L'Alba D'Oro
7 Henderson Row, EH3 5DH, Edinburgh
from Keri (18%) on June 28th, 2008 (3 months ago)
I cannot believe I'm writing the first review of this established award-winning place. How did that happen?
The fish and chips are as good as it gets, but when you add battered mushrooms or prawns, you really get the idea that this is a chippy that's a cut above. The staff are nice too.
Let me just say that if I try to explain to someone where I live, all I have to say is opposite the L'Alba D'oro and people say, "Ohhhhh"

La Fontana
1 Howard Street, EH3 5JP, Edinburgh
from Keri (18%) on June 28th, 2008 (3 months ago)
I live in the neighbourhood but didn't visit until I had friends visiting from U.S.
The portions were "Could I have a box?"-sized and the flavour of every dish we ordered was excellent.
It's not fancy, but it's very, very comfy. (And I've been to the pricier Italians "up the road" so I know whereof I speak).

Meadowood Cafe
15 Bread Street, EH3 9AL, Edinburgh
from Ishkhara (36%) on June 25th, 2008 (3 months ago)
Where do I begin? I adore the Meadowwood! I love its informal, cafe style and welcoming atmosphere. The menu is varied, with a number of Taiwanese dishes nestled in amongst Thai and Chinese offerings. The fried chicken soup noodles are my firm favourite - and my inclusion of this fact is probably going to give the game away as to my not-so-secret identity if the staff ever read this! ;)
The dim sum are fantastic: moist little parcels of heaven served in bamboo steamers. The spring rolls are crisp and crunchy. The different varieties of soups, noodle and rice meals are tasty and healthy - I always feel very virtuous having dined here! A special mention has to go to the HUGE juice and smoothie menu: these are amazing. I have recently become addicted to soya milk and pearl milk tea, all thanks to the Meadowwood cafe. :)

96 Dalry Road, EH11 2AX, Edinburgh
from Scott (18%) on June 25th, 2008 (3 months ago)
This popular restaurant is run by the Tersigni family and has been open for nearly three years now. It has a great buzzing atmosphere and the food is delicious and extensive.
It serves superb fish in a wonderful and charming atmosphere. Full of flavour, superb value. Here you can find best quality and quanitity in prefect Italian style.
It is just a great place to be.

Delicious food menu at great prices. Haven't experienced a delay with the food or bad service. Chilled out and unpretentious. Ideal place for drinks or food, day or night.

Arowana
Unit 9, Omni Centre, EH1 3AA, Edinburgh
from Tony (18%) on June 24th, 2008 (3 months ago)
We're regular customers and often order Soft shell crab maki and Barbecued Eel rice. Try out Salmon Sashimi and Golden Dragon Sushi for a taste of heaven. Definitely get Japanese Seaweed Salad. You need to know what to order to get the best, otherwise you're missing out!

A Room in Leith
1c Dock Place, EH6 6LU, Edinburgh
from Nicx (18%) on June 23rd, 2008 (3 months ago)
I don't know what everyone else is complaining about but I have had fantastic meals at A Room in Leith. Yes, the Waterfront was good but this is far better. They continue the theme from their other restaurants, A Room in the West End and A Room in the Town, both of which are also excellent. The food was great, great taste and very well presented and having the BYOB option with just £2 corkage makes the bill so much more gentle on the wallet. With Teuchters Landing next door there to have a pre and post dinner drink makes the whole experience fantastic. I would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant to everyone and in fact, I already have, so 5 stars to you, a perfect place for the perfect evening out (and am sure lunch too).
