It's the first chippy I'd been in where the photos of the food look exactly like what you'll get. Not tarted up, not airbrushed, just plain old chippy food. But good chippy food. Their chips are excellent. Fish very tasty and not too greasy. They do oven cooked pizza too, and these are very good. (For the traditionalists out there they also do fried pizza). Kebabs also, though I've never tried these. Special fish n' chips and Ben and Jerry's phish food, the complete fish experience! Who needs more?

I can't review their food because it was not ever delivered. Placed an order at 6:20 online…read moreconfirmation said delivery by 7:35. By 8:15 I tried to contact the restaurant and they were unresponsive - the phone would click that it was picked up and immediately was hung back up. This happened when I tried to call again 3 more times. It's now 8:45 at night and still no food and no way to reach the restaurant to resolve this. I'd give 0 stars if I could- don't advertise delivery, take a order and send a confirmation, charge my card then NEVER ACTUALLY DELIVER my food.... oh wait it's now 9:00 and what's that? A knock at the door? Yeah thanks for delivering now I say to which the response is sorry very busy and walked away- I hope the food is better now as leftovers tomorrow than your service... not pleased.

This fish & chips place offers celiac friendly gluten free fish & chips which was music to my ears as I have celiac disease.

Being so close to the sea, Portobello is obviously going to have a fair few fish and chips shops to…read morechoose from and this is a good one to go for and located on Portobello High Street, it is only a couple of hundred metres from the beach front. I have been here twice and the chips are always really tasty and the portions pretty good. The batter on the haddock can be a bit greasy but it provides good value for money. The restaurant itself is very spacious and you get plenty of room to be comfortable in your surroundings if you choose to eat in. The restaurant does not only do fish and chips, but also kebabs, pizzas and baked potatos, so will cater for most people's tastes. The place also offers a delivery service if you can't bring yourself to go there in person.

Having been a long term customer of the nearby St Andrews chip shop, I thought I'd give Carlos a…read moretry tonight as its had some excellent reviews here. When I saw the fish under the lamps, I should have suspected something as it was very light in colour Got it home after a 2 min walk and found the batter was far from crunchy. In fact it was more like a soggy pancake wrapped round the fish. It was sticky and you could stretch it to twice its length! I kinda wish I'd taken some photos - there must be an alternative use for it.... The fish inside was perfect - really nice solid piece of fish, very moist and melted in your mouth. The chips were fairly poor - a bit soggy and fairly greasy but 50% of them were edible My advice for Carlos would be - Reduce the egg in the batter if used and perhaps add some beer to keep it crisp - Ensure the oil is hot enough. I suspect the problems were down to the oil not being fully hot - Dont lay the fish flat on the tray under the heat lamps, stand it up to allow air to circulate to keep it crisp and allow the oil to drain - Avoid the plastic sheet over the fish or the batter will steam while wrapped and go soggy

Rapido is a great little chippy on Broughton Street, I rate it as one of the best in Edinburgh…read more The shop is bright, clean and, surprisingly for a business selling fried food, not at all greasy. They sell all the usual chip shop favourites like fried fish, smoked sausage, haggis, fried pizzas and of course chips. There is also an extensive pizza menu, featuring exciting toppings like gorgonzola and parma ham (believe me, this is exotic for a Scottish chippy!), all of which are freshly made to order on deliciously thin and crispy bases. If you fancy something a little healthier there are baked potatoes, again with lots of fillings to choose from. The counter has a tasty selection of traybakes and I often pop in on my way home from work for a piece of the rocky road, it is gorgeous!

To be fair, it was really busy, but the queue to even place the order seemed to take an age. When I finally did order it then took another five minutes to get it out the shop! This was my only main criticism, however, as their menu is huge with plenty to choose from in the way of traditional suppers, pizzas with just about any topping and plenty of cooked sauces to accompany them. The fish supper cost £4 which was quite reaosnable, considering the fish was good quality, although the chips weren't the best. Rapido serves pretty decent food, just make sure you bring a good, long book with you for the queue.
