Never judge a book by its cover! Had a table at 9pm and the place was near empty... on a friday... But what can i say.. food was amazing ( except the haggis samosas but not a game changer) Still.. its now become a favorite! Will be going

The visit was great, the staff were very accommodating to my food allergies. Wait time was good until it got busy and then we found we were rushing for our show. We had to ask for dessert menu, we almost cancelled dessert order as it was taking too long and so we paid bill before dessert arriving so we could rush off, this was a real shame as the experience had been great until this point and our whole party enjoyed our food!

I was recommended Passage to India from a work colleague and the food lived up to all my expectations. My starter and main were amazing as was my husband's, definitely the best food I've tasted from an Indian restaurant and reasonable priced too.

Food was excellent only complaint I have is twice I asked for Diet Coke with my drink and twice I was brought coke. Not a biggie in the grand scheme of things but a wee niggle just the same.

Perfect venue for a playhouse visit. Would definitely eat there again. The staff were very helpful when I took a coughing fit and brought water without asking for it. It's touches like that that make the difference.

Food was really good. However, the service was terrible. Initial service there was no issues, for how quiet it was it took a little while for the starters to come out. It then came to our attention that tables who had come in after us were being served before us - another couple we were ok with but when a large table came in they were clearly made priority. Took us asking to be given our main courses. Will not be back, it just felt plain rude if nothing else.

Great menu and excellent service. Enjoyed lamb saag and the mango lassi is highly recommended. Perfect location for pre-theatre supper with family. Now off to see Kinky Boots across the road!

From the out side the restaurant doesn’t look that inviting, but after a chance visit in the summer , we couldn’t wait to come back it’s the best Indian food we have had in a long time and very reasonable priced , we’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Edinburgh

The venue was great, the service was very good, the main course was very nice indeed. all 4 of us finished everything at the main course. The only complaint would be the pakora were extremely well done and just crumbled when trying to eat. Unfortunately we didn't complain which probably was a mistake. they should have however recognised they were not to their usual standard,. We will certainly use the restaurant again but be more open at the time if it happens again Jim

Passage to India was utterly delicious. The menu is quite extensive with clear descriptions for anyone with food allergies or who enjoy less (or more!) spice. We recommend highly.

Great food and service for Friday night supper. King prawn puri was particularly good, as was the tandoori mixed grill. Would highly recommend - great curry in a good location.

We reserved a table to be safe, quickly seated with drinks and food order taken swiftly. Food was very tasty, service was very good, restaurant all clean and tidy. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to friends for a good Indian meal in the centre of Edinburgh. Will definitely be a returning customer.

Great food both veg and meat dishes. Friendly and efficient staff and excellent value. The restaurant is in the city centre providing east access to the theatre and cinema. We took relatives from the Midlands where they have many Indian restaurants nearby and they were impressed!

We were made to feel very welcome the moment we stepped through the door. The service was outstanding and nothing was too much trouble, they ensured the temperature inside was comfortable for us, was a very hot day when we dined here. The food was just as outstanding as the service, very flavourful and cooked to perfection. We ate from the pre-theatre menu and the portion sizes are big and you certainly have more than enough to eat. Highly recommended this restaurant to everyone.

When it comes to Indian food with lots of flavour, I can't see past Passage to India. I come here every year for Valentine's day and was there last night for my birthday. The staff are amazing, attentive and cater for all your needs ( we had a person in our party who was dairy free). You won't be disappointed.

Starter was not cooked properly and no replacement arrived. It was that busy that we had to get our own cutlery between courses. Free drink in compensation.

The food was very tasty and the atmosphere lively on a Saturday night. Despite being short-staffed, the waiting staff were doing their best to keep things moving along, including looking after a few large groups. We enjoyed the dinner and will go again or get a takeaway.

The meal was most delicious. It was real authentic Indian style cooking. I live Indian food and have eaten in different parts of the world and the food here was among the best in the UK. Much better than all London fares.
