Adhith ShanmugamMarch 8, 2014One of the best Indian restaurants in Scotland.They have typical South Indian dishes which is a must try for the foodies.- ShananNovember 19, 2014THE best Indian restaurant in Edinburgh. It is certainly worth the trip if you are anywhere in Scotland. So many wonderful flavors in each dish! They don't accept credit cards therefore do bring cash.
- MirvettiumJuly 6, 2015Great South Indian restaurant. Very popular so come early. Byo and try their dosai.
Southern Indian cuisine served here which makes for a nice change. My favourite is the Karaikudi curry with a parotta.
Nadia D'OplinterApril 24, 2014BYOB, the food is very tasty and portions are a good size. Nice relaxed atmosphere.
Harriet BusbyDecember 3, 2018Amazing crispy dhosa filled pancakes in a very simple, speedy & authentic Indian. Remember to BYOB.
Bram HubbellOctober 7, 2018Lots of good choices, but it’s nothing special taste wise. I went with idlis and vada combo, but the idlis were denser than they are in South India.
Emma RoeMarch 3, 2012Best Indian Restaurant in Edinburgh - amazing food and lovely staff, real soul food
Jane GamblinAugust 5, 2017Very disappointing, how this place scores so highly on Foursquare I do not know. One dish cold, pathetic amount of rice. Awkward, unbalanced spicing. Slow service. Dirty glasses. Try elsewhere.
- Irfan QureshiFebruary 12, 2017Worst service ever. Took an hour to get our food. Other customers who came after us had eaten and left already. Pathetic and appalling.

"Very tasty food for a very reasonable price. In particular, the pathia, the chasni, the garlic chilli chicken and the pakora were all fantastic!"
