The Guru Edinburgh 4-8 Lochrin Buildings, Edinburgh EH3 9NB

"The Guru is hands down one of the best restaurants in Edinburgh! From the moment you step through the doors, you're welcomed with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The decor is modern and stylish, with soft lighting that creates a cozy and intimate ambiance. But let's talk about the food - it's simply outstanding! The menu features a range of North Indian and dishes, all expertly prepared with the freshest ingredients and bursting with flavor. The standout dish for me was the butter chicken - it was so rich and creamy, with just the right amount of spice. The service at The Guru is top-notch as well. Our waiter was friendly and attentive, and he offered great recommendations for dishes and drinks. The drinks menu is also worth exploring, with a fantastic selection of wines, beers, and cocktails. Overall, I can't recommend The Guru enough. Whether you're looking for a romantic date night spot or a place to celebrate a special occasion with friends and family, this restaurant is a must-visit. You won't be disappointed!"

"It was our first time going here and we did check out the reviews and pictures and from what we saw and read we thought we'd give this place a try. We ordered the chicken pakora and seekh kebabs which was decent and for drinks we got mojitos which were also decent and for starters we got butter chicken along with plain boiled rice, now if you know what butter chicken is suppose to look like then you'd know that it's yellowish in colour and creamy and saucy, our butter chicken totally did not look like it was butter chicken and it didn't even taste like butter chicken. As you can see from the pictures attached the "butter chicken" does not look like butter chicken, it just looks like just a normal chicken curry. So all in all it was disappointing the only thing we did enjoy was the chicken pakoras, seekh kebabs and the mojitos. Also what we paid for the food was totally not worth it and just for two people as well."

"Decent curry. Their naan is easily shared as they're big. Only thing to note is that they don't serve alcohol so it's strictly BYOB. There's a co-op nearby but those that love a Beer with their curry, make sure you've packed one."

"Came here on a work outing and they managed to fit in all 14 of us with ease. The 'family naans' were absolutely massive and fed us well: somehow we managed to eat pretty much all of them! My korma was delicious and the perfect size so that I could feel full without overindulging. The staff were also very friendly and they have cool taps in the toilets!"

"Booked this during the week with friends. Love the food I ordered. Afghani charishi gosht along with the gigantic naan. Very tasty. We where last ones out staff was very patient with us. I will be back again withy family. It was lovely to see the owner to come out to say hello."
