I ordered take-away for 25 people from Mezbaan, the manager was very helpful and EVERYONE really enjoyed the food...highly recommend this place and will be sure to drop by if I'm ever in Edinburgh. more

I'm so glad we were able to dine at Mezbaan during our brief stay in Edinburgh. The Mango King Prawn Puree appetizer was so delicious - wish we had ordered more than one! The Lamb Roganjosh and Lamb Cafriel with Naan and Saffron Rice were also very good. I also enjoyed the Mango Lassies. The service was most helpful and... more

Friendly, quick service Tasty food, especially the King Prawn Mango Poori appetizer---AMAZING! I'm going to go back and order that as a main! more

What a great spot! As soon as you walk through the door the aromas promise good food and once delivered, promise fulfilled. The service was excellent, the staff all smiles. Food freshly prepared, beautifully served and oh-so-tasty. Great value and with the off license next door, bringing your own is no problem. Reasonable corkage fee as well as good value... more

My bikaneri channa masala tasted amazing which had to do with more than just the peas themselves. My fellow companions were also particularly impressed... more

After living in India and The Middle East we'd developed a liking for South Indian (vegetarian) food and, on a day trip to Edinburgh where we were looking for somewhere interesting for lunch, Mezbaan seemed to fit the bill. Encouraged by the glowing reports on Travel Advisor, we booked a table for 12:30. It didn't turn out too well. Lunch... more

Ok firstly before anyone reads on to the other reviews I think its important to point out to all before going here that this restaurant does not have a license to serve alcohol. (An important fact that would have been good for us to have known in advance of going to celebrate Valentines!) Something I also thought they may have... more
