    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!

    This restaurant runs like a well oiled machine on behalf of customers! The staff is professional…read morebut friendly & easy at the same time. The food is fantastic! And the service is attentive. It's a beautiful thing to witness, even better to experience. My Negroni order was sent to the bar while my server and I chatted about what I might like. So efficient. I ended up ordering a couple of small plates. A spicy lamb dish and a hot/cold combo of yogurt and mashed hot veggies. Rather quickly my drink was served and a short while later my food appeared. Those small plates were not so small! Loads of food for one, perfect starters for two. Finished with a house chai - delicious!

    I have had several take away meals from Nice & Spicy since it opened recently in 2013. All of the…read moredishes have been very tasty and well cooked. A particular favourite of mine is the Chicken Bhuna Kathi Gosht which has a distinctive and delicious flavour. The menu is quite extensive and includes a number of good chef's specials as well as most of the curry house standards: Madras, Korma, Dansak, Balti etc. The staff are friendly and helpful and the food is ready quite quickly. They can deliver if required though I usually collect. The only negatives I can think of are that some of the curries are a little oily for my taste and that the prices are a bit higher than I would expect. However, the Indian restaurant at the other end of the high street has a similar menu and prices, but Nice & Spicy provides much better quality and value for money. Just what Dunbar needed for quite a while. Recommended!

    Well what can i say really... Food is good, cost is still expensive order for your unborn childs…read more18th birthday because delivery takes a ridiculous amount of time. From the items I've had on the menu I have been fairly pleased with them in terms of taste but often portions are half empty or half full depending on the way you look at it. The price you pay certainly isn't worth the dishes since after the meal you feel like you have hardly ate a thing. Now the main issue Nice & spicy have is their delivery time, enough time to please a woman but to much to please the customers, seriously. Now don't get me wrong I wouldn't expect the food to take 10 minutes like it would at the chip shop but when you get your food an hour after they told you it would be at your house then we have problems. It takes 5 minutes tops to drive along the road from the shop, 10 in maybe the apocalypses but after calling up and being told it would be along shortly to then call up -20- minutes later for them to say it will be along in a few minutes kinda tells the story they never started cooking the food till at least 40 minutes before we got it which would have been 10 minutes after they said it would be with us. This is the point where the person hung up on us, yes the shop hung up on the customer for asking where our food was, no even offering us a discount. There is no excuse for this lateness if the place is busy then why not give a more realistic time rather than purely lying to customers. Would not recommend Nice & spicy to anyone that likes having their food on time. This is not a one time thing either EVERY time without fail they have been late, now understandably you would expect the opening night to be slow, okay fair game, but every single time.... really just really. Personally I have waited in the shop 40 minutes after they said it would be ready to which I got some free poppadoms.. oh good that was totally worth the wait.... If you want to waste time and like waiting on your food then sure give them a call, otherwise I'd HIGHLY suggest driving to Edinburgh and getting an Indian takeaway from there as you will get it and come back faster than ordering local.
