ordering lots of dishes. Spice levels are low if you’re used to Actual Indian food but flavours and variety of the dishes are unreal - worth checking out!

Bianca

I love this place. Must try: black dahl , chicken tikka , grilled prawns , chef’s lamb dish . Combined with a tasty cocktail

Cintain 昆遊龍

Spectacular food, nuff said! No matter what you have, try the black daal . Save some room for dessert !

Kian Lavi

Everything here is incredible, including their music . Make sure you look up their playlists on Spotify

Ben Engen

A UK-must and one that never disappoints. I had the Edinburgh chef 's special and it was excellent. Get in here if you can.

Ebru Erkan Ayanoğlu

Great food, excellent helpfull staff .. If you will eat Indian food for the first time, try it here.. you will be a fan❤️

Ersi Charizi

The place is awesome! It probably has better Indian good than India itself! Service was great, and the beer (own IPA ) was super!

Pasquale Gallo

This is at the moment the best Indian restaurant in the city . Truly Bombay experience. A must in Edinburgh

Christoffel Van riet

Food and service are excellent. On top of that they took extra care of our highly sensetive daughter and provided a table off-noice.

M U

The waiting experience was better than London. They have a bar downstairs and it’s quite nice.

Richard Brunton

Chocolate pudding and spiced ice cream is a big surprise. Wonderful food all round from the dips to the mains.

Neeta Chitre-King

Liked the Edinburgh Dishoom better than the London one. Their Jackfruit biryani was interesting...

Leemor Yuravlivker

Amazing flavors. Okra fries , bhel , prawns , mango lassi . Do it.

Sanya Khanna

The Salli Notice is to die for!! And one could be satisfied by just ordering that.

Peter Paul van der Hout

All the food was great. It’s worth the wait, so please do! Staff is friendly as well .
