Ginger Restaurant

Wonderful food – some of the best I've ever had – and good service once she loosens up a bit! She can seem a bit dour to start with...

Excellent wee restaurant, food was fresh and delicious. Staff were pleasant and it's location is great if you are heading to the Festival Theatre, with the added bonus of on street parking right at the door.

Excellent food ,no complaints. Staff polite ,surroundings could do with being looked at ,too bright ,tables cramped together and small with the usual plastic flower! With a bit of care and imagination, ie bigger tables(if we had ordered any more dishes they would not have fitted on the table ) ,tablecloths ,better menus etc this could be a really nice restaurant . Would return again but only because of the food .

We went there for pre-theatre meal. It is very close to Festival theatre which is very convenient. The food was nice and the service was quick. We will come back there.

excellent food. one of the best meals of this type I've had and I've had a few. Small intimate restaurant. Confusion over our booking but courteous staff found us a table.

A small intimate place with fantastic food and a warm welcome. Our starters were beautiful prepared and presented and all four of us had a different one and all agreed they were excellent. A small word of warning here. If you like fast food this is not for you as good gap is left between courses. We had a good chat while the chef put a lot of time and effort into preparing our equally superb main courses. Again we each chose something different so we gave the small but varied menu a good workout. With starters, mains, 2 bottles of wine, beer and soft drinks the bill came to £100, or £25 per head which is very good value in Edinburgh. With a great combination of location, ambience, staff and food I would definitely recommend Ginger. We will certainly be back.

We went to Ginger restaurant on a Groupon voucher on Valentines day and the staff could not have been nicer. They gave us free appetisers and dessert. The food was delicious, especially the chicken tikka. They even gave me a single red rose on leaving. We will definitely go back to eat again.

The chicken momos are heavenly and so is the chai. Took me back to Nepal in a bite. The atmosphere is beautiful and owners are a treat.

We ate here using a voucher we had received as a gift. We were very impressed! Quality of the food was excellent, curries were not greasy at all. Everest beer on tap was great and could not fault the service. We will definitely be back!

The food was passable but we felt that the service was somewhat unfriendly and the atmosphere was not very conducive as the room is very sparse and echoey.

this is a nice wee place, it was quite busy for a Saturday of course, the chutney and poppadoms were lovely, my lamb was excellent, my wifes chicken was just very slightly over and a wee bit chewy, the bread and rice were great, as were the mango lassi's we had. was good and no complaints as such. Will improve once they get up to speed with "Edinburgh" dining... would go again. Cheers. Mr B

We absolutely loved it here. The restaurant set up looks a bit like a cafe so we were a bit sceptical but the reviews we read had been great. The food was amazing. The best Indian meal I have ever had. If we had been visiting Edinburgh for longer we would've booked in again. You won't be disappointed

Great little restaurant. Food was amazing and tasted really authentic. Staff lovely too. Worth a visit. Not very busy and slightly off the beaten track but don't let that put you off.

Food was delicious especially the ginger rice. Starter portion of tandoori king prawns tasted nice but only got two. Service was good but no atmosphere as we were the only two in the place but it was 5.30 on a Wednesday. The place on the whole could do with re decorating as the paint on walls was dirty and scuffed, furniture and flooring has a cheap look.

Food hot and tasty. Quick service and very helpful about squeezing 2 more diners in at the last minute when they were very busy with the Fringe.

Ginger is one of the best places to eat Indian food in Edinburgh. It's a great little place with amazing food, vibes and service. The chicken mo mo is a personal favourite!
