Lots of vegan food for sharing

Like most Indian restaurants there's plenty of vegan options. This one is tasty and inexpensive which gives it 4 stars in my eyes.

Great Indian food!

The best Indian food I have ever tried. Also funny to have it in tapas form. Perfect for sharing. Many vegan options, all labeled.

Sharing is caring

This is one of the better indian restaurants I've been to in this city. We were a large group, mainly veg adjacent people, and ordered many different dishes. The spice level was alright, and the food was nice. I would recommend ordering different dishes to share as the dishes were relatively small on their own.

Pros: Good variety, Just enough spice

Fine if you're in the area

Our group found this to be a reliable central option without a booking on a Sunday evening when fewer vegan-friendly places seem to be open. There was a good range of flavours across the dishes. The menu could definitely increase its vegan ambitions and vegan labelling was absent from the side dishes.

Pros: Speedy service

Cons: Basement seating a bit cramped and gloomy

Delicious and good price!

Best Indian I’ve had outside India. Portions are small (tapas style) but cheap. We ordered 3 curries rice, popadoms and bread between the two of us, and we were stuffed! I do think you need to double check about the bread to be sure you get vegan cause I think we accidentally ordered stuff with ghee on it. Otherwise it was flawless.
Would love to see a vegan marking next to the vegan dishes on the menu.

Beautiful food, excellent service

Having been to Mother India’s Café in Glasgow, I decided to try out the one in Edinburgh. There were plenty of vegan options. My partner and I opted to share four “tapas” style dishes and each of them were delicious. My favourite was the potato and okra dish. Will definitely be back to try the other vegan dishes on the menu!

Pros: Delicious food , Helpful staff, Tapas style dishes to share

Decent

It’s a few years since I was here but having seen it on HC with no reviews, I thought I would add.
Part of ten small Glasgow chain I used to frequent in my days in the Wild West. Generally like most Indian a decent selection of veggie dishes, done in another India tapas style. Share 3-5 dishes between two depending on how hungry you are.
Good dhal but the aubergine potato was my fav. Vegan options now marked clearly but ask for more jnfo on the breads.

Pros: Tasty

Cons: Edinburgh prices
