"I’ve been using this place off and on for a while but my issue previously is that it is inconsistent almost like they have a good chef and they’ve asked some random dude if he fancies a go at cooking on other occasions. Previously I...had chicken that had the texture of wood, it’s was so strange and inedible I googled it and surprisingly it is actually called wood chicken and it can happen to some chicken however they also said it’s easy to detect when cutting the chicken into chunks so I assume to save money they just took the chance on me and took my £38. After this I ordered and it was a decent meal so I ordered again and this time it was a Sunday so they used a generic, tasteless, been reheated again and again sauce and it was not fresh. I took a break and ordered again and it was ok again and then the next time which was last night sums this place up perfectly. I paid £38 again, never asked for the wood chicken refund cuz I was so disgusted I just wanted to forget, this time the chicken tikka jalfrezi I ordered didn’t even fill half the container and it was luminous red!! Unfortunately like a fool I trusted this place would not try and choke me more than once. I had one mouthful of chicken and it was so hot and overwhelmingly disgusting I couldn’t eat it and and I’d tipped over everything! I called the restaurant and the second guy who came to the phone wasn’t keen on replacing the same night as we do live a fair distance from them so he said he would replace just that dish next time we order. I put the phone down and emailed asking for a full refund or a full replacement meal and they simply ignored me sooooooo, my advice is to use Raj Garden in Notley they have been consistent and always use fresh ingredients and cover the exactly the same area as The Ruby with the difference being they wouldn’t ever serve you chicken in purely chilli powder and then refuse to refund you in full. Making me have to go back there after taking my money and nearly choking me to death is pretty low! Plz avoid this place and use Raj Garden."

"this restaurant has long been on my wish list. as Indian and Nepalese cuisine lovers, I have tried almost all kinds of restaurants in edinburgh for this type of kitchen, except that which was closed during its normal working time without saying when it opens the customers again. fortunately, it finally opens again on Saturday afternoon when my sister passed it and noticed. So we decided to eat in the everest right away. / let us go directly with food first. we ordered chicken mama, vegetable corma and mushroom bhaji with simple naan. served as an appetizer after about ten minutes. it was freshly prepared with homemade tasty sauce and tiny ambalate. two of five knödeln seem to have been exposed to fragile pastries with fillings. Nevertheless, the noodles had solid fillings, but honestly we didn't taste a bun in the fillings. in comparison to momo was his beside sauce much more beautiful and tasty. its taste is like homemade, fresh and not hot with coriander on it. / soon we finished our momo, hoping that the waiter can quickly serve the main dishes. it took about ten minutes to find waiter in the restaurant, since at that time no one was on the desk. to the luck, a young man with a nice smile noticed that we finished the starter and came to give us warm big teller for our upcoming main dishes. soon the main dishes after the hot plate were placed on our table to keep curry aromatic and hot. I personally think that the offer of hot teller is very careful because many Indian restaurants have good curries, but they soon become too cold, so the taste deteriorates once curries become cold. / mix them sweet corma is absolutely amazing with generous portion and desicated cocosnuss. it is not creamy, in contrast to traditional creamy corma in some Indian restaurants. I personally think it is one of the best two corma in edinburgh (the other is namaste kathmandu.) the mushroom bhaji is also great and tasty. both main dishes are mild, which are good for us as a spicy intolerant people. yet simple naan relatiw was not very impressive. they were hard to cut and crispy. I am not sure whether they are overcooked by tandoori./ the menu includes a lot of choice options, including traditional Indian and Nepalese dishes. So you're all trying. the everest restaurant has a good job overall for both its service and for its eating. the chef knows exactly what he cooks and culture this kitchen. there were also many customers after we came to the restaurant that were usually regular customers. the young waiter who told us that he worked in the restaurant had particularly good service quality. I would highly recommend this restaurant to Indian and Nepalese cuisine lovers and in any case try other dishes next time."
