The onion bhajis, crispy on the outside, soft in the middle, added a much needed crunch when used to mop up some extra curry sauce. For us, the true test for any Indian restaurant is the balance of flavours in their curry's, both of which were perfect for our taste! However, after stuffing our faces we could only make our way through half of what we ordered! Thankfully though, The Radhuni's portion sizes were so generous, it meant we could recreate the same experience and enjoy all of those delicious flavours again the next day!

This was the best and spiciest curry I found in Edinburgh…read more It was also had the single best restaurant decor I have EVER seen. The place is literally family-run and they're some of the most hospitable and friendly people in the world. I went on a curry tour of Edinburgh while I was on holiday. I've eaten curry on three continents now and, back home, I like to get my Indian take-away and add both habaneros and ghost pepper hot sauce to it before I eat it. Curry, and especially spicy curry, is very much an essential part of my life. So I picked a new Indian joint each night while I was in the city in an attempt to find it. The Kismot Killer wasn't available at the time I showed up but I was advised by my waiter (one of the coolest, most welcoming guys I've ever met) it's so spicy that it takes away from the actual FLAVOR of the curry, anyway. Let's be honest, there's a point when spicy becomes less about flavor and enjoyment than pure ego. So I got the next spiciest curry on the menu - Vegetable Naga - and asked for IT extra spicy, with rice and chapati. The food was EXCELLENT. The dish, even without modification, was ACTUALLY a fair amount spicy - which, if I can taste a bit of spice, most people probably shouldn't eat it - and the flavors were SO vivid and pleasant. I would've preferred it spicier by a bit but that's okay, it was still the spiciest curry I was able to find in the city and definitely my favourite. Next time I go to Edinburgh I shall be visiting again.

I knew Dishoom had a loyal following before visiting, but I wasn't prepared for just how good it…read morewould be. We stopped in for breakfast and from the moment I looked at the menu, I knew this wasn't your typical brunch spot. As someone who's been sober for over a decade, I genuinely appreciated seeing a thoughtful nonalcoholic drink menu instead of the usual afterthought. Creative, intentional, and every bit as interesting as the cocktail list. Then the food showed up. The breakfast naan sandwich absolutely lived up to the hype. One of those meals where you immediately start thinking about when you can come back and order it again. Everything was packed with flavor, beautifully balanced, and somehow comforting while still feeling completely different from anything I'd had before. Dishoom's breakfast menu has become famous for those naan rolls, and after trying one, I completely understand why. What impressed me most was that nothing felt gimmicky. The concept, the atmosphere, the drinks, and the food all supported one another. Honestly, I'm not aware of anything quite like this in the States. It feels less like going out for breakfast and more like stepping into another city's café culture for a couple of hours. Dishoom was one of the culinary highlights of my trip to Edinburgh, and it'll be one of the first places I return to the next time I'm back in the UK

Dishoom was one of my favorite meals in Edinburgh. We started with the bun maska and masala chai…read morecombo, along with the chili chicken. The bun maska was perfectly drenched in butter, and the chai was hot and comforting. The chili chicken was also really flavorful with the perfect spice level. For our mains, we got the Ruby Chicken and House Black Dal with garlic naan, chili paratha, and a side of plain rice. The Ruby Chicken had a delicious tomato gravy, and the chicken pieces were really soft. The dal was thick and creamy. Everything paired together so well. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself was beautiful, with a Bombay-inspired atmosphere. There's seating both upstairs and downstairs, and while we didn't have any issues, I've heard there can be long wait times. Our server was friendly, although the service felt a little sloppy at times. They also surprised us with complimentary champagne since we were celebrating a special occasion, which was really nice. I found the portions to be a little smaller, and it's definitely on the pricier side, but I think it's worth the splurge. If you're visiting the UK, I'd definitely recommend checking out Dishoom!

