Hanam's

Hanams was recommended to me by a friend when I was frantically trying to book for a party of 15 that weekend. And I'm so glad he did!

The food at Hanams is good, hearty Kurdish fare - the kebabs are tender and the tashreebs were a winner with many of our party. The staff at this family run restaurant didn't seem fazed at all by having to cook for our rowdy rabble and were friendly and accommodating. As others have said, Hanams is BYOB and they don't charge corkage, which is great for your budget.

After the weekend I e-mailed the restaurant to thank them for their fantastic service and got a lovely e-mail back from our waitress on the night. :)

Hanams certainly get top marks for customer service - on another occasion we happened to accidentally drop in on Kurdish New Year and were greeted with balloons and streamers as the family themselves ate at the next table!

Thai Orchid

5a Johnston Terrace, EH1 2PW, Edinburgh

I absolutely love this restaurant! Where do I start? I only discovered the Thai Orchid last month and already we've eaten there four times. The decor is subtle and the lighting is low, but not so low that you can't read the menu (as I've found in some places!). The menu itself is amazing, with dishes like Tiger Cry sirloin (wow, the flavours!), gorgeous soups, delectable fishcakes and Panang curries which will bring tears to your eyes - and I'm not just talking about the chillies. ;) The mix of spices and flavours are quite unlike anything I've ever experienced before and always leave me hungry for more, in a metaphorical sense! Every time I've eaten at the Thai Orchid I've come away with a warm, satisfied glow and a huge smile on my face.

A special mention goes to the staff at the Thai Orchid, as they're lovely. They're knowledgeable about the dishes, very conscientious about service and they always have a smile for you. :)

We have been dining at Mya restaurant over the years. The food is fantastic it's fresh and full of flavour and friendly service! The prices are very fair as the food is cooked fresh and the portions are generous.

Stockbridge Restaurant

54 St Stephen Street, EH3 5AL, Edinburgh

5 from Robsl1 (12%) on June 8th, 2008 (1 month ago)

Yet another faultless meal at this restaurant. The food was outstanding and the service very attentive but never obtrusive. This is the perfect place for a quite leisurely meal in superb surroundings.

Arowana

Unit 9, Omni Centre, EH1 3AA, Edinburgh

5 from Shalini (19%) on June 7th, 2008 (1 month ago)

Am addicted to the soft shell crab maki- so fresh and gorgeous! Really competitively priced and rapid service. Wouldn't be my choice for a special meal, but before a movie just ticks all the right boxes! MUCH better than the rubbish chinese buffet in the same venue.

Anima

11 Henderson Row, EH3 5DH, Edinburgh

5 from Judy Laws (19%) on June 7th, 2008 (1 month ago)

Great food and great pasta! Fantastic for sitting in when you want a casual light bite! Large portions and decent prices! When food is this good there is nothing to complain about.

Their flame thrower pizza is the best!
