"Had to be in Edinburgh on business so went in here on spec. So glad we did!!!!!! Lovely atmosphere friendly, professional staff and the food was freshly made and absolutely delicious. My husband had kofta and I had chicken, we both had rice. There was a large plateful each and a small dish of spinach and one of okra along with a large, fresh, nan. We were stuffed!!!!! It is not overpriced and it is a neat, clean restaurant. A hidden jewel practically next door to the Mosque. Definitely worth a visit and we will certainly make the mile round trip to eat here again. Gorgeous Kurdish Iraqi food. Thank you all at Erbil for a wonderful dining experience."

Chicken came off the bone very easily. Sea bass was great as well

Good was awful! Lamb very tough, greasy, watery sauce. First and last time I will order from Erbil

Decent bistro-style food in a light and airy space. We went during the festival so the restaurant was very busy and the service was not but I can...

very enjoyed our meal here. it was a small family business, and even though they had a personal, they ensured that everything was going as planned, which really impressed us so that we get out and support these companies. we're coming back. View menu

I went there as a Kurdish friend suggested. However, this was a total disappointment. The service was really poor. There was only one staff out of the kitchen and she was literally running as there were quite some people there. The food was not very good either. The rice was soaked with oil and the meat was burnt. But the ice cream was good. Also, I found the quantity insufficient.

the challenge was a pre-show dinner in edinburgh during the fringe. for happiness there is a restaurant for every venue as long as they book in advance, they are spoiled. the show was the red hot chilli pipers in queens hall, so potential locations in the south of the city center were available to my best buddy and me, including my well-rated papilio. but if I had only gone to a restaurant, I would have a very badly populated website and not much to write, so we went for something new.
