Takeaway Food in Edinburgh & The Lothians
"Scotland is not especially renowned for its culinary highlights. However, if you are staying in Edinburgh, you will be blessed with a very rich food scene extending much further than Haggis and fish and chips. As every major city, Edinburgh has a very broad and multicultural food scene."

Stylish and impressive, this is a lovely restaurant to go to when you are on a special date – or just whenever you want to feel a little fancy. The menu here is a classy one: think aubergine with miso, seared swordfish, and seafood salad to start with."
"Sushiya is a small, but perfectly formed sushi restaurant which brings a little slice of Tokyo to Edinburgh. The decor is minimalist and stylish, as are the bowls and plates, with the flourish provided by the intricately prepared dishes and garnishes. The food almost looks too good to eat!"
"I was always a big fan of Kanpai on Grindlay St, but their sister restaurant Yamato is my new go-to place. I love Japanese cuisine anyway but they always have Toro Tuna belly which I love."
"This multi award-winning Japanese restaurant and takeaway serves a variety of sushi, tempura, teppan and more. The food is outstanding, and the restaurant's elegant interior and ambience makes it the perfect date night restaurant for sushi lovers. As with all the best restaurants, we advise you to book in advance."
"A post shared by Gavin (@thatnydguy) on Mar 12, 2017 at 6:07am PDT. Simplicity is right at the heart of the philosophy behind Kanpai. This eatery offers diners the three key ingredients of sushi, sake, and tempura."
"Catering for those who are hungry and in a hurry, Soul Sushi offers great-value grab-and-go boxes, nigiri, salads, soups, katsu curries, gyoza and poké bowls, all freshly made daily. The multi-award-winning takeaway’s concept of healthy, affordable Japanese food was inspired by the owner’s travels around Australia. For a real bargain, stop by the Newington shop half an hour before closing, when all remaining food in the chiller is sold with 50% off the price."

"No matter the night of the week, Café Andamiro is always jam packed with people who can’t get enough of their authentic Japanese and Korean dishes. We recommend the Korean spicy ramen, or the bibimbap, but their range of sushi is also worth some exploration. It won’t be easy, but try to save space for dessert – their homemade treats will make you cry real tears of joy."
"In the midst of Stockbridge’s bakeries and thrift shops, the husband-and-wife run Cowan & Sons has steadfastly served the neighborhood for more than 18 years. Distressed white and seafoam-green tiles are keepsakes from the building’s historic roots as a fishmonger's shop; repurposed objects discovered during its restoration were given new life as décor. Mornings offer cappuccinos and other standard coffees, which are brewed from Williams & Johnson Coffee Co. beans; for a little flair, order a matcha or turmeric latte."
"When it first opened in 1997 as Maxi’s, this once off-radar spot was the first coffee shop on Raeburn Place. Rechristened as Cowan and Sons in 2017, the family-owned café was lovingly restored thanks to a grant from Edinburgh heritage bosses, allowing the owners to breathe new life into its tired, historic shopfront. Crossing the threshold, you’ll find original features including distressed green and white tiles from its days as a fishmonger, which previously lay hidden behind plasterwork."
"A post shared by Martin Wishart (@martin_wishart) on Nov 21, 2018 at 12:45am PST. This award-winning restaurant is located in Port of Leith in Edinburgh and it brings modern as well as traditional French cuisine to the locals. Tables decorated with fresh flowers and the cream and mocha color scheme creates the ideal atmosphere for a romantic dinner."
"Restaurant Martin Wishart, Edinburgh|Courtesy of Restaurant Martin Wishart. Edinburgh local Martin Wishart trained under great French masters such as the Roux brothers in his youth. Returning to his home city from France, he was seen as something of a young Turk when he set up a restaurant in the run-down port of Leith in 1999."
"I suggest a late lunch after you explore the charming, cobbled streets of this historic area and experience some street performers, Canongate Kirkyard (Adam Smith is buried here), Dunbar Close, St. Giles Cathedral, and eventually Edinburgh Castle itself, all the way at the top of the Royal Mile (Be sure to book your Edinburgh Castle skip the line tickets in advance). The charm and beauty of Edinburgh, Scotland never cease to amaze me."
