Absolute great dining experience and was worth the wait. Get there either early or late to avoid the long wait line. If you do have to wait in line they are incredibly courteous and offer complimentary tea or juice. Highly recommend the black dal it is a 10/10 and the lamb samosa really simple dishes packed with a ton of flavor! Another cool highlight is for every meal you order they donate a meal for a meal! Super glad we went and great way to end our trip in Edinburgh! Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £60–70 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We’ve been waiting to come to this renowned restaurant for years. There was a short wait today. The 30 minutes they told us ended up about 10. Everyone was charming, knowledgeable and excellent in every respect. I especially appreciated the allergen menu together with a confirmation from the back of the house that there were no allergen issues with our meal. An exceptional experience all around.

I can tell that this is one of the best Indian restaurants I have been too, food was so delicious, yummy.. what can I say. I will recommend to visit. There was 1 hour wait but I can’t blame them for that, people were waiting in person to have such good food. People must try this whoever is in local.

There are no words to describe how good the food is.....well there are......delicious, fresh ingredients, great tasting! Deliveroo now do takeaway which makes Dishoom the best Indian restaurant and takeaway in Edinburgh. It’s a little bit more expensive than your usual takeaway but worth every penny.
