"We booked this restaurant through open table and was disappointed overall. The menu was not the same menu as shown through open table, it was extremely limited. However our party settled on the panko coated aubergine salad, the Cajun burger and the banyan currizza. The salad was enjoyable, the burgers Cajun coating was soggy and the currizza, which came with one of the curries of the day on top of a naan bread and melted mozzarella was cold. We notified one of two members of staff at front of house and this was dealt with straight away and very professionally. The rest of the party had finished eating by the time my dish was returned but it was kindly removed from the bill at the end. For this I would probably return, although it's more of a brunch time place, don't be swayed by the online menu."

"We had a work party at this restaurant on Wednesday night for a group of 30 people. The food was excellent, the service was fantastic, and the atmosphere was great. It was a top night and I definitely recommend this place."

"Food quite good though spicier than expected. Service was terrible. The servers were very pleasant when you could get them but they sat behind the counter or disappeared when they were needed. They would have got a tip if they had been more attentive."

"This is a fantastic place for tapas and wine, with a wonderful atmosphere. The tapas prepared by the Spanish chef Marco are exceptional, and he truly enjoys entertaining guests with his strong Spanish accent while sharing his culinary creativity and passion for food. The wine selection is intriguing and offered at great prices, featuring options from small producers in France, Spain, and Italy. Additionally, it serves as a wine shop where you can taste the wines before making a purchase. Overall, it's a great restaurant and an excellent experience!"

"hidden gem for eating in the center of Edinburgh. large decor and a decent number of sitting, as well as outdoors (for when we get out 1 day summer per year! the drinks are quite reasonable and there is a good selection of beer and weep as well as cocktails. the menu is great, with the option smaller or larger teller. we had the croquettes, steak and rocket and garnel. everything was great, the steak was served pink. the ham croketts were the outstanding court. good place to watch the football results and get rid of the vinuousness of the city center!"

"Essentially we were thrown out of the restaurant shortly after 11pm. The whole meal was rushed and the quality poor. We went to Shish and Mangal after a lengthy discussion about what to eat (as couples do). There were no customers in the restaurant. Upon arrival at 10pm we were told we had to order before 10:30pm because the kitchen closed at that time. This was not a problem as we were both starving. We ordered a beer, bottle of wine, two starters and two main meals. Everything came out in quick succession. It was a little faster than I would have liked between starter and main meals. Halfway through the main meal we were asked to pay so the staff could close the till. We paid to assist, but I was shocked we were asked at that point of the meal. I had to ask for the music to be put back on at one point, as we were sat in silence. At the end of our meal my partner told the waitress his main meal was not very good. She went to the kitchen and came back saying she agreed it wasn’t as good as it should have been. He asked for a refund and was told he couldn’t have one because they had closed the till! He was asked to call in the next day because the waitress didn’t actually work there, she was helping out as a favour?! We of course felt very uncomfortable about this and told the waitress we were not happy to leave without the refund. She told us she had a bus to get and family to get home to, so we needed to leave. There was nothing she could do. We argued our case politely and the waitress was screaming at us. I told the waitress she was very rude. She told us my partner should have complained at the start of his meal and not at the end. Frankly I was flabbergasted by the whole thing. I asked for details about the owner and again the waitress told me she didn’t have this information, except for a first name, because she was asked to help out as a favour but didn’t know who she was working for? The waitress put a cork in our wine and we left about £75 lighter. No refund and with a bad taste in our mouths. Had we been told we needed to be finished and out of the restaurant by a particular time, we would have ordered to take away and saved money having beer and wine at home. We paid a premium for the the experience of sitting in the restaurant and we were made to feel rushed and a problem for the staff. I will not eat here ever again and I am in no way surprised there were no other customers based on my experience. Save your money and eat elsewhere!"

"I made a reservation for myself and my partner at this restaurant on Valentine's Day. When we arrived, a young lady tried to speak to her boss about where we should be seated. However, her boss completely ignored her and took a phone call instead. He was walking around the restaurant on the phone, with the young lady chasing after him, while my partner and I were still standing by the door. We were ignored for about 10 minutes until the phone call ended. The boss then walked over to us and looked us both up and down as if we were worthless. We felt extremely uncomfortable by the disgusting look he gave us and were shocked when he said our table was taken by someone else. We were so embarrassed as we left. He was the rudest man we have ever encountered and I would not recommend anyone dine at this restaurant."

