DAVID BANN REVIEWS

My partner brought me here for our anniversary and the food was absolutely delicious, best food I’ve had! Was so flavoursome would 100% come back for food again we both enjoyed it so much. We had the beetroot cauliflower curry with banana fritters and mash I never knew all this could taste so delicious and the dessert was amazing also highly recommend. Quiet nice atmosphere and lovely decor.

My wife is vegetarian and I’m not. The food was so good we ate here both days we were in Edinburgh. I was simply blown away by the tastes and it’s a lovely relaxing atmosphere. The ravioli starter was one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. The entrees were exceptional and dessert was epic. We highly recommend this restaurant even if your not vegetarian, you need to go.

Great food! great service! Everything was top notch, it's a wonder they don't have a Michelin star. Everything I had was plated beautifully, and tasted beautifully as well.

PARADISE PALMS REVIEWS

Amazing place, really unique bar with a lot of quirkiness. Great customer service and wow what a menu. So glorious to have a full vegan menu as I really struggle sometimes to eat out. The most succulent burger, full of flavour, riblets were delicious and the fries were so moreish. Sad that i don't live in Edinburgh to eat in here every day.

Love coming here! The food is always amazing. My Omni boyfriend loves the food, and me as a vegan, I obviously adore it! Staff are always lovely, and it has the best decor and atmosphere x.

Cool venue, great cocktails and good service. Would recommend the Bucky Daiquiri cocktail.

NOVAPIZZA VEGAN KITCHEN REVIEWS

I was in Edinburgh for a nice solo birthday getaway. I was looking for a place to enjoy my birthday dinner & was looking for somewhere casual, chill with plenty of vegan options. Well, I found just that & it happened to be a fully vegan restaurant. Novapizza is a cozy spot and a great place for a date, small celebration or if you’re like me and enjoy a solo experience. The customer service was on point and the waitress ensured I was looked after all evening. The menu - so many amazing things to choose from and all the food that was coming out looked mouth watering. I got the focaccela romana as a starter, the Carbonara as the main and the tiramisu. Everything was 100% and on point. It was just as good as being in Italy - which is no surprise as it’s run by lovely Italians. Thank you for the lovely experience, I’ll be back for sure!

The pasta is an absolute delight! We found this small restaurant and put in a spontaneous reservation for the same evening. The pasta (spaghetti carbonara and gnocchi) were absolutely delicious, the portions were very generous. The owner was nice and welcoming, it was visible how much she enjoyed her job. Would definitely come back!

We had dinner here on the last night of a short break in Edinburgh. We absolutely loved it! (It was definitely worth a long walk in the rain.) The food and service were both fantastic and the atmosphere was lovely. We are still talking longingly about the pistachio cheesecake and will definitely be going back when we have the chance.