Really not great. I would probably go as to far to say the worst Indian restaurant I have ever…read moreeaten at, and I have been to some truly horrendous ones! I came here last month with a couple of friends, against our better judgement as it was completely empty at about 7 in the evening, but we still dined here. The food was really not tasty, I had onion bhaji's to start which were dry and tasteless, and my friends had a selection of kebabs which they said were chewy, and they really looked unappealing. The curries were equally awful. I had the chicken bhuna, which had a super watery sauce, and the chicken was really chewy and stringy, and there was a layer of oil on the whole thing making it taste rank to be honest. The rice was also over cooked and was pretty soggy. To their credit though, the nan bread was tasty was was the best part of the meal - but it would be pretty difficult to mess that up! The meal was really expensive too, with two courses coming to about £17 - really not worth it. I found the staff rude and unhelpful, and overall had a pretty nasty experience. Don't be fooled - just because a restaurant is on the Royal Mile does not mean it is good, I learnt the hard way!

I got chicken kurma which came with barely any chicken and it was tasteless. Also I had to pay an extra £3.60 for rice and £3.65 for naan on top of £13 for the chicken. I've gotten much better Indian food at other places for half the price and I definitely felt ripped off. Also the server took 10 minutes to even say hi to us and never looked in on us but decided cleaning empty tables was more important than current customers. Would definitely not recommend, there are much better options available.

Ever since, we have always ordered from Shapla to celebrate- birthdays, end of term or any little event good enough to get an excuse to get one! Although the restaurant describes itself as serving Bangladeshi cuisine, you will also find Indian and other Asian dishes being served up here. You can order online via their website and the delivery time was about half an hour, which is pretty good. I have been trying to work my way through their menu and there hasn't been one meal where I had finished it feeling dissatisfied, all the meals are full of flavour and are well portioned to ensure that you are full by the end of them.

Last Friday I went over to get some chicken tikka and the gentleman confirmed I was after this and not chicken tikka masala. I'm not big on sauces so minus the masala for me please. After about 10 min wait the takeaway was ready and I unloaded the goodies at home. A small addition of iceberg lettuce with yoghurt sauce came with the chicken - so good, lemony and refreshing. The chicken was very good too, big chunks of tender meat cooked nicely. I had that with some plain boiled rice. Simple but delicious. Happy with this takeaway and if Shapla would operate as a sit in resturant, I would probably have dinner there :)

Unfortunately, it doesn't quite deliver everything it promises. There's no denying that the décor is beautiful - the solid oak furniture and linen tablecloths certainly give the place an upmarket feel, but when main courses are around £10-15 without any rice or naans you would expect something more from the food than it actually delivers. That said, they offer a handful of set banquets for two people which work out at roughly £20 per head including starters right through to main courses, although my friends that I ate there with said that theirs was pretty bland and dull. I wouldn't go as far as saying it was a bad meal, but I haven't been in a mad rush to go back to Voujon since my first visit.

They serve traditional and authentic Indian dishes which are full of flavour. I have had a few of their curry dishes and my favourite is the King Prawn Bhuna which is very tasty and quite spicy but not too much that it ruins your meal. The dishes at Voujon are all very well presented and the foo is reasonably priced, with main meals around £9 and there is an extensive veggie menu available as well. They offer several different types of rice and there is plenty of variety of side dishes to accompany your meal. The decor inside is very authentic and modern whilst the staff have always been very attentive and warm. Voujon also do takeaways and is available for private functions.

And for the various dishes, you can really taste the component ingredients, especially the almond and cashews used in the sauces. So I really wanted to rate this place better, except for a couple of things. The Lamb Chops and the Tandoori Mixed Grill were overdone -- from slightly dry to very dead. And, for the Chicken Tikka Masala and the Lamb Pasanda, the sauces were very sweet. For the Lamb Pasanda in particular, it was sweet enough that I mistook it for a dessert until I came across the chunks of lamb. Hard to really knock them much on the first point since it's all takeaway and maybe there's some extra cooking while the food is sealed in a box, but for the second I would've expected the dishes to be more savory than sweet. Overall, not bad, and potentially really good curries, but maybe too sweet for my taste.