"I used to enjoy this restaurant as a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city and considered myself a regular customer, but unfortunately that is no longer the case. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a woman who was extremely rude and condescending simply because I was a mother with a stroller. It seemed that she was at a managerial level. She was very aggressive in her tone and complained about previous incidents with mother and baby groups and their strollers taking up too much space. This all happened before she even checked our reservation. It turned out that my friend had mistakenly booked for the following day, but she made me feel like I had come on the wrong day and tried to manipulate the situation. When I politely mentioned that I felt her tone was rude, especially since I didn't make the booking, she became even more patronizing and dismissive. It was a shame because the restaurant was almost empty with plenty of space available. I met up with my mom friends outside and we decided to go somewhere else where we were greeted with kindness and given our own space. It's unfortunate that this encounter was so unnecessary, but I wanted to warn other mothers that this woman was not supportive of mothers, so think twice before making a reservation. A mother with a stroller is already dealing with a lot, and even if there is limited space, kindness should still be shown."

"This is my happy place. It's easily my favourite lunch place in Edinburgh. Great if you're on a budget and great for bringing a friend or two as they cater for vegans vegetarians as well as meat-eaters. My go-to is the chicken masala wrap but I'm told the rest of their food is amazing as well. 10to10 is an integral part of my Fringe experience year on year"

"We booked Tangia last minute for a Saturday night meal for a group of friends. We were warmly welcomed and greeted by the Chef/Owner who talked us through the menu and made us feel very welcome. Service was prompt and the food and drink choices were good, the lamb shank was excellent and every dish was very pleasant. We would very happily return."

"I had a wonderful experience dining here for the first time. The menu was outstanding. We started with mussels, frito misto, calamari, and beetroot hummus, which were all fantastic. The main courses were equally delicious: we enjoyed the "burger of burgers," whole plaice, barberry duck, and minted pea risotto. We paired our meal with plenty of wine and topped it off with a raspberry crème brûlée and tawny port. The total came to about £30 per person. The portion sizes were generous, and the service was friendly and attentive. I'm definitely planning to return and bring some friends along!"
Curry • Indian
"The curry here is exceptional, but if you’re looking for a relaxing dining experience, this isn't the place. It was quite loud and chaotic during our visit. The server could have been more patient and attentive, which was disappointing. It’s a shame, because the food is truly fantastic!"

"In Exeter for the weekend and found this great place for a fabulous meal with a good atmosphere and service. Can recommend KuzuShish, the lamb was in large chunks but is so tender and lamb Iskender was brilliant, both dishes were spiced perfectly and we enjoyed it immensely. Also it was good to see local real ale being served! Only wish we lived nearer!"

"I recently visited The Joiner with a large group of colleagues to throw a farewell party for one of our team members. The service, food, drinks, and atmosphere were all excellent. We had a beer pong table set up, which led to some memorable and fun moments. However, I deducted one star because there was only one type of draft beer available and just a barrel of that beer. By the end of the night, we were left with only a few bottles, which was a bit disappointing for our beer pong games. Nonetheless, we will definitely be back, and I would recommend this pub. The prices are reasonable, and they show plenty of sports on their TVs while also playing great music!"

"this is the time I visited the man and the experience this time was not so good. Unfortunately, the waiting staff seemed very unorganized and was not very attentive to the order. the cute, serviettes were not brought out at once, but they went back and forward. one of the party had the gnocchi and when the waiter asked if we wanted something else, i.e. sauces, etc., they demanded a parmesan cheese. the waiter returned to say that we could have parmesan, but it would be an additional fee! I have never visited all the times when I visited restaurants to pay extra for parmesan cheese. we then asked ourselves to talk to the manager who came over and said she had to talk to the cook when she was a temporary manager. I'm not sure what that had to do with a decision whether we had to pay for the parmesan. I pointed out that a member of the party had the fish chips, but at the time of order had demanded that they did not want the mushy or weeping sauce. we would not have expected the price to be reduced! the temporary manager then said she didn't want to argue about it, so would bring a part of the parmesan for no extra cost. I was a little envied, as there should not have been any argument at all, since a small grid parmesan should be free anyway, or the price involved in the cost of the meal!"

"Just visited and eaten at this pub for the first time and I have to say, I was very impressed. The service is quick, efficient and friendly. The food was perfect. I couldn't find fault with it at all. Perfect sized portion and was piping hot when served. I will definitely be returning and would definitely recommend to anyone else."

"After a long day of work with my daughter, who was meeting friends later, we decided to stop for a cheeky glass of wine. We were warmly welcomed by friendly and attentive staff and shown to our reserved table. The staff graciously explained all our menu options, and we ended up ordering a delicious sauvignon blanc and shiraz. We also decided to share a meat and cheese platter with olives, which was absolutely delightful. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a place that pays attention to every detail."
