Thanks to the team for an amazing dinner for my mum last week. The good was silly delicious ❀️ can't wait to come back and try another of the paneer curries and more of the starter dishes!

The customer service was amazing, but I was surprised at the prices, as I ended up paying 17 pounds just for a lunch. I would have hoped that the main course would include at least rice, as the sauce by itself was already over 10 pounds.

Total avoid. Terrible food - worst Indian food in Edinburgh. Only one waitress, waiting for 20 Mins to get menus. Food was the worst - thaali had nothing what a typical Indian thaali should have and tastes like. Dosa and vada, cooked from 3 days ago it seemed. To top it of all -they were only accepting cash. Absolutely over priced for terrible Indian food and then a big service charge.

Amazing food and the best hospitality in Edinburgh. Must visit place for all the Indian food lovers, Samosa chaat and ginger tea is a must have over here. Ambience and the hospitality has an Indian feel. Will surely visit next time when in Edinburgh.

Have no words to describe how delicious the food was....travelling from Sheffield and decided to give this place a go...so glad we did...we had the chilli cheese dosa and the raj thali bog....so so so good defo will be back...if you are trying the vegan friendly cuisine give this place a go...definitely changed my views and I am a lover of steak!!!

We hadn't been in a very long time due to living abroad, so we're slightly worried it wouldn't be as good as we remembered. We shouldn't have worried. If you're looking for vegan or vegetarian food this is the place. Great tasting food with no 'pretend meat' at all. Just really tasty south Indian food. The aubergine and cauliflower dishes we had as part of the Raj Bhog Thaali were outstanding.

I found the new prices expensive when considering the ambience and the food served (both quality and quantity wise). The thali was alright but frugal. The dosa was so thick that you can almost call it a uttapam. Will not recommend.

No frills but isn't the food nice! I was so pleased to find dosas and thalis on the all vegetarian menu. Not a chicken tikka masala in sight, thank goodness! Nice sambar and chaat starter too. Reasonably priced, but cash only so come prepared!

Quick service, though did need to ask for water 3 times. Food was good and plentiful and enjoyed by all. Nice vegan options.

Vegetarian/Vegan Indian restaurant. The interior is beautiful and clean. Food tastes authentic and just good. Sad thought they failed by giving me a yoghurt dip on my actual vegan menu... But didn't charge the drink on the bill as for their apologies.They have an optional 10% charge on the bill for personnels costs (but why though? We are in a restaurant and of course you have to serve your clients at the tables...?) , but made us pay it by not giving us the chance to decide if we wanted to give a tip or not. Didn't like this act.Still I would recommend that place.
