Kalpna

This restaurant was small but was busy when I went. I did not realise it was strictly vegetarian food so I didn't stay to eat.

Wonderful food, service and atmosphere. I love this place. Menu is varied and reasonably priced. My only concern is the quality/cleanliness of the toilets, especially the woman's toilets as the light would not come on.

friendly and prompt service. exceptional vegetarian and vegan food. thali also gives a great way of sampling a lot of different and varied dishes. great service too. thanks.

Lovely Indian vegan food in a relaxing atmosphere. We both had the Vegan Thali,which was a three course meal served altogether on a platter. Excellent service.

I've been to this place for 20 odd years and have had more good experiences than bad . Last night though is the first time we were forgotten about!!! Yep got asked if we wanted anything else or coffee..... er the main meal would be nice!!!! Lol anyway shortly after that the meal came and was very nice as usual.

Delicious food and friendly atmosphere. The only thing that bothered me was the price. I think that place is a little bit expensive. Still I would definately recommend it :)

The food was good but the service was poor. Table booked for 6pm: we arrived at 5.55 and finally received our drinks and starter at 6.25 and our main course at 6.55! They were obviously working flat out but were overwhelmed. A restaurant of this quality should be better organised for busy periods. All we received was a smile and a 'sorry' when we had to rush our meal and leave for another engagement. We have been to Kalpna many times over the years but sadly will think twice before going again. D A S

Great food but slow and unenthusiatic service. A little on the pricey side for a vegetarian only menu but everything was very tasty and cooked well.

The Kalpna experience is consistent..This is a charming place situated in a fascinating part of the City. Excellent, delicious food..fine wine..relaxed , friendly atmosphere...attractive décor.. pleasant serving staff .

It was very good food & service. Table bit cramped with dishes. Our order was not very well explained to begin with as thalis dishes came later than others so bit confusing

Good range of dishes and good value at lunchtime. Service was good despite the restaurant being busy. This is a good place to catch up with former colleagues.

Excellent meal as ever. Best vegetarian food in Edinburgh! And best curry, veggie or not. And now I have to write this to be postable ...

I have dined at Kalpna many times...and each time I enjoy the experience. The food is always delicious; the ambience simple , decorative and unpretentious; the service efficient and unobtrusive. The all vegetarian menus offers memorable tastes an exciting combinations of fresh ingredients. The very best of Indian dining for the discenrning palate

Service wasn't consistent, would be better to have a single server to the table - not worth the 10% service charge automatically added to the bill. Menu seems more limited than before, with skimpy starter portions. Market research gatherer at the end of the meal was intrusive and spoilt the meal.

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Booked for three people originally but phoned another twice to add extra and was accommodated without any problem.

Wonderful food, great service. Plenty of choice and very fairly priced. Good location and good ambience. Would highly recommend Thank you for a great evening

Absolutely diabolical non existent service Seemed to be invisible to staff once initially seated - after 30 minutes we unsurprisingly decided to leave GO ELSEWHERE

This is a small restaurant with interesting decor and a nice atmosphere. The service was adequate and the food acceptable but not exciting or especially tasty. There was too little variety in the dishes, all of which seemed to come with too much cream. I have eaten here many times in the past and enjoyed it thoroughly but this visit was disappointing.

Great food and service. The best Indian restaurant in Edinburgh! The vegan buffet offers a wide range of dishes and I wish I had been more hungry to try them all!

We were pretty much ignored by waiting staff and waited 1 hour for drinks and a menu. We waited a total of 2 hours for some food to arrive at our table. The food was delicious when we eventually got it, the dosa was the best dish I've tasted for a long time! Sadly I won't be going back due to the terrible service, and I wouldn't recommend it to a friend.

Very good food, reasonable prices and attentive service. Could do with a bit more spice in the aubergine achari, but the garlic naan was excellent.

Gorgeous vegetarian curry- tastes authentic. Friendly helpful staff and lovely relaxing atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to go to if you want to experience authentic Indian food.

Lovely food and very good service, only spoilt by a very noisy eater behind me but that wasn't the fault of the restaurant, see they add 10per cent service charge which is a bit cheeky

Superb food ....who would miss meat with this quality of cooking? Everything was delicious ..... the butter dosa masala was absolutely superb. The staff are very warm & welcoming.

Great meal with my student daughter and friend. FirSt time I've been back since 1990 when I was a student myself. 27 years and still a favourite!

Great food and lovely atmosphere. Changed hands last year but standards still very high. Would thoroughly recommend to vegetarians and non veggies alike. Good to see it so busy.

Made a reservation for five thirty following a meeting in Edinburgh and we had some of the best Indian food we had had in a while. We opted for poori and kebab starters, a spinach patty type main ( only two small ones...could have eaten more or bigger ones but the sauce was sensational), Tarka dal, butter paneer, a bhindi dish, coconut rice and a chapati with an Indian beer for my husband completed our order and we received complimentary poppadam and chutneys. For less than £45 this was a fantastic meal and we will be racing back.

Though we haven't eaten at Kalpna for years we were delighted that their highest of standards have been maintained. Delicious dosas as always and faultless service.
