Good food, separate vegan menu

Really enjoyed here - have passed many times, but it’s not obviously an Indian restaurant from the outside!

The vegan menu had plenty of options, including one that included 3 ‘random’ vegan curries and rice. I went for this and it was great, and decent value for central Edinburgh. Inside is really nicely done up too. The meal (without a drink) was about £20 each including tip and I was full enough from lunch not to need dinner 🙂

Caters well to vegans

I have visited several Mowgli restraunts over the years and they have always been consistently great. They offer a separate vegan menu, and they also state when alcoholic drinks are vegan on the drinks menu.

I have tried 3 different dishes, and all have been delicious so far. If I were to recommend two, it would have to be the dahl and the treacle tamarind fries.

The venue also looks beautiful. However, the hard wood seating can be quite uncomfortable.

Terrible Food

There were a decent amount of vegan options, unfortunately they were terrible. We ordered several small plates. One was never delivered and the others were of a quality I could have made with standard ingredients from the supermarket. The waiters were trying their best but the place was loud and hard to make yourself heard. The space itself does look nice though.

It’s ok

Indian food is my favourite and I was so excited to go here.

However something just doesn’t work. We ordered 4 curries and they all had one flavour. One tasted overwhelmingly of mustard, one of pineapple, one of ginger and one of tamarind. There was no subtle complexity, just one dominant flavour.

The service was good, the place is beautiful, lots of choice. I’d try it one more time to give it the benefit of the doubt, with different dishes.

Great vegan menu! Mirrors the main menu - definitely don’t feel you’re missing out. I went with my meat eating daughter and she loved it.
Highly recommend a visit 😀

Pros: Great choice of dishes , Good value for money , Service was fantastic
