Slumdog - Edinburgh

Very good and affordable food, especially for take away. Nice staff and interior as well.

Used to come here for a takeaway all the time many years ago and was always really nice but not as nice as eating in.

Unfortunately not Authentic India Food as I expected. But the food is not too bad. Not oily. We ordered some spicy Chilli Chicken. Adding extra chilli powder is not the way to go spicyAdd extra Green Chillies instead!! Please! Also ordered some Biriyani more like Chicken Pulao but tasted good. Loved the Rotis and Paneer Butter Masala though the currys are too sweet. Cleanliness of utensils could improve a tad bit more along with the decor.

Had been looking forward to trying this place as had heard great reviews but unfortunately very disappointed. Ordered chilli garlic Prawns which did not contain peppers as described and the sauce tasted like chilli ketchup. Squid starter was the most disappointing, the batter was coming off the squid resulting in a congealed sauce which was thick anyway.. Shame about texture as sauce was flavoursome. . The butter chicken was lovely but quite spicy which is surprising as this dish is usually mild, unfortunately no indication of spice level on website otherwise would have asked for spice to be reduced. Placed order over the phone but now wished I placed it on website as they didn't apply correct meal deal, when asked I was advised the butter chicken was not classic curry and therefore not included in deal. Only checked when I returned home and this was one of the dish choices on website for the meal deals. This resulted in over charging me which is bit dishonest.

Good takeaway place for Indian food! We ordered vegetarian food and it tasted good. Prices seemed reasonable compared to restaurants. Collection was quick and efficient. If you don’t want to go nearer to town, the location is very accessible !
