Loch Fyne Restaurant
25 Pier Place, EH6 4LP, Edinburgh
from Sally Payne (12%) on May 15th, 2012 (3 days ago)
I have recently eaten at Newhaven Loch Fyne and have been disappointed both times. I used to love eating here but the service has become slower and slower, to the point where we started to time how long it took for two of us to receive each course. The bill, needless to say came very quickly!
There is only one Loch Fyne place to eat and that is the original Oyster Bar at Loch Fyne.

Food For You
189 Morningside Road, EH10 4QP, Edinburgh
from Ally Bain (12%) on May 13th, 2012 (5 days ago)
I have now ordered 8 meals form them and have been collecting there loyalty cards, the food has been very good and the actual menu has a good selection on it.
However, the last time we ordered we were quoted 45 minutes and it took 1 hour and 30 minutes and we were offered no explanation or apology. We ordered yesterday and again yesterday we were quoted 45 minutes and it took 1 hour and 20 minutes to arrive. Again no apology or explanation then to really add insult to injury I then found 2 hairs in my meal, I found this disgusting! Unfortunately as I was due on stage that evening and I was already late due to amount of time they had taken to deliver the food I did not have time to contact them to complain last night but have awoke this morning I feel quite put out by the whole experience and feel it more than reasonable to pass on this experience on to others who may be thinking of using them.

Kasbah
24 Marchmont Road, EH9 1HZ, Edinburgh
from Peter (12%) on May 10th, 2012 (1 week ago)
Every time I walk by this cozy little restaurant, I want to go in. It's a bright little beacon offering up splendid lamb and vegetable dishes, hearty slabs of nan and fragrant rice. The chicken dishes I have had have been ever-so-slightly disappointing, verging on the dry, but I have only tried them twice, and so can't offer up a truly valid opinion of them. Everything else, however, is excellent. There's a reason why, without fail, the two tables in this little joint have faces at them. There's an even better reason why those faces are always turned towards their plates.

Heavens Kitchen
8 Morningside Drive, EH10 5LY, Edinburgh
from Anna (12%) on May 10th, 2012 (1 week ago)
Love this place - just started ordering from here recently. Definitely better than your average takeaway - the sauce for the ribs tastes homemade, fried rice isn't all greasy, and the duck rolls are great - get the duck rolls. Get the ribs too. Get food from here! The guy on the phone is really nice as well. Great place, I'd recommend it to anyone in the area.

Really fresh, really quick, really inexpensive, really helpful. Best Chinese takeaway service I've used in Edinburgh and we've been round a lot!

Chocolate Soup
2 Hunter Square, EH1 1QW, Edinburgh
from Jill (12%) on May 8th, 2012 (1 week ago)
The place was shabby and cramped and straight out of the 90s, and after ordering our drinks we sat down at a cafeteria-style table to wait. The server yelled the name of the drink I had ordered at the counter so I got up to get it, and she barked 'NOT FOR YOU' as I reached out for it. Apparently it was a grave error on my part to not know someone else had ordered the same drink as me just before....
Definitely overrated place. Awful customer service and seems to be for everyone else too. Hope it goes bankrupt.

The Blue Goose
27 Lanark Road, EH14 1TG, Edinburgh
from stuart balfour (12%) on May 7th, 2012 (1 week ago)
Back with five others for a Sunday barbecue on 6th May 2012. Brilliant. Great ambiance, super food, superb band. Shame about the rain later on but the band moved inside to further entertain us. Gerry the owner there as usual watching over proceedings. Totally different experience. Very well executed.
Went back with my partner on the Monday holiday. Had a steak sandwich a la Blue Goose. To die for. Gerry - who supplies your beef? By far the best on this side of Edinburgh. I read a critic mentioning the Caley Sample room in the same breath. You'll be having a laugh then!

Delicious Italian
27a Marchmont Road, EH9 1HY, Edinburgh
from Stewart (12%) on May 7th, 2012 (1 week ago)
Good pizza, but watch the wily owner. He advertises free garlic bread with his pastas (which he'll “forget” to give you at every possibly opportunity..) leaving you in the awkward predicament of having to remind him about it each time, the news of which he often takes rather sullenly as if you’re taking some sort of a liberty in asking!
A similar response is received when you don’t provide the EXACT change, arrive 15 minutes before closing, or correct him on the order which, again, he’ll often “mishear” for the more expensive option.
A shame that these things are allowed to let down otherwise good quality food.

The Castle Arms
6 Johnston Terrace, EH1 2PW, Edinburgh
from Bilbo83 (12%) on May 4th, 2012 (1 week ago)
We were visiting Edinburgh in the beautiful Scottish rain last weekend and went in here for lunch after spending all morning going round the castle. I was starving so plumped for their 16oz t-bone steak - decent value at under £20 and I had a decent pint of Caly 80/- to go with it.
Would recommend - better than lots of the tourist traps on the Royal Mile.
