Great restaurant offering a mix of Scottish, English, and Arabic dishes. We ordered many plates, and all of them were delicious and special. Most importantly, all the food is halal. I highly recommend visiting!

Great little cafe with an amazing view of Edinburgh Castle. Food was great. My wife and I got the lentil soup which was great. My oldest got the fish and chips which I tested and like and my youngest got fish finger which were fine. Service was friendly and quick. Great little place.
