Curries, biryanis & street food snacks served in a warm, relaxed setting with vaulted ceilings.

This was a really good find. I had tandoori lamb chops then a Saag dish where the spinach was pureed. It was delicious.
My wife and daughter both said their starters and Korma was nice as well. Great service and nice, chilled atmosphere.

A beautiful and welcoming restaurant with a warm atmosphere and very friendly staff. The food was tasty, fresh, and served quickly, which made the whole experience even better. Everything was well-prepared and nicely presented. I really enjoyed my visit and would gladly recommend this place to anyone looking for good food and great service.

I rarely give out 5 stars
But it’s so hard to find authentic food here. They deserve it. It’s authentic, it’s well executed, and honestly, I couldn’t find a thing to complain about with the dosa, it came so quickly too. Absolutely delightful, all the 3 sauces were good too
Tandoori roti was stellar too, very crispy and flavourful enough
Their curries are a lot more mild, the ennai kathirikai was alright, but nowhere near as impressive as their breads
Mango lassi was solid too
Must try
Second visit:
Paneer dosa filling not as good, also, don’t get the main portion, because the starter portion is crispier
Garlic naan strong garlic flavour, not much oil, well executed except that it lacks a bit of body and seasoning on its own

One of the finest Indian restaurants in Edinburgh.
Although they have branches in Glasgow and Stirling, this location stands out for both its exceptional food and outstanding service. Their signature dish — a five-foot-long dosa — was a highlight and an absolute hit with everyone at our table. Highly recommended!

Rishi’s is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the spotlessly clean and inviting atmosphere. The location is fantastic, making it a perfect spot for a delicious meal. The service was incredibly fast and attentive, and every single dish was a testament to the chef’s skill. We ordered the dosa, which was perfectly crispy and flavorful, as well as the Rishi’s special and chole poori, both of which were bursting with authentic Indian flavors. Everything about this restaurant, from the taste of the food to the speed of the service, was top-notch. It’s truly a great Indian restaurant, and I can’t wait to go back!

Today I enjoyed having food here, and I’m very pleased with the quality, taste, quantity, and prices. The dosa is highly recommended, and don’t forget to try the masala tea with their dessert! I’ll definitely go back again, as I could truly taste authentic Indian flavors; unlike many other Indian restaurants in the UK, where the real taste and the creativity in using different spices often get lost in excessive chili.

Best garlic naam bread in my lifetime! Must get more soon. We all had curries which were freshly made and delicious.
Service was excellent with friendly, welcoming and happy staff. Speedy service , no long wait. Just perfect for us all. Thank you, highly recommended and will return.

Authentic South Indian food cooks to order. Tasy and flavourful. Staff is nice but it would be better if they have a smile on the face. Place is calm and relaxed during our visit. Dosa is crispy and delicious with the Chutney. Vegetarian kottu parota is over flavoured but nothing to complain. Chicken fried rice is delicious. Prices are moderate comparing to other places.

We absolutely love Rishi’s, this is our go-to spot for Indian. The food speaks for itself: delicious, fresh, and so flavourful. The portions are incredible and thoughtfully plated. Beyond that, the atmosphere is warm and inviting with tasteful decorating. The staff is so friendly and attentive. Ideally, we love dining in but the food is just as tasty enjoyed at home as a takeaway.
